It's amazing that lying has become so commonplace in public discourse in the US. You can say anything now with no repercussions for lying. I'm glad we still have accountability here in Ireland and that lies don't go uncontested.

Shutting down media that speaks against you. USA = North Korea = Russia

Charlie Kirk was a vile, racist piece of shit.

The Trump supporting, Monaco tax exile can dance the fuck off. We don't need or want this plastic Paddy as president.

Does GOP stand for Guarding of Pedophiles Murica has a pedophile rapist president and his party are hiding it. The land of the free.

The Bluesky Discover algorithm is drunk. Started today with pictures of sunsets, then swung drastically to suggestive gay men and has not settled on anime porn.

That couple caught cheating on the kisscam must be so embarrassed to have been caught attending a Coldplay concert.

Glitch: a sudden, usually temporary malfunction or fault of equipment. Fascism: a populist political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual.

Why is there more news about 130 men in dresses blowing different coloured smoke up a chimney than Israel taking over and levelling Gaza to the ground?

History will not be kind to Israel. This is despicable.

Israel announcement that they plan to take over the Gaza strip and displace/kill the habitants has been met with mostly silence. The world is gone to shit.

Helping Israel put out fires cause they're too busy slaughtering innocent women and children.

The Brits that voted for Brext are the Brits that vote for Reform. Self-destruction at its finest. Just like the dumb Americans voting for Trump. You will reap what you sow.

Does anyone know what date Murica will be great again? To me it looks to be getting shittier by the day.

China playing chess, US playing snakes and ladders, without the ladders.

Bluesky: Here's some pictures of cute dogs Me: Show less like this Bluesky: cute cats? Me: Show less like this Bluesky: cute rabbits? Me: Show less like this Bluesky: cute birds? Me: Show less like this Bluesky: cute sheep?

All this eulogizing for the Pope and the great things he's done. He's a Christian so surely the least he can do is show compassion. As Roy Keane says - "that's his job". How about forcing clerical organisations into redress repayments for sexual abuse survivors?

This is what the tariffs are supposed to achieve. Make America Great Again 🤣. What a shitshow of a country. Excellent trolling by China though.

Outrage about who is included in a group text message but no outrage about blowing up a building with loads of innocent people in it (including 5 children) to kill a "missile guy". That's Murica

What's our beef with Hindu nationalists? That was a curveball at the end of the list.

An advertising campaign I can get behind.

This makes a complete mockery of a respected award. A stupid novelty record. Time to do away with public voting. www.rte.ie/entertainmen...

David Walliams Midnight Gang is the biggest life saver for us unprepared parents on World Book Day. All the kids gone to school in their pyjamas.

The cognitive dissonance of people buying EVs to save the planet but putting money in the pocket of a fascist nazi.

The Israel supporting techbros are filthy rich

I remember redundancies in my workplace in dotcom crash. It was all the loud, obnoxious, stupid people that were kept on and the quieter, hard-working, conscientious people that were let go. I see this is being replicated in US political life now. It's the rise of the loud, stupid and obnoxious.

USA turning into North Korea in the space of a month is some achievement. The country appears to be for white, christian men only. It's disgusting to watch.

This #stormeowyn is looking like one that will rank up there with Ophelia, Darwin and Christmas Eve 97 storm. Going to cause a huge amount of damage across Ireland #Éowyn

So Nazi salutes are acceptable again. It didn't even take a day. 1938 🤝2025

It's our last Christmas with Michael D as president. We've had it good and we're lucky to have this man as our president.

This is an awful shame for Galway. It took longer to build this than it was open.

I love the wink and nod culture regarding the "bike to work scheme" in Ireland in the run up to Christmas.

Another rapist chosen by God. He read the same pamphlet as Russell Brand.

If you haven't listened to the Stakeknife podcast by @younghorgan.bsky.social get it in your earholes fast. It's fantastic.

Is the purpose of these cards from An Post to try and encourage us to send Christmas cards? I'm sure the promotion to send a card to every house in Ireland cost a fair bit. Maybe stop increasing the price of stamps. A national stamp cost 48c in 2004 and now costs €1.40. Using CPI it should cost 69c

It's the 3-week window where you can listen to as much shite music as you want on Spotify and it won't show up on next year's Unwrapped. Yes sir, I can boogie.

Just finished reading a book that was sitting on my shelf for a while. The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls. An amazing story of growing up in a dysfunctional family and surviving it.

Fantastic to see all the far right candidates having a terrible election in Ireland. The vast majority of people on our island are good, caring people.

The @bsky.app Discovery algorithm needs some tweaking. It keeps showing me stuff about videos games and I haven't played one since Fifa 98. The "show me less of this" option isn't making a difference.

Great to see some Irish supermarkets removing McGregor products from shelves. He's also been dropped from a video game. Let's hope others follow suit. Are there other brands he's associated with? I can't see MMA dropping him - he's probably more popular with their supporters now.

Is there a lack of self-awareness from people like Joe Brolly and others moaning about the actions of Musk on the very platform he owns and uses for his own agenda? Why don't they just leave?

I've started a moderation list of fascists and bigots from Ireland to make it easy for everyone to block these accounts in one go. If you have any accounts to add to the list reply here. To block all accounts just subscribe to the list and then hit block. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Man, I would have loved this job when I was younger

This place been denigrated as an echo-chamber by right-wingers. I'm much happier if it's a place where I can avoid fascist bile and hatred. It's far more peaceful.

Trying to escape the MAGA/right-wing fascists on Twitter. Hopefully it's more peaceful here.
