Ok so @simonharrisireland.bsky.social accepts that the kidnapping by Israel of Irish people on flotillas heading to Gaza was illegal - what actions is he going to take to address this breach of international law? #speirgorm
thejournal.ie
Speaking in the Dáil today, Simon Harris said the activists were trying to do something about the "humanitarian catastrophe and genocide" in Gaza and that they posed "no threat".

He denounced their detention as illegal.

Today is actually International Lesbian day, Lesbian Visibility day is in April.

We have two because, as they say, a day without lesbians is like a day without sunshine, and you all deserve at least two sunny days ☀️

Got an email from Amazon to be part of their invite only "Brands of Ireland" campaign which apparently aims to help businesses for Black Friday, Christmas etc. Sounds nice but Amazon is a killer of small businesses and they can fuck Black Friday. Buy independent and buy local when you can.

She’s hoping to treat his ear mites and whatever else he’s carrying on him (😬) soon, once they’ve built up some more trust.

My friend is working on making friends with this little fella (he’s been named Paudie). A stray who doesn’t like humans much but is very slowly coming around.

Look at the squidgy little face on him😻

He’s put on a good bit of weight which is fab as he was pretty underweight to begin with.
A very sweet looking tuxedo cat in a garden. His head is tilted adorably and he sits neatly with his white socks together and his black tail wrapped around his paws. He is an absolute cutie pie.

Am only catching up now on the animal cruelty story about FG candidate for President, Heather Humphreys.

She sent a letter to the Dept of Agriculture, about a live legal case regarding ‘stomach churning’ animal cruelty, on behalf of the farmer involved. The case was then dropped.

FF is imploding, budget day, and Presidental election.

Could someone at least drop them in some pastries or something?

Someone at the IT is having a 'mare rushing out the Budget coverage.

This was a sponsored post in my Insta Stories.

The social team needs a break and a hug maybe.
A post from Instagram stories with a swipe up link for the Irish Times. A composite image of Leinster House, Jack Chambers and Paschal Donohoe is titled "Budget 2026: Main Points" but the bullet points that follow comprise non-sensical filler text (Lorem ipsum) and snippets apparently borrowed from a restaurant review (One point reads: "Borgo review: Well-priced and welcoming", the next "everything a good neighborhood", and finally "restaurant needsLorem ipsum dolor sit amet")

Don’t complain & use your voice!

Catherine Connolly TD, leader in the Irish presidential election campaign. Throughout the campaign she has been the only intellectual voice & when challenged* gives thoughtful honest responses.

At this stage, my main motivation for trying to learn enough Gaeilge to be able to post on here in it is to no longer receive replies from the specific type of North Americans that are all over the timeline at the moment having an absolute meltdown in Irish people's mentions. We can free ourselves.

As somebody with asthma who uses inhalers - SHUT THE FUCK UP. THIS ARTICLE IS SHAMING PEOPLE WITH A CHRONIC CONDITION.

"Significantly" My ass. You know what else does? AI Data centers - corporations - cows - asphalt - THOUSANDS OF OTHERS THINGS THAT ARE NOT MEDICINE.

Fuck you - fuck you again.
Inhalers contribute significantly to global warming, study finds
Millions of Americans using inhalers for chronic lung diseases like asthma may be unknowingly contributing to global warming, according to new research.

Three of the kidnapped Irish participants on the Global Sumud Flotilla arrived home to a huge welcome last night. They talk about why they tried to break apartheid Israel's illegal siege of Gaza, acting because our governments refuse to. #FreePalestine #LiftTheSiege

My sincere thanks to everyone who has supported the Global Sumud Flotilla. I'm home safe & will be followed by the other Irish people today. I'm just catching up and have much more to share but for now I am so so grateful for everyone's attempts to free us. Remember that Gaza is the story not us.

“As friends of Ireland and strong advocates for a close relationship between Ireland and the United States, we write to express our deep concern over Ireland’s one-sided approach to Israel, a vital ally of the United States,” say 23 members of Congress.

I was one of the leaders of Scrap The Green Paper because I & my friends were suicidal after learning proposals for ~84% of disabled to be pushed into work

I've not recovered from pushing myself to fight it, nor my friends

I'm so broken & Humphreys wants a house in the park on our backs

The GRA was passed in 2015 with very little fanfare following years of courageous campaigning by trans people. We have yet to see any negative ramifications in society - and we won't.

We simply *cannot* have a President of Ireland who speaks about trans women or their human rights in this way.

I'm not linking to the article but Heather Humphries thinks the Gender recognition act needs to be looked at, and trans women are not women. #Aras25 #SpeirGorm

I think it *is* sometimes possible. Financial and social conservatism don’t always align and I think the former is more widespread in Ireland these days.
