A lot of organisations there need to think long and hard about this. You wouldn't have an account on Truth Social, so why do you still have one there?

Another car-free summer is set to kick off in Dublin. Last August the first phase of the Dublin City Transport Plan banned private cars from parts of the city resulting in in a "substantial and sustained" reduction in traffic and an increase in bus journeys. buff.ly/ALuwR5x

More limits on cars in Dublin city centre planned
More measures to reduce private car use in Dublin city centre are to come into effect this summer.

Few random photos from the last few weeks around Dublin. 1) A beautiful sunny morning on the Liffey. 2) Great view of the city from Ticknock. 3) A Walter White fan strolling down Kevin Street. 4) Some welcoming toilet graffiti on Sin É on Ormond Quay.

On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country.
They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.

This is a bigger scandal than people realize.

It really makes it look as though this entire meeting was a setup by Trump that was planned in advance.

If you watch the video it is clear that they are deliberately and almost derangedly blindsiding Zelenskyy. Now we know who the audience was.

Putin.

We may as well start protesting outside the US embassy in Dublin at this stage. Plain as day the US government are now complicit with murderous Russia and intent on dragging the world into WW3. Absolutely disgraceful treatment of Vladimir Zelensky by subhuman, cowardly scumbags Trump and Vance.

I've emailed the Taoiseach now straight off that Zelenskyy video and told him how strongly I feel that he should not go to the White House. So at least I said something.

Really don't think our Taoiseach should be going to the White House to have the craic with the man who endorsed the ethnic cleansing of Gaza and now seeks to humiliate the President of Ukraine.

Was in Chaplins on Hawkins Street for a quiet pint after work yesterday evening and spied this stained glass piece depicting the River Liffey and the Custom House. Also features a pub called O'Reilly's, presumably Chaplins former namesake.

Lovely bottle or three of @ryeriverbrewingco.bsky.social stout this evening. Did the brewery tour in Celbridge a few weeks ago which was very relaxed and really good craic. Well worth a spin out.
