RIP my Mam, Margaret O'Rourke (nee Perkins) who passed away peacefully today, wrapped in the love of her family & many friends. Mam was a pioneer - the 1st woman journalist on any provincial newspaper in Ireland. She was active & engaged in her community right up to the very end. RIP Mammy Kamikaze
Picture taken 2 weeks ago of my Mam, a very youthful looking woman approaching her 91st birthday. She is smiling at the camera & wearing grey plaid pants, a lilac cardigan & blue t-shirt with floral pattern. On the wall behind is a picture of her with her sister Dorothy, her lifelong best friend, who died 7 years ago.

The Bible literally says that a woman can be created from a man’s rib, Janet.
Telegraph and Mail journalist Janet Murray on Facebook: Apparently the Church of England has ordained its first 'transgender woman' - following a 'gender transition'.
Now, I'm no biblical scholar. But I did go to a faith school, study compulsory RE until I was 16, and get an 'A' in Religious Studies (back when that was the top grade). So I'm scratching my head here.
Genesis says God created humankind "male and female". Where does the Bible say that men can become women? Sarah Jones is a man, not a woman.

The new Irish flag will just be white. It's more convenient because we can wave it at the tech giants and multinationals we're supposed to stand up to. It has the added symbolism of representing the civil war parties' idea of what an "Irish" person looks like.

And Kaja Kallas will make yet another pious sermon in announcing sanctions, talking about European values & international law & importance of supporting them - when it comes to Ukraine. While when it comes to Palestine there will be no action from the European Union. Because EU supports Israel.

But there is never inaction on Ukraine. Kaja Kallas herself said earlier this month that she is preparing the so far largest set of EU sanctions against Russia. It's the 24th or 25th round of sanctions against Russia. Member countries might delay it, but it won't be blocked.

Not just the last three years, but the last twenty years. European Union claims that it will do something to help Palestinians and then some member state or member state blocks action. And EU leaders basically say that intention is almost the same as action and people shouldn't complain.

No, European Union is just playing for time so that Israel can continue its atrocities and carry genocide and ethnic cleansing to a 'successful' end. EU's 'divisions' is theatre with revolving member countries blocking action. This has been going on for decades. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQBv...

What was presented was.... three different loughlinstowns around the country with what looks to be the same paternal standard of care as before, except they might not ask you what you masturbate to. Maybe. It honestly looks like marketing for govmt ministers so they can say they did something.

Here. Let me save the HSE a bunch of money, time and campuses. - GPs get training on trans people. - GPs get training on HRT for trans people. - We go to GPs and say "Can haz hormonez?" - HSE has a spreadsheet of specialists we can be referred to. - None of this is gatekept.

I just had a focus group meeting over some draft ideas of the new HSE trans model of care. I almost exploded. I said before the ideas were presented that at best, I thought the HSE would do fuck all, at worst, I thought they'd find more efficient and effective means to abuse us. I was so right...

I so much want to love the BBC, but then they do this kind thing. The headline here should be ‘anti-migrant protestor attacks RNLI boat’, but they don’t even mention that, in a report. He merely “shared a livestream”. (And it was updated an hour ago, so this isn’t an issue of confirmation.)

Don't know what to say anymore
Protesters amassed in Gosport, Hampshire, after rumours spread that the migrants might be brought ashore by lifeboats there. Police closed off access roads to the marina as activists rallied by Thomas on YouTube arrived to attempt to block the boat’s arrival. Crowds of masked protesters confronted a line of police to chants of “let them drown” sung by a child over a megaphone.

22/23 The sea is already an unforgiving environment. We created safeguards precisely because it kills people. Political protest ashore is one thing. Entering an active rescue operation and physically interfering with vessels is something very different.

21/23 There is an uncomfortable precedent here. If one group concludes it can physically intervene at sea because it believes the state is not enforcing policy strongly enough, another group can make exactly the same argument about another cause tomorrow. Maritime law can't function like that.

4/23 The distinction matters. A person does not stop being a person in distress because somebody believes they entered the sea illegally. Search and rescue is not an immigration hearing conducted offshore. The legal status of the person can be dealt with afterwards. First, you stop them dying.
