in 2016, only 47 British MPs & Lords held an Irish passport
- by 2021, that figure went up to 227
- in 2022, there are now 321 of them with an Irish passport

Our ruling class seems to have remained in Europe. People next?

The internet is now being cut in Iran because they don’t want people to see things like this: a man slaps a woman and thinks he can calmly walk away. Where such actions were commonplace before, there are now dire consequences - significantly handed out by other men.

Impressive act of solidarity from Macron!

Chers amis Grecs,
Αγαπητοί φίλοι,

Sounds familiar :)

I just told my daughter that if we can have a woman VP in the White House, then she, too can do anything. Since she's 2 years old, she responded that she would like some chocolate.

Today I suffered a classic “tip of the tongue” lapse. I simply couldn’t remember the name of a very famous mathematician. “You know”, I said, “You must know who I mean, come on, he’s extremely well known, help me, he’s the one who invented Turing machines. Oh yes, Alan Turing.”

Sainthood didn’t become me so I tried children :)

[Naval @naval]

Either have children or become a saint, because eventually, you have to find something you love more than you love yourself.

It is with great pain that I am sharing with you that my 42 year old son was killed in a car crash yesterday. My family and I are mourning and processing and would prefer to be incommunicado for the time being.

Oh, my God! Speaks volumes about how deeply music and its body reaction are engraved in our brain.

Yesterday Slovakia tested half entire nation for Covid-19. 2nd day of testing is today. Those who test positive or choose not to be tested must quarantine. There will also be testing at the borders. Could other countries follow this bold attempt to stop the virus in its tracks?

Pricing is one of the most difficult tasks in entrepreneurship & innovation!

Don't vote for Trump just because you despise the increasing political correctness of the Democrats. Political correctness is a problem, but Trump is a worse one. He's not even an authentic conservative. He only has one guiding principle, and it's clear what that is.

Sur les pancartes place de la République, beaucoup de messages appelant à ne pas avoir peur et à défendre la liberté d’expression coûte que coûte. Une citation d’Albert Camus aussi. #samuelpaty

My PhD supervisor brought a whole box of transparent masks so I could lipread - completely unprompted. I'm crying - inclusivity done right

For the record, Netanyahu is charged, among other things for this contract with ThyssenKrupp too.

Facebook history thread. Feels awkward to compare with what we, users, were doing/thinking during those times

[Dan Rose @DanRose999]

In 2008 Facebook’s user growth hit a wall at 80M and we were having serious debates about whether any social network could ever reach 100M users. 2 years later we had doubled our user base and not long after that we reached 1B users. Here’s how we did it:
