PabloReports: Who do you think Trump should fire next? AOC: Is he out of women? Trump only seems to have the capability to fire female secretaries. If you’re a man in the Trump administration, it seems that they reward misconduct.

finally some real culture

i don't want true crime, i want an explosive 10 part series on what the fuck is going on in the middle of this song

I am absolutely shite at recognising when someone is flirting with me. Like, comically bad at it. My mates would mock me about it. But something happened today that made me so happy. 1/?

“Disinformation has become an industry. An outrage economy, organized around a division dividend, which allows people to profit from division, and poison.” — London Mayor @sadiqkhanlondon.bsky.social. Every credible mayor & urban leader needs to be talking about this and taking action. #UrbanTruth

Bet you didn’t need this video of Jason Ritter in the Spirit Tunnel today. I was not aware of this man’s game and now the whole tunnel is pregnant.

The Economist gets it. Look around at US media & elites. Do they seem to get it? Do markets seem to get it?

I may as well reshare it myself 😇

An rud is annamh is iontach! After a series of long, bad-tempered meetings on the dlr Development Plan variation, it’s lovely to be home, watching the latest #taskmaster, shooting the breeze on study (too early apparently 😳), dog walking (dog not the most enthusiastic 🐾), and wind (ruining my swim🌊)

Mad to think we're foregoing shy of a billion euro a year to excise duty and VAT on jet fuel.

I would snort this picture from a toilet seat.

Id say a bigger threat to food security is the fact that one farmer supplies 70% of all broccoli grown in Ireland.

‘For Nicola Barker honesty takes many forms. It’s fine to be direct when directness is what’s called for. Driving her occasionally topical concerns – the Channel Tunnel, Blaine’s stunt, social media – is a potent spiritual vision.’ Leo Robson on Barker’s novels. www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

‘In most of the work, Nicola Barker hasn’t been an obviously religious writer. The surface of her prose is less pensive than in-your-face: her books teem with puns and italics.’ Leo Robson on the British novelist. www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

‘The point is to tap narrative’s capacity as a navigating tool, though its limitations are also crucial. If a narrative explains everything, there’s no room for the uncanny or ineffable. If it explains nothing, it ceases to be narrative.’ Leo Robson on Nicola Barker. www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Priceless post from the official White House social media

authoritarians use five consistent mechanisms: controlling women’s bodily and reproductive autonomy; blocking equal access to the workplace and public life; reducing penalties for domestic and sexual violence; and reinforcing strict gender and sexual hierarchies’. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2026...

Had to run messages before opening the shop earlier so I stopped at Proper Order for their Dulce de leche coffee and a cookie and a read of @juliawertz.bsky.social ‘s latest! Which resulted in me crying in public! Whoops!

Enjoyed @lilliputpress.bsky.social great launch for @irishtimes.com Books Editor @martindoyle.bsky.social latest book #AHosting Interviews with Irish Writers 1991-2026, @hodgesfiggis.bsky.social . Martin has supported so many Irish writers over the years. I’m honoured & delighted to be included.😊

Bless their little loser hearts, Virginia constitutional amendments first have to pass the full legislature twice before they ever go before voters

Young me would be very excited to see such a high blue:other ratio

Every time Matt Damon takes on a period role he ends up looking like a third baseman for the Phillies.

"I was ABSOLUTELY told that the Democrats would be bringing knives to the gun fight. What the fuck are they doing bringing guns?" --a whole lot of Republicans looking at the results from Virginia right now

Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

To say "Ireland is full" is not to hold or outline a view - it's a formally meaningless statement of course - it's rather to make a signal to the violent minority for whom this phrase is a claim to racist and fascist solidarity. Time to stop treating II like a normal party maybe. #speirgorm

"We’re now firmly into scenario 2 and staring down the barrel of scenario 3."

Toni Morrison: “Access to knowledge is [the] supreme act of truly great civilizations. Of all the institutions that purport to do this, free libraries stand virtually alone in accomplishing this mission."

For those who missed it: this was the moment The Strokes ensured they’ll never be invited back to Coachella again! I'm so proud of them

Bet Iran is really shaking in their boots when Witkoff & Kushner walk up to the table in their Tom Ford sunglasses & Gucci loafers. A fresh botox on the boy wonder as if to say ‘this time I mean business..’ Stevie rocking the Patek Philippe projecting ‘don’t fuck with me’ vibes.

But what if you want to funnel a load of money to hoteliers
