Does Simon Harris actually understand the term 'dog whistle'? It appears not. www.thejournal.ie/leaders-ques...

Fair play to this lady. She changed our country for the better. www.thejournal.ie/readme/may-m...

So, I am thinking of escaping from a military stocktake to the Los Angeles underground? Please advise.

Okay, who is betting that Yates was underpaying and mistreating his secretary? This is meticulously detailed! www.ontheditch.com/ivan-yates-l...

Something nice happened, for once: www.thejournal.ie/dail-applaud...

Every minute without a strong statement from the Irish government about the arson and attempted murder in Drogheda is another minute of silent acquiescence to the far right - by remaining silent, the govt is making it very clear which side they are on. Everyone who is here, belongs here. #SpeirGorm

"Israeli ministers appeared more concerned about finding who leaked the video [of guards raping a Palestinian prisoner] rather than the heinous contents ... The incident was just one of countless instances of torture and abuses commmitted by Israeli guards against Palestinians, reports have found."

www.thejournal.ie/ivan-yates-f... No indeed! How would an established gombeen man be attached to other gombeen men? You could not make it up! As fast as you run, Matt Cooper, you will never run fast enough. Just saying. Buh bye!

www.thejournal.ie/drogheda-ipa... Hmm. Minister? How much are we fucking paying you?

While acknowledging the great work she did for the homeless, I do recall a documentary or article from years ago where someone reported SA to her at the door of the convent in Kilkenny and she shut the door in her face.

Okay, I have read this article three times and my reading comprehension skills are failing me. WTAF? www.thejournal.ie/asylum-seeke...

Extraordinary violence unfolding in Darfur

It takes a strange sort of worldview to watch the Irish public elect a socialist, with the largest mandate in the history of the state, and conclude that what they really want is a tougher line on immigration.

musk did another unspeakable, inexcusable racism that i'm not gonna spread around but delete your twitter no money for musk no money for nazis

Oh dear, Ivan Yates, the failed bookie/broadcatster/politician who wanted to smear the bejaysus out of Connolloy, has now been revealed to be some sort of 'advisor' to Jim Gavin. God Bless. It is never the ones you most suspect of being the owner of the fakely haunted theme park!!!

This is fucking terrifying! www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWir...

www.thejournal.ie/irish-activi... Disgusting, if not surprising. What on earth happens to Palestinians in these prisons must be much worse. Terrifying.

Subtle? www.thejournal.ie/government-a...

you know how Bath, England has jane austen parties? there should be one (1) hotel in Yorkshire that has a “haunt the moors” package. book it and they take you out to a field and give you a nightgown and candelabra and just let you go ham. charge $500 for a photo package. whatever. it’ll print money.

Fine Gael's post election analysis

Well, this is very disappointing. I had assumed that the absolutely justified backlash against her 2023 statement might have made her sit down and have a bit of a think about her life and her choices. Nope, she's apparently doubled and quadrupled down. politicsdancingxyz.substack.com/p/the-truth-...

Beautifully petty timing! www.thejournal.ie/sean-kelly-n... Vote early, vote Connolly!

I mean, I draw the line at barbarously torturing animals, but in my youth rural pursuits meant rolling a bunch of bales together and playing tig on them. That, now, I could get behind, but given that Humphreys stands for animal cruelty I will be voting Connolly for President tomorrow.

🗣️ “If a fox is being ripped limb from limb and is dying a slow and agonising death - how can you say you abhor animal cruelty?” 🗣️ “These are rural pursuits and have been for many, many years.” Heather Humphreys discusses her support for fox hunting and hare coursing. #TheBigInterview

pour one out for george soros and the brutal writer’s cramp he must have from signing all those checks

Shocking stuff. Humphries is a disgrace.

Reserves for every blood type are critically low, with only B+ being close to the bare minimum. You can literally save a person's life by donating as soon as you can. giveblood.ie 🩸 #Ireland #Áras25

What a tactless piece to write. Retirement his biggest mistake? Bigger than, say, being a domestic abuser? Why an article about him and not his wife or his crimes? www.bbc.com/sport/rugby-...

See?!? Imagine being so evil as to tell not tell the tourists that while interfering in a case of animal cruelty on behalf of the abuser... Oh wait, that was Heather Humphreys. Damn. #SmearTheBejaysus

I am voting for the whimsy! And against animal cruelty (*cough, look up HH's record on that*). www.thejournal.ie/readme/surre... Good Lord, looking at that photo, have either of them ever shaken anyone's hand before? It looks like the prelude to a Judo move

Catherine Connolly insists the Luas is not in fact free. #Smearthebejaysus

Am only catching up now on the animal cruelty story about FG candidate for President, Heather Humphreys. She sent a letter to the Dept of Agriculture, about a live legal case regarding ‘stomach churning’ animal cruelty, on behalf of the farmer involved. The case was then dropped.

So HH has pissed off Gaelgoirs , #disabled people and it seems dog owners. www.instagram.com/p/DPeqZFUiCH... #Áras25 #speirgorm #Aras25

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

One of my favorite anecdotes from THE PREHISTORY OF THE FAR SIDE: "That doesn't sound like the Jane Goodall we know."

Patting myself on the back for that steak and baked potato dish. Fucking immense! It is v rare that I cook meat since himself went veggie ten odd years ago, but there are days when you just really fancy a bit of schhteak. I halved an Aldi sirloin: made stroganoff yesterday & straight up steak today.

Making pterodactyl noises. One of my best friends talked off the ledge. Phew.

The NTA’s 2024 Travel Survey is out. Car use is rising. Active and public transport are stagnant. The consequences aren’t future risks — they’re here, for our health and the planet. And make no mistake: this isn’t policy failure. It’s policy intent, locally and nationally.

40 years ago today THE JOURNEY OF NATTY GANN was released in theaters. The depression-era adventure introduced the world to Meredith Salenger and stands as an underrated gem buried in the dark age of Disney.
