SF are cooked.

Ah but you know, things were better then according to the racist bloke with the AI poster on his tractor parked on O'Connell St and I've been assured that people with tractors wouldn't lie to me

66% of people agree "Immigrants contribute to our culture and we're all the better for having them here", up from 64% in 2024. - 77% believe people seeking international protection should be supported to become part of the communities they live in.

Félicitations à l’honorable Louise Arbour, qui deviendra la 31e gouverneure générale du Canada.

They really think they're playing Age of Empires lol

There is absolutely no evidence that any significant number of people voted for Repeal because of the waiting period. The best evidence we have (the exit poll) suggests that more people are likely to have voted Yes in spite of it

Bald! In the club.

In a post promoting the British Army and their actions, Tory leader, Kemi Badenoch, actually used footage of Bloody Sunday. There are no words.

While there is a loud and growing problem with the far-right it is very important to remember that the majority of the country does not agree with them. Interesting stuff in here, full report: hopeandcourage.ie/ireland-in-f...

i am buzzing to share that i have a new column with the journal which will be published every tuesday!! this is the first one but i’ll be writing about this sort of stuff and the housing crisis a lot in the coming weeks jrnl.ie/7025887

the anti-trans to anti-neurodiversity pipeline continues to flow. it is obviously absurd anywhere, but it's so detached from reality in Ireland, where we have a massive backlog of children seeking autism diagnoses and no public provision of adult diagnosis at all

Ok being a skinhead ain't so bad

My personal experience of this kind of thing was discovering Bon Matin (Good morning) is a standard greeting in Québec but a mortifying anachronism in France.

Thinkin about this panel with Thor and Dr Strange everyday of my mortal life.

"Oirish Paytriots " should at the very least know where our counties are FFS 🙄🤬🤬 #TraitorsAndKnuckleheads

No one, and I mean no one, has ever been more destined to repeat history.

Repping national brands at the leather bar.

I'm doing company training on the hazards and pitfalls of Greenwashing and all the imagery is generative AI lmao.

Project Hail Mary was really fun! A nice combo of a buddy scientist film and the "NASA saves the world" films of the 90s. ...I did think of these scene from The Other Two when they named the planet Adrian 😭

His media apparences could be very expensive

If I were Pierre Poilievre I would simply not raise the topic of education or work experience when comparing myself to my main political rival.

Pretty rich for him to accuse the media of giving the protestors carte blanche when his own government have literally written them a cheque with no strings or pushback.

They attacked the Muslim Sisters of Éire, one of the kindest and mostly welcoming groups out on the streets of Dublin providing meals to the unhoused. Fuck every single one of these rat fucks.

Racists brining the country to a standstill this week (under guise of fuel crisis) tried to intimidate one of the great charities in the country last night. MSOÉ have been feeding the unhoused for 11 years on O Connell street. Ugly scenes but beautiful show of solidarity from the people they feed.

This fella is one of the nominated representatives of the protest group. Should the government meet with him, do you think?

🎳

I shaved my head yesterday and I guess this is what bra-burning feels like

Ah, yes: the mask slips immediately. We need to talk about far-right radicalisation in rural Ireland, seriously and urgently. #spéirghorm #ireland

also probably worth noting a truck / tractor convoy converging on Dublin has been a dream of the Irish far right for ages and they're eagerly glomming onto this one. they saw the spectacle of the Canadian trucker convoy and the farmer protests on the continent and they've wanted their own ever since

This is what happened when people stopped traffic to protest a genocide.

Gaga cancelled her concert tonight

Got that post-gooning sickness in my heart

As soon as Progress Ireland was set up, it was only a matter of time before they had ministerial access for their awful ideas. Somehow being a US based tech billionaire enables you to meet with the Minister for Housing. Can you imagine how bereft of ideas the Gov are for this to go so far?

wow how embarrassing and evil that the americans are trying to abolish birthright citizenship. cant imagine any other country being stupid and racist enough to do that.

vendredi saint

I had a fun Anglo/Franco moment this week when I used the term "data collation" and my Québécois colleague heard "data snack" and told me I'd made a hilarious faux pas.

clock in faggots, it’s time for the pitt

Politician who's biggest achievement is changing the name of Passport Express, cause it didn't accurately describe the timeline involved, says timelines aren't important

your reward for making a good movie is that you're forced to make worse versions of it forever

The Irish academy has traditionally been characterised by a revisionist and anti-nationalist approach which the layperson might describe as “West Brit”. But even the academy cannot deny the horrors of Cromwell (which were far worse than you are even imagining).

i appear to have asked a question akin to "how do Rebel Alliance schoolteachers feel about Darth Vader?"

Good

One of the craziest aspects of this was Ireland was living in two sets of realities because at the same time, someone like Patrick O'Donovan was adamanant about banning social media for U16s because of safety concerns and someone like Patrick O'Dovovan wasn't too keen on pursing the Grok issue.

Wow. Fucking disgusting. Pierre Poilievre is such a loser, man. Note to everyone: if your rights become politically unpopular, Poilievre will throw you under the bus in a heartbeat, apparently.

Never dream

This is wrong and evil, obviously, but man am I also struck by how much worse the fucking BBC alert about it is.

i've got this one: he forgot the words "diego garcia" and the first thing that popped into his head was "ireland" because he'd been briefed on the it being an island in the *indian* ocean. this should not make you feel better about these comments.

Lol so he'll be 12 in his first year and 15 in his second then 28 by the time the series ends

Last night's ICE storyline on The Pitt depicts deportation as a disgusting, degenerate act carried out by human monsters, from whom normal people, whom they hate, instinctively recoil. Horrifying, vital work. (gift link)
