In testing my green screen and video editor, I reacted to a video by the Washington Post about #MeToo and disclosure. I thought I’d share my raw honest reflection on the topic. Link below. youtu.be/Um9YUZcS3V0?si…

@kiwiBill1963 @Feebeekiwi It’s clear that the function of state broadcasters isn’t something you comprehend. So there’s no point discussing it further. Have a good day!

@twit_ash @Feebeekiwi Its really simple and that's probably why you don't get it. TVNZ don't pay there way, so why should the Government fund them? Radio Red are loosing listeners. Question is in the 21st century why should the government continue to fund both TVNZ and Radio Red?

This is the correct expression when listening to Winston Peters. Can we keep her on breakfast tv?

@twit_ash @Feebeekiwi Have you ever looked / listened to what they broadcast and if the majority are consuming it, why do they need to pay for it

As an NZ political history buff, I note the speculation about whether it’s in National’s interest to change leader/PM before the election misses some historical context. IIRC, no change of PM between elections has resulted in that party winning the next election. This has been the case since Holyoake replaced Holland just before the 1957 election.

@kiwiBill1963 @Feebeekiwi What evidence do you have that TVNZ and RNZ are heavily biased towards the left? I take it you mean their coverage is left biased? And why is the “majority of people” consuming media needed to justify the existence of a public good?

@twit_ash @Feebeekiwi Umm save money😃. TVNZ are loosing money and there news is heavily biased towards the left as is Radio Red. Why do taxpayers need to pay to fund TV and Radio that the majority of people don't use.

Looking after the collection has been on the back burner lately as life is chaos. The collection has kinda been left to it... Things falling out of pose etc. As a result: This scene has evolved. 1 is traumatised deep smoke, 8 has a stalker, 4 is judging HARD.

@jjj2000nz @MattKingNorth Why would I research someone’s opinion when I don’t even know what their supporting argument is? But, from what I’ve seen, there is no decent argument for refining oil in NZ. No experts seem to think it’s worth it. Not an economic one, anyway.

@twit_ash @MattKingNorth Great question, have you done any research yourself regarding this? There are other fine examples that bleed us dry that are still operating Some we don't even own Our own oil with an accompanying refinery would give us more independence/autonomy but our assets are all but gone

This NZ Labour cabinet were responsible for the single biggest act of economic sabotage in our lifetime allowing the shutdown of the Marsden Point oil refinery.

@PHarvs808 @aworldtraveler2 It’s deceptive and irresponsible. Stop defending sloppy corporate practices. And while you’re at it, stop trying to belittle folks who kick off a conversation on social media.

@twit_ash @aworldtraveler2 Why shouldn't they list it in their catalogue, it gives people choice to buy and watch it. Has nothing to do with not owning the rights to be able to show as part of subscription. Can just click on word Prime on top menu and won't see any vod content. It really ain't that deep

@aworldtraveler2 A simple Google search will give you your answer in the same time it took you to make this post. It's because of rights and licensing with the content. But here's a screenshot to make it easier. It's literally because they don't own the rights to the content. Google exists

@twit_ash @BlackCoffeeSobr @SwipeWright Have you not been around terms like ableist, heteronormative, etc.? They’re unfalsifiable constructs used to render completely normal human interactions problematic by imagining that inconsequential word choices are functions of -imagined- oppressive systems.

🚨NEW: This guy got a PhD for interviewing 8 music therapy professors chosen through "purposive expert sampling" (i.e., completely non-random) and cramming as many woke buzzwords as possible into his dissertation title before reaching the character limit.

@twit_ash @BlackCoffeeSobr @SwipeWright I can recognize it’s nonsense just as you and I would both recognize the nonsense in a paper titled, “systemic discrimination against tall, handsome, athletic, white republican men with inherited wealth shows the oil industry is irredeemably flawed.” See how easy that is?
