If you go into the feeds under the hamburger icon on the left there's a list of feeds. Search for speirgorm and then pin it, it'll show up on the top then. All the various spellings of the hash tag will come up in 1 feed like a dedicated Irish bluesky, very handy to follow along then

In the same way that you have a "following" feed and a "discover" feed and a "mutuals" feed - and feeds for whatever 'interests' you may have - like the "film" or "books" feeds - there's one called "speirgorm". Just click it, and it will give you an option to pin it on your page like the others.

This is my new favourite post. Chapeau.

It might be better if Irish Bluesky users could settle on a hashtag that isn't being spelled at least six different ways. #speirgorm #spéirgorm #Spéirghorm #speirghorm #speirghoirm #Spéirghoirm

Don't feel stupid, but also, if someone helpfully tells you "that's fake," the correct response is "oh shit, let me delete this" not doubling down and disabling comments.

This is huge. Komeito (a Buddhist-backed political party) has long been a crucial part of the governing LDP coalition, carefully managing their differences over military rearmament and social spending. This leaves the LDP short of a majority in both chambers.

I've had two posts this week go viral on Mastodon. Which means I am now the ruler of Mastodon.

If you don't know the story of Salvo D'Acquisto, you don't know the meaning of the word 'courage'.

9th October 1967, Emanuela Loi is born in Cagliari. She is the first female Italian police officer to die on active service, on 19th July 1992, one of the five members of Judge Paolo Borsellino's protection team who die with him that day in the via D'Amelio bomb attack in Palermo.

I'm hoping the fact that I am old will mean that I don't find myself mistaken for one of these pricks despite a somewhat similar dress sense.

That frog is out there, it can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with, it doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear, and it absolutely will not stop shimmying EVER, until you are grinning. bsky.app/profile/dann...

It is possible that support for Reform will wither away when people start to think about who Farage will have in his cabinet. But maybe not.

has anyone made the "TRON: Ares - TRON: Arse more like" joke yet?

How many trillions of dollars have been invested into this technology so far?

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

Can you imagine if Russia attacked and seized a UK vessel in international waters & kidnapped the people on board, including UK citizens, and the only response from the UK govt was to say that's "a matter for the Russian govt". No, me neither.

She was arrested for holding a sign reading: “I do not support the proscription of Palestine Action” How that would warrant arrest is very unclear. I wonder if the police here even understand the boundaries of the bizarre law they’ve been forced to enforce.

Happy Carole Lombard Day!

It's great not feeling like I have to waste anyone's time developing an opinion on the new Taylor Swift record.

There is talk of my work drama group about doing some rehearsed readings of ghost stories, including ones by M.R. James, which could basically see me doing my best @nunkie.bsky.social impression.

Wake up America. #Fascism

Sitcom idea: ventriloquist couple living together, relationship frosty, discussing divorce, but their dolls are deeply in love and do what they can to keep the couple together.

It’s rather tragic watching Labour bang on about ‘fighting’ Reform whilst by their policies tickling Reform’s tummy.

Something under-discussed as Donald Trump and the White House rail against George Soros and promise to crack down on OSF (Open Society Foundations) – Soros himself no longer runs it, and in reality the OSF itself has been in something close to crisis for years. Short thread:
