Has anyone else felt the shift in what news sources are actually available in this country recenly?

Newshub and 3 News folded, half of the NZ Herald articles are only available on a 'premium' subscription, and now even Stuff wants you to create a login to read half of its articles.

In my rage on that last one, I searched the headline of the article I was trying to read, and it came up word-for-word from a Sydney Morning Herald article anyway. Half of their articles are just copied and pasted from elsewhere but they still want you to give up your name, email and phone number to get access.

I know we're a small country. I know news and good journalism doesn't come for free. But honestly, I'm finding it increasingly alarming how few news outlets there are in the country at present.

Where do you guys get your news?

Whaddaya know! Who would have seen that coming?

All those tax breaks for landlords are trickling... up?!? And! There goes my paultry $20 a fortnight tax cut.

Thanks, this government. You are economic savants, but only if that means imbeciles doing exactly the opposite of what we should. I know! Create an economic crisis so I lose my job and can't find another. That'll fix the "mess" we were in last year. 2023 is looking better and better from here.

That is all

I'm feeling disillusioned after being blindsided by a redundancy meeting (private sector - construction) a few days ago.

Life lesson: You can pour your heart and soul into a job for 11 years, build and hold the team together, solve problems, work hard, put your hand up for more responsiblity and training, train others, cover other’s leave, AND STILL get an email out of the blue saying “you're invited to discuss some proposed changes.”

They'll follow legal process and give you the whole bullshit HR speal, reiterate its “just a proposal” (that seems to be very well planned out 🤔) then tell you there's no servence package in your contract beside your notice period…oops 🤷‍♂️).

Same week as they're doing a big push for staff well-being for mental health awareness week. So much for work-family messaging they keep pushing out, right?

Thanks for listening to my rant. I'm ok, just going through the emotions. To others in similar positions out there, you're worthy, and this too shall pass

On the eve of a select committee enquiry into banking, while across the ditch ANZ is being investigated by the regulator, and monopoly watch has called for the break-up of ANZ for manipulating interest rates - suddenly Antonia Watson discovers that Kiwis are doing it tough and hey, what about a capital gains tax?

This is the head of NZ's largest bank who just last year was having a whinge because, and I quote, "I feel like I have to defend our profits."

Pull the other one Antonia. We see what you're up to.

Due to this child’s mother (my daughter) having issues with substance use and addictions, I am Likely taking custody or assume full time cares of my grandchild age 13. He has anger issues and can be disrespectful. I need to set boundaries with him but it’s been awhile since I’ve parented. Please advise your best tips on boundaries for their age. What is considered usual and how to approach that with him. Sorry if I don’t make sense, it’s been a long day.
