The rise of AI-generated animal videos and images is such a travesty. Animal content has always been one of the best things about the internet and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to tell what’s real

So much to love about Pico waving the Irish flag, not least that he, a proud Irishman of African heritage and as Dublin as can be, embodies the kind of Irishness that the far right can't abide but is a thriving feature in communities across the island.

More than a decade ago, a group of young, internet-connected Belarusian dissidents launched a series of increasingly high-stakes, increasingly surreal confrontations with the corrupt, authoritarian government of Alexander Lukashenka, a man who is often called "the last Soviet dictator." 1/

It's highly unlikely that random shoot-down debris would hit three cultural sites in one night. Moreover, Kyiv's Chornobyl Museum was badly damaged by an non-intercepted Russian cruise missile early on May 24. The museum was definitely the target. It's deliberate.

If / when the time comes that Arsenal can no longer claim to be bound by "not commenting on an ongoing legal issue" and can't hide their silence behind that, there must be open, honest dialog and accountability. Only with that can we BEGIN to wash the stain out of the club.

I'm not sure the Irish understand the damage the recent story of their pumping economic support into Putin's war machine is doing to their reputation in Central/East Europe. The idea of Ireland standing on the side of the oppressed against imperialists is gone, probably forever.

It's now considered "escalatory" to send Tomahawk missiles to a NATO ally separated from Russia by two entire countries. Another reminder that when you make "not upsetting Putin" your North Star you hand him the total veto of endlessly expanding what he claims to find upsetting.

Such awful, awful news. Marjane Satrapi, the author of the four volumes of "Persepolis", one of the greatest of all graphic novels, has "died of sadness" at the age of 56, one year after the death of her beloved husband Mattias Ripa.

That's football. Shit happens. Gabriel? The best player tonight. This said, whoever is rejoicing in the success of a club built on the money of a dictatorship holding together through the systematic exploitation of 90% of its population should take some time to reflect on their world view. Bisous!

It’s an unpopular view but Arsenal’s title is the story of considerable overperformance against wealthier opposition - City’s higher wage bill is the equivalent of more than five Sakas It wasn’t always pretty but it is maximising everything you’ve got www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...
