Huge thank you to President Biden and First Lady Dr Jill Biden for having us as their guests at The White House over the course of a week during March. This collaboration was a year in the making on our end and was the honour of a lifetime to see through. 🇮🇪🇺🇸 @WhiteHouse @POTUS

Wild to think Apollo footage was something you only caught when the networks decided to air it. A few minutes here, a highlight reel there, and that was your window into humanity leaving Earth. Now I’m literally watching Artemis’ Orion crew cruise toward the Moon live, in real time, from a device in my hand. Continuous HD video from deep space like it’s nothing. People in 1969 would’ve called this witchcraft. We’re witnessing the most advanced human spaceflight ever attempted, as it happens, and it still doesn’t get the awe it deserves. This is incredible.

We deserve to see nothing but things like this in the news

UPDATE: NASA personnel are now carrying Ryan Gosling (sedated) to the launchpad.

I don't know whether you guys are history buffs, but this is quite a turnabout for both parties

@Mick_Finnegan Mick, massive fair play!

From inner city Dublin to the cobblestones of the Netherlands. 958 days sober. What once felt impossible is now my everyday life. I fucking love the life I’m slowly building for myself. Sobriety gave me more than freedom. It gave me a future 😊 #nederland #holland #soberlife

This is the life Tolstoy longed for, the one he tried to get us to recognize through both Anna Karenina and War and Peace; it is not fame, passion, war, success that bring meaning, but the simple beauty of hard work in a field beneath an autumn sun, a wife and child waiting at home, a glass of wine, a beloved book, the worn hand of a grandmother, the peace of a life that is rich with moments.

Every night human beings go to sleep, lose all sense of their known reality, plunge into an abstract hyper-dimensional realm of infinite experience where time collapses, all moments instantly manifest, and then they wake up and just go about their day.

Here’s Rory Stewart talking a lot of sense about the Iran war: “We need to get out immediately. Every day this continues, it gets closer to a global economic meltdown and closer to a much bigger conflict and the beginnings of a third world war.”

Project Hail Mary is an out of body experience. World class visuals blended with the most unusually beautiful friendship that keeps on giving It’s truly transcending. Mesmerising in every sense. And what i’m left with is one the absolute greatest theatre experiences of my life.

There are only 30 locations in the world that have IMAX 70mm screen. Unfair.

you want a break from cruelty and stupidity? Instead a moment of joy and beauty? This is it

This is, in fact, an important historical moment: you can see that the editor-in-chief of this very respected newspaper is virtually speechless in the face of such a significant reality. With her level of knowledge, and her leadership of a major news publication, it is impossible that she is unaware of what's going on, yet she appears almost at a loss for words when confronted with such a simple matter. — She dares not call Gaza a Genocide and a humanitarian catastrophe. — She chooses to begin by discussing Hamas’s attack on Israel (this is how Israel apologists start: you do not confront your own crime, but find excuse for why you do it.) — She first states that Gaza is "a disaster for Israel". (Yes, history has shown that the Holocaust was also a disaster for the Nazis and Germany. Does that even need emphasizing?) — She certainly lacks the courage to condemn Israel on both legal and moral grounds. We all know that in serious historical research, one cannot avoid taking moral positions when it comes to serious matters of right and wrong. The same applies to journalism. What unfolds before your eyes is the utter hypocrisy and moral bankruptcy of mainstream Western media. This also explains why people are abandoning these outlets. And in the midst of this collective moral collapse, Tucker Carlson has become the "conscience" of the media—simply because he possesses just a little more common sense, honesty, and humanity than these utterly hypocritical institutions.

Former President of Ireland Mary Robinson says we can't have "double standards" with the international rule of law. She compares the criticism of Putin invading Ukraine with the U.S. and Israel's strike on Iran, which she says very few countries have spoken explicitly about it.

He literally explained Why you need to become an out-of-control maniac.

Would like to meet the fun and whimsy civil servant who decided to make a public health warning look like a shitty DICE listing because it somewhat related to a club, and then proceeded to make around 5 typos
