OTD May 24, 1974 the brilliant Diamond Dogs album by David Bowie was released. 3 weeks later, I would go to see the most awe-inspiring rock show ever, the Diamond Dogs tour in Toronto 🇨🇦, my first of many Bowie concerts! ⚡️

IRISH MP RICHARD BOYD BARRETT GOES NUCLEAR ON GOVERNMENT: Israel Is Shooting at Irish Citizens & Kidnapping Them, Where Are the Sanctions?!

What crime does Israel have to commit before you act?

There would be immediate uproar and sanctions if Russia did this. But because it’s Israel; committing genocide, apartheid, torture, and now seizing European citizens, your government imposes ZERO SANCTIONS and even votes against the sanctions bill.

One of the most terrifying images in history: a transformation from life to death.

Gaza in 2023 and 2026!

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

In 1705, an Irish woman named Marjorie McCall fell gravely ill with a fever in Lurgan, Ireland. Believing she had died, her family hastily buried her to prevent the spread of contagion. Her husband, John McCall, a local physician, had been unable to remove her valuable ring because her finger was badly swollen — a detail that soon attracted the attention of grave robbers.

That same night, body snatchers dug up the fresh grave. Unable to pull the ring from her finger, they began cutting it off. The sudden flow of blood shocked the still-living Marjorie out of her deep coma. She sat upright in the coffin and screamed, terrifying the robbers, who fled and reportedly never returned to their grim trade.

Covered in dirt and still wearing her burial clothes, Marjorie climbed out of the grave and walked home. When she knocked on the door, her husband John, still in mourning, jokingly remarked that if his wife were alive, he would swear it was her at the door. Upon opening it and seeing Marjorie standing before him — alive, bleeding, and in her shroud — he collapsed from shock and died on the spot.

John McCall was later buried in the grave originally dug for his wife.

Marjorie survived the ordeal, eventually remarried, and had several children. When she died many years later, she was laid to rest in Shankill Cemetery in Lurgan. Her headstone famously reads:

“Lived Once, Buried Twice.”

There has never been a war in history where 80% of the country has been destroyed, 100% of the population displaced, and 50% of the deaths children.

Call it what it is: GENOCIDE.

In just one month, these Lebanese journalists were killed by Israeli strikes while doing their jobs. Their voices were silenced, but their work remains. 🕯️

Israel has killed this woman.

Her name was Amal Khalil.

This is how a blue whale feeds her baby underwater.

Blue whale nursing is a fascinating feat of underwater engineering. Since calves can’t "latch" and suckle like land mammals (they’d swallow too much saltwater), the process is more like a high-pressure injection.

When the calf is ready, it nudges the area, and the mother uses her abdominal muscles to voluntarily squirt the milk into the calf's mouth.

The milk is incredibly rich—about 35% to 50% fat. This gives it a consistency similar to soft butter or toothpaste, which helps it stay in a cohesive clump underwater rather than dissolving.

The calf curls its tongue into a "U" shape to create a straw-like funnel, ensuring the nutrient-dense milk goes straight down its throat.

This high-speed feeding allows a calf to drink over 200 liters of milk a day, gaining about 90 kg (200lbs) every single 24 hours.

“I received direct threats targeting me on my phone from the Mossad, from the Israelis, and they threatened to kill me.”

Families of Iranian school children killed in the US-Israel attack in Minab wrote to Pope Leo XIV, urging him to "give voice" to their children's plight and advocate for lasting peace.

Moya Brennan, the singer of this haunting tune has passed on.

Talents like hers live on in the music and culture of a Nation, a music and culture she's now forever embedded in.

Sad to hear of the passing of Moya (Maire) Brennan from Clannad. Such a talented songwriter and musician.

Never actually watched Harry's Game, but like many children of the 80s, the theme is etched in the memory… thanks to that beautiful, ethereal voice.
