When I was younger, I became quite known in my country for being an avid backpacker. I was sometimes in the newspapers, with pictures of me on camels or in auto rickshaws.

My grandpa didn’t read a word of English, but when he passed I found a file of every single newspaper clipping about me that he had cut out carefully, in all languages.

I miss that deeply autistic man so much. He used to write my Chinese name all over my bags, umbrellas, anything I would take with me to travel. He collected clocks, and flashlights, and even today when we go to visit him at the columbarium, we still bring little clocks and flashlights and leave it there for him, instead of flowers.

Instead of a pointless, ineffectual, easily-circumvented social media ban for minors that will expose everyone to intrusive personal data harvesting, how about doing something about the very potent drivers of teen anxiety and mental health issues? Maybe we should get serious about making our country a better place for the next generations to live in rather than a set of assets for a handful of billionaires to strip. #NZPol

I'm happy for Karen Attiah and grateful to her for sticking up for what's right at great personal cost.
There are a lot of positive lessons to draw from this. One of the most important is that this is why we need labor unions, and this is why the fascists are so desperate to destroy and disempower them.

@Gargron Same here. Where did 2026 go? But keep your spirits up. Look at your wonderful wife, and you'll know that life is worth living!

We were at a small local historic site yesterday, just before closing, up on the battlements having one of the volunteers tell us about the history of the place when suddenly, on his radio from the volunteers elsewhere:

"John we're going to have to get going asap, we have a casualty requiring urgent transport to hospital..."
(Dramatic pause)
"...hedgehog hospital that is"
