I had to read this one twice to see if it really said what I thought.

Hi. So now we have an official statement from #FermanaghOmaghDistrictCouncil on their media statement regarding single-sex spaces, it had we wondering. Why have we only heard from FODC?

So, I mentioned earlier that I am feeling very uncomfortable about the new HBO production of Harry Potter that #jkrowling is directly involved in. Its another for the Queen of TERF's to make more money and fund further transgender hatred. #Fuckjkrowling #HarryPotter #TransRightsMatter

Been thinking about the new HBO #HarryPottter TV series that's in the works. One way of hitting #JKRowling where it hurts is with this production. I would love to see this show crash and burn before it starts streaming. Better yet before they start filming. youtube.com/shorts/nV8Ny...

4 - The videos to "Come On My Selector" by #Squarepusher and "Elektrobank" by #ChemicalBrothers Okay, these are fairly odd ones and I'm not sure I can really explain them. But, I'll give it a shot. #MenCryToo

3 - Undertale There's something about this game from #TobyFox that is really special. Ever since my kids found this game and I started watching them play and hearing them discuss the characters, I was enthralled. #MenCanCry #Undertale #Temmie #sans #Papyrus

Frisk looks into the mirror at "New Home" in the underground.

The message reads, "Despite everything, it's still you. "

2 - Tangled Okay, of all the Disney films out there, #Tangled is probably not the one you'd expect on this list. It's not even a Pixar movie. But I do really enjoy this film. #mencrytoo

1 - Spirited Away So, I'll start this series with #SpiritedAway If you've never seen this film - who even are you. And, NO!!! It's not just a kids film. It's a heart-warming tale of self discovery that anyone can enjoy. #mencrytoo

Hayao Miyazaki's epic Spirited Away

My wife was watching "Look Both Ways" last night (a kinda Sliding Doors take on pregnancy - definitely one of her films) when the characters were discussing one of my favourite films, #SpiritedAway. As well as being a fantastic film, it's one of the few films that makes me cry. (1/3) #mencrytoo

Today is Worldwide Autism Awareness Day. As a person who was only diagnosed with autism when I was 39, I can definitely get behind any bid to raise awareness of ASD. Much love to you all, especially all you amazing Aspies out there. ❤️ youtube.com/watch?v=T4AD... #Autism #ASD #Aspergers #Aspies

Just taking a walk around #Antrim town this beautiful morning. Ended up in Steeple Park, home to this hidden gem - The Antrim Round Tower.

The Bullaun Stone and Antrim Round Tower - Steeple Park, Antrim

Local legend has it that a witch became so enraged because of the building of the tower that she flew to the top to attack the builders. But in her anger, she lost her balance and fell onto the large stone at the base. She landed on her knee and her elbow so hard that the stone still bears the marks of where she landed.

Antrim Round Tower at Steeple Park, Antrim

Once the location of a former medieval monastery, the 17-acre parkland includes the famous Antrim Round Tower, a scheduled monument which served as a bell-tower and place of refuge from raiders.

Just back from taking the dog for a walk in the early #Antrim morning. Does anyone else's cat follow them on walks? Ours will for a while but doesn't like big open spaces so we'll stop when I reach the field to let the dog off. #walkies #dog #cat

No cat pics today but allow me to introduce our dog, Willow. She met her twin at the dog park today. They didn't get on well (she's very protective of her ball and doesn't like to share). Still, a good walk and the run around tired her out. A little. She has endless energy.

🧵The welfare cuts announced today mean people don’t know how they’ll survive. Some fear they’ll have no choice but to take their own lives. This government must take responsibility for the impact of the Spring Budget on the mental health crisis. 1/5 #SpringStatement

Just wanted to post a reminder of this event coming up on Wednesday 26th. If you're in the Belfast area, I hope you can make it and show your support.

Eyewitness Palestine - An International Working Women’s Day Event

Organised by Belfast & District Trades Union Council

7pm - Wednesday 26th March – ICTU – Donegall Street, Belfast BT1 2FG

An eyewitness account from Palestine from Dianne Kirby (scholar and activist) and Judith Cross (trade union policy analyst) who have recently returned from Palestine as part of a delegation of conscience and as a human rights monitor in the West Bank, respectively.

Both will focus on the impact of the occupation and genocide on women and why we must send our solidarity without equivocation to all the people of Palestine.

The joy of working from home. Good to see my co-worker is already at his desk.

The cat resting on my chair as I'm about to start work. Hardest part of my job is telling him he needs to move.

They don't pay me enough for this.

Hi ya. Darth here. First day on BlueSky. Thought I'd set up a social media place for myself as I would like to become more politically active (we'll see how that goes). And of course I didn't want to use X for obvious reasons. You never know, I might just post pictures of my cat instead. Cheers!
