From 2016-2017, NI had 823 reports of rape. Of this number, there were 15 convictions. Lowest in the UK. This narrative of “women should go to jail for false rape accusations” needs replaced with “men should go to jail for rape” as they very clearly don’t.

This viral tweet and accompanying video is a textbook example of how racists distort and manipulate media to incite pile-ons.

Their target seems to be a lovely young woman but she isn't white and that's all the excuse these racists need.

Here's the truth behind the video: /1

Review: @Lucy__Gaffney - sittingbugs

Listening to sittingbugs feels akin to those groggy yet comfortable mid-morning starts, the sun peeking through the curtain crack. You’re hopeful for the day ahead.

Rest in peace, James Earl Jones. One of the most powerful, evocative, emotional voices in cinema history. This is the first scene that came to mind, it’s one of my favorites of all time.

Super to talk to @PhoebeComiskey about ‘Uppa Women’ for @VIEWdigital! ✨

Is there literally any other language where people question the phonetics of a language as much as Irish?

[JOE.ie @JOEdotie]

The case of a soldier, Cathal Crotty (22) who brutalised a woman, Natasha O’Brien (24) in a random street attack and walked free from court has prompted protests across Ireland.

Large crowds of people marched in Cork, Dublin, Galway and Limerick today to show solidarity with Natasha O’Brien, 24, who has become a symbol of the legal system’s handling of gender-based violence.

Send me a message - working on something creative for Sudan and Palestine.

Relieved to hear the Health Minister will be extending funding for specialist counselling services for survivors of sexual abuse provided by @Nexus_NI

I raised this issue in the Assembly this morning - hopefully this news will provide reassurance to those impacted 👇

Been thinking about this video nonstop since I watched it. It’s like the world’s most perfect sitcom plot point but unfortunately that is her real life

[Phoebe Comiskey @PhoebeComiskey]

@deep_dusk Aw definitely - mysticism is the word! I kept thinking spiritualism but you’re just right. Even just being able to say “isn’t that a nice wee thing!” Is lovely

[Phoebe Comiskey @PhoebeComiskey]

Strange little X app, what are people’s opinions on coincidence?
This morning I had some bad luck with something followed an hour later by incredibly good luck relating to that same something.
This morning I also finished a book I was reading, and I’m now watching it on film4.

[Phoebe Comiskey @PhoebeComiskey]

@deep_dusk Love this Matt! So true, I think in my case receiving good news or feeling good about finishing a book made those lil moments of coincidence feel great. Ego inflation but also interesting to think about the universe as an active wee messer

[Phoebe Comiskey @PhoebeComiskey]

Does anyone have any takes on or ideas about that sort of thing? A sign? Nothing at all? Pure luck?
I’d be interested in doing a bit of reading too, flesh out these weird experiences

[Phoebe Comiskey @PhoebeComiskey]

@Translink_NI I just wonder that there isn’t the technology to make that information a bit more accessible to the customers? Frustrating as I would’ve been quicker walking to work this morning

[Phoebe Comiskey @PhoebeComiskey]

@Translink_NI why do some of your buses not show up? Is there a way this could be communicated on the app?
