Listening to arguably the biggest weekend radio show on the national broadcaster, and the tsunami of abuse suffered by an elected representative was not mentioned during the panel discussion. I'll repeat: Irish media/politics has no idea about the far right, and that is a danger for democracy.

'Environmental impact of these vast facilities remains largely secret, despite the data flowing into a publicly-funded database. ... lobbying from major data centre operators was successful in keeping specific information from individual data centres confidential and out of the public domain'

I can relate to this. You end up in a situation where there’s nothing you can discuss with them other than the weather, and even that potentially triggers them into saying climate change is a hoax.

If this hasn’t crossed your feed yet, take a second to enjoy this certified banger

The present moment in time on this planet is the absolute pits. It’s an effort everyday to stave off utter depression. What the hell is wrong with people, what is wrong with these “men”???

April 17th • A song you haven’t listened to in years Elaine Paige/Barbara Dickson - I Know Him So Well There was a point in time when this was on repeat in our house. Mum bought the 7” single and it got some seriously heavy rotation ❤️ #EcksteinsMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge #MusicSky

Exactly one year ago today:

I don't really look at other social media, but I'll be paying attention to who comes out in public support of a Traveller woman under siege, and who chooses to stay silent.

The woman by Kennedy’s side is trying so hard not to laugh

Eileen Ní Fhloinn expressed how far right use of the tricolour has created a sense of fear around what is supposed to be a unifying symbol, in response to which she is now being bombarded with hateful remarks by thousands of people, incited by Gript and various far right social media outfits

Will the book contain 'amazing timber tree' images like this? Will it highlight how forestry is the 3rd greatest pressure on water quality? How Sitka Spruce plantations are imperilling our precious Hen Harrier and Freshwater Pearl Mussels? Children deserve information, not greenwashing.

Fluoride in drinking water has no effect on IQ or brain function, a long-term study shows. The new research is the first to measure community water fluoridation exposure during childhood and any potential impact on cognition up to age 80. The results contradict RFK Jr. statements.

This is nothing but a massive failure of government. Tens of thousands of people have peacefully marched on issues like housing, healthcare, immigration, Palestine, and rights for marginalised groups. But the assholes who held the country to ransom get €500m. Fuck this.

Two johnnies out with the most protestors are normal people who don’t want to see disruption and the government have millions for ‘other things’ there is of course a flood of support for them saying this. I’d say we are underestimating the support for the fash in Ireland tbh. Growing like cancer

Here’s another thing which is A and B at the same time. The far right in Ireland are to be taken very seriously and are very dangerous but also, most of them are a bunch of stupid saps.

I mean for me it comes down to this: I trust the govt and the Gardaí to be self interested, including to know who their enemies are. If this was a working class mass movement with potential to significantly change the country for the better, it would have been baton-charged on day 1

I'm sure the Gardaí are going to stand back for 5 days to allow this individual make their point and then have the Gov arrange meetings to better understand their demands.
