Open warfare on the rule of international law being waged by the US in order to whitewash a genocide by Israel is where we are at in the rapidly unraveling world of 2026.

A reminder that this legislation was passed at Final Stage by 129 votes to 10, with every political party bar Ind. Ireland supporting. This headline shows: > Enormous over-reach by officialdom on an unequivocal democratic mandate, > The craven backtracking of FFG in this gvt on climate action.

Thoughts on the dead singer. Yesterday, my middle aged straight hairy biker son went on one on social media about the dead singer and those eulogising him. He did not hold back. What was unusual was that he took to social media to vent knowing it would attract vile bile. I asked him why.
Isn't it weird how alleging dodgy behaviour when someone is alive is met with threats of defamation lawyers and doing it when they're dead is undignified and unfair. It's almost as if, stay with me on this, people just don't want to know.

Goya rightly gets a lot of love for his Black Paintings, this slightly earlier work is another of my faves, The Burial of the Sardine (1812–1819). Love how it grows increasingly sinister the more details you pick out, the masked revellers surrounding the grinning 'King of the Carnival'...
Palestine activists called terrorists. Trans avtivists called terrorists. Racist rioters are called patriots Transphobes called women's rights campaigners. Bigots framed as the good guys. Good guys framed as terrorists. This no accident. This is fascist propaganda at work.
