I recently came back from a brief trip to the west coast of Ireland. Incredible!

Fixed his recent post.

Introduce yourself with 10 acts you've seen live: . Genesis (with Peter Gabriel) . Alvvays . David Bowie . Yes . Jethro Tull . Joan Armatrading . Pat Metheny . Alan Stivell . The 1975 . The Cure

England should probably just give up the Falklands now.

The WHCA dinner. Anyone else thinking about the poor chefs and wait staff? I'd be pissed.

You are not seriously negotiating if you send people they don't trust

Iran posted this. What a humiliation for Trump.

What does that even mean?

Thirst trap. “Wonder Valley's proponents also estimate the centre will use about 24 million cubic meters of water annually — the equivalent of roughly 460,000 people's lifetime consumption.”

The world’s most honest disclaimer.

Eid Mubarak! My heart is especially with the people of Iran and Lebanon on this Eid, and all suffering peoples.

#MorningVibe Joy doesn’t mean we stop fighting. It’s the fuel that keeps us in the fight longer. It’s the reminder of what we’re fighting for. Guard your joy fiercely — not because you’re ignoring reality, but because you’re determined to change it. 🗣️ @optimisticsoap.bsky.social

Not all struggles are the same.

I often wonder if these modern-day Shaman actually believe their own bullshit or if it's just a never-ending scam to control the narrative for the suckers. “Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.” ~ Seneca

Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!

Amazing.

Zelensky responds to Russia’s massive overnight strikes: “Russia hasn’t changed its tactics—another large-scale attack on our cities and civilian life. Dozens wounded, 3 rescuers killed. Russia must be held accountable. The world can stop this—by pressing Russia now. Inaction means complicity.”

The Felon and Chief #McDope Who ever made this is genius. Let's share this all over bluesky.

“In my country, we are fighting like hell for the democracy we once took for granted... Art is the crucible that brings people together. Art looks for truth. Art embraces diversity. That’s why art is a threat. That’s why we are a threat to autocrats & fascists.” Robert De Niro • Cannes 🎬 1/3🧵

1/ There’s a growing movement quietly undermining one of the most established scientific ideas: #germtheory —the fact that viruses and bacteria cause disease. YLE contributor @kmpanthagani.bsky.social breaks it down in her most recent health (mis)communication post -- let's talk about it 🧵

Pass it on…

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality. Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

“What are you waiting for?” Watch as Al Qaeda urges followers to take advantage of America’s lax gun laws. As of this post, only 19 states require background checks for all firearms sales. Republicans disrespect our Constitution and cheapen our #2A rights. #GunOwnerForGunReform youtu.be/zK-G9zKqJIk

Tesla pays $323 million a year taxes to China for its Chinese plant… They pay absolutely zero dollars in United States taxes. Now, explain that.

BREAKING: People are being suspended on X in Turkey for posting videos of these protests against Erdoğan’s corrupt and repressive regime. Keep sharing everywhere.

Unfortunately, both statements are quite accurate...

Seems like a pretty important detail

In Iraq, if an 11 year old girl is raped & impregnated by her own father—she must carry the baby to term, or be thrown in prison for life. Wait, sorry, no. That’s Alabama. And Mississippi.

Happy Flag Day from a snowy Merrickville

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who is sick of stupid trumpers cheering every idiotic move made by trump, thinking that it ONLY hurts liberals. You stupid MAGA jackasses, what he does negatively affects AMERICA, and that includes YOUR dumb asses too. Go ahead, ring that bell.

PRO TIP: my besties and I have switched to voice texts and it’s like a podcast every day from my favorite people

@twistedthistleart.bsky.social Welcome!

Thievery Corporation in Ottawa last night. What an amazing show.
