Northern Ireland is on a path to Lebanon-style decay if Stormont doesn’t urgently change its ways, MLAs have been warned - but the warning didn't appear to cause any alarm. Now the chance of Stormont reform is diminishing as Alliance goes backwards.
Northern Ireland on path to Lebanon-style decay if floundering Stormont doesn’t urgently change its ways, MLAs warned

Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:
Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

Retro Room Belfast (inside Cityside Shopping Centre) is a must-visit for gamers—the largest video arcade on the island of Ireland. Wall-to-wall classic coin-op cabinets, a buzzing social vibe, and seriously friendly owners at who deserve your support. I had a blast reliving 80s/90s nostalgia.🎮

Don’t listen to those to tell you fear minorities, the only minority you should be afraid of is the billionaires.

For those that need a little inspiration today. History teaches us that tyranny is unnatural and requires constant effort to maintain, people resisting it can break it. History teaches us that it never lasts, remember that. Original video by SWFT.

I just wish Government would get on with it, and tackle the big issues facing society. Like bringing back Vice versas and Secret bars.

I swear to God, if I actually graduate in December, I’m going to buy myself one of these things. Even if it means I don’t eat for a month.

The abuse LGBT+ people face for sticking up for their own community should shock any reasonable person. The vile harassment comes from an army of bots & well funded trolls who pretend that they’re victim. I’d love to see actual critical journalism covering this, not framing them as false victims.
Since the BBC article about the Polari Prize I've been receiving some 'lovely' emails.
1. Calling me a bully whilst sending threats is a choice...

The media’s talking points are that those who are anti-trans are inundated with nasty messages & threats. In fact it is the fans of transphobic extremists that behave with vitriol. Here’s how Sacha has been treated. I have also experienced similar. Transphobes are obnoxious bullies with no humanity.
