In reply to so many people asking us what they might do to ensure justice for the 878 missing mothers and babies of Bessborough - we (jfmresearch.bsky.social) soft-launched this email campaign some days ago - it is already having impact - clannproject.org/savebessboro...

I think we can all agree that with this final we all just want to watch a great game of football. …that Argentina lose, catastrophically.

Didi Hamann: After seeing that halftime show maybe the first half wasn't that bad after all. 💀💀

Never thought I'd be pining for the Artane Band but here we are.

Local plumbers two steps ahead of every university administrator in america 👏

The 73 can’t get down Philipsburgh Ave because some people attending the All-Ireland Final decided that their parking convenience trumps Dublin’s need for public transport.

Cornershop and Bubbley Kaur have a new single out, which is always a reason to celebrate. Here's the first of two lovely videos for Bounce & Salute. It stars Freya Warsi and was filmed by Phil Miller in Whitstable and Herne Bay youtu.be/frRluTpJ-rg @cornershophq.bsky.social

Hi @pantibliss.bsky.social sorry to have to do this but can you please ensure the accessible toilet in your lovely establishment is free of obstructions for us wheelchair users? Please be the rainbow in disabled people’s cloud! Thank you, Paula

Dr V is at his most likeable when he is very politely making some reactionary blowhard look like a big eejit. bsky.app/profile/dara...

McWilliams not understanding this shows how hugely out of his depth he is Re immigration.

David McWilliams lending his personal credibility to rw grifter Nick "make crime illegal" Delahanty... only to be slapped down by unlikely hero Dr V.

To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. (@eji.org) calendar.eji.org/racial-injus... “The bus boycott, which began May 28, was so successful that by July 1 the city had suspended its bus services because 70% of the usual bus riders were Black.”

🙃 as i wrote in the afterword to the paperback, in 2020 we were so close we could taste it to creating a world led by a sense of disability justice and collective care—a gift from viruses to have learned negotiating life with them was the roadmap to climate change, incarceration & anti-capitalism

Dang they really got a category for everything

Just saw a poster for a parade commemorating the international brigades in the Spanish Civil War. The parade is organised by the James Larkin Society and the poster is made using AI, and I'm begging everyone to just read some books.

I think there's a real chance that SpaceX ends up popping the AI speculative bubble and bringing down the whole market.

This is heinous and it’s not just far right accounts that are at this kind of thing. When Pauline Tully’s interview was published, detailing the near fatal assault on her by Pearse McAuley, there were similar “what did she expect”s from people who no doubt consider themselves decent human beings

This is what a well designed Vacant Homes Tax looks like 🏚12k homes back into use 🏘️36% vacancy rates reduction 👩‍👩‍👧‍👦20% more rental home 💰$231m raised over 3 yrs This is what Vancouver's 5% VHT achieved despite only a 0.9% Vacancy Rate #DerelictIreland#VacantIreland #Speirgorm

For 1000 days Israel has barred international media from Gaza, this despite several so-called "ceasefires". Fantastically wealthy and influential international media has never attempted to defy Israel's ban. They can't possibly be afraid Hamas will shoot them. What is going on?

Terror acts orchestrated and carried out by the proscribed UDA & UVF. No COBRA meeting and a whitewashing of terror involvement because the North of Ireland isn’t seen as somewhere deserving safety, never mind human & civil rights. Paramilitary groups are still celebrating their pogrom operation.

Google is reportedly threatening to exclude publishers from AI partnership deals unless they let it train its AI bots on their content nypost.com/2026/06/26/b...

If you are unlawfully made homeless, and complain about your landlord to the Residential Tenancies Board, they will close your complaint because you can’t give them a permanent address you live at (because you were unlawfully made homeless).

27th June 2025: Dublin Dyke March returns for the first time in over 25 years. Hundreds of participants march to demand visibility and protest for a number of pressing contemporary issues. 👉 buff.ly/eA8lSZk #OnThisDay #Queerstory

Cork City Council has a public consultation 1.5 years ago to reduce speed limits Yet our urban roads still have fast cars So we still have deaths near deaths and life changing injuries on our roads #Speirgorm

THIS is what we do to Teletubbies who snitch

despite their usual trumpeting of any crime committed by a foreign national, the only story Gript have run on Ramamoorthy was when Jim Glennon admitted he was the ex-TD who gave him a reference maybe they don't want to embarrass their friends at Spirit Radio, where Ramamoorthy was a DJ for years

Day of Reflection 2026 Today is the 21 June 2026 which for Northern Ireland and all those who were affected by the Northern Ireland conflict is ‘Day of Reflection’. This day and everyday I think of friends lost, injured or berieved. Michael Coyle, Martin O’Hagan, Lyra McKee and many others.

A reminder that in the middle of Belfast's paramilitary-backed pogrom involving terror groups, the UVF and UDA, Elon Musk tweeted this about Belfast's Lord Mayor. Belfast's Lord Mayor 'almost immediately became the subject of death threats'. Starmer and UK Government did nothing. [1/2]

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.
