Top of my list of missing native species we should be looking at reintroducing to Ireland? Lynx!! • Never attack people • Rarely attack livestock • Aren't pack animals • Help regulate deer • Help regulate smaller predators, like fox • Are a huge tourist draw • Are just GORGEOUS!!

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

Isn't it mad that American Cabinet members don't even have to be elected representatives? Whose idea was that?

I went through this weird phase as a teenager where I watched MAS*H every day. (I also recruited one sister and several friends into this endeavour.) Loretta Swit was so funny and sometimes so heart-wrenching as Hot Lips Houlihan. She took this caricature of a woman and made her a whole person.

Israel spending millions of dollars on a campaign to buy the public vote in Eurovision while killing 500 Gazans, including woman and children, in a weekend of bombing has to be one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen a country do simultaneously. Fuck this. Fuck all of this.

It's so strange watching America essentially speedrun what we went through with the eighth amendment. This poor woman.

If you bomb a hospital filled with patients it's unambiguously a war crime, but if you say there was a known enemy combatant inside at the time, that's still unambiguously a war crime, like seriously, what are we even doing here

I will forever be haunted by this footage. Trawling has only been filmed underwater a few times in documentary history, and never with such clarity. What’s so heart-rending about these shots is watching how the animals don’t just get swept up — they swim for their lives. 🌎🦑🧪

Today I commemorate Hind Rajab, who would've turned seven years old today if a US-backed genocidal Israel hadn't violently & intentionally exterminated the terrified girl, left waiting amidst the corpses of her family for an ambulance crew Israel massacred, with over 300 bullets shot from a tank.

Recently I found myself on Antipope Instagram, where there are endless reels of the current Antipope of the Palmarian Catholic Church. This is, of course, extremely my jam, and I started reading up on them hoping to find some wild theology, but instead I found something WAY better...
