Really don’t understand the “I can separate the art and the artist” crowd, especially when you can see said artist doing awful things in real time.

If a writer would have hated your family and friends, in what world can you separate that from what you’re consuming?

The O’Brien Press supports Publishing Ireland’s call upon the Irish Government and the EU to uphold copyright law and hold Meta to account.

may i offer you some sun

especially when the movie doesn't really call for it 😭😭 camp is dead!!!

you're actually so real for that, I also cannot wait to go grab a snack and have a silly goofy time, I feel like everyone else is just approaching it the wrong way

Babygirl, your use of AI artwork on your album/book/film poster/profile photo is so off-putting that I stop engaging immediately ♥️

(I did finish work early to go touch grass, however did you guess?)

who was the person that looked at sunlight passing through the treetops to reflect on mountain streams and went "we should spend 8h in front of a screen looking at spreadsheets"? who!!

A list of Read Irish Women Challenge prompts for every day I'm April, running for the whole month. Day 1 is - a book about a fresh start.

Picture shows a digital image of one young man & two young women reading books. The text above reads Dubray Supporting #ReadIrishWomenChallenge25

The impotent part of the text reads - The challenge aims to be inclusive, so welcomes books by women of colour, ethnic minorities and the diaspora as well as trans women.

Calling all readers, here are the prompts for this April's #ReadIrishWomenChallenge25
There's a different prompt for each day of April, starting on the 1st, to encourage conversation, sharing, and discovering new writers.
Happy reading & sharing everyone! 💙📚

There is an impulse in moments like this to appeal to self-interest. To say: These horrors you are allowing to happen, they will come to your doorstep one day; to repeat the famous phrase about who they came for first and who they'll come for next. But this appeal cannot, in matter of fact, work. If the people well served by a system that condones such butchery ever truly believed the same butchery could one day be inflicted on them, they'd tear the system down tomorrow. And anyway, by the time such a thing happens, the rest of us will already be dead. No, there is no terrible thing coming for you in some distant future, but know that a terrible thing is happening to you now. You are being asked to kill off a part of you that would otherwise scream in opposition to injustice. You are being asked to dismantle the machinery of a functioning conscience. Who cares if diplomatic expediency prefers you shrug away the sight of dismembered children? Who cares if great distance from the bloodstained middle allows obliviousness. Forget pity, forget even the dead if you must, but at least fight against the theft of your soul.

One of many moments in Omar El Akkad’s new book, “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This,” that will stop you in your tracks.

happy belated birthday pal!!! 🥰🥰💙🎉✨️

The Mummy!!!!

This was Hossam's last post on Instagram. Demanding accountability for Israel's attacks.

I actually think the soundtrack for these films have no business being as good as they are. Some of the absolute best out there. Banger after banger after banger.

"Atlas" by Coldplay with the end credits really hits because suddenly I'm 15 in the back of the car at some ungodly hour listening to the soundtrack after watching the film in cinema. No notes.

Finished rewatching Catching Fire and I am actually convinced this is where cinema peaked. There is simply no going anywhere else. Nobody speak to me as I process.

there may or may not be a book on Irish peat and boglands in the (near in purely publishing terms) future, I'm sure we can arrange a publicity copy should your curiosity outlast the video 👀👀

I genuinely think me only reading one book at a time would be considered a cry for help!!

At a time of increasing White Supremacy noise, it's more important than ever to amplify - and read - writers of colour. Great titles here to choose from⬇️

BIG day for annoying people

Irish businesses will struggle to compete with Amazon ie, both online and in the high street.

Shop direct with your Irish retailers, who already exist.

Support local, not the billionaires.

There’s a Trans Rights Readathon?!? Which is CLASS & I am going to shamelessly mention A Fix of Light to be a potential read for it!!! #TRR #AFixofLight 🦊🏳️‍⚧️

Istg if I see a single spoiler for SOTR I will curse entire bloodlines

what is a girlboss, at her very core, if not just a girl?

I'm actually going to have to invest in a wig to be less easily recognisable, because how am I meant to walk over to the bookshop to get my copy of SUNRISE the literal second I finish a zoom meeting with the buyer for that very shop

I'm just a girl, standing in front of the Haim sisters, asking them when we're getting another tour
