BREAKING: Judge dismisses murder, weapons charges against alleged UnitedHealth CEO killer Mangione reut.rs/45Fin56

#SpéirGorm Aramark also has the contract for lots of DP facilities, and it owns Avoca. Think twice before going for your bougie lunch at Kilmacanogue!

"They want to spend YOUR taxes on someone else's education!" GOOD! That's exactly what it should be fucking spent on.

Oh. Delicious.

There is no one I would less surprised to find out was a total spoofer than Flatley

Truly feels like we're sleepwalking into our own annihilation

ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.

No matter how old you are, you will never have life figured out.

They're trying to blame Met Éireann for doing their job rather than blame their own failures or acknowledge that we will have to make sacrifices and real changes to mitigate the effects of climate change

We can look back to comments prior to Storm Chandra, to the likes of Babet, Éowyn, Ophelia etc. and for him to say in October that certain projects wouldn't go ahead because they'd be polarising? This is only going to get costlier. For Ministers to call out Met Éireann is farcical #SpéirGorm

The govt are thrilled whenever people fall for misdirection & fail to point the finger at who's actually responsible for repeated failures: the govt. Was disappointing to hear a flood victim say "they care more about the snails than us" last night on the news. More distraction & unfair blame.

I know, this is bold but if anyone can screenshot or send me this article THANK YOU www.irishtimes.com/your-money/2...

The Indo Daily podcast asks 'Is America flirting with fascism' Tomorrow 'The Internet. Could it be the next big thing?'

quite literally how the investigation into X is going in Ireland

Every “innovation” in late-stage capitalism seems to take products that we could once buy and own and turn them into a rental or subscription service. It’s a money-making racket that no one asked for. Except shareholders. arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026...

I appreciate that anyone anywhere the Dodder is aware at this stage that it's quite high today but still I found it nice that this single-purpose website exists: Is the Dodder too high to get across the stepping stones in Bushy Park? Currently: yes dodder.eu

Regardless of whether they do or don't stay on X (they should leave imo, fwiw), it's wild they don't have in-app updates.

Did X lie to the government? Are government trying to distract? We need actual action! The Minister had assured us that X can no longer be used for 'nudification' purposes in Ireland or anywhere else. However, I informed the Minister that this was simply NOT true. #SpéirGhorm

Street art memorializing Alex Pretti in Seattle. Per r/Seattle, it was painted on a building facing Swedish Hospital in the First Hill neighborhood www.reddit.com/r/nursing/co...

1/2 I have made it clear to the people around me, FOR YEARS, that is do not ever want another man in my life. And I have good reason. So, I don't think its unreasonable that I'm pissed off to discover someone secretly tried to 'set me up'. This is incredibly disrespectful...

Reminds me of a very similar bit of training female members of the British secret service were given during WW2: "Don't ask a man who works for their government what's happening. Confidently tell him something you know to be inaccurate, and he will be forced to correct you".

Now I want to know which CNN reporter or producer doesn't know the word "sycophant."

Yet again we have more BS calls for people on bikes to have manditory HiViz & plastic hats. Meanwhile in the real world the actual threat comes from drivers. This guy was looking at his phone as he blindly followed the car in front of him across a segregated cycle-lane.

Good job, everyone

@ronandusty.bsky.social I watched The Ballad of Wallis Island last night, you seen it?

A Cadbury Creme Egg bar. Being heavily advertised as a 'protein' product. Lads.

This exact thing happened to me on Friday. Male caller offering me a better rate on my contract (which set off my spidey senses as I’d only just changed my contract). A text message came through from my carrier at the same time with an access code. I cut the call off but quite a sophisticated scam.

The code scam. There seems to be a load of scams at the moment which send you a code from a legitimate service (your phone provider, your bank etc) and the scammer needs that code. Do not read out codes! Heard so many of them recently

I HATE that he has got away with it. With all of it. His whole life. The cons, the rapes, the extortion, the blackmail, the paedophilia, the scams, It doesn't matter what happens now, his brain is mush. He got away with it all.

Please share. 💔

God, when you think a *decade* ago, people were screaming that all the anti-trans rhetoric going mainstream was nothing but a huge warning sign that fascism was coming.

ICE could gun down a child on camera and the right would defend them at this point. They spent two years defending Israel for it.

I'm sure this post won't annoy anyone in Northern Ireland

As we grieve for Alex Pretti and Renee Good in MN, please do not forget Victor Manuel Diaz, who died in ICE custody after being taken from here. And all others who have died in their custody.

A man told me yesterday that it was important to "take emotion out of the equation“ when analysing the situation in the US, at which point I told him very calmly that "a woman who disagrees with you is not necessarily emotional". Ladies, it was a breakthrough. I should have done this years ago.

Wow, he looks just like a sausage dog, I had no idea

Board of Peace - Season 1

Ireland people! Trying to get someone to look at a dripping tap. The people I have found want 150 upfront before they will even make an appt. This, of course, won't cover any parts required. Is this normal? I got them through the management company so, they are legit. I just never heard this before?

Dublin City Council CEO Richard Shakespeare says "I have now taken the decision to suspend all posting by the City Council on the X.com platform. This applies to all City Council X accounts and will be actioned with immediate effect."

Musk at Davos ‘I heard about the peace summit, and I was like, is that p‑i‑e‑c‑e?' He laughs. No one else laughs. Looks to the not laughing crowd. ‘a little piece of Greenland, a little piece of Venezuela’ The best bit of joke telling is having to explain it after. That's how you know it's good

My god. I just watched an ad on the telly, for a tv show, hosted by a real person (as in this guy exists and is quite famous) and the whole fucking thing is AI.

Can't resist revisiting this Art Nouveau winding staircase decorated with metal flowers and vines, designed by architect Ede Magyar, at Reök Palace in Szeged, Hungary (1907)

“We’ve invented a magic computer. It uses all of the earth’s resources, we’ve spent trillions on it and it’s the sole growth area of the US economy.” “What does it do?” “We were hoping you could tell us.”

I know we're all seeing 87 unhinged things per day, but "guys if our multi billion dollar product doesn't start being useful for something, literally anything, the people might not appreciate us wrecking the planet over it anymore" is a truly bananapants thing to say out loud

People can say they didn’t vote for this but people are liars
