The fact there is nowhere to stream Hacks (from Season 1) in New Zealand feels homophobic

Probably a good thing Spotify wrapped has already collected all of its data or my reignited Wicked obsession would be exposed

Zephyr Cafe in Tākina chose close for the day in solidarity with our trans whānau during the Inflection Point event, and is now is being bombarded with negative reviews from TERFs/transphobes. If you are able, please leave them a positive Google review and show support 🩵🩷🩵🏳️‍⚧️

New Zealand's media landscape is poorer for this decision. The people at Newshub do brilliant work each night, which was a key motivator to working hard across the aisle at TVNZ. Competition is important and makes for better journalism all round. nzherald.co.nz/business/medi…

My very clever and cool friend EJ wrote about why bike lanes can benefit people with disabilities. Check out what they wrote on @TheSpinoffTV thespinoff.co.nz/society/24-…
I use a wheelchair and I want more bike lanes | The Spinoff

I use a wheelchair and I want more bike lanes | The Spinoff

This may come as a shock, but disabled people who use transport care about more than just car parks.

Many people diminish the role of communication in leadership as fluffy, vapid, and a facade to hide shortcomings. Nothing proves that to be a bullshit view than this press conference. We need effective communicators in these roles. – at Auckland, New Zealand

I usually let poor grammar slide, and when people ask about plans for “New Years” I let it go…but I can’t stay quiet any longer. “Happy New Years” is a crime against grammar and must be stopped!

Heartbreaking to hear of the death of Grant Wahl. A talented journalist, Grant was an advocate for the LGBTQ community & a prominent voice for women's soccer. He used his platform to elevate those whose stories needed telling. Prayers for his family. latimes.com/sports/soccer/st…

It takes mammoth courage for an Iranian woman to do this in public. The Iranian regime is deeply homophobic and severely punishes any calls for equal rights for minorities, including LGBTQ+ rights. It routinely kills and jails gay Iranians.

“Women, Life, Freedom”: young person holds up the Pride flag in Iran’s norther city of Amol. The exact date is not clear. #LGBTQ identity and queer love is criminalised in Iran’s Islamic penal code and are punishable with death. #مهسا_امینی #اعتصابات_سراسری
