NZ Problem #184
I cannot confidently say which one of these men is the Prime Minister
one of these men is still the Prime Minister
the amount of lawsuits these exploited children are going to be filing 20 years from now is going to be crazy and im all for it
Hey, donât cry. Free online database of Japanese folk lore
Might I add, free database of mostly European folklore and myths
A Book of Creatures by @a-book-of-creatures doesn't update these days but is another thing along these lines, really huge, fully illustrated all by the author and cites all sources
I think you guys constantly undermine the exploitation and colonial abuse that Hawaiʻi and Polynesia endures. i promise you indigenous polynesians aren't focused on being excited about representation in the live action moana they're much more concerned by the disney tourism propaganda they've been constantly pushing in their slop movies
Reminder for all kiwis, today is the last day to make submissions on three very relevant bills. Even just commenting "I reject the bill" will make a tangible difference.
These are:
The Definitions of Woman and Man Amendment Bill.
Make a submission urging officials to reject the bill here.
This bill attempts to restrict the definitions of man and woman to "adult male human" and "adult female human". This has devastating implications on our queer community, and our safety. It also impacts those who can access abortions (potentially preventing children and teenagers from accessing abortions when they need it.) Instead, urge the Government to enshrine more protections for our intersex, transgender, and takatÄpui communities.
The Conservation Bill.
Make a submission urging officials to reject the bill here.
This bill attempts to allow private sales of conservation land, potentially up to 60% of Aotearoa's conservation land would be available for private purchase. This will be devastating for our conservation efforts. Instead, urge for more protections of our conservation land.
Move On Orders Amendment Bill
Make a submission urging officials to reject the bill here.
This bill will allow persecution of unhoused and homeless people across Aotearoa. It allows the penalization of 'disorderly and disruptive behaviour', which includes: unreasonably obstructing entry to a trade or business, breaching the peace, begging, rough sleeping, or indicating an intent to inhabit a public place. This is a direct attack on vulnerable people, with the additional punishment of potential jail time and <$2000 fine. Instead, urge the government to fix the infrastructure perpetuating homelessness, such as lack of government housing and the cost of living crisis.
edit: submissions for the Conservation Bill has been extended for 10 days, but the point still stands! It only takes a couple of minutes, and it has an impact on Aotearoa's, and your, future!
This website makes it super easy to do your submission!
The government is rushing nine stink bills through Parliament. Yeah Nah builds you a personalised submission on every one - quicker than a c
the central conceit of white boy "comedy rap" genres is that they're too racist to recognise that most classic rap is already pretty humorous in many ways, on account of wordplay being fundamental to the form,
and also steeped in pop culture from the very beginning, like the rap scene was already making music about comics and anime and video games you don't need to segregate a new genre for that
Tumblr users will say "queer history" and mean "midcentury archival records from a specific US-American city that I have extrapolated into a universal mythos" and not even blink
"learn your queer history" I am from fucking INDIA
Maybe your queer elders fictional or otherwise were also influenced by the biases and contradictions of their own circumstances, time and place, and I am no more beholden to their ideas and ways of doing things than I am to any other form of tradition trying to constrain me.
Perhaps history is a conversation and not an edict.
I fucking snortled
Queer history such as: The interpersonal grievance I had five years ago with someone whose social media reach never broke into quadruple digits, but it felt super important at the time
sometimes a post is making a good point but then they pull out a highly specific statistic with zero source and an arrogant attitude when questioned and i really just cannot bring myself to reblog it
i also think that people in general should be less defensive when asked for a source for their claims. itâs not always because i doubt you, i promise. often times, i just see a claim i have never heard before and i want to know more. but if you ask for a source people immediatly think that youâre calling them a liar or whatever when, in my opinion, itâs common sense that if you make a strong claim with supposed evidence, especially if you are referencing specific studies, you should cite it. if you make a strong claim and are angry that people ask you to back it up, that leads people to believe that what youâre saying might not be true. crazy, i know
this trend of shitting on peer-reviewed academic studies in favor of tweeting âwe already knew this was happeningâ is so soul-crushing. not to be an elitist cunt, but we have got to open the schools again. people genuinely seem to have forgotten that their personal lived experience isnât indicative of the larger population, AND IF IT ISâŠâŠ then you need researchers to support these assertions from a relevant data pool instead of a blog post from 2013 đ
white people will literally be like if u arent nice to me Im going to become a nazi. and think theyâre making a great argument
this stupid shit has been around for so long and itâs crazy to me there are still people with enough rocks in their brain to believe it. âOughhhhh if you arenât nice to you oppressors theyâll become bigots instead of alliesâ if someoneâs support for marginalized groups hinges entirely on whether or not that group is niceys, theyâre by definition not effective or useful allies and, by admission of this argument, an active danger to the communities theyre supposed to be allied with because they can Enter Bigot Mode the second they become displease

Indigenous peoples of the great plains should've never told white people about tornadoes. "I don't know man that shit never happened before you showed up"
hi trans kiwis and friends. if you haven't seen the news, they're trying to pass a frankly insidious bill in aotearoa to define the terms 'man' and 'woman' based on biological sex. this unsurprisingly reflects a lot of similar cruel efforts happening overseas at the moment. IT HASN'T PASSED YET, but I figured I should speak up about it because this is happening as we speak.
(screenshot from the linked RNZ article)
it seems very fucking bleak!!!! please don't lose hope! it hasn't passed yet and a lot of the shoddy bills suggested by the coalition have been shot down already. it's still worth knowing about. you don't have to share this post if you don't want to. I just know that a lot of my followers are kiwi. if there are any updates as to what we can do to push back against this, I'll make a relevant addition. kia kaha, okay? love you all.
i wish there was a way to say "you're right, but this is really ineffective and even counterproductive messaging to anyone who doesn't already agree with you" without sounding like an asshole
