The Ditch reported yesterday that Humphreys avoided paying business rates on her old constituency office after failing to declare she’s no longer entitled to an exemption.

Thank you. They don't give people like me big budgets...gotta work with what you got...because if the few of us don't hang on...all your stories will be told by the same kind of cis white zionist guys who wreak havoc on the world...

I loved this, it's smart and funny and incredibly well made on what looks like a tiny budget. So much good stuff packed in. And I learned a great new insult...Darth Karen!
It's sooo refreshing and delicious to have a film that's not the usual expensive but bland diet we get fed. Highly recommended.

I watched tonight. During the film had to stop a few times to tell my partner how fabulous I thought it was and how much I was enjoying it, this is very unusual. When it ended, I stood up in my living room and cheered...I was thoroughly engaged and entertained. Thank you, bualadh bos!

"I would smear the bejaysus out of her, simply because you've nothing to lose... you've got to create a fear... in my experience, nothing works like negative campaigning."

They're really openly saying the quiet part out loud now aren't they...🤔

This kind of development is why I've moved my writing account to the myatproto.social server for non-Black users run by Blacksky, and also taken out a subscription to Blacksky. It's a question for me of wanting more consistent and reliable moderation than Bsky provide.

Halloween is wonderful.
But the amount of waste the festival generates is truly terrifying.

Here are some tips on how to change that:

I'm so sorry for your loss. And grateful you had such a blessing in your life.

I often wonder this?

Is the law what courts say it is?

This seems like an easy question at first glance.

Politicians pass laws, courts interpret them.

But what if the courts go bad?

What if they start producing perverse interpretations of laws?

Are these perverse interpretations still legal?

And if not, what is?
ritawild.bsky.social
yes and
I have seen a transformation in the quality of life for LGBTQ+ people in Ireland in my lifetime due entirely to people, myself included, who fought for change, same with women and children.
But it takes so much and is so much harder than it needs to be because establishment is so resistant

This and the 'your pet is killing the planet' story appear every 2-3 months. Which, if you're keeping track, is far more often than 'billionaires will eventually kill the planet because it's all they really know how to do' stories, which stand at zero.

Not a single child should be living in poverty.
We need rid of this cruel government
