It’s HotHouse week in @nerve_centre. We’ll be working with groups of young musicmakers on songwriting and performance skills culminating in a stage at @Stendhalireland Festival this weekend. They’ve yet to hit a drum or strike a chord but it’s going to be a special one. Up music!

[Dr Conor Reidy FRHistS @ReidyConor]

It says a lot about the evolution of the Irish Army's attitude toward the abuse of women that Cathal Crotty's superior vouched for him. And then the judge issues a no-consequence sentence as custody would have ruined his career. A patriarchal authoritative clique closing ranks.

[Jess Dunne @Tada_Jess]

We need to have a serious national conversation about why character references carry more weight than the testimonies of women. If you continue to beat someone who's on the ground, and go on to boast about beating them on social media, it ceases to be "out of character" surely.

[The Blindboy Podcast @bbboatclub]

Sick to my stomach reading this. BTW the same judge gave a man 7 years in prison for growing and selling cannabis
