I wouldn't trust this man to tell me what day it is. But if anyone needs urgent care & goes to hospital they should get that care as quickly as is humanly possible. If ERs had to check citizenship or residency status or insurance cover before providing care more people would die seeking urgent care.

There's no two ways of putting this;

Nature in Ireland is fucked and our ambition for restoration does not go far enough.

We also have to make hard choices where we will lose somethings to make space for others because of climate and anthropogenic impacts.

There is no easy answer to this.

Rivers and lakes are good too though. And can be just as dangerous. Best go wherever makes you happiest I guess - risk is ever present regardless.

Funny and true.

I suspect another reason companies are adding in AI is about capturing more personal data from you. Probably best to avoid using it logged into anything until there is more transparency on that.

International opinion has rounded on Israel, but it's not enough to force Netanyahu's hand | Sanam Vakil Condemnation alone won’t change Israel’s trajectory. For that, concrete action on sanctions and Palestinian statehood is required, says Sanam Vakil, director of Chatham House’s Middle East and North A...

What’s needed now is coordinated, strategic external and internal action that can finally force a shift away from endless war and toward a path of accountability, justice and peace.

I wonder if it has any spy tech on it. I do not mean this to be insulting, just going by history, if the US gave something like this to another country, particularly to a country in that part of the world, it would be riddled with the stuff.

It’s wrong to accept it. Might be very stupid too.

If you’re going to get a train at 7:30 otherwise, and you’ll be tired enough on the 5:30 to fall asleep, maybe get that one? Whichever way you’re most likely to get some/most sleep would be what I’d choose.

How exactly did β€œwoke” manage to become a derogatory term? Do all these people who are anti-woke actually want to go around in a somnambulist state? How are they not being mocked for being dozy af?

A page right out of the autocrat's playbook--come for the loudest critics. Note they started with the activists and organizers who were focused on the war in Gaza.

People generally, but in particular people of European descent, need a much greater awareness of how colonial powers treated the people in the lands they colonized and how much they profited from it. Anyone who talks about it as a positive thing should realise how stupid and inhumane they sound.

For those who dk, β€˜Messianic Jewish’ means he’s a Christian in the sense that he believes Jesus to be the Messiah.

So this is a Christian calling himself Jewish who pretended to be Muslim to entrap Muslims.
