Loved this...I know a good few of the Galway heads in the video too.

If you liked this, there is a spoken word album of Michael D's poetry set to @mylesoreilly.bsky.social's music coming out on September 5th I believe.

If you’re rioting or even just protesting because a foreigner has been accused of rape, but you never rioted or protested when a white Irish bloke was accused of rape, you are not a defender of women and are - quite literally - just a racist

capturing the feeling of the city as it moves between seasons.

It costs less to house people.
Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me
In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.
