This 👇 The good doctor has nailed it. I read several "reports" earlier and they are all biased.
As a woman with a trans/intersex history, it's hard.
Thanks @pantibliss.bsky.social for expressing so eloquently what I felt
It looks like every Irish outlet (that I've seen so far) has just transcribed a wire services report about the Linehan trial that is *dripping* with anti trans bias, misgendering the victim, calling the teenage victim an "activist" but not Linehan, and eliding the fact that the victim was a child

On this, the 30th anniversary of the introduction of divorce in Ireland, I'm reflecting how my divorce came through in 2000 and our marriage was annulled by the Catholic Church.
I have committed a sin by divorcing someone I was never married to because they annulled the marriage 🤷‍♀️

A 2003 poll for Q magazine saw a panel of music writers vote "Agadoo" as the worst song of all time, saying: "It sounded like the school disco you were forced to attend, your middle-aged relatives forming a conga at a wedding party, a travelling DJ act....every party cliche you ever heard."

On this day in 1995, Ireland narrowly voted to end its 70-year constitutional ban on divorce, with 50.28% in favour and 49.72% against. The referendum's close result, decided by a margin of just over 9,000 votes, reflected deep societal divisions on the issue.

The River Thames froze on this day in 1715 kicking off a months-long "Frost Fair" where Londoners created a temporary town on the ice, selling goods, holding events like ox roasts and puppet shows, and even having coaches drive across the frozen river. This event was part of the Little Ice Age.

The president of the United States can openly insult a female reporter and there are no repercussions.

That's the world we live in today. Just think about that.
