'Member all the Irish wankers bemoaning "political violence" when Charlie Kirk was murdered - has anyone seen if they have anything to say about the attempted murder of women and children in the Drogheda IPAS centre? No? Funny, that.

I am going to lose my fucking mind! One more time: THE REASON THERE WERE A LOT OF SPOILED VOTES IS BECAUSE THERE WAS A CONCERTED ORGANISED CAMPAIGN BY BAD ACTORS TO PERSUADE PEOPLE TO… (YOU GUESSED IT!) SPOIL THEIR FUCKING VOTES It wasn’t organic! Now shut up and stop being enragingly thick

Another good piece of writing from @benfraser.bsky.social on how the story of #Aras25 has shifted to focus not on a left-wing victory, but on right-wing grievances. "If they wanted a right-wing candidate, they need only have followed the rules and nominated one."

LEGION OF ONE : OF DUB : 28.11.2025

OF ONE - TEXTURES New album available to pre-order on cassette or digital from the @cruelnaturerecs.bsky.social Bandcamp page. Releases on 31 October. Artwork by the always amazing @thelastsound.com

No matter who you’re voting for in #Aras25, sensationalised attack ads are just grim, especially at a time when politicians repeatedly (and rightly) call for reducing toxicity in discourse and an end to personalised attacks. Nobody wants this stuff. It sours an electorate that desires civility.

Pre-order now 👍🤘

The entire UOUS album gets an outing here on this week's Loose Canon show, now streamable. Also includes #ddrome and some other @cruelnaturerecs.bsky.social goodies:
