If I’m not mistaken, spoke at the “fuel protests” at o Connell street

Absolutely incredible headline.

The UN should recognise the humanitarian crisis in Cuba, censure the US¹, and the EU should send aid. Trump might rage, and claim it's a hostile act², but so what? He's a bully and shouldn't be allowed to get away with it. ¹ the intention stops it being genocide ² en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monroe_...

This is what the internet is for.

If you ever needed a reason to quit Netflix.. (I dropped it in November: too expensive, little good content these days. I honestly don't miss it)

There was a 51% jump in eviction notices issued in the first quarter of this year. Sinn Féin’s Eoin Ó Broin said it is a 'direct result of the government’s disastrous changes to rent pressure zone rules earlier this year'. jrnl.ie/7039216

I check the news regularly enough (and dislike notifications enough) that I don't have any push notifications from news services. Could someone make an app that will ever only give me one notification for when this happens?

interesting rationale from a prospective juror in the Elon Musk Twitter stock manipulation case

You might not be aware: during the shooting of that ad, when scenes were cut, and they were reviewing the footage or lining up the next shot, the actor in the ad would intentionally closed the door of the press with Bertie in it and walk off, needing someone else would have to let the man out.

Sinn Féin should just merge back with Aontú and get it over with.

Micheál Martin needs to stop saying that questions asked of him are unfair. Bertie's little candid camera moment is one of the first problems in ages that isn't MM's fault, he should relish the opportunity to not be all indignant and defensive.

Your regular reminder that one of the reasons Ireland has yet to develop a credible far-right political party is because FF and FG already cater so well to that class of racist, misogynistic voter. To wit(less): www.irishexaminer.com/news/politic...

*the Government reading this, sobbing* "Please, let's just ban kids from stuff, don't make us regulate the tech companies"

We call this design 'Kicking Random Man Up The Arse.' €5 from every sale goes directly to the World Food Programme's Palestine appeal >>> https://waterfordwhispers.shop/products/arse-kicked

When FF entered government in 2020, there were aprox 10,000 homeless people in Ireland. That number is now over 17,000. #speirgorm

7 months to go

€13m spent on Wexford General Hospital’s new car park with 400 car parking spaces. Presumably SF are going to be highlighting this one next, right? tobcon.ie/project/mult...

Note how the Government can pick and choose when to be restricted by the EU. We will go it alone if they rule in a way we don't like on Big Tech, but our hands are tied when it comes to sanction Israel for genocide #Spéirgorm

Irish great James McClean adds his voice to the majority of people here, in the football community and broader public, who want the FAI to boycott the Nations League fixtures against apartheid Israel, who stand with the Palestinian people. #BDS #StopTheGame

How in the name of JAYSUS can 17 percent of voters in Galway consider voting for FG and eight percent for FF? The 16 percent for the lad from the allegedly racist party makes a bit more sense, but one in four voting for people actively trying to make them homeless? Are ye well, lads?

Important rules for the "age verification" era of the internet that we're living in: 1. Do not do age verification. 2. If you have to do age verification, cheat. Do not under any circumstances give them your real ID.

I’m not usually one to praise the IT, but the photo editor did great work here

Ugh I'm so mad that some dork made using a chatbot cool

Cork, what a county. Its September 1934 and the Derry Journal reports that at a cinema dance in Buttevant, Co. Cork, all the women there refused to dance with the fascist Blueshirts. A Blueshirt announced that they had paid their way in and if no girls would dance with them.. [1/2]

Slay the Spire 2 Act 4 boss has been leaked

Every time the Irish Gov puts out cheery 'record new house build numbers!' - it's worth asking how many new housing units were sold on the open market/private buyers in Dublin city in 2025. It was 4% In Cork city - 2%. Yay!

Why is government afraid to admit their 'shed-sit' policy is taken directly from the Collison billionaire-backed 'Progress Ireland' think tank? This is corporate capture of our government. Billionaires shouldn't exist. #CostOfGreed

"how was your first day at work?" [longest cigarette draw in history] "pas bien"

I think there's been rumours about Smyth's Toys being connected to "theliberal" for a while and this would seem to bear out the idea that they're wrong 'uns.

Useful thing to use here

This is like 9/11 for golfers

How many other heads of state would do this - and without any public statement or fanfare?

whenever Breaking Point are done rescheduling their right-wing rally in Cork, they might get around to filing their first financial return, which is more than ninety days late

Lol

I'm crying, this is so funny, he has absolutely no idea.

The price of green diesel must be reduced because using green diesel is a necessity. The price of renting somewhere to live must be allowed to soar to the 'market rate' because having a roof over your head is not. Priorities.

Move over Hemingway, "Elon Musk, please help" clocks in at a cool four words

Went to Infowars just to see if The Onion's takeover had happened yet. Live broadcast right now is about Ireland, where anchor says it's a shame that the Irish diaspora in America are not being mobilised to stop the population being. I quote, "completely replaced by a giant swath of third-worlders".

MAHA

I’m sorry the IRB post their minutes online? How long have I been in a coma

in a world where Sinn Féin can't exhale without being accused of being anti-democratic ideologues conspiring to subvert the state, it is quite extraordinary to me that Noel Thomas is getting away so lightly with associating with actual anti-democratic ideologues conspiring to subvert the state
