News footage from Portland shows a calm, tranquil city. But an AI video that Stephen Miller texted to Donald Trump shows the city as a burning hellhole. The truth may lie somewhere in between.

Catherine Connolly never thanked the driver when she got off bus 10 years ago.

I saw Catherine Connolly watch an ambulance pass by and she didn't bless herself.

Robinson managed to keep Ivana Bacik out of prison during the court case taken by SPUC for publishing abortion referral information in the back ages of a TCD SU freshers welcome booklet.

The brave SPUC went after Bacik (and others) as named individuals, not after TCDSU or TCD.

There are two candidates available to us in this election. It's an undeniable fact that one of them will better represent our most vulnerable citizens. I don't even need to say who it is. It's a small thing we can do to at least make these people feel like we haven't abandoned them. Vote. Please.

Here He Comes Again

The White House has been working 9 to 5 to keep us from finding out about the Donald's trips to Epstein's islands in the stream. But would the Epstein files be a silver dagger or will Trump's base always love him?

Social media is not helping.
Corporate centralised social media, that is.

Note that bsky is centralised (in spite of repeated claims that it's open, it absolutely is not).

In case nobody noticed, the bsky CEO has been banning accounts that are critical of transphobes.

Take aside that it was wrong ethically. It was dumb politically.

She could have looked straight into a camera and told the bigots to go and fuck themselves and they *still* wouldn't have anyone else to vote for, while -incredibly - pressuring connolly from the left.

Massive shot missed.

Back to the actual and current Presidential candidates -with all the Jim Gavin shenanigans of the last 24 hours it may have not grabbed people’s attention that Heather Humphreys just threw trans people under the bus in response to a Grift dot ie reporters question!So there’s that! #aras25 #speirgorm

I wouldn't limit it to FF.
The People Of Kerry who keep voting for the Healy Fucking Raes wouldn't stop voting for the Healy Fucking Raes over something like this.

VEGEMITE AUTOPSY:
What happens when you really REALLY want to kill the engine in an Aussie Ford Falcon?
You use an Aussie replacement for the engine oil.

From the same Aussie bloke who killed another car engine with Nutella.
Maybe watch the Nutella video first?

NEVER use Vegemite as Engine Oil.

I am an absolute defender of all free speech. Unless that free speech involves quoting a popular right-winger who died recently.

If someone’s not mourning the death of Robert Redford in a manner that’s consistent with your views, make sure you set up a database, call their employer, and get them fired.
