All the private jets leaving the super bowl. Paper straws etc

The US is attempting to starve Cuba - more horrific, unprovoked violence inflicted unilaterally and illegally on a sovereign country. Not a word from our Irish politicians who claim they are committed to international law and the UN Charter. progressive.international/wire/2026-02...

Good thing Micheál is heading over to shine Donald's shoes and gift him a bowl of shamrocks as a reward for this

Incredibly sad and depressing

New Banner at Cliftonville yesterday. 😎👍⚽️🇵🇪☘️

🤪😡😤The photo for the profile is actually taken in the home Salisbury that was raided by police yesterday

Apparently the Trump administration now has a ‘MAGA-style slush fund’ to fund far right causes across Europe.

Still the best opening page of a book I've read for a very long time. Still totally encapsulates my thoughts on the state of the world today. wreckingballpress.com/product/drun...

Morning troops. I’ve finally left X. I was hacked, had accounts hijacked, shadow banned, reach restricted, posts on Palestine & Cuba banned etc etc. Here now full time. Vamos! 😎👍

@gallahersblues.bsky.social Morning! My new Social Media home. 😎👍☘️⚽️🇵🇪

Two lovely ladies, tea for two. Birkenhead.

The billionaire tech ownership class are buying the media and then de-funding journalism because they don't like being held accountable.

It's Elmo's birthday

Four months from the start of the 2026 World Cup, ice hockey players from a country that is co-hosting the tournament are so fearful of mistreatment by law enforcement officials of the country that's hosting 75% of the games that they dare not leave their hotel before their game.

Making the self care decision to not listen to this clip because I do not wish to be able to recognise that when someone uses it for a bass drop

Bastard. "The latest release of the Epstein files shows that Mitchell and Epstein had a large number of emails between 2010 and 2013 arranging meetings. In court documents released in 2019, Mitchell was accused of having had sexual intercourse with Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre.".

Sad tale @bigmonsterlove.bsky.social

A sad state of affairs. It should be a moment of celebration, a high point, a reward for people who have worked in and around, and supported soccer in the US for decades. Instead, it will be inaccessible to many because of FIFA and the US govt, and should really be stripped of hosting rights.

Can't believe that after years of both loving Dundela and subscribing to @wsc.co.uk they come to report on a match I wasn't there for! Still, proud as punch for the Wee Duns, the pride of Strandtown.

This moment in history provides us with incontrovertible evidence that all the conservatives who claim to be extremely devoted to freedom of speech and the right to bear arms, and opposed to the encroachment of tyranny, are completely and totally full of shit. It's all white supremacy and greed.

While we're grateful to have this murmuration, we came so close to losing it, & the site remains unprotected in the Local Development Plan. In coming months there'll be a consultation on designating new Sites of Local Nature Conservation Importance, so be sure to respond & protect places like this!

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Here’s a short poem about the power of poetry to change the world.

This is what some Democrats want to keep funding. Hello?

This is remarkable. Essential reading for our troubled times.

"If you don't want it, I know a guy in America who'll take it."

Wrote this in 2017 about the Russia 2018 World Cup and reposted it four years later about Qatar. In 2026, only the names have changed.* Ultimately, nothing makes a difference, but you'll at least know you weren't part of it. theuglygame.wordpress.com/2017/12/01/w...

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

No jail time for Garda who carried out 'terrifying' assault on his wife after family event. The judge suspended the sentence on strict conditions. www.thejournal.ie/trevor-bolge...

"Name like a washerwoman". Classism, misogyny, anti-Irishism all rolled into four words. Hard to do better than that.

"And we now have María on the line who would like to swap a Nobel Peace Prize for the presidency of Venezuela..."

Reminder that in the UK an incoming radical, populist government would have immediate access to immense, unchecked executive power. And the current government is doing nothing to protect us from that.

🔴 Last week the Free Speech Union got a High Court writ to prevent the publication of a list of its donors So we decided to investigate who *does* fund Toby Young's outfit Wanna see? 🫣 New on Democracy for Sale: democracyforsale.substack.com/p/who-funds-...

America, 2026

This always looked like a rather odd Nobel Peace Prize decision Now feels like the whole prize is so devalued it’s probably worth stopping Venezuelan Nobel Peace Prize winner presents her medal to Trump www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Have previously written about this in relation to Haiti and Iran, and the same issues now apply to lots of other teams. FIFA has said World Cup ticket holders will benefit from prioritised US visa appointments, but this process just became even more complicated. bsky.app/profile/jdna...

The Trump administration has suspended US visa processing for 75 countries, including numerous World Cup 2026 qualifiers (underlined) ahead of the tournament co-hosted by the USA this summer.

That first photo is a gut punch. A bunch of heavily armed goons too scared to show their faces bullying a scared kid with the full force of the federal government behind them.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.
