I don't think recent memory has featured an industrial company with as much of a reputational fall-off as Tesla, both because of the decrease in quality of its cars and the increase in blithering fascism in its CEO. A decade ago a Tesla was a status object; now it's a vague embarrassment at best.

#OtD 13 May 1935 workers loading bananas in Oracabessa, Jamaica, went on strike, rioted, cut power lines and blocked roads to stop scabs. British colonial authorities sent in armed police to suppress the strike, but strikes continued to spread stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8504...

Shapiro should volunteer to go out with a roofing crew in FL this July to help them out for a few days to get an introduction to reality. Or work the overnight shift in a hospital emergency room. Or teach 8th graders.

A toxic combination of low wages and high bills is crushing this country. Today is Starmer's last chance to set out a plan that will end Rip-Off Britain: rent controls, nationalising water, freezing energy prices, and taxing wealth. No more half measures.

The Philippines mustn't be a pawn for US war strategy. Their land is not a US missile launch site. Ireland must not be a pawn for US war strategy. Our land is not a US military base. Defend sovereignty! Resist US military presence! No to US imperialist wars! Fight for just and lasting peace!

NO to militarization and war finance. YES to housing and cost of living measures! Get the message Micheál Martin/Simon Harris?

📢 AI data centres face increasing complaints about inaudible but 'felt' infrasound - causing dizziness, vertigo and sleep disruption. This adds to the growing list of issues coming from the mass build-out of these warehouses, such as higher energy costs, water issues and heat pollution.

Boycott Eurovision, never watch this 💩

If you seriously think the Greens are like Reform, and Polanski like Farage, you’re either certifiable or know nothing about politics at all. Or you’re simply lying.

Fucking incredible. Play this for every university administrator in the nation. She says AI is the next “industrial revolution” and all the students BOO loudly. And then when she says “a few years ago, AI was not part of our lives” they all CHEER. She is shocked by their reactions. I am not!!!

Sick for last 2 weeks in bed. Today I get up & check the news. Israeli violence continues regardless of ceasefires/ truces. Israel still not held to account. As long as governments in West support Israel and its actions their genocide plans will continue until completed. www.rte.ie/news/middle-...

It is vitally important that Ireland maintains its long-standing policy of neutrality. The best way of doing that is to retain the Triple Lock mechanism. Don't let Fianna Fail, Fine Gael or any other party/politician tell you otherwise. Would you trust them? Their actions speak for themselves.

No more profit from genocide. Ban Israeli goods and services. BDS

Troubling situation many find themselves in isn't their fault but govt's over-reliance on fossil fuels. Increasing cost of living forcing people to choose: between food, clothing, transport, or bills. Worse fuel shortages will compromise household budgets & people's health, safety, well-being.

Here they are: our two top Iran negotiators. No diplomatic experience. In way over their head. Both with massive financial conflicts of interest, their fortunes tied to the Middle East dictators that make them rich. What a disaster.

One of the brightest auroras I have ever seen…

A butterfly vigil was held today, the one year anniversary of Virginia's suicide. She was a warrior for the Epstein survivors sisters & so many victims around our nation who did not receive justice. Thank you Virginia & I hope you are at peace. 🦋 www.usatoday.com/picture-gall...

If you’re at the Correspondents’ Dinner tonight and remain silent about Trump and his enablers, you are neither a journalist nor a patriot. You are an accomplice.

SOVEREIGNTY? Irish Govt pays more attention to USA, lobbying by US gas companies/weapon manufacturers, than petitions & campaigns by people of Ireland. Ireland is ruled by EU/US influence (to put it mildly) and laws, not for the common good but for the enrichment of big business and multinationals

Sharing this update also… apologies for any confusion…

Booing the Welcome to Country at an Anzac Day ceremony is the same racism that Pauline Hanson performs every time she turns her back on the Acknowledgment of Country in the Senate. It doesn’t require a lot of analysis; it’s as sophisticated as she is.

Something tells me News Corp isn't going to run a multi-year targeting campaign against the people who organised and did this. Imagine if this was done by a pro-Palestine or anti-war protestor, and what the reaction would look like, compared to this www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

Apart from the actual stats, the most reliable indicator that immigration is plunging (to our obvious economic detriment) is Nigel Farage turning his dishonest attentions to the mythical millions of benefits claimants.
