Stop trying to be liked by everybody You don’t even like everybody

Worst. Episode. EVER.

Thanks @toniewalsh.bsky.social for your time & patience yesterday talking to those teens, one was mine & they were blown away by you 'is maith liom on diva Tonie, can he be my uncle?' is the msg I got an lunchtime GRMA🏳️‍🌈

Protect abortion rights in the EU. Sign the My Voice, My Choice initiative for safe and accessible abortion.❤️ Link in bio. #myvoicemychoice

Please tell me this isn't going to backfire on us all? The whole world rallying to a president to say no need for elections in a time of war.......

Terry Pratchett had this one nailed in Feet of Clay we don’t do kings here

RTE now giving nonsense of Progress Ireland (Stripe's billionaire's 'think tank') air-space, it is back of the envelope and appalling to see this getting into policy-thinking. Planning and regulation counts - they work for people's benefit. We have lots of expertise in Ireland - this is not it

The idea is to go back to prefermine days when small tenant farmers split up their little patch of land into ever small little patches of land for their childer and henceforth we all survive on little postage stamps, why we grew potatoes in ever smaller window boxes

Everyone's giving out about FFFG's sheds-as-homes idea, but you CAN afford - and choose! - to buy an actual house in this country instead if you just marry *taps figures into calculator* seven people

Honestly at this stage, I am not surprised people are not forming collectives and breaking into derelict properties and making them habitable. Esp one where the landlords are absent and there are no agents. #housing #speirgorm

Hear hear Call them out when you hear it, email them & don't let them continue on their current path without comment

If supply meets demand, the value of homes plummets. Equity disappears. FF and FG are purposely avoiding this. Why? They and their base hold considerable equity. It's a manufactured crisis. Strip my equity, if it means my peers get homes. Fuck being greedy.

That brand new think tank Progress Ireland wrote an article today saying granny flats should be allowed to be built in people’s garden without planning permission. And they should be called semoraí for some reason. Mad how their solutions involve…. Less regulation.

Following this txt from school, I immediately rang my 13yo. Parents had to collect or they had to txt the child's phone with permission to walk home. This was a bomb scare, and the school needed to rely on kids phones. The government are spending €9 million on phone pouches for schools.🤔 #speirgorm

The great stitch-up begins in Riyadh today, as the US government seeks to hand eastern Ukraine, bound and gagged, to Putin. This, as Trump knows and wants, will encourage Putin to threaten and destabilise the rest of Europe. *Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine.*

time to dig up the @adamkotsko.bsky.social tweet

Finger crossed there’s no invite- no bending the knee, with the auld bowl of shamrock in hand, to that crazed racist, virulent transphobe & raging misogynist in the White House … nor should he give one to Trump!

“The idea that I think the country is working in any way is a luxury opinion that's held people who have access to property already.” Adam - SpiceBag - Doyle Full #EchoChamberPod out now: open.spotify.com/episode/3gZh...

is that #jimocallaghan on @rteone.rte.ie right now? #thisweekrte That dog whistle is loud AF #justinemccarthy letting him off Ooohhh it's getting worse

Thankfully a very rare occurrence but was obliged to sit through a Catholic mass this morning. It was a graphic reminder that there is no hate like christian 'love'.

I wfh 3 days per week, I think my teens don't pay attention to what I do, I got a surprise when 2 of them accurately described how I work, how I interact with people & many of the things I do I'll never go into an office full-time again, unless it's walkable from my house & has flexible work

Is there any clearer example of the commercial property investor class’ grip on the media than constant articles criticising working from home

Me in 1999: “That South Park movie was wacky, imagining an American imperialism so deranged that they decide to invade Canada in a crusade of censorship. 😂” Me in 2025: 😐

Excellent as it is, you don't need the book to know what happens, MA lived in Ireland for part of the time while writing the tale, ask us millenial/genx Irish women We know bsky.app/profile/tara...

Thread reminded me I needed to go in to renew my card, so I did & our local library is such a gem Met a newly-minted citizen, joined a local eco group & got the printing I needed done, all in a gorgeous old schoolhouse within walking distance #libraries are the absolute goat

Seven years on from when the then-schoolgirl Greta Thunberg first began her simple call for action on climate change, it's remarkable - and so telling - that she is *still* living rent free in the minds of some of the world's most privileged and powerful men
