Ooooooh I would not be able to bake banana bread, I would be far too busy gazing at this little floofy collie-shaped baby 😍

Omg 😭😂 That is a thing of surreal beauty! Also, I am so happy for you that your Kid1 is also attuned the joys of seasonal weirdnesses...

Hope is forged through class struggle & direct action. Optimism is built by understanding our history & that when we fight we win.

Reject the naïve toxic optimism & magical thinking of “everything is going to work out fine”. That is centrism spitting in your face. The system has always been broken.

One time I saw Rachel and Keir hunched over eating spaghetti bolognese off the floor with their bare hands. They both looked at me and said "join us". I replied no and they immediately grabbed a handful of spaghetti and started to gallop on all fours with red Bolognese sauce dripping from their face

Restaurant staff are tough as nails. They have been forged in the fires of the worst of humanity

You only have as much rights as the most-vulnerable member of society, so you should make sure that most-vulnerable member of society does not lose any of their rights.

Sometimes it really is that simple.

It is crystal clear that O'Callaghan smells Micheál Martin's blood. He is strategically slicing up social cohesion into roast scapegoat and feeding it like delicious nuggets of divisive special stuff to the FFfash and the swing racists. Pure malicious behaviour.
