They’re not great at flirting but I still think it’s cute that they try

This is why these nerd-bros fall for every scam going from NFTs to Elon to incel pickup dudes. Because they have no absolutely social skills and a complete inability to understand other humans and their interactions

New York peeps

Agree with every word Billy says here.

Dubliners use the bus in huge numbers: they deserve respect and priority on our roads.

In an op-ed for The The Irish Times today, I explain why dublinbusnews supports the Dublin City Centre Traffic Plan. We must prioritise the collective good over individual comfort. We cannot press pause on Dublin’s future.

Don't miss Dr Panti Bliss-Cabrera at Irish Arts Center June 13 through 23 > irishartscenter.org/event/panti-bl…

Short🧵on the appalling coverage by BBC News (UK) of Israel’s slaughter of Palestinian refugees sheltering in tents in a so-called ‘safe zone’ in Rafah.

1st they run a piece with the title ‘Deadly explosion reported in Rafah’ as if it happened out of nowhere.

Israel has committed another massacre - west of Rafah near Al-Mawasi safe zone.

Reports of 20 Palestinians killed in a tent encampment, decimated bodies strewn around the site of the strike.

Without humanitarian intervention it is impossible to see how this does not stop.

I absolutely CANNOT overstate how similar the anti-gay moral panic of the 80's and 90's is to the current anti-trans moral panic.

It is THE SAME in almost every way - word-for-word - same lies - same arguments - same propaganda - same fears - same 'concerns' - everything.

Tonight 9pm Channel 4 Kill Zone: Inside Gaza, made by an amazing team. Us western journalists complain about not being allowed in Gaza, meanwhile these great, brave Palestinian journalists are doing the job & bearing witness (& getting killed. Over 100 dead so far).

As Palestinians dig up body parts of their children burned alive by Israeli bombs while they slept in tents, the NYT published these words 'One of the greatest mass delusions of the 21st century is the belief that Israel is committing a genocide against Palestinians'

The video of the man holding his decapitated child while the tents burn and people run for their lives is one of the most...horrifying images I have ever seen and also just one of the stream of horrifying images coming out of Rafah that should bring the world to a total stop.
