With talk of a bigger ballroom with a "massive drone", I can't help but be reminded of this timelapse of Sydney Opera house being built, as a reminder of what our species is capable of. Designed by Jørn Oberg Utzon from Denmark. Bualadh bos Australia.

british unionists in NI are hilarious. they backed brexit and incredibly held the balance of power in the UK when Theresa Mays snap election backfired. In years to come, dictionaries will have "british" as shorthand for incredibly stupid and bonkers strategy. congratulations.
no worries. I think it surprised a lot of people. Mostly the DUP who pushed for a really hard brexit. Journalists in Dublin still wonder if they are working for the "other guys"
correct and in the same breath to suggest there wasn't a colonial hierarchy in place...like there still was in NI until recently, by design, is a gross misrepresentation. the Anglo Irish in NI are still fighting against the Irish language to this day and would not like being called "Irish".
The EU are immensely proud of it. Rightly so. It was a masterclass in diplomacy. Persuading the British it was their idea was genius. Remember the "hand of history" speech from Blair? 21 years later, Leo explains to Boris how complicated the whole brexit thing will be with NI. Sound On. 2/2
Source of the clip is LunaCrafts AI which uses engineering plans & sketches to recreate how structures were created. Love the detail in this i.e. how Basílica de la Sagrada Família was constructed in Barcelona...e.g. the row of shops outside being removed and replaced with steps as it is today.
As chatter of triggering Article 49 (to join the EU) starts in the UK, adopting the Euro, Schengen and other optouts the UK previously had as a member, are the least of their worries. In Ireland, we're already planning for the collapse of the UK Union & Reunification in Ireland. 6/6
oh I agree. Journalists in Dublin still wonder if NI Unionists are "working for the other guys"!
in Norn Iron...british unionists have a thing about pineapple & cheese on a stick.
this is the sort of airbrushing that is worrying. It would be more correct to say a certain hierarchy came with Colonialism that helped divide & rule. Fun fact: the "Irish" who benefitted most from the partition of Ireland Darlymple mentions do not like to be called Irish.
The Canadian Tank Museum exists to honour the service and sacrifice of veterans, not to “glorify war or promote conflict,” says executive director Jeremy Blowers. He tells @britweaver.bsky.social it offers a window into Canada’s armoured past, and its ties to today’s defence industry. Tonight at 8pm

X-ray revealed a secret painting hidden beneath this famous artwork - a portrait of a man, possibly a French general or even Joseph Bonaparte, the brother of Napoleon. This is Francisco de Goya's 1823 masterpiece, "Portrait of Don Ramón Satué" - housed at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. #art #mystery

Last night in Belgrade, Russo-Serbian GONGO organizations held a protest using the symbol of the student movement and the regime — the “No Surrender of Kosovo” flag. 🇷🇺/🇷🇸 GONGO structures + student protest symbolism + “not the time for EU flags” = a political field tailored for Aleksandar Vučić. 👇

Trump, ever the grifter, doesn't think he has to pay back the $166 Billion he owes on tariff refunds. "In theory, you have to pay the tariffs back. We'll fight that. But in theory, you have to pay them back." Hey, Trump, how about 'in theory' we stop paying all of our bills, too?!

EXPECTORATION If anyone spat on me it would be the last thing they did I don't know how these worshippers in Jerusalem's holy places allow them to cough up their guts & spit at them. I know Jesus said you should turn the other cheek, but it wasn't so another gob could land on it Follow #MOATS 555
