Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

No one else will notice

Israel’s ecocide in Gaza sends this message: even if we stopped dropping bombs, you couldn’t live here | George Monbiot Consider the annihilation of agricultural land alongside the genocide – and grasp the chilling totality of this attempt to eliminate all life, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

When you consider the *ecocide* alongside the genocide being perpetrated in Gaza, you begin to grasp the totality of the Israeli state’s attempt to eliminate both the Palestinians and their homeland.

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

This wonderful vista will be destroyed by @sdublincoco to make way for 300 car spaces for a €35M overscaled vanity project! #FridayMorning #fact www.change.org/p/save-the-h...

There's a setting in blue sky that will remind you to add before a photo is posted

Screen shot of event page for Filthy Queens: A History of Beer in Ireland. Text reads: Filthy Queens: A History of Beer in Ireland. September 30 @5:00-6:00. Then picture of book cover with text overlap of date and indicating it takes place online

I'd be surprised, there's loads in Edinburgh, while I know Glasgow ain't great, there's plenty of towns around that have hand pumps. Now, Northern Ireland is a different case...

Just ordered a couple of bottles of this along with many other bottles, can wait until they arrive.

A screenshot of a social media post from Greg Abbott. The text says: "This is what happened to the person who was mocking Charlie Kirk’s assassination at Texas Tech. FAFO." The attached image shows a young woman with long braids, wearing a patterned tank top and jeans, being handcuffed by two police officers in uniform. Her facial expression looks tense as she turns her head. Below, Abbott’s earlier post is quoted: "Definitely picked the wrong school to taunt the death of Charlie Kirk. Thanks Texas Tech." The post shows thousands of replies, retweets, and likes.

A screenshot of a social media post from Eric Daugherty. The text says: "🚨 UPDATE: It's being reported that this demon who danced on Charlie Kirk's grave has been expelled from Texas Tech. She said: 'f-ck y'all, yo homie dad!' They're finding out." Below is a still from a video showing a college campus walkway with students standing around. A woman with long hair, a backpack, and a tank top is at the center. On-screen text in the video reads: "Woke college student at Texas Tech mocks Charlie Kirk’s dath. 'Fck y’all... yo homie d*ad'. Make her famous." The post notes it was reshared from Gabriel and shows 3.5M views.

It may be distasteful but it is not illegal to mock someone's death and it should not warrant arrest, ever. The 1st Amendment exists specifically to protect disfavored speech and what is happening now is one of the greatest threats to free speech in the United States.

Was in there once a couple of years ago and it's the pub I most want to get back to some day soon

A poster showing the text “920 VENUES SERVING IRISH BEER 30% OF ALL VENUES #DRINKIRISH https://drink.irish”

920 venues (that we know of!) across the country serve independent Irish beer, about 30% of all venues!

All welcome. Please come and meet other members and have a chat and a beer. We often move to the second pub between 8:30 and 9pm.

More importantly, where did you go drinking afterwards? And was the beer served from a beer engine or an Aitken fount?

If Al Murray isn't helping, it's time to bug him a bit harder. 😉

Can't wait to see InistoMórrow

In the UK and Ireland, only beer mat I reckon. Coaster is something more substantial/permanent that you might have on your coffee table

Father Ted?

It's anonymous, just say what it is. Or if it's as serious as you make out, then why?

Probably just bait...

And yet dogs get away with it constantly

Not an opinion

Gerrymandering has been a problem in the USA for decades, actually for well over a century. The fact it is still an issue shows how broken the system has been for so many long.

Say hello John, I'm at the German bar

Empty pint glass with some pretty good lacing, used to have Newbarns Mosaic in it

End of pint, not bad at all

What cars did to your city, AI will do to your brain Once again, I rage against the dying of the light. Also this week: some maps to show that England is not concreting the countryside; and the longest conveyor belt in the world.

There’s a concept in transport planning called “induced traffic”, which is essentially the evil twin of “if you build it, they will come”.

Motherfucking wind farms…
