My time in this world is very likely to come to an end in the coming days - although I'll keep trying to push it out a bit. Huge thanks to my old friend @gavinsblog.bsky.social for these kind words and appeal on behalf of my family. Love each other. Be kind

If a celebrity backs away from supporting certain causes because they perceive them as jeopardising their career or livelihood, but have gladly thrown their weight behind other causes, that should tell you something about the motives behind their support and the depth of their commitment.

A big thanks to the people protesting THAT PIG in Doonbeg. As always Sarah Clancy able to get to the heart of the matter. Reminding us of the terrible attrocities prepatrated by the united states of terror on ordinary citizens. Both directly or indirectly.

Good news, everyone! I have a short piece coming out in The Conversation on Monday that explains the main issues with this study. It's impossible for me to have the same media reach as the original press release. So I'd be extremely grateful if people could help me share it as widely as possible 🙏

I think it’s important to draw attention to small acts of courage and dissent (like this NYT ad and the message from the VT ski resort social media manager) that remind people of the range of possibilities for standing up, speaking out, and fighting back.

Few weeks ago, the Irish Tattler emailed me to say I'd won their media award, asking me to attend to accept it, I said I couldn't attend on the night, thanking them. I see that they gave the award to another person just because of that. Not that I care one bit, but still seems like bad practice.
