I see all the old men are triggered over Imbolc so here’s a reminder of who are celebrating today #speirghorm feministire.com/2018/02/01/h...

A company was planning to inject chicken shit deep into a Virginia aquifer. Why? Because that way the carbon emissions stay underground, and the company can sell the carbon credits to Microsoft who can claim it toward their net-zero goals. Carbon credits are a scam.

Ann Lovett’s story was in many ways the story of a generation of young women. We all knew girls like Ann, who had concealed their pregnancies or been sent away mysteriously. And many brave girls who were single mothers against all the odds. #NeverForget

But when I asked an organizer what they wanted to see out of press coverage, they told me they wanted people to see the beautiful things they are building here, and not just the worst stories of the worst of ICE's crimes. What people are doing here is beautiful. It's a tragic beauty, but a real one

I don't want to paint a rosy picture, because it's a city under siege. People are being abducted all the time. One person told me about watching 1-2 abductions a day, just in her own work following ICE.

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

It's genuinely a leaderless (or leaderful) movement, decentralized in a way that the state is absolutely unequipped to handle. There are a few basic skills involved, and so people teach each other those skills, and people are collectively refining them.

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.

In 1921 there was concern in English newspapers about the calibre of person employed by the Black & Tans in Ireland. From the Leicester Catholic News.

Mussolini was captured by Anti-Fascists, shot and his body was brought back to be hung from his feet in the public square.

Someone tell our government that banning X is now the populist position #speirghorm

In 2023 the UK government legislated that veterans who, like US ICE officers, shot their fellow citizens dead, on camera - for protesting, would never answer in any court - Civil, Criminal or even Coroners. With no pushback from the left or electorate. In case you think it couldn’t happen here

Irish women are going to hunt him for sport.

Amazing moment on French TV. A French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy basically trying to intimidate her during Le Pen's trial for embezzlement - something they've done to other judges around the world.

Paschal Donohoe the very man who prioritised Data Centres over homes. Who also provided subsidies for these DCs meaning we pay more for our energy. #SpéirGorm

I don't think messaging apps should send users unsolicited messages inducing them to gamble on behalf of betting companies, personally

A great book which shows the important of photojournalism. The book is called’SELMA IS NOW’ with the pictures of Spider Martin 60 Years ago. Spider was working for the Birmingham News and was covered everything including civil rights protests.

They really have taken leave of their senses. The Minister is just going to make all planning and environmental decisions personally, and he wants the Oireachtas to waive pre-legislative scrutiny?! www.irishtimes.com/politics/202...

For younger people, the bastards using bogus non-resident accounts and their banking friends defrauded the state of billions with their scamola. Not a single person was ever prosecuted after the uncovering of the tax avoision (I don’t say evasion, I say avoision). Good overview archive.ph/jkFb1

Transphobia really does rot your brain.

Harsh winter conditions are worsening the suffering of displaced families in #Gaza. Despite severe shortages, UNRWA teams continue providing food parcels & winter clothing—but this is far from enough. UNRWA aid supplies that have been stuck outside Gaza for months must be allowed to enter.

Hook it into my veins!

I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"

While the police forces & British courts pursue prosecutions relating to Palestine Action, an actual proscribed terror group is operating freely in N. Ireland and the police are covering up and downplaying white supremacist terror, violence and mass forced displacement of racial & ethnic minorities.

ALSO - RTE etc. should stop reporting on Enoch Burke's every movement. Let the courts/guards deal with him, but putting him front page everytime he shows up at the school is what those headbangers want. Starve them of attention. We have choices about what to do!

Irish media reporting on this as if they haven't spent the past 18+ months encouraging rabid suspicion and hatred of immigrants coming to Ireland

The relevant law allows for significant fines for companies, and for fines and up to 14 years in prison for directors or officers of companies that commit offences with their consent, connivance or neglect. There's no gap in the law here. X needs to be subject to criminal investigation.

Section 5(1)(f) of the Child Trafficking and Pornography Act 1998 (as amended) makes it a criminal offence to knowingly facilitate the production or distribution of sexualised images of children. The problem here isn't the law - it's the political willingnesss to enforce it against X.

Women's Aid said that it will no longer maintain a presence on X. "This online violence against women and children - especially girls - has often devastating real-life impacts and we no longer view it as appropriate to use such a platform to share our work. www.rte.ie/news/ireland...
