I'm loathe to share this man, but this one is personal. My masters thesis was on the MMR controversy, so believe me when I say that this path of separation of the MMR will result in nothing but increased sales of too-small coffins, and children with life-altering medical conditions.

“War”. What “war”? It’s a massacre, a genocide, a slaughter of defenceless civilians, including tens of thousands of children & babies, doctors, nurses, teachers, journalists sanitised by “balanced” media reporting of Western media outlets. Was Auschwitz a “war” too? www.rte.ie/news/2026/08...

Mass funeral held in Gaza for family killed during war
In a cleared plot of land between buildings flattened by airstrikes in Gaza City, row upon row of Palestinian flags were laid out neatly over the remains of dozens of people to be buried.

‘They’ are predominantly loyalists, in predominately loyalist areas, running amok ahead of an annual, hundreds of years old celebration of ‘being up to our necks in fenian blood’ This isn’t the only factor in what’s happening in Belfast but it’s a really big one that almost everyone is ignoring

1.This is not the only known example we know of ChatGPT cheering on a vulnerable young person to die by suicide, this time it is a recent Texas A&M grad 2. Every single university that has invited OpenAI into our midst should be asked to account for their choices. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...
Shamblin’s conversation partner wasn’t a classmate or friend – it was ChatGPT, the world’s most popular AI chatbot.

A CNN review of nearly 70 pages of chats between Shamblin and the AI tool in the hours before his July 25 suicide, as well as excerpts from thousands more pages in the months leading up to that night, found that the chatbot repeatedly encouraged the young man as he discussed ending his life – right up to his last moments.

Got an email from Amazon to be part of their invite only "Brands of Ireland" campaign which apparently aims to help businesses for Black Friday, Christmas etc. Sounds nice but Amazon is a killer of small businesses and they can fuck Black Friday. Buy independent and buy local when you can.
