Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

It was because his actions were evil and he did loads of evil things to people who were vulnerable, and the only possible explanatiion for his actions, is that they are ok &normal in a system that rewards evil towards the vulnerable because he was just a wittle tiny baby trying to make a profit

I wrote this when Nell McCafferty turned 80 in March. She was fierce and funny and she was right - so often - when it was a very dangerous thing to be.

Nell was a giant whose impact on all our lives is likely incalculable.

Her loss is Derry's, Ireland's, and everyone's. RIP.

I am absolutely not interested in having "both sides" discussions about the British Museum's theft of my work,
FIT. This is one of the most insulting emails I have received on this topic to date. It's impossible for the discussion to be "apolitical."

If we want to talk about ppl who do good in this world, let’s talk about Dolly.

Inspired by her dad’s inability to read or write, she created the Imagination Library, which mails kids all around the world one free book every month from birth to age five.

She’s given away 226 MILLION books to date.
Oh man.... Vance is cooked, and Trump can't ditch him.

Miriam Adelson is quite possibly Trump's biggest donor and people who interact with me for basketball may be interested to know that she is also the current owner of the Dallas Mavericks and yes she is very much an extremist and super bad for Palestine.
There is no equivalent. Who? MBS? do you think he cares about Palestinians?
Instead, you have a vocal, large part of Trump's base literally cheering for the genocide of Palestinians. You have mega donors who demand he allows Israel to annex the West Bank.

If your reaction to seeing a woman excelling at a sport, any sport, is to immediately start believing she's a man then you're misogynistic.

This is Beatriz Souza. Yesterday she won Brazil’s first gold medal in Paris (Judo, 78kg+). Given everything Brazil’s racial politics, and the fact that she’s a full figured black woman with natural hair who is the current face of Brazilian sporting success, this means a lot to so many. Parabens.
