"We can no longer remain silent about the fact that Palestinian life in Gaza is being made impossible.

"It is counterproductive to constantly reaffirm our support for the two-state solution while simultaneously giving carte blanche to an Israeli government that is currently undermining it."

Obviously not a very good dogwhistle if it has "I really like Hamas" in it, dogwhistles are supposed to be subtle and implicit. Be serious.

People will say "that's stupid" and "that's not true" and "that doesn't even rhyme", but I heard someone say they saw someone at a protest with that on a placard so it's true

See the thing about "From the river to the sea" is, and not many people know this, but the full slogan is actually "From the river to the sea, I really like Hamas"

Plagiatsintrige gegen Münchner Rechtsmediziner: Gericht verurteilt Arzt zu Haftstrafe Ein 70-jähriger Arzt wird wegen Urkundenfälschung, Urheberrechtsverletzung, Verleumdung und Betrug schuldig gesprochen.

Verdict in a bizarre fraud case where someone (Z) took revenge on a professor of forensic medicine (Graw) for the autopsy on his mother by creating a fake conference proceedings looking like it's from the 80s so he could accuse Graw of plagiarising from it. 🤯

Just watched Blackbird in Rascals Brewing and the best part was this insanely long tie, this picture doesn't even do it justice it just kept going

‘Er, you fill out a form’ I splutter vaguely, since it’s the only thing I can think to say, and he’s already late for school. This is how I end up spending the rest of my morning drafting Form TF230 from the Department of Teeth, replete with checkboxes specifying the hue of the tooth lost – eggshell, custard, wee, etc – and small-print legal disclaimers clarifying that ‘The condition and colour of said tooth will determine the cash amount paid, in keeping with market valuations agreed upon by Tooth Fairy assessors.’ Two hours in, the result is not remotely professional enough, so I rope in my design-genius friend Michael to elevate it towards credibility by teatime. Through his magic, it soon has a tooth map, a government barcode, and is headed with a departmental seal, complete with heraldic molar.

The finished form TF-230, complete with dental map, small print, heraldic seal and government barcode.

Patrick Freyne: Here’s what I see when I see Irish people at their best We are hospitable and irreverent, but also cynical and parochial. When things get difficult, who do we want to be?

I wrote about Irishness, sort of

Séamas O'Reilly: We need to stop lying about what makes lost boys such easy marks for cons Economically depressed young men are aggressively targeted with the oldest, most seductive pitch there is — money for nothing — by bad faith actors with enormous wealth

I wrote this on young men, and why we need to stop lying about why they're easy prey for reptiles like Andrew Tate.

Excellent letter in the Irish Times reminding us that Irish builders did not build the White House as indicated by the Taoiseach this week. It was build by slaves including those owned by the Irish architect James Hoban.

(watching someone burn down an orphanage with all the children trapped inside) well it's not the change I'd have made myself, but credit where it's due, it's happening very fast

Prague, 23 November 1911 Highly esteemed Mrs. Curie, Do not laugh at me for writing you without having anything sensible to say. But I am so enraged by the base manner in which the public is presently daring to concern itself with you!? that I absolutely must give vent to this feeling. However, I am convinced that you consistently despise this rabble, whether it obsequiously lavishes respect on you or whether it attempts to satiate its lust for sensationalism! I am impelled to tell you how much I have come to admire your intellect, your drive, and your honesty, and that I consider myself lucky to have made your personal acquaintance in Brussels. Anyone who does not number among these reptiles is certainly happy, now as before, that we have such personages among us as you, and Langevin(3) too, real people with whom one feels privileged to be in contact. If the rabble continues to occupy itself with you, then simply don't read that hogwash, but rather leave it to the reptile for whom i

einstein sent this to curie in 1911 when she was being harassed by tabloids. it contains everything you’d want in such a letter:

(1) your haters are trash
(2) you’re a baller, a true queen
(3) i have determined the statistical law of motion of the diatomic molecule in planck’s radiation field 🧪⚛️

NEW: Family of Mahmoud Khalil just released footage of his arrest

“Stop resisting”
“He’s not resisting”

we just need stupider leftists. I'm dead serious. charismatic guys with the stamina to record 100 instagram reels a week in the front seat of their car saying stuff like "trump made summers too hot" and "the fries at wendy's taste better ever since they went woke"

Mickey 17 was fun. I want a Creeper for a pet.

Remember that even Fred Phelps thinks the Burke's are a bit much

Really enjoying this classic Sesame Street segment, two minutes of freestyle jazz riffing on saxophone factory footage

[WILSON FISK VOICE.] To achieve… GREATNESS… People must… WORK TOGETHER… I thought we… AGREED on this… And YET… I look to our… CHORE WHEEL…

My uncle who runs a guitar factory had a shipment of stainless steel go missing and is in quite a panic about it, I tried to console him but maybe I should've worded it better, "don't fret" was a bit insensitive in retrospect

Figure 2: Proposed explanations for negative outcomes, taken from Guzman Holst et al preprint

Also: We recently conducted a scoping review of school interventions with negative outcomes, and included an exploration of what the authors proposed as the mechanism. See (probably tiny!) figure here, or Figure 2 in this preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps...

Important new evidence published today: large-scale DofE trial (N=12,166) found that two universal MH awareness interventions, in secondary schools, led to an *increase* in emotional symptoms at long term (9-12 month) follow up

That's an awful shame.

Anyways.

Fuck Rovers.

Two tickets to Biig Piig in the Olympia tonight. Free to a good home. #ticketfairy

For the record, if I accidentally did two Nazi salutes back to back, I’d probably be using the social media company I bought to say “holy shit I’m sorry, I did not meant to salute Adolf Hitler twice on my big day.” In fact I think this would be the response of most people

My favourite line, really shows just how closed a loop these ghouls live in.
