guestposter - 10:35 Sun Dec 21, 2025 All examples welcome in comments. One Sunday Independent columnist offers this: Not even suing the BBC for bias ? an organisation which richly deserves to be sued, if ever there was one ? can possibly make up for (Trump) being so cruel. What to make of this? It was billed as the showdown that had … Continue reading "Sunday and other stupid statements from this week"
WorldbyStorm - 10:17 Sat Dec 20, 2025 Good piece in the Examiner interviewing Stuart Bailie, once of the NME, about his career. I had no idea he was originally from Belfast and that he’d started out literally walking in to help be a roadie for the Clash in that city in October 1978 when they arrived at the Ulster Hall. In fact … Continue reading "The music magazines"

Global temperatures rising well above 4C by 2100 could happen if climate action collapses or if there are strong feedback loops such as the Amazon … Continue reading "Climate crisis: Flooded, scorched and possibly frozen"
WorldbyStorm - 07:33 Fri Dec 19, 2025 Troubling piece here in the Guardian about how the current influenza wave is causing significant challenges to health services. The WHO said on Wednesday that at least 27 of the 38 countries in its European region were reporting ?high or very high influenza activity?, with more than half of patients with flu-like symptoms testing positive … Continue reading "Learning from the pandemic"
WorldbyStorm - 06:59 Fri Dec 19, 2025 That’s the thought that comes to mind reading this latest news: The GAA president Jarlath Burns has confirmed that he was approached to run for Áras an Uachtaráin for the recent Irish Presidential election but declined. Addressing the Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communication, Culture and Sport yesterday as part of an integration delegation discussing … Continue reading "Is there anyone in public life who wasn’t approached or put themselves forward for the Presidential election?" |
