Just got an ad that said "AI generated performers" at the bottom. I really hate this timeline.

This makes me angry on so many levels. As a Dublin woman who avoided O'Connell St that week, as a queer librarian who's heard the impact on public librarians harassed by some of these men, but also we've seen in Belfast and over in Britain that arrested far right are majority domestic abusers.

"To put it bluntly, an X post today receives less than 3% of the views a single tweet delivered seven years ago." If you think it is necessary to be on Twitter to communicate your fact-based worldview, the reality is that worldview is being smothered.

The best idea in this is one the Greens came up with while in government. And no mention of protecting/incentivising remote working, one of the best and quickest solutions they could do. #SpéirGhorm

Protecting remote working, incentivising companies to adopt/keep it, and a 4 day work week, are all long overdue at this stage. #SpéirGhorm

No. It should instead regulate provider and enforce existing laws around the generation of CSAM and image-based sexual abuse content.

The story this week is so important, in my view. It's about the morals of Big Tech and billionaires with riches and power beyond limit - but just far broader than that how far are government and authorities here and around the world willing to let them go. (1/2)

This means that at least three ministers either don't know what the law is, including the media minister, or that they've lied publicly about it to protext X's business.

App stores threatened to remove Tumblr unless it cracked down on NSFW content. X has a feature that let's people create CSA content and this is the response it's getting? All government accounts should suspend X activity and the app should be banned in Ireland. #SpéirGhorm

Road deaths are increasing. Do you think that's because pedestrians are becoming less visible or because drivers are becoming more reckless and irresponsible?

Today, I saw a driver overtake a stopped bus and plough through a pedestrian crossing. He beeped three times as he sped though. The beeping was to warn people because, as he had overtaken a bus, he had zero visibility of who was about to step out onto the crossing. But sure, more hi-vis, everyone

Every far-right riot and protest that was tolerated, every racist dog whistle from public reps, every bit of hate and misinformation allowed to spread by social media companies, all led to this moment in Drogheda last night where someone felt emboldened enough to try to burn children alive.

Remember - the Irish government was told years ago when the total was still well under 10,000 how to eradicate homelessness by the man who did so in Finland, and it just ... didn't bother. And since then, the majority of you kept voting for them. Well done, everyone. Well done. 👍

I hope people call out this tactic of calling centre parties/people "left" or "woke" to try and shift the actual left and centre parties to the right. It worked with FF, FG, and SF, who have shifted further right. Thankfully the left parties haven't fallen for it. #SpéirGhorm #Áras25

Seven children, three women and one man from the same family. They were trying to get to their home to see what was left of it when the IDF used a tank to fire a shell at their car. The IDF has killed dozens of civilians since the 'ceasefire'

He should be aware of his own personal safety and take steps to be as safe as possible at all times.
A Garda van almost completely blocks a footpath outside the Garda station at St Kevin Street.

A 3 old on a balance bike squeezes through the gap. Someone in a wheelchair or a parent with a pram certainly couldn't.
