I’d give credit if I knew who made it.

They're really having fun with it on tiktok.

This is brilliant

The exhibition on the 1926 Irish census is open in our central London building until 15 May (other than today due to the marathon). No booking required so do check the timings and then pop in!

I love this essay very much!!!!

I have two pitbulls & most of my day is spending being knocked over by my angel dog who never does anything wrong but has no spatial awareness (usually when I have hot tea in my hands) & wondering how & when my chaotic gremlin dog learned to juggle lit sticks of dynamite while riding a unicycle

I went to the Chicago Palestinian Film Festival this weekend and wrote a review on the Palestinian comedy Thank You for Banking With Us for my friend @intheirownleague.bsky.social intheirownleague.com/2026/04/21/c...

My episode on Kevin O'Higgins during the Irish War of Independence just went live on all podcast platforms. Take a listen and learn how he nearly drove poor Cosgrave to a mental breakdown (jk...sort of) #IrishHistory #IrishWarofIndependence podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...

Maryland has, for now, stopped ICE from converting a warehouse designed to hold commercial products into a warehouse used to hold people. Similar lawsuits have been filed against ICE's warehouse detention camp plans in New Jersey and Michigan.

Black folk in the US are still angry over what many of us see as multiple betrayals. People focus on Harris, Booker, and Jeffries. Yes, sure. But look at Bowman, Bush, and now Crockett. Al Green, censured twice. Black SES & life metrics, cratering. Silence re: Ed Blum & AA attacks. We all we got.

The Warsaw Ghetto uprising and the Great Palestinian Revolt in Palestine both began on April 19th.

I absolutely adore Harry Clarke's work. I saw his stain glass for the first time during a trip in Dublin and instantly fell in love.

Love it

Palantir is an evil fucking company that needs to be destroyed.

Today, a lot of people will be talking about the manifesto that Palantir released. In addition to pouring over what those words mean, I invite you to ground the conversation in what Palantir has already done. Its work with Israel and ICE show us exactly what it stands for.

There are a lot of points in this manifesto you can point to and say “This here is the sign.” But this right here, this is THE SIGN that these fuckers are just openly fascist and imperialist.

Happy 80th birthday to Tim Curry who has always, *always* understood the assignment.

Today, there are a number of mobilizations happening across the world in solidarity with the people in Lebanon. Here are some photos from the vigil in Washington, DC. The group is calling for a permanent ceasefire, an arms embargo, and accountability for war crimes.

THE HOUSE JUST VOTED TO EXTENDED TPS FOR HAITI!!! Thank you, Rep. Ayanna Pressley for your leadership on this. Proud to help co-lead this effort for our Haitian brothers, sisters, and siblings. What a day.

I just posted my new episode on Kevin O’Higgins on my Patreon. Listen to the episode a week before everyone else. www.patreon.com/posts/155051...

As Giorgio Agamben wrote, the whole point of concentration camps and similar is that they are a zone where law does not operate (more precisely, where inmates are stripped of all legal protection and are “outside” society.)

A worker died in a Amazon warehouse in Oregon. For more than an hour the workers in the facility were ordered to continue working as the man lay dead. One worker tried to help, but a manager told him “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work.“ EVIL.

Update: This bill still sits on the desk of Governor Spanberger. The deadline for her to take action one way or the other is this MONDAY evening.

I have a small favor to ask. I am wrapping up season 3 of my history podcast & gathering materials for season 4 which will be about the three Anglo-Afghan wars. I would love to use resources written within the last five to seven years & uplift Afghan voices/provide an Afghan perspective on the wars.

So after being offered an in-person appearance from JD Vance and a promise by Don Jr. for “a direct line” to his dad if they support Viktor Orban, Hungarians decided instead to vote for a possible supermajority of seats against Orban

Congratulations to JD Vance, who blew up the Iran peace talks and Viktor Orban's electoral chances in a single weekend

Congratulations Hungary and Europe!!!!

Reuters says Tisza has at least 135 seats: 133 is the constitutional supermajority! Live by highly disproportional electoral systems (which Orbán made even more disproportional with the extra compensation votes awarded to winners), die by highly disproportional electoral systems.

for sure, congratulations to magyar. but the real heroes imo are those in civil society & journalism & rank-and-file opposition & academia who have fought against the disintegration of rule of law, the weaponization of the courts/media, & so much more for so long. 🇭🇺

YES, A FAILED IMPEACHMENT MEANS REPUBLICANS APPROVE OF TRUMP'S CONDUCT. THAT'S THE WHOLE REASON TO DO IT

Again I’d like to point to all of the high school student walk outs that have been happening for months In Los Angeles even the middle school students are involved

How it feels applying for jobs

I’m playing around with my Patreon trying to figure out what to do with it and I added a zine I created to the store. If you’re a member you get it for free or you can buy it as a non-member (which Patreon would let me have true control over the price but oh well) www.patreon.com/posts/155138...

a “ceasefire” that lasted 17 hours and killed 254 people in lebanon is not a ceasefire and referring to it as one is inaccurate

The reason that there are strikes on Lebanon is that Israel is illegally attacking one of its neighbors but given that this is a more or less permanent state of affairs it’s easy to miss

Reminds me of when China thought it would teach Vietnam a lesson in 1979, but ended up getting schooled.

I just published an episode on the Cessation of the Irish Civil War. Check it out on all podcast hosting platforms podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r...

invoke the 25th and start impeachment anyway

Stopping myself from normalising Israeli horrors is an endless process. When they bombed my hometown, I thought: only this many people died at least they didn’t take down an entire building at least they’re not annihilating my entire hometown like they’re doing in the south This isn’t normal

We still need to impeach the childfucker

EMERGENCY RELEASE from Gen. Eaton.

I have voted twice to advance articles of impeachment. We cannot wait. Congress must convene immediately and begin proceedings to remove this man from office for the safety of our nation, Americans, and the world.

Also I swear to God if he doesn't use nukes but carpet bombs the civilian infrastructure of the entire country you don't get to fucking say he showed restraint or its normal or what the fuck ever, war crimes are about the crimes not the means.

So Durbin and Duckworth’s lines are swamped but no one seems to be calling Danny K Davis and his staff is too chill for the moment.

everything we are seeing now is the consequence of having a political environment in which indifference to the deaths and suffering of other people - even by the state whose supposed responsibility is to safeguard their welfare - is a superpower rather than a political liability

Iranian government, through the Ministry of Sports and Youth, says it is calling on the "Iranian youth," including "athletes, artists, students," to gather at 2 PM tomorrow around the country's power plants.

The year is 2027. Hakeem Jeffries steps out of his nuclear bunker for the first time in almost a year in full hazmat gear. His fingertips are stained with graphite and marred by thousands of papercuts. In his hand he holds the most strongly worded letter ever written in all of history.
