Bluesky is curated, social media shite for creamy miso pasta-eating, NYT games-playing, millennial shitlibs. I'm not one bit surprised they block Palestinian accounts tbh.

In the early 20th century the Irish language became the teanga of rebellion, of disenfranchisement, of a yearning for an Irish State that cherished the people of Ireland and didn't see us as mere 'subjects' to be ruled, and taxed.
In the 21st century it's happening again.

“When Alison O’Connor warned that the rise of the Irish language might be “creating a them-and-us situation,” she revealed less about the language than about the anxieties of Ireland’s establishment commentariat”

Ireland declaring a permanent universal basic income for artists is the validation creators need — how VITAL our work is. The monetary, cultural, & intrinsic value of art is palpable. THIS is reputable proof of that. How much better would societies run if EVERYONE had a UBI?! It’d be life-changing.

thinking a lot today about the moral cowardice of any nation not following the hard data about Portugal's drugs decriminalisation project. it's the same as data from ubi trials.

Although I'm a fan of Black Sabbath's, I can't say history will judge Ozzy Osbourne well. He was on Israel's side.

New piece from me in @canadiandimension.bsky.social, something that’s deliberately polemical and provocative.
A major backlash to the harms caused by AI is undoubtedly coming. This is a political opportunity - no other party has it on their agenda.

Terrible scenes from Gaza today and last night and NOT A SINGLE FUCKING MENTION OF IT ON BLUESKY. The problem with this place isn't that it's an echo chamber. It's that it hides the truth.
