i know we all need to just internalise this and move on but i really can't get past the fact that all high-level geopolitics is now "thinking up ways to trick the world's most infantile man into believing that your agenda will make him look like the birthday boy"

"... looking for dangerous dependence on America and stripping them out of the system." With Ireland's enormous reliance on American multi-nationals, we're facing an extremely challenging time ahead.

It's frustrating to see the media refer to Trump's "plan" for Gaza, which does a real disservice to the English language. A plan has been thought out and assessed wrt costs, benefits and realistic ways of achieving it. This is not a plan. It is the delusion of a man disconnected from reality.

This is the opposite of accountability. The WH briefing room is being opened up to people who have an inherent interest in falling into line (moreso than mainstream outlets anyway), providing their followers with sycophantic "content" and collecting expanding ad revenues. Or, in a word, shills.

So the Americans restrict China's access to cutting edge chips, and China out-innovates them anyway. How predictable. Only one way to solve this. Tariffs, bans, sanctions, etc.

Two hours before the @meteireann.bsky.social Red warning comes into effect in #Cork and the barometer has gone below its minimum range. First saw this during Ophelia. Stay safe.

Yes, it's weird how a lot of men seem to assert their masculinity vicariously, which is not at all masculine in the old-fashioned sense they allegedly aspire to.

The surest way to cut Musk down to size is to play to Trump's megalomania. Persistent coverage like this will almost certainly bring out Trump's jealousy and spite towards people who are perceived to overshadow him, in this case, Musk. So, keep it up!
