The situation is that you actually can get raw milk if you really want it, it's just regulated in such a way that normal people don't buy it by accident. But that's not good enough for Bacteria Barry. www.agriland.ie/farming-news...

I'm increasingly disinterested in the All Star seasons. If it wasn't for the YouTube algorithm, I'd have entirely forgotten it was even on.

I think one reason data center outrage is so pronounced is people spent decades recycling and composting and otherwise scrimping to offset energy use and protect clean water, and the second we hit an inflection point for cheap electricity the banking industry said we’re taking all of it, fuck you

Netflix, the company that cancels your favourite series, now with extra AI.

The most democratic state in the Middle East, apparently.

Cf. Síd/Shee placenames/mounds; Giants graves/Wedge Tombs; Diarmuid and Grainne's Beds/Portal Tombs; Plantations, Early Modern Landscape Enclosure, the Famine, all have large parts to play in people forgetting the social memory/landscape they used to live and travel within.

He's going to get that salad diarrhoea, isn't he?

How Ireland will sleep tonight knowing football's not coming home

Mr. Brightside playing at the semi-final of the Men's World Cup? Peak hetero-ness going on.

For a few years after this, even the UK Tory Party seemed to be on the same road. Then a gang of elite media personalities decided that gender-fascism was more fun. And now even the Labour Party is pro-Toilet-Police.

It’s baffling how Net Zero is now being used as a synonym for runaway eco-radicalism that threatens our way of life. But when I made this programme two years ago Net Zero was agreed by all to be common sense and achievable. Listen: 👉 www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

It was French Nazis who were flown in to Belfast. They got drunk, yelled “antifa terrorist” by a bonfire, and wrote in support of a rapist. I have photos and videos of them for journalists who need them. Signal @ Ayoub.02 There’s been a fair few Americans, English and Europeans going to Belfast.

Not France playing poorly on Bastille Day

So tell me, how will the EU respond to this? Another tweet that condems and is deeply concerned but will not name Israel outright?

This is Lawfare, it's designing to shut down not just Amnesty but to strike fear into any organisation or news outlet investigating or reporting on anti trans groups.

Respect the dead who respected the living.

Valentia in Co. Kerry has set a new all time record high temperature of 30.04c today. Records date back to 1860 there!

I'm next to a hetero American couple, in their mid-20s I'd say, on the train back up to Dublin. Her to him: "I dunno if you heard, but Lindsey Graham died." Him to her: "I don't know who that is. Who was she?"

Bayeux Tapestry, gurl, you in danger. It's never coming out of the British Museum ever again.

oh my god French friend and I missed the goal because we were discussing what wine to order next ☠️

[a guy's wife trips on loose paving in front of him, falls, sprains her ankle, and is shouting out in pain] "Hey META Glasses, bro, what just happened lol"

So far this morning, Trump has: 🇮🇷Resumed the war against Iran 🇪🇸Threatened a trade embargo against Spain. 🇬🇱Threatened the territorial sovereignty of Greenland And he's likely in a sour mood since Belgium beat the USA in the World Cup.

At least Leo got to meet Kylie. Taylor doesn't even know he exists.

Happy 10th anniversary of this essay about the dangers of Donald Trump, written by... JD Vance. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Yes, a day for all in the DisUnited States of America.

The people of Gaza would strongly disagree with her.

American Embassy invited a woman who claims that upholstery on seats in Crumlin Children's Hospital contains secret paedophile symbols to 4th of July party. And we're supposed to bow and scrape before this dumbass country.

*prepares a hasty thread on the work of Roger Casement to justify why a victory for DR Congo is also a victory for Ireland*

we take your privacy. seriously

The strait of Hormuz remains closed indefinitely. EU energy reserves are 75% below where they’re supposed to be in July. We’re facing a winter of potential serious discontent, & disruption, so this pig headed insistence by the Irish government is both economically and environmentally illiterate…

This is one of those threads where the lack of a dash between tweets is... Ahem.

If the new customs fees are not charged at the point of sale online, then the delivery company - such as An Post, or DPD - will collect it on behalf of Revenue and the delivery company will charge administration fees of around €7 to do so. Revenue has made clear there will be no refunds.

Through the Insta algorithm, I've often bought clothes from non-EU queer websites. Between this €3 charge, and a likely An Post customs handling charge, it will deffo make me think twice about doing so in the future. Time to start looking for EU-based queer clothing websites!

🌍 At least 191 million people are forecast to endure temperatures of at least 35C on Sunday in Europe, with the heat particularly intense in Germany, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland, according to AFP estimates. ➡️ u.afp.com/SKoA

When you see outrage from the US about EU heat excess deaths calculations it's worth remembered that there is no equivalent data for the USA at all. You can't compare deaths for the same weather, and the USA does not do heatwave excess death calculations or even record secondary causes from heat.

⚠️ Confirmed: Network data show a second collapse in internet connectivity in Sevastopol amid reports of unscheduled power shutdowns in occupied #Crimea as the regional Russian leadership declares a state of emergency.

Nothing as hot and humid as this week’s Europe wide heatwave has ever happened before and it would have been impossible without Climate Change. #SpeirGorm #Climate #Heatwave Listen: 👉 www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

My boyfriend knows how to take a flattering pic of me😇

This level of heat is just stupid. I saw on Insta a woman from the US in the UK worried that there was a leak in their kitchen as it was covered in a liquid. It was butter. It was so hot the butter left on the counter top had entirely melted. It was not Kerrygold, so nothing was really wasted.

Are ye not too hot for yet another round of debate about every comment on air conditioning? Can't we go back to arguing about coddle, as the Blessed Virgin intended?
