Did stuff in The Dudley Corporation. Did a little Screaming Parent. Was a SEABEAST. Did RTE 2XM of a Friday lunchtime. Will play to food.
@robcrow.bsky.social only took me 30 odd years, but look what I finally found!

One other point:

This is a FAR more effective way to ‘make social media safer for kids’ than u16 bans.

Bans sound good to many people but don’t work very well and may not actually change anything.

E Commission says TikTok now has to change the app — MUCH more effective than any u16s ban
Two observations:
1. Americans unlikely to scream about this one as much as TikTok Ireland/Europe isn’t ‘theirs’

2. Even if they did, atmosphere here has changed after Grok and Greenland — EU bodies and countries (incl Ireland) starting not to give a damn about US howling (cf u16 social media bans)
Big decision against TikTok.

EU Commission preliminary finding — TikTok is “addictive” (kids and adults).

Infinite scroll, autoplay, push notifications and recommender system.

Plus young kids not being detected.

Fine of up to 6pc turnover now possible.

C'mon folks, only 721 people to go and we've passed the Irish threshold. If you haven't signed this already, why not?

It's an important EU citizen led initiative that needs 7 countries to pass their threshold, and then the EU government machine is forced to talk about it.

As people post Catherine O'Hara clips today, any time you see one you don't recognize, take a moment to watch it. She was extraordinary. Each performance is a jewel to be treasured.

Ah man, rest well Catherine O'Hara, never not amazing in anything she turned up in.

This is the thing. Mr and Mrs Trump could care less about the box office, whole point of the grift was the $28m they've already been paid.
It's annoying that no level of humiliation will be enough with this thing. The President got the CEO of a major corporation to fun a movie about his wife in return for a seat at the table. There's no box office performance low enough to sink that as a concept

Sign! For ECIs to be considered by the European Commission, each country must meet its threshold, for Ireland that's 10,080. We are currently at just under 6,000, approx 58%, so we need a big push! Belgium, Finland, France and Spain are there, let's get there too!

This week, an X user created an AI video of me being chloroformed and prepared for rape.

Victims are told it's not real and they're getting offended for no reason.

But nudification tools are weapons of sexual assault, and the harm they cause is real 👇

If you spend money on anything Harry Potter, you are funding this.

If you think it's okay to continue being a fan and talking about it and putting your Hogwarts House in your profile since you already bought the books/movies, Rowling had stated the continued fandom shows you support her bigotry.
It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Is it not super weird that our head of State legs it on our National Day every year to make nice with America?
Like maybe we could invite world leaders to visit us on our National Day, in our actual country?
It's so subservient and forelock-tugging 😕
There is a growing mood among the opposition for Europe to face down Donald Trump and adopt a tougher approach as tensions continue to rise.

At home, TDs are questioning whether the Taoiseach should travel to Washington for the annual St Patrick’s Day engagements.

One of the stories that makes me the saddest out of this ICE invasion is one out of the Minnesota Star Tribune today about ICE agents eating at a little Mexican restaurant in the small town of Willmar, Minn, —and then, when they were done, arresting some of the workers.

If you use Spotify you are a scab.
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

Tesla has bucked a wider European slowdown to emerge as the most popular new car brand in Ireland last month, as electric vehicle sales surged overall.

New figures from the CSO show that Tesla was the top make of new private car licensed in December, with 175 registrations
