Seems like an appropriate time to repost this.
Bird flu is being painted as a problem wild birds are inflicting on the poultry industry, but it's precisely the reverse.
Where do they think it developed in the first place, if not in the disease incubators that are mass battery farms?

Locking phones up in school - the time when children are already LEAST likely to be on them - will do NOTHING to stop bullying, poor mental health, isolation, or radicalisation!
It will also have ZERO impact on the rabid transphobia that’s perpetuated through the mainstream media & politics! 😖

OK, for possibly the first or second time in my life I replied negatively to someone else's post.
I don't usually do it for all of the obvious reasons.
This time a dose of a Yank made some inane comment about the Irish being too drunk to be able to differentiate between a dog and a lion.

Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael are at their most dangerous now. They're lashing out in desperation to try and cling to power in any way they can. The only thing worse than #FFG swinging to the right before losing power, is FFG swinging to the right and keeping it. #spéirgorm

OK, we're going to need to know how the "fireworks" line made it out into the media, when it very much appears that this is a clear-cut case of arson.
So it wasn't fireworks. It was a calculated and deliberate attempt at the mass murder of men, women and children.

Every once in a while I think about the time I was trying to tell three male coworkers about a study that had shown that men think their female coworkers talk more & interrupt more, even though, in fact, men talk & interrupt more, but I could never finish telling them, b/c they kept interrupting me.

Take nothing for granted, make sure to get out and vote Connolly tomorrow.
This presidential election has the potential to bring about a major shift in Irish politics, with a united left providing a real alternative to over a century of tweedledum tweedledee FF/FG.
