Post a gif of who you wanted to be as a kid

Just remember: the hateful claims made against Muslims today were previously made against Jews (and often still are). Sometimes word-for-word. Same hate, different targets. We all stand together against hatred, or we will be picked off one by one.

Mad to see Micheál Martin shouting "Let's do more data centers! Let's do more LNG! Let's do more LNG-fueled data centers!" over the giant global economic sucking sound.

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes was first published in 1892. I’m sitting in my mothers kitchen and idly pulled a hardback copy off the shelf. 1895 edition. As you do.

Narratively having Ever Given getting stuck in 2021 to set up Hormuz in 2026 is great foreshadowing. You want your audience to understand the basics of international shipping in a lower stakes context so you drop the real plot without a lot of saggy exposition about the minutiae of cargo logistics.

OMG this is amazing

I would use the little slotted key that’s clipped on to the back, feed the tag in the slot, and carefully break the seal before rolling back the rectangular lid. You need a steady hand not to get oil o yourself though.

mom can you pick me up at the strait of hormuz, my friends are laughing at me and wont help

I would pass it round the dinner table from one family member to the next, each one giving a slight twist on the lid, so that eventually it would open without undue pressure and without anyone having to strain themselves.

One of my favourite things to do is bake an old-school seedycake. And then eat it. And it’s been ages. So I’ve just got one into the oven and it will delight my soon-to-be-98 mother tomorrow. And me. #Spéirghorm

I could have skipped that whole rant earlier and just said this. Nobody is actually worried about fairness in school sports. This is just a way to label trans people as "other" in some kind of formal or official setting, so that it may be referred to as precedent to other them everywhere else.

Reminder Forests are the natural hospitals for body and soul. You go in, no one asks you, no one gives you appointments for examinations, etc. You get what you need, and you feel better, and you are also delighted by the splendor and beauty. We need more forests worldwide💚🌳🌲🍀

So much for that experiment! Take note, Europe.

me and the other scheming viziers are wearing shoes gifted to us by the king that are way too big. we look ridiculous. the whole court is laughing at us behind our backs. honestly this is a pretty low point for us, the scheming viziers

#Spéirghorm I’ve been watching Dancing with the Stars and sending either Tolu or Jordan home while Paudie is kept in is just a fucking travesty.

This just got a like, so I'm re-upping it for the day that's in it. #speirgorm #InternationalWomensDay

Keep it up

Patchflow Ltd and their directors should be sued for punitive damages after the undue stress they caused tenants. Rotten to the core. #SpéirGhorm

Brilliant. An expat im Dubai has a startling revelation, by @stephencollins.bsky.social

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.

Find me someone with this kind of fire in the belly among the greasy till-fumblers who clog our parliaments today .

Never forget who you’re fighting for.

“If you criticize Netanyahu's policies, you are then described as being anti-Semitic. That is a disgrace and a slander...” — Michael D. Higgins former Irish President Ireland 🇮🇪

Very much looking forward to protesting this BS on Oct 4th even better if there's nothing to protest that day.

Terms and conditions apply* *Does not apply to trans people, especially in the UK. Indeed we will do everything we possibly can to deny trans people their human dignity (as well as human rights) including lying about the law.

Senator Alice Mary Higgins asked the CnaM Chairman why his organisation didn’t take action under the Irish Online Safety Code against Grok generating CSAM. Apparently, it didn’t appear to them to be a breach of the code. What , then, is it good for?

it was getting dicey there for a minute but ok we can keep the internet

I thought it was a bit too subtle myself so I gave him a bit of help.

Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.

Nice quote on footpaths from John Burroughs. He was thinking of the USA at the time, but he could have had other places in mind...
