It’s a mark of the corruption of our whole way of thinking about the world that trying to meet a planetary emergency is routinely described as “ideological”, while continuing to accelerate it is presented as “pragmatic” and “economic”.

also this "elite" culture of abuse in school and university, either of each other or together of other people, is often part of building upper-class solidarity doing horrible things together binds these people, and they'll have each other's backs when they do more horrible things again in future

ok great, what about all the fossil fuel companies that have been cooking the planet, pushing up energy bills and poisoning everyone's air? they've been at that for a while and the only consequence for them seems to have been increasing profits

hope the irish men's football team will take a good look at themselves they're honestly not likely to ever touch real glory from the sport, but they have a chance to become moral heroes by refusing to play israel history will remember those who stood against genocide more than some footballers

3 years in and the bbc is still pulling this nonsense for them, hamas attacks israel and kills a definite number of people but israel doesn't attack palestine, it launches an offensive in it it doesn't kill people, but people may be killed during it how many? a subject for debate
The armed Palestinian group Hamas attacked Israel on 7 October 2023, killing about 1,200 people and taking 251 hostages.

In response, Israel launched a massive military offensive in Gaza, during which more than 73,000 people have been killed, according to the territory's Hamas-run health ministry, whose figures are considered reliable by the United Nations (UN).

thinking about the phrase "dutch courage", and it's incredibly odd, because if you've ever met any dutch people you have probably noticed that they are not really inhibited in any way that stops them doing or saying whatever they like

There’s a place in Clare which the English call Lisfarbegnagommaun. In Irish it is called Lios Fear Beag na gCamán, the ring fort of the tiny hurley-wielding men. Some say that mushrooms growing nearby made the little lads visible.

companies who make their money from oil, gas or coal – or for transport or electricity burning it – should not be allowed to advertise tobacco advertising is banned/severely restricted because of how dangerous the product is, it's time to apply that same logic to the filth cooking our planet

i do always enjoy despairing at job ads that use lots of internal language or acronyms, unintelligible to anyone applying externally but i think a job for a 'diplomatic mission' without saying who (which country, presumably) you'd be working for, that's a new one
Diplomatic Mission in Brussels is looking for a Trade Policy Advisor

yep there's a big difference between "let's *also* talk about energy bills and energy security" and "let's *only* talk about bills and security" it's great to discuss other angles of the fossil-fuel/climate problem, but staying silent on the massive danger of global heating is not smart
