I was recently told that Ireland doesn't have the capacity or knowledge to develop offshore wind. Lol...... This govt would outsource our souls if it could figure out a way to monetise.

Tech bro Elon looking to depopulate the world. Not joking.

Good summary of the sweeping cuts that are dismantling US government. Truly nihilistic stuff. As always useful.to see what the future could be for us all if the fascists make further inroads into our shaky democracies 😭

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

COVID brain damage impacting driver behaviour ....I'd absolutely believe it!

TRUMP: The NCAA has complied immediately. That's good. But I understand Maine -- is the governor of Maine here? JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here TRUMP: Are you not gonna comply? JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all

"Hitler concluded his speech by giving a provocative gesture that resembled the controversial salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally last month."

Every day the news highlights the various forms of cruelty perpetrated by the state on the people living here. Whether it's moving Ukrainian kiDs from their accomodation, the horror of housing crisis, lack of services. And on and on and on. This interview was particularly heartbreaking though 💔💔💔

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

Discourse that used to be concise informative Twitter threads are now ten minute long Tik Tok videos.

The pace of dismantling America's public services is quite breathtaking. All this illegal activity is more or less unchallenged too. And the media...wow ... Wouldn't be surprised if the postal service is outsourced to Jeff Boxez sometime soon

Agreed, pass it on.

Yes

The good news is i saved you 60 billion dollars. The bad news is that is a typo i saved you 600 dollars and also your plane is falling out of the sky

The accelerationist belief that if things get bad enough, then things will start to get better is quite something to see in the wild. It’s wrong though. Historically, misery creates more misery and is visited on the most marginalized in ever intensifying cycles of horror.

Gasps

I sit in my dwelling. A shed in someone's back garden. Alone. No room to host friends. The pubs closed at 4pm. The lights go. The electricity is needed for data centres.

Rory Hearne of @social-democrats.bsky.social expressed concern that "exemptions could be used by bad landlords to "squeeze more renters into unsuitable conditions". He's absolutely right. It's also going to be viewed by some as a way to become landlords more affordably.

"Priced out of the housing market? Try living in a hut in your parents backyard" is now the official government stance We are so fucking cooked man

Now that wokeness is dead the Mars corporation is finally free to put lead back into the M&M's coating

That Marco Rubio, who did nothing of note in his 15 years in the Senate other than unsuccessfully run for President, is negotiating with Sergey Lavrov is fucking terrifying. We're going to be lucky if Rubio doesn't agree to give back Alaska.

Death to AirBnfuckingbnb Yet another reason to boycott this vampire squid entity. The few bob in our pockets is a powerful tool in fighting fascism

Jesus

Many Europeans looking at the US slide into fascism in fear, and the solution to whatever evil is coming is not there, it's here. The ONLY thing that ever defeats fascism is not appeasement, or alignment - it is solidarity, in our homes and on our streets, in our schools and workplaces. No pasarán.

BREAKING: Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya's son describes the horrific torture Israel is inflicting upon his father. Dr. Abu Safiya is the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, and was arrested protecting his patients from IOF forces. He is in solitary confinement and HAS NO CHARGES.

Deputy leader of the AfD Beatrix von Storch is the granddaughter of Hitler's Minister of Finance Lutz von Krosigk (pictured here on the left w/ Goebbels) and Chancellor of the Third Reich (May 1945). She has previously advocated the shooting of immigrants who do not have visas.

Utterly infuriating, what this country does to its autistic children and their parents. Reading this national treasure utter the sentence 'any change that happens now will be too late for my child' about her 3 year old daughter has fucking broken me.

This is all illegal and unconstitutional. I just can’t stop saying it. This administration is likely to dismantle all of the programs I worked with over the last 25+ years. Programs designed to save lives and $ by applied climate science. Used by many 1000s of Americans to manage water, energy, etc.
