Was looking for art images of Mr. Tayto and just want to know which one of ye is responsible for this

I saw that my witticism was unperceived and quietly replaced it in the treasury of my mind.

When you first heard me speak against this genocide, you heard my words as betrayal. But they were meant as love | Sarah Schwartz
Not speaking would go against everything I was taught to honour: the righteous among the nations – those who refused to be bystanders to injustice

Tá obair na gcapall déanta ag Catherine Connolly ar son seirbhísí sláinte is tithíochta i nGaillimh Thiar, ar son na neodrachta agus ar son na Gaeilge. Mar gheall ar an gclaonadh láidir ina haghaidh ar RTÉ is ar an Times, braithim go bhfuil sé tábhachtach é sin a rá www.oireachtas.ie/ga/members/m...

Bean inspioráideach agus ceist fíor-dheacair á phlé aici. Lasair sa dorchadas.
It’s long past time that I take responsibility for what I wrote on Israel/Palestine in ON REPENTANCE AND REPAIR.

& with the Gaza genocide, our thinking about what amends & healing may ever involve is even more urgent.

Even if there may never be “forgiveness” or “atonement.”

Banksy satirised the state silencing those opposed to Israel’s genocide.

The state then inadvertently made his artwork genius.

Our lead ship on the Global Sumud Flotilla was droned and caught fire. The six who were onboard are safe, and our mission will continue. They know international opinion is turning inexorably against them. Bombing peaceful humanitarians won’t exactly help that, but it’s the only response they’ve got.

Charlie Byrne's bookshop in Galway will go to remarkable lengths to get a book for you if it's not in stock. And they will post free anywhere in Ireland. No excuse, then, for supporting the genocidal multinational corporation – sadly – behind Hodges Figgis.
Hodges Figgis is indeed a lovely shop, but that doesn't matter a fuck when they discipline staff for showing solidarity during a genocide.

Thankfully Dublin has plenty of indy & Irish owned chains to buy books from, like the ones mentioned below as well as Gutter, Dubray, Easons etc

Oooffff, apparently Hodge Figgis are on the side of Big Genocide, including firing a staff member for his stance on supporting Palestine.
Shop in your LOCAL (non-UK operated) bookshops, people.

I've always been sceptical of 'sunlight is the best disinfectant', but I looked it up and apparently it is healthier to hang laundry outside. So maybe that is what we should do with fascists.
