In late '24, the Mirror reported this "could cost nearly €1 million" & earlier that year, The Journal reported that it was going to cost €850,000. Meanwhile the UK's one (for a population of 70 million people) cost £20m across three years www.bbc.com/news/uk-poli... Our tendering process = fried

conspiracy theory: as rent prices in ireland go up, prison is becoming less scary as a punishment for crime bc it represents a long break from paying rent. to counteract this, the gov have been rotating the Burke family in & out of different irish prisons, to make prison as unappealing as possible

once i was at a well reputed dublin bar and i ordered an irish coffee, which was made for me by someone on a trial shift. a bit of cream was running down the glass after they made it and they licked the glass from bottom to top to get the cream off then handed it to me. this still makes me shudder

what is the best place to get to via train in ireland in everybody's opinion

Caolan Robertson is not Irish and he is not a journalist. He’s a content thief who is regurgitating the Irish Times’ reporting Irish people *will* remember Caolan from #repealthe8th when he briefly stopped working for Tommy Robinson to make propaganda for the pro life group Youth Defence.

someone i know worked w angelina jolie & i asked what it was like & she said that she brought her kids everywhere & when they had a nap & she wanted to wake them up she’d hold dark chocolate under their noses to wake them up w the smell bc she only ever wanted them to “wake up to something nice”

this week i’m the first person to ever quote leslie feinberg on the journal dot ie 👇

Replaying the hits

you know, i was just thinking that shane ross was the one person who i wanted to hear weigh in on this debate

Well I had to repeat my Leaving Cert because of Final Fantasy 7

one thing about living in an apartment run by irelands largest institutional landlord is that you need to be prepared to tighten the screws on every cabinet door in the property on a biweekly basis

The "bitch, it's not even working" thing is also GOLD

i’m living for the fact that futurism disclosed their past relationship with him as an investor in this piece but still eviscerated him lmao

Conor McKeon has a question. www.independent.ie/sport/conor-...

i just came this 👌 close to sending a text for my sister into a dublin central political whatsapp group with hundreds of members which said: "i woke up with a banging headache today and i was like nooooo whhyyyy then i remembered all i ate this week was hot dogs"

one thing i don't get about people's obsession with denying the allegations of michael jackson and preserving some pure ideal of his legacy, is like... what do people get out of it? why are you so invested in a catalogue of music you'd have heard on the shopfloor of debenhams

Today in “Ireland is full”

"Perhaps prison would have persisted this way forever. Perhaps our granite hearts and iron wills would have never crumbled. Perhaps the prison mentality, that we be cold and heartless, would have endured. Perhaps. But then there were kittens."

"Female Genital Mutilation is illegal in Ireland except when it is performed on an intersex child." healthcare for intersex people in ireland is appalling, and i'm often surprised by how few people realise it's treated as an extension of our abysmal National Gender Service gcn.ie/sex-not-bina...

cue government panic and helplessness about another energy/fuel issue that could have been completely avoidable if we didn't try to privatise every stupid thing in this country www.rte.ie/news/munster...

Richie on the ball

i can’t download paralives yet but i’m so excited and look fwd to mainstream audiences embracing a game made by like 15 people with a “different” art style… pls im so ready for a world without EA / unreal style games that take 5 billion dollars, 1.5 decades & the population of a small town to create

Is this the first time Gript have ever acknowledged that a white Irish man might be guilty of inappropriate behaviour toward women

Ireland coach Heimir Halgrimsson and some players feel it's unfair that they are being asked by media about the upcoming games against Israel. Just a reminder that Israel has killed more than 400 Palestinian footballers in the ongoing genocide. I'm really sorry you find that inconvenient.

one of the best small things animation has given us is the concept of a tongue wiggling when a character screams

Data centres now use more electricity than all the urban homes in Ireland, and they pay less for it.

to this day i cannot believe how many people have gained traction as looksmaxxers, when all that they have done is gone through puberty in full sincerity, they will post: before: 14 years old. ew!!!!! after: i became a 24 year old thanks to bonesmashing, obscure supplements, mewing & mastic gum

it's fun how generative ai isn't just killing off digital artists by cannibalizing their work to destroy the market, it's also doing it through unforeseen knock on effects like making replacement of failing equipment prohibitively expensive

guys we had an unfathomably miserable january and we finally have some gorgeous sunshine that we can enjoy... it's so exciting!!! what should we do now that it's sunny? wait why don't we queue for hours at the opening of joe + the juice for a toastie that looks like it was sat on for 2 hours

why did they have to take an awkward celebrity meet and greet photo

Excellent piece by the Galway Advertiser and Maxim Kelly here, rather than simply letting this far right bigot lie without comment, his nonsense is displayed besides the facts. Would that most of the Irish media took a lesson from them

We spoke to Jane from The Needle about what trans people can do to oppose the EHRC's new regulations. In short: do not obey - occupy space - take action. We will not take this sitting down. xoxo BASH BACK

can anyone recommend a place to get custom trophies made (in weird shapes, not classic trophies)? or is anyone a good wood worker who might be interested?

are they still legally obliged to give a weird look to every lesbian with the same length hair as them that they see in a public bathroom though

personal lifelong side quest to fix these every time I see it. the red cord needs to hang all the way to the ground so people can reach it if they fall.

Sixty (!) years ago, BBC2 presented a documentary on sex changes (as they were called at the time) and how the psychological aspect of gender were more significant than the glandular ones. From the Sunday Mirror, 20/11/66.

Fingal County Council has refused drone delivery company Manna permission to continue flying drones from its base in Coolmine. “In the absence of sufficient evidence, the aerial delivery hub by virtue of its operation results in serious noise pollution,” the council found.
