    The pro-disease crowd will be celebrating the long anticipated return of Mumps. All their hard work is finally paying off in a meaningful way - congrats guys!

    Waikato hadn't had a case since 2012, this year there are 15. Auckland has had 147 cases, compared to 35 last year.

    After the man-lady with the gender-free baby, and the placenta eating, it's nice to see some regular news.

    I can't work out if he is showing dismay that it happened or relief that he was busy and couldn't attend.

    Gynaecologists are warning against a bizarre new trend which sees women inserting glitter-filled capsules into their vaginas, concerned that it could have potentially dangerous side effects.

    An online retailer is selling controversial capsules designed to glitter-bomb your bits, proving that the unicorn trend has officially peaked.

    Essentially created to make your vagina look and taste better – because they’re clearly not fine just as they are - the Pretty Woman Inc website says that the capsules “just enough to make your lover feel that your Yara (water-lady or little butterfly) is what all vaginas are supposed to look, feel and taste like; soft, sweet and magical!"

    Don’t put glitter in your vagina, gynaecologists warn

    Nope, nope, NOPE. Even the thought of a glitter-bombed pussy is inherently disturbing.

    @jegga to be fair maybe she hasn't named half her kids fathers because it's too hard to narrow down the likely suspects from the long list of possibilities

    @jegga What's the saying? If you eat a whole tin of beans you can never be sure which one made you fart. Yes, that's the one.

    She is 33 and has 10 fucking kids? Um, if I was a guy anywhere in her vicinity, I'd be insisting on DNA tests. She's a feral. Somebody rescue those poor babies.

    "[Work and Income] expect us to better ourselves but then put us in this predicament. This sanction is hanging over my head."

    No, honey. You put yourself in this predicament. And of course the government expect you to better yourself, they arent there to fund you pumping out kids cos you can't be bothered going on the pill or getting an injection.

    Fuck, articles like this piss me off. TEN FUCKING KIDS ON THE BENEFIT.

    The only reason for the father not to be named is if there is legal implications eg a restraining order, or domestic violence situation, or the kid is a result of sexual assault.

    Auckland woman Stephanie, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, can't prove the father of five of her 10 children

    the interesting thing there is, if she chose to name some guy, not only is he then required to pay child support, but the poor schmuck then has to get DNA tests to prove he isnt the father (if he isnt)

    So if she cant prove who the father is, there must be a number of suspects/suckers that she cant even narrow it down.

    So many things in that article pissed me off, but another aspect is that stupid woman in it saying the policy is sexist and racist. No, it is not. It's simple economics. Why would the government want to shell out for child support if the father is known?

    A WINZ person said there are provisions for the factors I mentioned above, and you can apply for an exemption.

    Farking Turei saying she didn't name the father of her daughter to protect him from "WINZ harassing him". Harassing? Seriously, telling someone they have to take responsibilty for their own kid is harassment? 🤦♂

    I didn't even need to see the author of this post to know who it was! A reasoned rant - great stuff!

    @Catogrande Ha! Thank you. I think.

    This topic always winds me up. I think of single working mums who do their very best for their kids and ask for nothing more than what the law entitles them to - paid leave, tax credits, working for families, paid parental leave etc. But the DPB or whatever it is called nowadays seems to be wide open for exploitation. And I simply don't agree that those receiving it should be allowed the personal freedom to keep having kids they can't care for, all while expecting the state to hand over more money. It's a shit situation for the poor kids, and they've done nothing to deserve it. And the feral clearly has no remorse for her life choices, or any intention of stopping what she is doing. She just wants more benefit.
