Wearing all black to strike fear into the hearts of my enemies

42 years ago today, March 24, 1984….

The 92NY canceled my appearance in late October 2023 after I signed a ceasefire letter and reiterated my support for BDS. But they're ok with having this gentleman, Ilya Shapiro, who seems to like genocide and is vocal about it.

Does this mean we all get discounts on our local property tax too? Or is it just property developers who get rules bent for them all the time Truly irresponsible behaviour by Cork City Council, yet you claim you haven't got enough money for repairing social homes #DerelictIreland #speirghorm

Every second opinion piece these days is "Young people miss the camaraderie and social life of working in an office." and it's written by Europe'e biggest manufacturer of cubicle walls, water coolers and fluorescent lights.

Everyone here really builds their own experience cos I often see posts like "Oh my God I can't believe the really popular account that we all love is a secret racist!" and it's I've never heard of them, or "Wow today's main character is getting destroyed!" and I've no idea what they're talking about

War took everything from us 💔 My little daughter has a severe heart condition 😔 She is getting worse, and I can’t afford her treatment She survived the war… but may not survive this 300€ could save her life, even a small donation can make a difference Molly Shah ✅ chuffed.org/project/1565...

Under tattered fabric, the cold kills us in silence and hunger gnaws at our children's bodies. Our tents are not shelters; they are shrouds where we wait for death. We shiver without covers, we cry without a sound, as the world watches. Save us.. we are dying." chuffed.org/project/161883

A call to support Ahmad and his family today ❤️ as prices rise and crossings remain closed, every donation is a contribution towards their survival. No one should be in this position, so please do what you can even if that’s sharing 🇵🇸 chuffed.org/project/157281

Amusing myself, have started purposely using the wrong emojis in messages with the (much younger than me*) bar staff and going to see how long before any of them says something - or if they ever will cos I'm the boss lol *also too young to be on Bluesky so we're good here

There are three reporters and an editor credited at the bottom of this very short article yet it doesn't even mention that Iran has flatly denied that there have been any talks or any agreement on anything

Always read the small print

Several ambulances belonging to a Jewish volunteer rescue organization were set on fire outside a synagogue in a neighborhood home to London's largest Jewish community, in what police are treating as an antisemitic attack. https://cnn.it/4bomIwM

Lord, I've seen what you've done for other people

The Christian Right are getting everything they wanted from the trans panic so far. Their end game is to enshrine sex differences in law so they can target women's rights. They believe men and women have different roles and should be subjected to different laws. Good luck!

The anti abortion turn by noted gender criticals such as Kathleen Stock manages to be both predictable and shocking at the same time.

I’m linesman at my son’s U16 game in Balbriggan. If the ball goes out there’s a 30 meter cliff about 10m away from the sideline. We’ve just lost one ball so far! (And we haven’t lost any linesmen)

We need to shut the US down till we're figure out what's going on

Hi, political scientist here. Did you know we have an extensive body of research and theory that says if people believe you will violently betray them, they are less likely to enter into an agreement with you? I swear to God I have a real, non-bullshit job.

Democratic consultants: To replicate Mamdani’s success with the young people we must appeal to their short attention spans with memes and TikTok Mamdani (actual quote): In the fifth century in what we now know as Ireland, a British warlord named Coroticus had laid waste to the countryside

The storm tore our shelter, and rain drowned our dreams. Our tent is gone; my kids are shivering under the open sky. 100€ provides a tent—a small price for you, but a whole world of warmth for us. Don’t leave us to the cold. chuffed.org/project/161883

The “Trans people don’t exist” group now wants them all itemized

The two stages of cat: ennui, and thinking about that fucking pigeon. One day his time will come!

My heart burns with pain,&my body bleeds from my injuries; my wounds have become infected following my surgery. I now urgently need £100 for medication. Please do not let me down—for the sake of my 5 kids &my wife, who is a heart patient Vetted @mommunism.bsky.social chuffed.org/project/lobnah

Has the EU made any kind of substantial statement on what the US is doing to Cuba? Has the Irish government?
