strongly believe that if you don't appreciate the "quotative like" that you have never felt true joy because you've clearly never experienced an Irish woman telling you a dramatic story

I think one reason Joyce Carol Oates gets to yer man so much is he knows she is something he yearns to be, but can never achieve (even after buying the whole website and manipulating it into his own personal far right propaganda machine). She is a true poster. Born to do it

Things that make people like Rumours: 1) the songs 2) Stevie & Lindsay decades long situationship 3) Christine McVie writing a song about how fun her affair was and making her ex play it for 50 years 4) that they’d give them a bottle cap of coke while recording and no more until they finished a song

Strongest condemnation from a local politician so far coming from Labour's Ged Nash - underlining how close we may have been to having several lives lost in Drogheda overnight as a result of this attack.

I wrote about Graham Platner, Zohran Mamdani, and how the insurgent left wing of the Democratic Party is grappling with the question of masculinity.

The leftwing defense of Graham Platner is rooted in a false Democratic vision | Moira Donegan
Tolerance for behavior like Platner’s is tied to a wrongheaded theory of the male working class. Zohran Mamdani illustrates a different path

It would be better if more people voted, but I think minimising support for a candidate who was very comfortably elected, by linking it to the overall electorate, is a dodgy road that inches toward delegitimising all election results

The fundamental thing with the presidential nomination process is that if there was a true groundswell of support for a particular kind of candidate, there would already be enough of that kind of TD elected to nominate them

Catherine Connolly's win should be taken for what it was — a landslide built on months of hard work
Catherine Connolly's campaign was a movement that united the left, brought in 15,000 volunteers and saw over 914,000 people make her the most popular Irish politician of all time, writes Paul Hosford

Tallied a box in Dublin Central where spoiled votes came out ahead of Catherine Connolly and the constant refrain of the maddest things you see on Twitter was notable and distressing

I think Ireland should pride itself that people consider uprooting and starting new lives here. It wasn't too long ago that people were leaving this country in their droves for new pastures elsewhere.
