This thing about having “an open and honest conversation about immigration” - the problem is that too many white English people treat non-white people as fundamentally inhuman. It’s simply as that. When people like that say “immigration” they mean “infection”.

I attended a seminar tonight about how the Crown took possession of high-value land from "disloyal" Māori who had full ownership rights and how the Crown worked overtime to make it look like it was strictly following the law when the law was just a copypasta collage of Irish and Scottish land grabs

Transgender people told us that the long waitlist for the National Gender Service was not the sole reason why some decide to access DIY-healthcare. They said the types of questions asked are also leading to a lack of trust in the system. jrnl.ie/6691757

This is the Groove-billed Ani (Crotophaga sulcirostris), and it's just straight up a dinosaur. Like, I know *all* birds are technically avian dinosaurs, but my first thought looking at this guy is: dinosaur. (📷: Suzie McCann, eBird)

Remembering how our old landlord and her social media specialist garda husband tried to get me to Stop Posting About Landlords in an RTB hearing. And how they inexplicably included a drawing of Lucy's DnD goblin OC and provided no context for how it was relevant to the rent case.

A little poster I made giving a timeline of the executed leaders of the 1916 Rising! #irishhistory #spéirgorm #1916rising #history #historysky #easterrising

This country really does specialise in creating a type of suburbanised peasant that craves a pat on the head from their betters.

Found this in some old photos: the cartoon that got my biggest twitter numbers

Keep bullying these losers.

Americans really will be facing shortages in about 2-3 weeks.

I'm looking for recommendations on pre-contact histories of the nations of what is now America and Canada. I'm a bit stumped at finding things that are more histories of various nations and bands as opposed to anthropological style studies, if that makes sense.

Immediate papal bull, ex cathedra, Chigago Deep Dish Pizza is the one true pizza. Schism imminent.

Is it "I do not understand this squeamishness about the use of gas. I am strongly in favor of using poisoned gas against uncivilized tribes" by any chance?

Boycott absolutely everything from Israel. Everything.

I helped with this, but I'm also going to toss it over to my #Speirgorm friends for additions. Things UK trans folks should know if they're planning on coming here. - Healthcare is next to non-existent wrt trans stuff. - Housing is next to non-existent for all of us. - Expensive.

KOKO THE GORILLA: Koko birkin bag. Practical Koko possession bag RESEARCHER: No, Koko. You can’t have a Birkin bag. KOKO: Good Birkin good Koko give beautiful Koko deserve gorilla RESEARCHER: Koko, we simply can’t afford a Birkin bag. It is an unjustifiable expense. KOKO: jealousy professor

....Yeah, this, ah, isn't good.

VERMONT: Pepper is still at the shelter. 💔 There is no risk of him being euthanized, he's just very sad and lonely. I found out why he was returned and it was 100% not his fault. He has no behavioral or litter box issues. He's just a lovely little man and someone will be SO lucky to adopt him.

Didn’t think I’d ever get a chance to reuse this

How am I doingnso far this Bank Holiday weekend?, you ask:

AI’s only general purpose use is to control labor. Thank you.

If only there was a less costly alternative provided by the State.

There's a bill passing through parliament at the moment called the Data Bill An added amendment would completely remove trans people's right to privacy, and could even revert legal documents We have to apply a lot of pressure on this one too MPs. More info here: www.reddit.com/r/LabourUK/c...

I keep saying it. He's going to make himself an anti-Pope.

The National Gender Service requires transgender people who have already transitioned and received healthcare and gender recognition in other EU countries to go through their system, including the psychiatric assessments and years-long waitlist. jrnl.ie/6692742

Happy Worker's Day, choose violence

I'm old enough to remember these guys using a picture of Corbyn,when he was the British opposition leader, as target practice.

Transgender people have been asked about pornography and their sex lives when accessing healthcare from the National Gender Service. They said this experience was traumatic and upsetting. Experts said questions like these are “completely inappropriate”. jrnl.ie/6690859

This is going to be a fun anti-papacy.

All I'm going to say is that the Brits literally imprisioned Just Oil people for even planning a protest online.

They were already doing this for some of their courses last year. The Irish course is completely ruined, the real human voices have been replaced with AI ones which have their pronunciation all over the place, and in many cases make up sounds that don’t exist in any Irish dialect. It’s awful.

Here is a baby otter to make you feel better about everything.

Bloody hell, Thomas Aquinas was massive. I think he's the only kaiju to have been a Doctor of the Church.
