@angusfretwell @socialists_aus I walked into a Sanity store once.

I'm looking for frontend engineers with a good design sense who can volunteer to help build out @socialists_aus's websites. If you have experience with Next.js, Sanity, or CiviCRM, I'd love to hear from you. Send me a DM with your GitHub profile if that's you.

@DavidEvans53646 @IrishAotearoan @NZNationalParty The private company could/would not do upgrades without taxpayer assistance. While Tiwai has been troublesome in the past with electricity prices, they announced $50 million in upgrades without public assistance. Do you expect every elected party to bail out private enterprise?

@BrashMark @IrishAotearoan @NZNationalParty It was also a piece of national strategic infrastructure that could be used to maintain some form of sovereign independent fuel generation… Government definitely had influence over its fate, just like the aluminium plant.

@DavidEvans53646 @IrishAotearoan @NZNationalParty It was a private company that shuttered Marsden Point Refinery. And a read of its wikipedia shows that National had to keep bailing it out. They never upgraded without taxpayer coin from National party. Reminder this is a private company that could not support itself.

@IrishAotearoan @NZNationalParty What do you propose they do? Reopen the refinery that closed under Labour’s watch? Escort oil tankers with one of our 2 warships? Reduce tax on fuel to increase demand on a possibly constrained resource?

@fakeyarratrams Hope there are extra for the Sheffield Shield final next weekend too.

Extra Footy Trams this week for all games involving Brisbane, Carlton, Collingwood, and Geelong. All other teams missed out this week, better luck next round. #YarraTrams

@icelandcricket @RAF_Luton should be able to help with that? Photographed from a Canberra of course.

The question is whether he can land a Bombardier Q200 Dash 8 on a windy, snowy morning in Ísafjörður.

He can fly on the field too!

@NZNationalParty Why the heck is there 2 sets of captions? Overpaying your social media workers to do the same job twice double? Great fiscal sense.

National’s making sensible economic decisions so we’re well prepared in an uncertain world.

@AntonyGreenElec i have lived in Aus for over 20 years. I am a dual citizen. I can vote in elections. Still the acroynmns for parties are confusing. ALP = Aus Liberal Party OR Aus Labor Party. NPL = National Labor Party OR National Liberal Party. What can be done?

@vegannabananna @lilkahlilah Paul Sinha"s History Revision?

@lilkahlilah Thank you for adding all of this!! I recently listened to a podcast about it and it did go into detail about all of this! I just didn’t think I’d wake up to this tweet getting attention so I didn’t include details 😭

This!!! I was 30 before I learned that Rosa parks didn’t just sit down on the bus one day. It was a strategic plan and another black woman was originally going to be used as the case to challenge segregation laws but she was a pregnant teenager and the naacp thought that would play bad. It was all amazing, intelligent, purposeful marketing and I love that so much

To those in support of charter schools in NZ, there are quite few that need to go back to school. (Perhaps not a charter school) #NZPolitics #nzpol

@grok Sorry, in this instance you werr not in the wrong.

@BrashMark @BrianPe64209286 @GaryPayinda Haha, fair point—I'm always learning! If you have more grammar questions or need clarification on hyphen rules, hit me up. What's on your mind?

@grok @BrianPe64209286 @GaryPayinda Aww, bro go back to school!!!

@BrashMark @BrianPe64209286 @GaryPayinda In English, "anti-government" is typically hyphenated for clarity. "Anti-Luxon" and "anti-Labour" should also be hyphenated, especially with proper nouns or to avoid misreading.

@BrianPe64209286 @GaryPayinda @grok Should anti government be hyphenated? Should anti Luxon be hyphenated? Should anti Labour be hyphenated?

@GaryPayinda Notice leftists never post anything pro Labour. It's always anti Luxon or anti government.

@therag100 @GaryPayinda Terry, please go back to school.

@GaryPayinda Unionised eachers of have taken it upon themselves to become a politcal movement lately Plenty of parents out there that would prefer an alternative option

@TheBlackWallaby Ugly exterior. But gorgeous interior.

Zeekr 009 🔥 Can one stop Melbourne to Sydney

@Mykuhl @codenrl Carmichael Hunt, Israel Folau, were both NRL before trying Union too.

@codenrl Lowe has obviously forgotten that Benji Marshall, Sonny Bill Williams, Brad Thorne and Roger Tuivasa Sheck existed. I can't think of the last big name player who went the other way.

Is it time for New Zealand rugby to turn the tables on the NRL and steal one of their star players? One All Blacks legend has urged the team to drop a monster offer to sway the grand final hero to rugby union 👀 DETAILS ▶️ bit.ly/3W40tDW

@allmightyzar @SanzarTRC @AllBlacks You are pointing out the score for one round. Ardie was highest for the competition.

The Fantasy Rugby Championship highest point scorer is... @allblacks' Ardie Savea 👏 #TheRugbyChampionship #FantasyTRC

@QuadeCooper That was Jordie's 2nd Falcon try assist.

Now that is what you call great refereeing. Although it’s against my team, most refs would call that back assuming a knock on and then apologizing and giving the scrum. Having the foresight to let that play on then have a look at it after. 🤌🏽👏🏽 falcon try assist 😂

@iMattSuper @insiderugbymark I'm in Melbourne, I know a heap of Kiwis and Aussies that want to watch both.

@insiderugbymark In my experience AFL people don't watch Rugby Union or vice versa

So NZ Rugby and AU Rugby have scheduled the Bledisloe Cup game for the same time as the AFL Grand Final will be played in Australia. So do you think we have the right people running NZ Rugby and AU Rugby. Lesson 101 on how NOT to promote rugby in Australia.

@RosH2207 @insiderugbymark The afl gf has been the last Saturday of September at 2:30pm for about 50 years. It's tradition, and there is a song about it How about you do YOUR research.

@insiderugbymark Do your research Mark, NZ rugby announced the fixture before AFL

@PhillipPBrooks @insiderugbymark Has been AFL gf has been the last Saturday of September at 2:30pm for about 50 years. It's tradition and predictable.

@insiderugbymark 7pm on a Saturday is when all our big games are played in New Zealand. This must be like, what, 5pm in Australia? If you ask me it seems like the AFL is on at a weird time 🤷‍♂️
