The next president being the β€œopposite of Michael D” shouldn’t mean a reactionary glory-hunter with middling to bad politics, it should mean a tall, slightly scary woman who has cats and hates poetry

There are partial blackouts, but my city is full of life.

Beautiful city and beautiful people who live here.

Yeah, because usually after a busy election campaign they'd be having a deserved day off. Instead all MicheΓ‘l can hear is the sound of sharpening pitchforks in his head.

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

The one time I stop doomscrolling at a reasonable hour so I wake up to get news the old fashioned way.
The front pages of today's Irish Times, Examiner, Daily Mail and Star with the headline of Jim Gavin dropping out of the Presidential race.

With somewhat strange timing upon the passing of ManchΓ‘n Magan, I wrote this piece about the joys of learning and speaking Irish for the Guardian today, which is as ever inspired by ManchΓ‘n’s work.
The Irish language is a joy not a burden: in what other tongue is a penis a wild carrot? | Una Mullally
