Self-described “gay furry hackers” breached the Heritage Foundation in an attempt to undermine Project 2025, so of course an executive director at the right-wing think tank threatened them as “degenerate perverts” who would face God’s punishment and the FBI.

Not that I know of? I know PF is working on a progressive web app, they just delayed it to boost + audit security and batten down the hatches against CSAM first. So that's at least on the eventual horizon?

"Costello also failed to supply the Ombudsman with information he required for his investigation." That's actually a crime (s30(b) OA via s29 OIA). The penalty is trivial, but a prosecution may encourage les autres.

The reason we hear so much meritocracy propaganda is that it's the only socially acceptable origin story for the people it happend to work out for, could stay in the game longer thanks to generational wealth, or are just pretending to have "made it." You can't grind your way to a just society.

I completely agree with this, but also... Imagine how much great art could have been created if we took a fraction of the money spent on getting computers to make shitty art and gave it to people who needed financial help. People can't create when they're worrying about staying housed and fed.

I think there might be an interesting annual request to each Minister about how many times they have been instructed to apologise by the Ombudsman over an OIA complaint; or how many such letters they've sent.

Sadly, it is not "rare" for Ministers to be told to apologise by the Ombudsman. I got a final decision demanding such an apology today. What's "rare" is the Minister changing their behaviour afterwards.

I really hate that all the outdoor public pools are closed here right now. Wellington has some gorgeous looking public pools that are open right now but they're all indoor. This validates my decision to avoid the indoor ones. No news of others infected *yet* but it just takes one sick selfish jerk.

Listened to Gone By Lunchtime #nzpol pod, and thought even their analysis of the Greens was (as ever) media-pilled. Claims that everyone’s patience has run out after a long process - only political tragics saw this as an urgent matter. To normals, this is just a normal process taking normal time.

I keep thinking of the hellish pressure put on former Broadcasting Minister, Clare Curran, regarding an entry into her Diary. It was relentless. It affected her mental health. She was forced to resign.
Fast forward to Minister Costello: "Meh".
