At a time when some are turning in on themselves – Ireland will continue to engage and to look outwards.
I was delighted to speak to the Global Ireland Summit and to see so many leaders drawn from every section of our society gathered together to discuss our country’s place in the world.

This wretched coward should live his remaining days in fear over his refusal to stand up to the genocidal Israeli regime.

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

I would be happy if I never heard the name Graham Linehan again, but I do feel the need to comment, because the nature of a lot of the abuse trans people receive is straight up sexual harassment, but is not recognized as such because the victim is trans.
What Glinner is doing is sexual harassment.

Just for a second, take a step back, and remember that these are the actions of a 56 year old man towards a 17 year old girl.

Ban Black Friday full stop. Tis a load of yank consumeristic bollocksology.
Legitimate change to consumer law: reintroduce the clause where a ‘discounted’ price can only be advertised if the previous ‘higher’ price was charged for a minimum period of time, e.g. 30 days of previous 90
While they’re at it:
Ban ‘Black Friday’ promotions ending before Black Friday occurs

I’m not sure if BlueSky just isn’t the place for art, isn’t the place for selling art, or if there’s a hinky algo here too, that buries sale posts. But if you see this, do me a favor & like it, just so I can get a sense of whether there’s any point to pound this particular pavement with comics work.
Reminder that all the art on my Big Cartel page is 20% off. Sale ends Wednesday night. Sale price automatically applies at checkout. bradwalker.bigcartel.com/products

The housing crisis keeps people from being able to leave abusive situations. Not being able to afford to rent a room on their own, or not wanting to move their kids into a homeless refuge for months if not years.

hey can anyone tell me which country has historically caused ireland the most problems, i was born yesterday
When it comes to modern war, Ireland is a high-value target: its waters on the western fringe of Europe contain three-quarters of all undersea cables in the northern hemisphere. Despite this, is unprotected and unprepared.
