She, in fact, opted to ragequit the entire country, so the Wellington event did not go ahead. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/posie-parker-departs-new-zealand-jk-rowling-blasts-protest-as-repellent/LMND5CEKWRBWBE43ISC3IS4QH4/

If anyone's wondering what happened at the event, 1) Nazis turned up to support her. SURPRISE! 2) a large amount of counter-protesters also turned up, decorating the area with pro-trans slogans, and crowding her out of the venue when she tried to hold her rally. Also at one point she was...

An anti-trans activist is coming to NZ after the rally she was at in Melbourne included her supporters throwing Nazi salutes and clashing with counter-protestors https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/131572087/immigration-minister-prefers-antitrans-activist-kelliejay-keenminshull-never-set-foot-in-nz...

Trump is probably trying to clumsily do a build up so he can have the highest ratings for an arrest ever. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/mar/22/trump-wants-to-be-handcuffed-for-court-appearance-in-stormy-daniels-case-sources-say

I forever bear the shame that the whole thing was devised by a New Zealander. Though in the UK, it was heavily pushed by a rich bugger who didn't like that he didn't have enough time to play golf in the evening. Now we may never be rid of it.

Can't pay rent or the janitorial staff or the employees who make the site work, but he can buy huge tracts of land so he can build Elonville.

Sure, but there's a vital difference between her and the immigrants she's trying to stop, and that is that she is extremely rich.

It turns out that due to the agreement when Halli's company was acquired, Musk can't fire him without paying loads of money.

On the upside, the backlash to this news seems to be hurting her chances.

Because apparently he fired everyone who knew how to automatically disable it for people who weren't paying, I guess?

That would not be a good thing, given how much of our infrastructure these days depends on the internet working.

It wasn't already doing that? The first time I was hit with "For You", it had one of Musk's tweets at the top. I have a browser extension that removes "For You" altogether installed now.

Yeah, they made changes to the API, apparently not realizing that their own site uses the API to do esoteric things like "making a tweet". Clearly there was no chance that was going to backfire.

You can basically see where the New Zealand government threw their hands in the air and gave in: There's been no word on vaccinations past the second booster, which was only for certain people (the elderly or health compromised) so I've no idea if we're getting yearly vaccinations or not.
