hi recent followers both new and returning from my old twitter: just a heads up, my afterdark was consolidated here, so if you don't have your content settings set to warn/hide adult content, you're going to see sex work and weird porn

Just ignore the polls. Every single poll in the Brazilian election predicted a win for Bolsonaro. Every single one. Give The Greens or Labour your party vote. We can ditch these ghouls. #NZPol

Which parties care? covidaction.nz/en/covidonth...

Look, if all they had changed was just enrolling and voting on polling day that would have been one thing, but stopping enrolling TWO WEEKS before election day is outrageous and even previous Nats who stopped prisoners voting had not taken such an outrageous step We should be angry out loud! #NZPol

Not Chris Luxon making a special vote today after emphasising the time it takes to count them (to quote Chief Electoral Officer Karl Le Quesne, “what slows the process is the growing number of special votes”) and using that as an excuse to unjustifiably limit people’s right to vote 💀 booooo #nzpol

Comm for Azzy Deleted the last post because some stuff on the piece was bothering me, so I changed what I didn’t like and am re-uploading the fixed piece

I want all trans people to know that Erika Hilton is a black transwoman and the most-voted congresswoman in the history of Brazil, with 1.5 millions votes. She campaigned for Lula over the last three weeks. WE TRANS PEOPLE CAN EXIST IN POLITICS. It’s not a dream. It’s already a reality in Brazil!

“The billboard ads were created by the Campaign Company, owned by Taxpayers' Union boss Jordan Williams” Clean up our political system. Get Jordan Williams & his racist Astroturfing disinformation machine out of our Democracy. #nzpol #OneTermGovernment #NZ #Aotearoa #ForAllOfUs

sir

that's the strategy! starve the public services then bring the private sector in to cover the gaps and then, once people are acclimatised to private medical services, shift toward a medicare style system that funnels public money into private healthcare

watch for the nats or act trying to push co-pays in the public health system next

we already do this in the general practice system, the state provides targeted funding and means tested subsidies for privately run care.

Unbelievable loss. An amazing talent, and just a really, really good person. www.instagram.com/p/De8RFy4pyov/

just a reminder that the nappies allegedly causing "hundreds painful infant skin reactions" (via consumerreports.org) are yet another ZURU product from the mowbray billionaires (who are currently getting involved in new zealand's upcoming election: www.webworm.co/elections)

Lulu wondering if anyone has noticed yet that she's a dog

> Te Pāti Māori: Te Pāti Māori rejects the targeting of our Pacific whanaunga and migrant communities from beyond the Pacific. > Based on our own Māori experience of colonisation, we reject Western political attitudes that seek to decide who belongs in Aotearoa, a Pacific country, and who does not.

recalling when tpm praised the sahel states for kicking the french out. that ruled.

RIP Walter Koenig. As a Trekkie from an early age, he was one of my heroes.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Furries always create the best shit In this era of GenAI rotting every industry it tries to invest, furries will always be there lovingly hand-creating wonderful art, music, crafts, stories, and sharing genuine love for the art of creation more than any of these AI failures could ever hope to have

If you create art of any medium, please continue to do so until you burst into stardust, real hand-made art is so important today more than ever Don't ever let these losers tell you AI is the future of art, AI is trash and will always look and feel soulless and corporate, it will never compare

drew @brutalmoose.com rq while watching one of his streams, threw some colour in bc i thought it was cute <3 -colour/no shading and line versions of the moose!

For fucks sake

Quick reminder that Luxon spent a million dollars on an International Investors Summit last year and nobody invested 👍🏽

Its a shame the labour party has forgotten history, and forgotten its roots. They are a right wing party these days, can't even call them center right, they are deep into the blue. from this site: www.politicalcompass.org/nz2026 #nzpol

Don’t let ANYONE tell you you can’t vote! Cast a special vote NO MATTER WHAT. It will then be counted as a disallowed vote and we will be able to see how much this evil government cheated. #nzpol

Election Officials Warn That Ballots Tied To Stray Cat Unlikely To Arrive In Time https://theonion.com/election-officials-warn-that-ballots-tied-to-stray-cat-unlikely-to-arrive-in-time/

Bingus has feline asthma :(( any advice appreciated from anyone else who has a kitty with this. He's not even 3 yet 😞 my precious baby.. precious expensive baby...

saw this piggy bank at a local ceramic artist's booth and it brought me to my knees

Last week, I moved an amendment to change our maximum average rates increase from the rates cap of 4% to 6%. It lost and Labour voted against. Rates capping doesn’t come in until 2029, but WCC planning to comply in 2027. Cost of living is a big concern but there are alternatives to “nasty” cuts. 1/3

Many other councils are planning to get there over three years, in a 6/5/4 split. If we can get there sooner without hurting our infrastructure and communities, that’s fine - but we need time and room 2/3

The PSA notes rates caps will not save residents money, that they just create an infrastructure and fiscal gap. The sooner we comply the bigger the gap www.psa.org.nz/news-media/t... 3/3

It was Ani o’brien who first posted the video of Orini et al with the gangs. Why did no news media mention this? Did anyone read Nicky Hager’s book? #nzpol

Chippy shoot’s himself in the foot and then celebrates his own loss… luckily for us Māori we win either way. No more Labour empty promises for Tāmaki Makaurau!!! 🖕🏾🍟 #nzpol

Everyone write to the Governor General with concerns about voter suppression share.google/fP5VFvuhL6lf... #nzpol

It's time for you to get to know your 2026 Jingle Jam charities - starting with @specialeffect.org.uk, who we're so glad to welcome back to Jingle Jam this year. With your donations, they'll be able to continue to level the playing field for physically disabled gamers across the world.

My last video has some nice frames from the render. :) #LowPolyKnights #IndieAnimation

This is why I hate the “it has to be subtle!!!” Critique of queer media. The fact that we can’t just say what we are or what the character is is so reductive and constraining to so many queer writers. Don’t let cis people dictate how you show you identity. They don’t know what they’re saying.
