Why are you talking about Donald Trump like he's a serious human being? You keep legitimising his madness. "Bending...to his will". He's politically blackmailing them. He's a mob boss, not some economic tactician. You are talking about someone who's complicit in genocide and economic destruction as

A United Airlines flight illegally transported ammunition handling systems – among military cargo overwhelmingly funded by the US government – to Israel through Irish territory this morning. They’re being delivered to the IDF’s largest weapons supplier. www.ontheditch.com/united-airli...

youtu.be/_TCmkV7rKvg The same thing is coming to Ireland. The public Service card, which has been illegally rolled out in Ireland has, after a second review, been fined for improperly storing biometric data. We've also recently purchased facial recognition vans those mentioned here #Ireland

Who did they compare it to, because there's accusations of price gouging going on in many countries. If you compare something bad to something that's also bad, it doesn't make the result good. It just means they're all greedy shites. #Ireland

"The Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) said that supermarkets here are not making any higher profit margins than those in other countries." That does not mean there's no price gauging, it means the ones in other countries are also price gauging.

Technocratic language again being used to hide the central bank's complicity in genocide. Don't forget the central bank is not there for you or me, it's there to protect the interests of the wealthy elites that rule this country and others. #SpeirGorm #Ireland

What I don't understand is how you think I agree with Netanyahu. I understand enough of Irish to understand you're a patronising, rude prick who believes that speaking Irish somehow makes you better than folks who don't. Is beag do leas i do léim.

I can't believe you're still having to fight after all this time. I remember listening in on tortoise shack and assuming you'd gotten justice. I should have known that's now how our system works when it comes to this sort of thing.

I was groomed, sexually abused and violently raped as a child in St John’s Ambulance Ireland. The man who did it was never charged. We need a full public inquiry no more silence. Thank you @ivanabacik.bsky.social for standing with survivors. www.irishexaminer.com/news/arid-41...

Stopped watching as soon as I heard the AI voice. Just to be clear, people in Ireland are not happy with the OTB. We were told it would be for goods AND services. It's been watered down to just goods, when most of the money we spend is on services. Is it something - sure, enough - no.

In fairness to many people, there's a lot of psychology behind this. It isn't a simple question of having or not having compassion. It’s the result of how our brains process imagery, narrative, moral complexity, and perceived agency. It's not just that people didn't care and now they do. When elites

Hey look, the UK’s Online Safety Act is resulting in the targeting of queer content. Well, who (barring everyone) could have foreseen that? Reminder that Ireland’s Online Safety Code seeks to ban anything it (unpredictably) finds to be likely to detrimentally damage the moral development of kids.

IMF = mechanism of economic colonialism that profits from crisis and uses those profits to push corporate driven austerity. In other words, who cares what they think. Tax wealth, not work.

I'm not denying his connection to this. If we get Trump though, there are also many other people on both sides who need to be got. This tribalistic focus on Trump is understandable considering but it risks missing the bigger picture. They're all in the same club.

In reality experts think they have the intelligence of a 5 to 7 year old child. Certainly more IQ than a number of people, if not at least that of some 5 - 7 year olds. They are super cool birds though! The fact they can create and use tools is amazing. I believe it's a new Caledonian crow.

Is there something specific you want me to see here or a point you want to make?

Green energy currently only ads to energy use. It is not replacing anything, energy use is higher than ever from all sources. Fossil fuel companies have no incentive to stop, so they won't.

This is a bipartisan problem. The Democrats didn't release them either.
