10 years ago, there was only a single 'leathceann' (windswept) birch tree in the foreground. Now, there's a full-on exploding diverse native rainforest, none of which was planted. All it took was fencing out sheep. Let's rewild the world 🌏

It's amazing what not having an organised anti-trans media is like. Today is the VHI women's mini marathon in Dublin. They allow trans women to compete. I went searching on X for the permanently outraged and found only 2 posts from an Irish transphobe account, one had only 30 views, the other 346

Children in Gaza are being deliberately starved. Aid is being blocked.The EU must act now: suspend the trade deal with Israel, stop arms exports, and sanction those responsible.I signed — you can too. ✍️ action.wemove.eu/petition/202...

“In relation to Gaza, United Nations Secretary General António Guterres stated recently: “As aid dries up, the floodgates of horror have re-opened. […] Gaza is a killing field – and civilians are in an endless death loop”. #spéirghorm #speirgorm #Famine #Gaza #Palestine #UNHCR #UN

The NGS will not stop in making it more and more difficult for trans people to access healthcare. Baseless claim after baseless claim on lack of evidence. That's what happens when you dismiss all the evidence you don't like! www.irishtimes.com/health/2025/...

If you are boycotting the @eurovision.tv because of Israel's criminal actions in Gaza, please post and tag them, so they'll know they're losing viewers. #boycott #Gaza #eurovision #spéirghorm @rte.ie

Everyone in Ireland looking over at Keir Starmers Britain in horror, remember he’s not the first and this isn’t new. Remember what they took from us and how they did it and here it is again. Never not at it. #Speirgorm

Just out! Our peer-reviewed critique of the Cass Review has been published by BMC Medical Research Methodology. Please read and share. We show that the Cass Review is fatally flawed and should not be the basis for policy or practice in transgender healthcare. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

This is exactly what I experienced #Speirgorm

The UK's political and media class has spent years heaping sadism on trans people, and they want to do the same in Ireland next. Calls for civility and calm won't cut it. We need to fight them tooth and nail. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

I gave an interview to Al Jazeera on the Supreme Court judgment, and the surrounding context. I think it's possibly the best thing I've ever done (?) so give it a listen. youtu.be/dhRKIZi60NI?...

There isn't a story on the BBC News site about today's trans rights rally at Parliament Square where it's estimated 20k attended. But they did have a story last week about the Let Women Speak transphobe rally in Bristol where 100 people attended.

Last night i spoke of the afterlives of Irish revolutionary women in the Free State-a state which defined a narrow model of what it meant to be an Irish woman. Anyone who did not live up to that model was surveilled, shamed and/or institutionalised! Narrow definitions of womanhood harm all women.

Hi everyone – Irish or not, we need your help. An anti-trans conference is set for April at The Johnstown Estate in Ireland. Please take 10 minutes to contact the venue and let them know that platforming transphobia is unacceptable Phone: +353469540000 Email: [email protected]

The Irish Dept of Foreign Affairs has announced a Transgender Travel Warning to Irish Citizens travelling to the US. If you do not have to travel there as a Trans person, then don't! it is far too dangerous! #TravelWarning #Ireland #America #TransRights #SpeirGorm www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/overs...

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks. Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again. NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

israel is committing genocide against palestine and the foundation of the united states is being torn apart to punish the people who think this is bad.

If you're at the point of anti-woke moral panic that you're questioning whether NORTHERN IRELAND needs public investment in equality and inclusion initiatives, it's safe to say you're out of your fucking mind.

Putting money into action - we should all be asking our pensions funds to do similar.

TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS!! As a cis lesbian woman, I am proud of my Trans wife, my Trans friends and I am not afraid to stand up and say the word Trans. Trans people have always existed and will always exist no matter who tries to deny otherwise. I love you all 🌈 #SpeirGorm #LGBTQ+ #TransRights

What a speech from Lola Petticrew at the IFTA Awards, winning Best Actress in a Drama for SAY NOTHING. 👏🏻✊🏻

Thread: Important article on the status of trans people in Ireland by Jenny Maguire, President of Trinity College Students’ Union. Jenny is one of my heroines & a major voice in civil society. “I'm trans, but few politicians would now utter that word, let alone advocate for us” #SpeirGorm #LGBTQ

I am begging #speirgorm if you read one thing today, make it this. If you aren’t personally affected or don’t work in this area I promise you have no idea how monumentally banjaxed the Join Family visa system in Ireland is.

“These stories should concern all Americans because they are our family members, neighbors and friends. No American can be proud of a government that carries out change in this way.” The American Bar Association speaks out. Please read and share. www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

This is a response to Ireland announcing that it would assist in the International court of Justice genocide case, as opposed to what's expected of a western country, which is to look the other way when it comes to international law

There is NO public healthcare for trans kids in the South anyway- we are extremely lucky we can afford private care, it takes a large lump of our budget but the alternative was to risk losing our child. This ban will cost lives. Shame on Sinn Féin #speirgorm #Irishpol #transrights

Am I surprised that I got another bullshit copypaste press release answer from someone in David Cullinane's office who knows nothing? No. But that doesn't make the spineless collaboration with transphobic policies any less infuriating.

Reposting this in light of today's appalling ban on puberty blockers by Wes Streeting after the farcical sham of a consultation process. If treatment for one group is denied to another that has nothing to do with patient safety, but everything to do with politics. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

People are paying rent worth a house to sleep in a bedroom. The healthcare system is collapsed and they have opened the door and done photo ops for the Private vultures picking at its flesh. Their contribution now is putting the boot into 0.1% of the NI population cause Starmer has commanded it.

This. Sinn Fein cannot be considered in any way left wing so long as they continue to throw trans people under the bus. #speirgorm #irishpol
