Irish expats in Berlin know that you cant go around town without hearing someone talk in an Irish accent. But did you know that you can also find historical and cultural Irish connections all over Berlin? I have mapped them out for you. A 🧵 with some highlights!

guys who talk about how much they love eating pussy and then are not very good at eating pussy

you mention veganism once and suddenly everyone is an inuit whale-hunting disabled person with ARFID living in a food desert

@Dies16620135 @lala_larou @Oh_Fallada Weil Menschen mit anderem Werdegang nicht fleißig sind? Was für ein Unsinn.

OUT: work wife
IN: corporate cousin (surface level small talk, knowing looks when authority figures act a little crazy, accidentally get drunk around them at an event and discover each others interiority never to be discussed again)

You guessed it folks, it’s the personification of Death from the 1957 Swedish thriller “Seventh Seal”

This display hits different when you live in the exact same flat built by the exact same state but now it has wood-chip landlord wallpaper and you have to send half your monthly income to a Swedish company in order to live there

Now more than ever, it's important that you scroll social media as much as possible! Especially if it's full of something upsetting that you have no power to change. You should use your one wild and precious life to Monitor The Situation

Dear @vonderleyen,

This is urgent.

In 2024, I did the My Voice, My Choice hand gesture cuz I believe the EU can be what the US refuses to be: a leader for both women's rights & democracy.

What's happened since is incredible. But what might happen this week is devastating.

You know who actually had a rough week? No Other Land’s Palestinian director Hamdan Ballal whose family was just attacked again by Israeli settlers at the West Bank. A film that premiered at the Berlinale 2 years ago and won the Oscar last year yet the festival has not made a single statement to support their artists and condemn the violence.

[danisha carter @danishacarterr]

in the conversation of "how is the standard for everything so bad now", "how is the discourse so bad now", "why has everything become so toxic", don't forget to include esteemed traditional publications that once existed as gatekeepers who volunteer to amplify and legitimize horrific people.

a week ago he was in a nightclub 'heiling' hitler, a week before that freely calling black models 'niggers' and this week.. GQ!

[JD Vance @JDVance]

Remember when we learned that our wealthiest and most powerful people were connected to a guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring? And then that guy died mysteriously in a jail? And now we just don't talk about it.

[Mark Ruffalo @MarkRuffalo]

To suddenly have politics be a no go discussion at the Berlinale is a little weird. Especially at the very moment when everyone WANTS them to say something to remind the world they actually are artists. 😄

Since last year, we’ve been reporting on ICE extensively. But every week brings new information, and it’s getting harder to keep track of what’s happening, let alone remember what’s already happened.

So here’s a quick thread to help.
