Digital Artist: In my work I invented the Gowl Detector as a cautionary tale Tech Company: At long last, we have created the Gowl Detector from classic art installation Don't Create The Gowl Detector

Here’s the thing, if we did something like this they would just turn on a gigantic electric wheel that gets rid of the extra electricity

Was this the best use of my time today? No. Is it the most amusing way I could have spent the last 90 minutes? Absolutely. Pattern is free here: bit.ly/4nGGCGc

Look, when it comes to coddle all I'll say is this, I generally have a rule that I don't eat food when I can't tell if it's cooked or uncooked.

I watched the Ed Gein season of monsters and I genuinely don't know what it was trying to do. Absolutely baffling and not in a good way.

If kids got raped by clowns as often as they get raped by preachers it would be against the law to take your kids to the circus. joemygod.com/2025/11/mo-y...

people outside of Ireland will have missed this, but I think it's important for them to learn that a former sportsman has been found guilty of defrauding people out of millions while pretending to have cancer by sticking a phone charger up his nose

Sneak peek at the algorithm that will determine whether they'll lend to someone or not.

Fucking disgusting

he literally did the meme

Imagine looking like this and asking the question "Did women ruin the workplace?"

"Forget silly concepts like culture, night life, art or entertainment you fucking peasants, The Economy is the only thing that matters! Feed it your blood and life, that pension won't pad itself!" -Minister for transport, probably

Stunned onlookers were overheard asking “Did we die? Is this Hell?"

A story that I will tell until I'm blue in the face, that I will ensure is carried down from one generation to the next, is of the sex education class my mother got at school. It's the 1970s in Ireland, so naturally they're being taught by a nun.

My entire life in a tweet:

calling all queer and trans people who were involved in the catherine connolly campaign: would you like to speak to me for an article i am writing? (i would love to get as many different perspectives as possible)

Who are these people telling us it's 'pro-rural' to be in favour of being allowed to keep on turning our rivers and lakes into stinking, dying, open sewers for private profit? Oh, just a Fianna Fáil MEP. share.google/tBQc70fFRQIW...

We saw how Irish media reacted to Catherine Connolly winning the presidential election with her campaign 🤯🤦🏾‍♀️ “Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.” #spéirghorm #IrishPol #NYC #Áras25

good morning gang, let’s all suffer together

This is a terrible move. Standards in RTÉ are in audible decline. This is an essential public service not a for profit enterprise, something made all the more vital in an age of rampant disinformation. Short sighted, shallow thinking.

The haters said they couldn't do it. And they were right. Honestly, great call from the haters.

This is a disastrous move. RTE's documentary-makers in both radio and TV are held in very high esteem all over the globe, and to shutter the in-house TV unit is as stupid as it is short-sighted.

lol

Actually making me angry that someone would do this. Photography is magic, you're freezing light to show people in the future what things looked in basically as objective a way possible. There *are* photos from the 50s! You can see them! It's really cool! This is dog shit!

For the second time today, once I've been prompted to look further I'm pretty sure this is AI generated. Leonard McCombe is a real photographer, his photos do not, however, typically look like this.

In a very dark world, we've had two bright lights - Connolly's victory and now Mamdani winning in New York. There are powerful countercurrents to the rightward shift in politics at the top. Now is the time to join the fight for ecosocialism as the only alternative to barbarism ✊

Great letter in today's Irish Independent. Almost a year after promising to enact the Occupied Territories Bill in the election, our government has yet to do it. We've been waiting for 7 years. #OccupiedTerritoriesBill "Are Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael serious about passing this bill? Where is it?"

Who got this photo of my dreams and how?

"Troy confirms he owns 11 properties and apologises for failure to fully declare interests Fianna Fáil Minister of State says he made pre-tax profit of €36,000 on house bought, renovated and sold on to local authority" "inaccurately filed his Oireachtas register of members’ interests documents"

So far I've heard some really rich and interesting stories from my participants on how second-gen identity is negotiated in contemporary Ireland. Still looking for more participants, and would appreciate another push from my Irish followers if possible 🙏 #spéirghorm #identity #migration #Ireland

I have to imagine far-right Catholics are really struggling with the fact that they can now hear this stuff in English directly from the pope.

Eggplant parmesan, made with aubergines. I think I'm gonna give manicotti a go next

Honestly TELL THE STORY. Won’t someone just tell the fucking story of how Brexit created this economic hardship, how a Muslim immigrant just saved the lives of those commuters on that train, won’t someone in politics or even media just connect the fucking dots and TELL THE STORY. IT’S RIGHT THERE

I regret to inform you that this is an AI generated video.

NYT writing about the new mayor this morning

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

literally every time the media talks about polanski or mamdani

Why don't bloody cyclists use the cycle-lanes? This is the new cycle-lane on E Wall Rd. It's like this all the time. This is a common issue with cycle-lanes all across the city. The drainage here was never adequate. Who audits these projects to check if they're constructed correctly?

The annual poppies/paddies discourse is underway over the water.

Honestly this *should* be the reaction to a mayor of a city in a foreign country being elected, but I know what they're doing here.

You have to survive. There are graves to piss on that haven't been dug yet.

the real space race is being up there chilling having a bbq and a couple of cold ones and maybe like a sick porch

The flip side of this is the male author who was asked about his writing routine, and who talked about how much he loved the feeling that he could close his door and then “the day is completely yours” to focus on writing. He had, at the time, two young children… and, of course, a wife

If the RSA wanted to help cyclists more, they'd try to instill in drivers that overtaking cyclists in towns doesn't actually gain you time, rather than telling cyclists to "be seen".

if democrats are serious about winning they need to learn from tonight and convert to islam

79% of homes sold in Dublin this year were bought by landlords, 75% by large landlords. About 1 in 5 TDs are landlords. This is disgusting dog whistling. The problem has never been people seeking asylum. The problem is people seeking to endlessly profit from folks just looking for a home.

Famously peaceful country, America. Whenever I talk to people about America, the first thing we all say is how peaceful it is and how we'd love to go there because of how unlikely it is we'd get shot or run over by a giant car.
