Dubliner, transplanted to the Northeast of Ireland. He/Him. Paddystinian. Woke/virtue signaller/libtard/Marxist/communist. I’ve heard them all, so try to be original.
I spent most of my childhood holidays in Belfast as that’s where my grandparents were from. Only today did I get to visit the St. George’s Market for the first time. What a place! Could spend a whole day there. It was buzzing. Made up for seeing the Pink Ladies at City Hall…

I’m expecting the Irish Freedom Party and Clann Éireann and Justin Barrett and all his jumped up little cosplay friends and flag-shaggers and citizen journalists and Patreon Patriots and Herman Kelly and Derek Blighe and Gavin Pepper and Philip Dwyer to announce a big protest any day now. #spéirgorm

So in other words: not a ceasefire
At least 100 children have been killed by Israeli airstrikes and ground forces in Gaza since the start of a tenuous ceasefire three months ago, the United Nations said

I've signed this petition calling for the government to shut down X for producing sexual abuse images. Will you do the same? my.uplift.ie/petitions/sh... @uplift.ie
I've signed this petition calling for the government to shut down X for producing & sharing sexual abuse images. Will you do the same?
I've signed this petition calling for the government to stop X allowing their chatbot Grok to ‘digitally undress’ women and share sexualised and illegal photos of children. Will you sign too?

The idea that journalists, politicians, groups or - you know, women, people of colour, LGBTQ+ people - should "stay on the pitch" doesn't really hold up.

Foreign Minister's account has 60k followers - 40 likes, 13k views?

Blue ticks straight to the top of the queue with misogyny, bile.
This is the 'engagement' that the Irish government has been using to justify remaining on X. These are the top replies to a randomly chosen recent post.

Sad it’s needed. Delighted it’s being provided.

Oh lookit. It’s Tusla being unfit for purpose again.

Another independent panel to investigate where they fucked up. How many is that now?

Disband it ta fuck.
Armed gardaí raided hotel room as father threatened to kill son, three months before their deaths
Gardaí referred the incident to Tusla on the night.

Congratulations. You’ve done the bare minimum.
Media Minister has deleted his X account over its digital undressing scandal
X’s European headquarters is based in Dublin, but the platform has not been forthright on engaging with the Irish Government in relation to child safety.

Man, Star Trek V is much maligned. Sometimes fairly, sometimes not so. One thing it absolutely nails? The music. There’s no bad music in the TOS Trek films, but this film nails it. #startrek

Report X to Apple to get it removed from the AppStore: reportaproblem.apple.com/store/333903...

And for Google Play, report the X app “com.twitter.android” here:

Every piece of reporting I've seen on this is drastically understating the scale. These are from Grok's replies within a single minute. Time-to-reply is degrading because it has such a backlog of NCII/CSAM requests to fulfill. Conservatively I estimate it is producing more than 5000 of these per day

Does he not understand that X are facilitating this or…? Does it mean dealers are absolved of responsibility for people being drug addicts? The fact he chose to make these remarks, at the Young Scientist Exhibition, no less, should be enough for him to resign and have his browser history checked
Media Minister criticised for arguing X is not responsible for child sexual abuse images
The minister argued that technology is moving too fast for laws to keep pace.

One of my favourite non-Dublin pubs (and, briefly, my local) is for sale. If I’d a spare half mil, I’d be in.

I’m positively drowning in tostesterone today. I’m completely inept at DIY but managed to change 2 light switches (because those that came with my brand new house keep spontaneously disassembling) and build a mesh for our bedroom window to stop mice coming in. *flexes John Cena-like muscles*

Yet Israel continues bombardment and establishing illegal settlements across Gaza and the West Bank with impunity despite a “ceasefire”. OK, Trump, you syphallitic old corpse.

I don’t think Billy knows how elections work. Assuming some kind of scandal wouldn’t have latched onto him like a leech, because Fianna Fáil, all he’d have probably done was split Heather’s vote. There must be something in the water at FFHQ with the deranged sense of entitlement they seem to have

I think the two episodes of season two of #Fallout might so far actually be better than all of the last season. Really digging deep into the lore of the game while expanding more than they could through that medium.

These places deserve our business. Sitar in Dundalk has also done this for the last number of years.

Good, important work and absolutely fascinating.
