Under-expressed reason for hating Russian leadership is how much harder they’ve made it to be anti war and anti militarism

"The UK government demands clarification on rap group's post" Just give me the Chinese century man, I'm fucking tired. Shit's embarrassing.

No disrespect to Kneecap but why is everyone acting like they're political or diplomatic figures of importance and not a rap group? Why was this an international incident? Why did the Taoiseach need to get involved??

What are other examples besides the Canadian Liberals of parties for whom winning and holding power is an active ideological component? Especially outside the anglosphere

I know it’s necessary but the anti-IHRA prep work is really depressing me. Millions of people are staring down genocidal forced starvation and what am I doing about it? Getting into a fucking semantic debate on antisemitism? Depraved, I feel sick with the inadequacy of it all

Sorry to all the patriot paddys who had a fun little march but for all their foibles one thing De Valera and McQuaid got right from the jump is constitutionally guaranteeing freedom of religious and cultural practice, including specific recognition for our small Jewish community

Yeah turns out the Irish Palestine movement is pretty averse to big marches of racist (and antisemitic!) groups, who could have guessed Saw plenty at the counter protest though, not that any of these people were there to notice

Feel real conflict about autism 'how to be normal' treatment structure because the fact is, if you are autistic learning to mask and appear 'normal' will make your life a lot better, not even in question

Btw if you haven't read it The Dead is among the finest pieces of short literature in the English language and easily findable online or as part of the Dubliners collection found in almost any library or bookshop in Ireland

If the treatment response to autism moves towards heavier focus on enforced normality and employability, what does that imply for the big portion of autistic people for whom those things are straightforwardly unattainable?

Seemingly an unpopular position but we already have plenty of Joyce museums and exhibits. I know because I've been to all of them. What we desperately need is housing
