Israel kidnapped me on Wednesday morning. I’m out now. We will keep at it for not only a ceasefire, but full justice and self-determination for Palestine. Here’s an article I wrote that was published shortly after I had to throw my phone into the water www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Today is Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

Good morning and happy Indigenous People's Day

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

Marie Kondo-ing our way through fascism.

i'll tell you what's going to be "polarising" – crop losses, coastal flooding, more destruction and extended blackouts like storm éowyn

In addition to being totally pathetic, he's also completely wrong. EPA polls consistently show that the vast majority, across all ages, incomes , urban or rural, all want the government to take action. So by polarising, he must mean that Micheal o Leary,Amazon, and Tirlan don't want it

Uh huh... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environ...

Counting the days until the Trump regime deems inflatable costumes as terrorist "pre-crime".

I heard someone calling him Antiphibian, and I just love it.

’He is not the hero we deserve, but he is the one that we need right now.’

A message from Catherine on World Mental Health Day. As a former clinical psychologist, Catherine has a long legacy of calling for increased investment in mental health services and supports. On 24th October, vote for a President who will be a voice for those who are struggling to find their own.

The best time to unionize was ten years ago. The second best time is right now.

I’m not kidding when I say these weird ass costumes and antics are actually an extremely effective tactic from a media standpoint bc when enough people do them, the media can’t fully scrub them out

A wee message from us 👇

Typical gardaí who've allowed the far-right bigots block roads, stop traffic, discommode people going about the daily lives. But, pro Palestinian marchers get battered & pepper sprayed with vicious intent. Where's the 'softly, softly' approach now?! (Credit Pádraig Drummond)

Hey Bluesky! I figured it would be a good time to show off the game I've been working on for a little while. Introducing TaleKeep, a peasant-hopping castle simulation RPG set in a storybook medieval world.

Just announced at the NEXUS Games Summit, six incredible teams have been awarded the first stage of the Irish Games Fund. We’re delighted to say that the six teams are: - Dreamfeel - ENIGMA Studio - Mystic Systems - Outlier - Pewter Games Studios - Psychic Games www.imirt.ie/news/2025/10...

the flotilla tracker no longer shows any vessels, and the iof claims all but one boat has been intercepted - unclear which one 🙁🙁🙁 flotilla activists are being held in a high-sec prison, NOT normal for immigration detainees

The language of non-consent around AI is really telling. "It's too late to be scared." "It's here whether we want it or not." "You'll have to learn to work with it." "You can't fight the inevitable." All just variations of "you're not allowed to say no." Creepy technology made by creepy people.

🚨Trump Sends Troops to Portland Trump just ordered the military into Portland and ICE detention centers nationwide. He even authorized “full force.” This isn’t law and order, it’s authoritarian rule. Democracy is on the line.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Happy #Hades2 Release Day! 🌙 Here's a look back at all the fanarts we made for our last challenge💚

In the latest anti-worker, anti-young person revelation, the government have been exposed: after promising to scrap sub-minimum wages, they’ve instead bowed to big business and extended the super-exploitation of young workers until at least 2029.

"engaged in an examination of this matter" until people hopefully stop asking about it. We won't stop. Stop the illegal overflights. Stop Irish complicity in genocide.

It’s not enough to talk, our government must act on the genocide. We demand protection for the 22 Irish delegates on the #GlobalSumudFlotilla and call for a legal observer to ensure international law is upheld. These are humanitarians bringing baby formula and aid to starving children in Gaza.

"We also want to work with others to form a left front to give people a clear governmental alternative to FF and FG rule at the next possible opportunity." We need to learn the lessons from #GE24. #KickOutFFFG #SpéirGhorm

A cost-of-living crisis isn't the easiest time to sell art, but: www.ciaraioch.com is where you can support my work, with each archival-quality print on textured heavy paper being produced here in Ireland, shipping internationally in eco-friendly packaging, with free mini-treats in every order 🎁

Great to see! I was really hoping they'd join the other Left parties for a united Left candidate. Let's do this! Maybe it's something that can be built on for the next GE too? Imagine a Left Alliance committing to kicking FG and FF out of govt. #ConnollyForPresident

This decision by Sinn Féin to back Catherine Connolly for president is the right choice. Now, let's get the job done. 🇮🇪🗳 #SpéirGorm #CatherineConnellyForPresident

Did you ever say you'd pay to see me take a hike? Now's your chance! Reply or message me if you'd like to sponsor me for our local fundraiser for the Catherine Connolly for President campaign.

Sinn Féin, Ireland’s largest opposition party, has decided to support Catherine Connolly for president. With the right wing & centre right nominees flailing, this is a shot in the arm for the independent left-winger’s campaign. The three national newspapers, all hard right, will be on the attack! 😉

I welcome the announcements that Sinn Féin and @greenpartyie.bsky.social are backing my candidacy for president of Ireland, I am very much heartened by their support. The coalition of left, centre left parties and independents backing my run for president is a welcome change for Irish politics.

if it's not end-to-end encrypted, it's public

People Before Profit Galway support Catherine Connolly for President. "Catherine’s candidature is a crucial opportunity for the left in Ireland to engage in an transformative and inspirational campaign" pbpgalway.ie/2025/09/15/p...

My newest AP painting :)

RTE have announced that Ireland will not take part in the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest, if Israel are participating. "RTE feels that Ireland's participation would be unconscionable given the ongoing and appalling loss of lives in Gaza," said the broadcaster in a statement #esc #eurovision #esc2026

They droned a second boat. We’re still going to Gaza. Pressure the Irish government any way you can to support the flotilla and sanction the country attacking us
