We need to get rid of the 12 week limit to abortion access for many reasons. But forcing a teenage asylum seeker who is having mental health problems, possibly due to being pregnant, to go to court to access care is abhorrent

Am with the Americans on this one, let’s embrace the dishwasher 😌*
* if your landlord buys you one
* if your landlord buys you one
Friendly reminder that dishwashers made after 1995 or so are so water and energy efficient that even if you ran them twice fully loaded it would still use less water than handwashing the same load.
So many "green" things feel like sacrifices. Dishwashers are not one of them.

Sometimes I think about the fact that the green bus from Dublin to Limerick (which is notoriously slow) is nearly as fast as the only bus that goes from Dublin to bray after 11.30 PM 🥲

Listening to Tánaiste Simon Harris's comments on the way into Cabinet this morning - accusing parties on the left of the 'extraordinary' move of 'trying to shut down debate' on immigration.

Crisis pregnancy centres are unregulated, and misinform pregnant people about their options. Yet, they continue to receive funding from the government and organisations such as the National Lottery.

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.

Since we’re talking about election coverage+the media, Ellen coyne has been a breath of fresh air on the IT’s inside politics. Just having someone point out that a lot of people were actually excited to vote for Connolly in amongst most of the “nobody liked these candidates” takes has been v welcome

My hot take of the day: the media is always going to find an excuse for why a left victory doesn't count. Enjoy the win anyway and know that your haters are seething.
The story today should be a left-wing landslide but the scale of the spoiled votes is going to shit all over it.

Side note: the relief of not unravelling an absolute scroll when I went to vote yesterday has me convinced we need to make getting on the ballot for European elections in particular much harder.

What we’ve seen across marriage equality, repeal, and this election is there’s about 60% of those who vote who want a progressive, inclusive Ireland. We need to focus on this 60% an not give oxygen to the 6% who have been slowly been sinking toward brain washing since Covid

That Philip Sutcliffe ballot has sickened me beyond belief and I honestly wish I hadn't seen it. Man alive, we need to come up with some way to deal with these people, and fast.

IN HER OWN CONSTITUENCY
Humphreys only drew level with Connolly. Only winning in her home town.
This is the ultimate narrative. Not spoiled votes. This is the most clear election ever.
As landslidey as landslides get.
The Irish people have spoken.
