offsite link The Wokus Dei Cathedral is Finally Collapsing Thu Feb 27, 2025 19:30 | Will Jones
The Wokus Dei Cathedral is finally collapsing. Almost overnight, MSNBC's primetime audience fell by a staggering 53%, while CNN's fell by 47%. Suddenly, the West's prestige faith has lost its sheen.

The WHO once aimed to help nations stand on their own two feet, but now it mainly pushes the agendas of the rich and powerful, says Dr David Bell. That's why it cares more about experimental vaccines than basic sanitation.

offsite link Is Rishi Sunak English? Thu Feb 27, 2025 16:13 | Eric Kaufmann
Is Rishi Sunak English? Prof Eric Kaufmann says yes, by nationality, but not by ethnicity. It's a subject that typically produces more heat than light, but that's because people don't pin down their terms.

The Elon Musk witch hunt is a key test for the Royal Society, says Prof Abhishek Saha. Activist academics are piling on the pressure to expel the technological pioneer. Does the society stand for science or not?

I picked up a copy of the Northside News today, as the front page news was that my old school, Greendale Community School in Kilbarrack, is closing down. However, rather than supporting the campaigners who are trying to keep the school open, a school which has nurtured and generated a lot of literary and cultural talent in the last couple of decades, Royston Brady is on p. 7 demanding that ararchists, and what he calls 'anti-globalisation extremists', be banned from Dublin on May 1st. ... read full story / add a comment

Because of the increase in USIs affiliation fee to €5 there are now affiliation referendums happening in colleges around the country.

As you may or may not have heard, TodayFM are cutting/Have cut Donal Dineen’s fabulous “Here Comes the Night” Show. The reason given (according to yesterdays Times) was that “the numbers didn’t add up” so predictably enough the commercial Station cut it.

George Bush is to visit Ireland on the 25th and 26th of June 2004. While this is probably just an attempt to win the Irish-American vote, it presents us with an opportunity to link the widespread animosity towards Dubya with the ongoing local resistance to the US war machine. ... read full story / add a comment

As the Prohibition of Marijuana was done for the benefit of health-damaging industries like logging, pulp, chlorine, pesticides, petrochemical plastics, big pharma and the like, so too is the virtually inevitable Prohibition of Tobacco.

Anyone with half a brain can see that Blair lied in order to scare the British (and world) population to support his position on invading Iraq. Yet no matter the phoney platitudes, dodgy evidence and spurious logic he inflicted upon the world, we knew he was talking rubbish. Iraq was not involved in September 11th, it did not have links with al-Qaida, and it had no WMD. The anti-war movement has been vindicated. ... read full story / add a comment

I have long noticed that on sundays I have more free time. I like to see my friends if I can, and share a cup of tea or coffee and reflect on how irrelevant we are to the world of the great.
If i can i listen to music and I also play it, and I think of poetry, the river of my nation which shall always be flowing into the universe.
Today I'm not going to be hysterical nor moved by the flows of emotion I have seen in my home (Spain) as the people have come to their own terms with what happened to us as an extended community. It is time I realised the potential of my own words to disturb, to confuse, and thus to be more _careful_.
Writers too often are no more than their readers' prejudices. ... read full story / add a comment
