They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

This post was about Gareth Sheridan, (Irish presidential candidate for ~17 seconds) who just showed up at Tucker Carlson's Christmas party over the weekend.

The idea of shy boy Sheridan getting Sharon Keogan to introduce him to councillors - like a kid saying "will you shift my friend?" at a teen disco - would be hilarious if it wasn't, you know, Cork in Croke Park numbers of red flags.
Interviewed Gareth Sheridan this morning - he says it's time for an end to 'left - right divisive' politics.

That's despite being introduced to councillors by Senator Sharon Keogan - who said LGBT+ people were involved in an 'organised takeover' of society... and who has posted "#IrelandisFull".

SO I've no idea if I don't like spice bags or if I've just never had a good one. They seem very dry?

I'll cope across Christmas if I don't get an answer to this, but if anyone can advise where does a good one I'll be able to check at some point
All you need to know about the evolution of the spice bag. It now sits proudly alongside the spiceburger, jumbo breakfast roll, jambon and chicken fillet roll in the pantheon of great 21st century Irish dishes, writes @gastroirl.bsky.social @tudublin.bsky.social www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2...

I've heard a rumour that if you don't donate to the #LateLateToyShow Appeal, Paddy Labubu will visit you in 3 days.
Better not take that risk.
