When I say I "miss" a certain food as a vegan I feel a strong urge to clarify that I DO NOT miss the specific animal-based component. I mean that this would likely be possible (and maybe even good) without the animal part but I'm sad that they put animal parts in it!!

So Frank Turner is going to stop touring after Lost Evenings 10 so I have roughly 13 months to process the fact that Frank Turner is going to stop touring.

Child safety experts: It is crucial we use the correct terms for things, even if they make us uncomfortable, so children can understand unsafe behaviour. Content in the year 2026: So this pdf file had child 🌽 and turned out to be a 🍇ist who SA'd a bunch of people before he unalived them.

hope the irish men's football team will take a good look at themselves they're honestly not likely to ever touch real glory from the sport, but they have a chance to become moral heroes by refusing to play israel history will remember those who stood against genocide more than some footballers

Of course it's not fair that the players were put in this position. But they are and now they have responsibility to do the right thing. #StopTheGame

3 years in and the bbc is still pulling this nonsense for them, hamas attacks israel and kills a definite number of people but israel doesn't attack palestine, it launches an offensive in it it doesn't kill people, but people may be killed during it how many? a subject for debate
The armed Palestinian group Hamas attacked Israel on 7 October 2023, killing about 1,200 people and taking 251 hostages.

In response, Israel launched a massive military offensive in Gaza, during which more than 73,000 people have been killed, according to the territory's Hamas-run health ministry, whose figures are considered reliable by the United Nations (UN).

8 years after Repeal, those seeking abortion in Ireland are still subject to an unnecessary 3 day waiting period, an unworkable 12 week cut off, and a lack of providers throughout the country. If that doesn't sound very much like Repeal to you, join the march in Dublin this Saturday!

Green Day doing a joint anniversary post for American Idiot and ¡Uno! definitely feels a bit "my daughter won two Olympic medals and my son started high school".

I think one thing that would really help is if one could add or edit alt text after posting. Sometimes people forget (or, like me, have a time-sensitive meme that just cannot wait). Having that option would be way better than expecting them to delete the post altogether.

It was a fairly staggering miscalculation by a “culturallly Irish” musician to think that two Irish acts, and another of outspoken politics and Irish heritage, would go along with the tour after his statement earlier.

It really irritates me when a celebrity does something shitty and people chime in with things like "I never liked him" or "His music sucks", as if their confirmation bias makes them intelligent. But also Ed Sheeran's music sucks and I never liked him.

I was 11 years old on 9/11 and I wasn't phased by it upon first hearing about it. I knew that we bombed other countries. I saw Saddam Hussein on Animaniacs. I assumed other countries bombed us sometimes. My parents had to sit me down to explain why we're above the violence we inflict on others.

I don't want to be more in line with the rest of the EU on citizenship. I want us to repeal the fucking 27th Amendement and return to our own tradition of birthright citizenship instead of the jus sanguinis shite that tells people born and reared here they aren't Irish if they have immigrant parents

You don't actually have to "bring Ireland in line with other countries". Sometimes other countries suck.

I've been screaming about this for three years to no avail, but if your "antifa" "gegen rechts" "radical" group calls this anything other than a genocide, if you're still platforming pro-Israel voices, if you still think that BDS is the problem, you are absolutely no better than your nazi ancestors.

I really do think that refusing to call what Israel is doing a genocide is genocide denial. I don't think there is good faith room for disagreement. I don't think saying, "they're committing war crimes" is sufficient. 1

Obviously that ADHD documentary was a load of unscientific tripe but knowing how the UK works, Parliament will probably be debating a ban on ADHD meds by next Tuesday.
