Scandalously at 1am, the government has just pushed through a law with far reaching ramifications.

It allows them to sign up to a parallel court process only accessible by corporations. There they can sue Ireland if we do anything to interfere with their "right" to profit.

I'm going insane because people constantly recommend using AI for things and it is always, ALWAYS worse than repeatedly bashing my head on a brick.

It's like you have an actual problem & all anyone recommends is "have you tried talking to my cousin? He drinks bleach & doesn't wash his pants"

Former FG TD John Deasy giving the game away.

This is the plan of FF/FG on immigration - use it to distract from their failures on housing.

Don't let them. Don't be distracted.

They're the reason there are 16,000+ homeless now, and why it will continue to get even worse.

Every far-right riot and protest that was tolerated, every racist dog whistle from public reps, every bit of hate and misinformation allowed to spread by social media companies, all led to this moment in Drogheda last night where someone felt emboldened enough to try to burn children alive.

1/ Spoiled votes in any election are counted but only overall, they don't have one pile for 'We love Maria Steen' and another for 'Eff you Fianna Fail' like. So any spoiled vote including blank ones, or ones where someone puts an X in all three boxes are all put in the same pile and counted up.

Cancel paramount now. Star Trek is not a good enough reason to stay on that platform.
In case you needed ANOTHER reason to cancel Paramount Plus (you know, besides making racist transphobe Bari Weiss head of @cbsnews.com or saying they won't work with actors who support Palestine), they're just broadcasting unedited Israeli pro-genocide propaganda now.
