Irish Mammy, wife, rugby, lefty, LGBT+ she/her Politics without empathy is just greedy capitalism. A bee isn't going to waste time trying to convince a fly that honey is sweeter than shite...

Teenage boys Stories of them: Assaulting women Assaulting non nationals Raping women Stealing vehicles Murdering people It starts that early. And yet if we point out that male culture is the problem with society, we're somehow hating me. At what point to we face the problem head on?

I mean, duh. Every change so societal structure, health services or employment always serves men better and women worse. See also. Poor people always worse off.

Ok, guilty pleasure....MAFS The episode where the guy who talks about "I'm a warrior" and how we need more warriors, Knights, heroes, real men. Then he drops her when dancing. Then goes FULL Streisand wanting it left out in post production to save her blushes. Howled laughing. Always the alphas.

Had a big interview recently. I'm not desperate to move, but was really drawn by the role. The interview was....flat. very muted responses from the interviewers from the start, so no clue how well I did. I thought I gave a good account of myself, but no idea how it was received. The thing is...

Healy-Rae speaks so well here. Pity it's fraught with hypocrisy, as many things he has said and done has actively offended and harmed countless people. Call for kindness, absolutely, but start offering it to people you haven't even taken the time to speak to yet.

This is something that has gone under the radar a little. Orban didn't lose to a progressive, he lost to someone just a touch less authoritarian than him.

This man has posted on SM in the past saying he wouldn't mind seeing Greta Thunberg raped. That it's the only "action" she'll get. He's claimed Muslims are trying to take over the world. In case you're wondering who is running the fuel protests.

€505m came out the gov’t surplus. Tánaiste confirmed it’ll affect Budget ‘27. Every cent spent on haulier diesel this weekend is a cent that won’t be spent on disability allowance, homelessness, or carers in Oct. That is not a metaphor. That is the arithmetic Simon Harris just signed off on. (3/4)

The €505m package has been rejected by a leading organiser as “an insult.” Motorways are still blocked this morning. Whatever the blockades were about, they were never really about fuel. “The Blockade Is the Message” already said so. This morning just confirmed it. (1/4) #FuelFascists

Why would anyone be shocked that they're still blockading. Government just capitulated to two of the heaviest subsidised industries to the tune of .5 billion. They paid the hostages ransom and didn't even get the hostage.

Had a chat with my kids tonight about the fact that there are good and bad people in the world. Spoke about what makes someone good or bad, in simple terms. I told them we can't always stop bad people, but we can always choose to be good people. Sometimes that's all we can do, as hard as it is.

More spine, more bravery, more integrity than our own Taoiseach. Perhaps much of it is performative, but I'd rather someone who performs for the right reasons, than one who performs to appease a genocidal tyrant.

One of the most controversial political opinions I have, is that charities should not exist. Charities do the work the government should do. Charities exist because the state fails to fully support the vulnerable. And the state is happy to let people choose to support them or not.

So is McGregor going to show up at the white house again like the token far-right paddy? Despite the fact that the entire country is utterly ashamed of him, bar some dog kicking pretend journos and some lads with domestic abuse convictions that claim to want to protect women and girls.

To me, the very best mothers are the single mothers, working mothers and mothers giving their children their all, despite a lack of support. Parenting is hard. Mothering comes with additional expectations. Then doing it alone is the ultimate challenge. I live in awe of mothers that do so!

Lots of (mostly good) takes on this documentary exploring the grift that is red pill internet, but there something that's almost always missing. These men are taught to control, dominate and abuse women. This needs to be front and centre.

I walked in on my 6 year old giving my 4 year old back rubs. He looked guilty, but was being so kind. The 4 year old LOVES back rubs and goes virtually catatonic. Yes, it must be genetic, cos I'm the exact same.

Noam stopped serving her purpose to the regime and had been fired. Easy for Trump to pretend he has standards. But will she go quietly or go full MTG? The 'pick me' women never learn, that they and the people of colour are the most disposable and will be scapegoated.
