Looks like republic of Ireland players may be going to refuse to play Isreal. Couldn't be more proud of the players, and more ashamed of the fai for putting them in position of making the decision. #fai #palestine

Israel has been found guilty today in Geneva of war crimes including extermination, forcible transfer, starvation, torture and false imprisonment, sexual violence including rape... and many more If it was any other country than Israel all of Europe would boycott them. Instead there will be silence

Football Association of Ireland have agreed to play Isreal. The players now have an opportunity to do something bigger than football: line up v Isreal, and immediately after kick off just walk back to the dressing room, leaving the Israeli team in an entirely empty stadium. Would be a powerful image

I'm a little sceptical of this. Apps have centralized servers, not millions of little servers for localities. It is hard to see how an area having a lot of activity (assuming that the premise is correct) would crash Grindr in Dallas, and only Dallas.

The ads for Belmayne: not, as you might think, some kind of louche VIP sex club, but a housing estate beside the big Tesco on the Malahide Road.
An ad for a housing estate that inexplicably shows a man leaning over an Irish Model(tm) who is sprawled "sexily" all over a kitchen worktop. The caption reads "Something's cooking @ Belmayne"

Bordeaux, France, has now recorded more days above 40°C in 2026 alone than during the entire 105-year period from 1920 (when observations began) to 2025. This is deeply shocking.

How are things in Toulouse? Well, we've our 3rd major heatwave since may, temperatures of 41/42⁰C by day, 22⁰ by night, drinking water shortages, small rivers running dry, the main river too hot to cool the nuclear plant, and the highest wildfire risk possible, I'd say things are climate breakdown.
