World War 3 kinda sucks, but you know, it was either this or pronouns

Today I'm celebrating Bloomsday by recreating Joyce's favourite activity: not being in Dublin.

Donald Trump does NOT want you to share this footage of his pathetically tiny birthday parade crowd.

“Formal subtlety and fragmentation” meets a “warmly conventional heart” in Wendy Erskine’s “sophisticated, chewy” The Benefactors, which Robert Collins loved.

I made you all in My image, and I'm an asshole.

hi i'm ben your ai chatbot

Well I have slept on it. But I can‘t get over it. "Island of Strangers“ is a horrible thing to say. And honestly, as someone who spends her professional life trying to see the British side, constantly agonising whether I am too harsh or judgemental, I am deeply upset today. (I don‘t live in 🇬🇧.)

This is an absolutely disastrous framing to adopt. “Immigration beings great gains but it needs to be controlled to maximise benefits” was/is right there on the table. Instead they have opted to lead with the strongest possible “Nigel Farage is right, don’t vote for him” headline.

One of the strangest ironies of the last ten years has been watching Britain immersing itself as deeply as ever in memories of WW2 while proudly turning its back on the project that emerged from it.

In fairness, China's pronouncers of state propaganda have a much better game then America's.

I googled "houses that look surprised" and I'm glad I did.

🤣🤣🤣 CANADA CANADA...least we still have the Commonwealth Games lol

Pulp: Spike Island review – Jarvis Cocker and co’s joyous second coming

I had an excellent meeting with Kristrún Frostadóttir. Iceland is an integral part of the European family — and the challenges we face, we face together.

Trump’s own voters are turning on him.

Freiburg, Germany, Central Station Bookshop (right @the center of the shop‘s entryway): “This is a selection of books which are banned at schools in the US“. #UniteAgainstBookBans #FreedomToRead @ala-pla.bsky.social @librarypolicy.bsky.social

Forget an invite from the King. We obviously need to invade a sovereign European country, steal it's children, and inflict mass casualties. 🙄

It’s 9am TFT time here, and citizens are already gathering to protest Tariffs by the United States. Our plain clothes Officer Penguins are attempting to maintain calm, but unfortunately we keep losing them in the crowd.

Istanbul. Over 2 million people joined the demonstration.

Hold on, so Steve Witkoff was participating in the Signal group discussing war plans against Houthis while being physically in Moscow, perhaps even in the Kremlin? He met Putin late on March 13. Obviously the odds of Russia not compromising any device he would bring there are pretty slim.

What I genuinely don't understand is how 350 million people just let this happen. I genuinely do not comprehend this. In European countries there are hundreds of thousands and even millions in the streets (in countries a tenth of the size of the US) for WAY less than this complete disassembly.

Former Irish PM

For some reason, Trump exempted "Poutine" from Canadian tariffs.

Epic idea

Has Trump really thought this through? (Rhetorical question) If Canada became a US state, it would have 54 electoral votes—same population as California—which would presumably all be blue, thus locking Republicans out of government in perpetuity.
