I am going to become the Joker

Haven’t seen my twin since Christmas and by chance she was flying into Edinburgh to go to Inverness so I met her for a coffee. Completely fucked up taking the bus home & ended up past the airport rather than to go home. Left the apartment at 12, won’t be home until after 6. I am now double sad. :)

I can’t take another piece on reversing young men’s response to feminism going too far, it’s just been reported that Kyle Clifford, the man that killed his ex girlfriend, her sister and her mother with crossbow and a knife, searched for Andrew Tates podcast before the murders.

dressing matching to present a "unified front" except it's 4 different colors so no one will even notice is like, the ultimate Democrat move. i couldn't write something this perfect

Why does the climate crisis not count as an existential crisis that allows us to break fiscal rules ?

Underfunded legal aid system may struggle to support asylum seekers next year, suggest documents released under the FOI Act. dublininquirer.com/2025/03/05/u...

Great London, great.

The defence amendment act 2006 already fixed this issue. The UN general assembly can authorize peacekeeping missions. So this is an outright ✨lie✨

A Healy-Rae stands & shouts "Hoo du u tink u arr !?!" Confused, the Ceann Comhairle looks across both sides of the chamber to see which Healy-Rae posed the question & which side will answer, but alas it is folly, because the Dáil is now trapped in ... The Healy-Rae Superposition! #IrishPol

This is a huge story really

Is it time for the story of how I passed out briefly while having a shit in the Scientology shop on Tottenham Court Road?

Remember when sex workers' rights advocates begged people to start using the word "trafficking" properly because misuse would only lead to an ever expanding definition that would result in finding ways to criminalize people for non trafficking offenses? Pepperidge farm remembers.

Meant to post this last week, but my partner and I recently moved to Scotland and he’s a huge fan of Connolly - so I got him a print from @ciaraioch.bsky.social to help decorate our new apartment. I’m genuinely blown away by the level of artistry put into the print AND packaging. I mean, come on!

*Again* the Guardian takes a wide-ranging report demanding big changes, & chooses a headline & picture blaming takeaway food eaten by poor ppl (based on 1 footnote). They did the same with food & farming report couple of months back - which didn’t mention chicken shops & barely takeaways & but 👇👇

What the government can’t afford: ❌Lifting children out of poverty ❌Disability benefits ❌Compensation for WASPI women ❌Winter fuel allowance What the government can afford: an extra £13.4 billion on the military. Never any money for the poor. Always enough money for war.

All this bullshit immediately crumbles when it's presented to anyone who's not a sympathetic cohost on your podcast

Exactly why I've been writing, podcasting, and damn near screaming about using the right language. The mainstream media is failing us SO badly right now. Stop. Calling. This. Shit. DEI. This is (re)segregation. This is racial purging. Cleansing Black people from positions of power.

Why does every Ted Talk guy become stupid in exactly the same way

All of these types of articles, about arts, or politics, or grocery prices, or housing... they're all variations on a theme: you better be nice to power, or power will hurt you. There is of course truth in those words, but it should be treated, universally, as an adversarial proposition

I find this very moving: a 10-year-old Ukrainian boy who moved to the West of Ireland 2 years ago as a refugee, speaking in Irish of his love of playing Irish music

So government are unhappy with a Palestinian family accessing a visa scheme set up for Ukrainians. The question we should be asking is why they set up a bespoke scheme for one single Nationality & left everyone else, including Palestinians & Sudanese, to people smugglers?

Not one man is interviewed in this piece, all mothers, reenforcing the idea that childcare and housework is theirs by default and working is on top of that. It doesn’t mention the role of these children’s fathers at all. I actually cannot believe what I read, it’s full on tradwife propaganda

Appeasing fascism on pretty much every level, these lads ...

I have to applaud @thejournal.ie because they seem to be the only news outlet actually interested in debunking falsehoods around these incidents. #speirgorm #stoneybatter

Ireland had the opportunity to be an egalitarian republic where the most vulnerable were always protected, and instead we got a partitioned country built for landlords and the corrupt, veiled behind a thin layer of bowls of shamrock and Aran sweaters so tourists don't notice the rot.

The existence of so-called ‘Super Juniors’ Ministers is a political stroke designed to spread around the spoils of office. This government has gone even further in this stroke to facilitate the Lowry group with the creation of four so-called ‘Super Junior’ roles. #LowrysLackeys

A wheelchair user in Athenry, Co Galway said she feels forgotten about on her eleventh day without electricity since Storm Éowyn

"People want to go back to the idea of being a white country or the idea of the patriarchal family, the principle that marriages are for heterosexuals. 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝘁 𝗮 𝗻𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗳𝘂𝗿𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁." english.elpais.com/culture/2024... #LGBTQIA #Queer #SpéirGorm #BomSky #IrishSky #IndiaSky

They literally bought the last election and there's gonna be some serious buyers remorse with this government until the next election when they buy that election as well lol

Imbolg sona!! Spring is here, winter is over, beannachtaí na féile Bríde everyone!!

"February-isn't-Spring" people, remove the coloniser from your mind

Twitter is dead dead. Proper famous people still posting from huge accounts and getting single digit engagement. I really think now that the plan all along was to tank it because it empowered accountability movements like blm or me too

I’ve gotten an immense confidence boost today as someone who would’ve been my line manager in a previous job, is asking me about the job I’m leaving cause they’re considering applying. 10/10 feeling.

You there boy, is there a new Taoiseach today?

I'm 100% serious on this theory: Elon failed the famous vibe check at the door of a Berlin nightclub, next thing you know he's invading Poland

In all seriousness, above all else, if today has showed us anything it’s that the opposition aren’t willing to let the establishment do as they please by arrogantly trying to change the rules of the game. Which is great! This is exactly what should be expected of the opposition!

CC Verona Murphy attempting to bulldoze on with the nomination of Taoiseach without the order of business being voted on/agreed, results in further chaos. Could we see a vote of no confidence in Murphy as CC ? Dail resumes tomorrow, and I have no doubt this issue will continue. #SpeirGorm

There we go

If the Gov are going to game the system by allowing members to sit in opposition, maybe the opposition can game the system by refusing to allow the Dáil to sit

Today’s Dáil sitting is the finest piece of TV I ever did witness.

There's a very interesting section of this article about this man, like many before him, trying to use his children and their mothers to get out of being held accountable for what he did and failing www.thejournal.ie/defence-forc...

Two men found guilty of sexual assault in one headline … of course McGregor supports Trump - aithníonn ciaróg ciaróg eile - #speirgorm
