The Biddy is an Irish folk tradition linked to Brigid’s Day and Imbolc, where groups wear white and handmade straw headpieces to travel around playing music while carrying a Brídeóg (a model Brigid in child form), warding off evil and bringing luck.

In Dublin, on Fenian Street, there's a factory that makes child sex abuse material.

You can pay it money, as a subscription, and that's one of the services it offers. This doesn't happen by mistake or because you've tricked or hacked the system.

It’s a feature.

The United States is bombing Venezuela while the people are asleep!

Venezuela produces less than 1% of the world’s illegal drugs. But they do have the world’s largest proven oil reserve.

Still think this is really about stopping the cartels?

The pledge makes clear that it does not prohibit those involved from working with Israeli people and is instead aimed at institutions.

Pat Brodie and I have a book coming out in October. Really hoping it can be useful for analysing the imperialist political ecology of big tech and the energy transition.

Big thanks to @kaiheron.bsky.social, @triofrancos.bsky.social, Anne Pasek (and others) for their generous words and engagement.

Israeli soldiers are war criminals, and impudently and shamelessly document their war crimes for consumption by the Israeli public who cheer this genocide and mass starvation campaign on.

Trump dying and taking MAGA (in its current form) with him would be good. Just so we're clear. The things that made MAGA happen would still be there and would make something else happen instead, but MAGA has a successful alchemy that it would be good to see expire.

Trump dying will have a huge effect. The Republican Party is MAGA now, MAGA grew inside it and took it over, and MAGA is - among the other things it is - a cult of personality. This is not rational but it is materially true.

More than 10 years ago I remember reading stories about Palestinian soccer players being shot in the feet by snipers. International sports competitions, FIFA, the Olympics, etc matter because they’re spaces where the world comes together peacefully but also with pride to represent our many cultures.
Israel’s athleticide in Gaza is a deliberate attempt to erase a culture. It is an essential part of the larger genocidal project.

Every word of this
It’s not just about the death of journalists in Gaza. It’s about the death of journalism in the West. And each cowardly journalist drove a nail into that coffin.

I got a bit heated on today’s #EchoChamberPod, but I stand over every single word.
