MM in July 2025 on why the gov are delaying the #OTB: "“It’s not commercial, like it’s putting bread and butter on people’s table,” he said, noting the presence of “hundreds of thousands” of jobs in Ireland linked to multinational employers." Of course this delay with X is about FDI. #IrishPol

🧵Just to say i'm sharing this as set against d background of having one off measures removed in budget '26 for me this was €1400 with no permanent cost of #disability payment to replace it. #Disability #DisabilityRights #Spéirgorm @newschambers.bsky.social told to apply for emergency needs payment -

El*n fks around, leaders let his company defile & abuse children & women yet there are no real repercussions. It’s all talk, no action 🤦🏾‍♀️ Ban from the App Stores, prosecute for crimes already committed under Irish legislation & shut it down. #spéirghorm #IrishPol #CSAM #Grok

Are there any modern bands that have strong guitars? Putting a list together for one of my offspring who is loving guitar music but it’s all very 90s/00s. Would genuinely appreciate some input #speirgorm #music #guitar #help #thanks

A #painting from a few years ago. "Listowel" is a County Kerry town I've done a few paintings of, but this particular painting came out of a time I was cycling in north Kerry and having the time of my life. Mind you in fairness whenever I'm in north Kerry I have the time of my life. #art #SpeirGhorm

A change to Ireland’s immigration policy, which will force refugees to wait three years before they can seek family reunification, has been dubbed “performative cruelty” by Social Democrats TD Gary Gannon. #Speirgorm dublinpeople.com/news/northsi...

Green Party members on Dublin City Council have called on the council and its services to stop using Twitter in light of the ongoing Grok AI scandal on the platform #Speirgorm dublinpeople.com/news/dublin/...

I've signed this petition calling for the government to shut down X for producing sexual abuse images. Will you do the same? my.uplift.ie/petitions/sh... @uplift.ie #speirgorm #twitter

The Deputy leader of this government is telling an outright lie in order to stir up racial hatred and build support for more oppressive laws This is a dangerous dangerous path we are going down. #speirghorm

This is from just 1 month ago from same Minister who's now shrugging his shoulders about CSAM. He wants us to submit sensitive personal data to tech companies as a "digital ID". Same companies producting CSAM. "We're allowing children access to some of the most heinous material online." #speirgorm

"We have to post on X" say the people with thousands of followers and tens of views. #Speirgorm

They're hoping Grok gets moved on to a new parish.

when was the last time you saw a government flounder this much? over an issue which there should be zero moral hesitation? #speirgorm

We'll hear from Minister Niamh Smyth at some point later today... maybe she'll have heard back from X... But if the policy is keep feeding the digital crocodiles in the hope that they eat us last, I'm not sure that's a cogent policy position.

There are real people, real women, real girls whose images have been edited by grok at the request of users. This is not some fictionalised, nebulous harm. That the 'adults in the room' and 'rules-based order' governments are humming and hawwing over taking a firm line on this is extraordinary

This minister seems to believe that the State has no responsibility with regards to preventing a company, based here in Ireland, from providing the tools by which child sexual abuse material has been generated by its own paid subscribers. A truly bizarre thing to say. jrnl.ie/6921190

Section 5(1)(f) of the Child Trafficking and Pornography Act 1998 (as amended) makes it a criminal offence to knowingly facilitate the production or distribution of sexualised images of children. The problem here isn't the law - it's the political willingnesss to enforce it against X.

As part of the Good Friday Agreement, Northern Ireland’s police force (The RUC) was abolished and a new one, the Police Service of Northern Ireland was established under a radically new model of policing, recruitment training & oversight. They disbanded the Police to try to achieve policing.

This grok stuff is making clear ONCE AGAIN how badly compromised our democracy is from 40years of FDImaxxing

Is @garygannontd.bsky.social the first TD to divest from X/Twitter? finally, after how many years of filth, I can't believe it has taken this long #speirgorm

No matter what you’re currently doing you should stop and (try to) read this. A contender for the worst-written article I’ve ever seen and also just barking mad! Does the Irish Mirror have no sub-editors?! #speirgorm (and hat-tip to @apiln.bsky.social)

Yikes, something all schools should be rapidly taking account of wrt SM if the school has a SM presence. (Not limited to X. All photos on the internet can now be put through this thing.) Any opinions on prevalence of X use by Irish schools #speirgorm?

You just know these "older family members" will continue to vote for Fianna Fail and Fine Gael.

I'm running an experiment where I've added a photo of a gorilla's arse at 2% opacity over any new images I post in the hopes of polluting any use of my work in AI training data. Almost imperceptable to the human eye but hopefully cumulative in gen AI.

When Catherine Connolly said the US was a volatile imperial power, the people kicking up most fuss weren't the people who didn't believe her. They were the people who know she's right and don't want to piss off the volatile ass we're kissing in the name of foreign direct investment #spéirgorm
