I want to give credit to my editors, who asked me to write 2,000 words on why Andrew Tate wears such tight pants. I submitted 3,700. They asked if I really needed to start with a story about the industrial revolution and I said "yes, absolutely don't cut."

I don't post much, but my husband died in his sleep last night. Only 56. Neighbours have been fantastic, but now I'm alone in the house. I can't believe this, it's not real. I love you Conrad!

I’ve spent most of my life steeped in anxiety, and one thing that made me feel less alone was knowing how unsurprisingly not new anxiety and related experiences are.

It’s in fragments, but this is one of many clay texts from ancient Mesopotamia that describes anxiety (possibly depression)

Hope everyone in the United States is paying attention and taking notes on how fast a coup happens. Korean military is now on the ground protecting the autocrat not the people.

Far Right doing badly in Irish Election, despite massive promotion*.

Really useful indication of where the far right are, in terms of % of the first preference in the boxes opened, per constituency. Ireland is bucking the trend of European countries turning to far right.
🧵 How far-right/National Alliance candidates are doing based on mid-morning tallies #GE24.

These will likely have changed by the time most people read them, but give an indication of the state of play this morn.

Have also omitted some candidates in constituencies where no data was available yet.

An absolute first, surely, for Ireland. We finally have so many women elected to represent us that one has even given birth on election day. Congratulations Holly Cairns and welcome to your baby daughter
