Sure, we have weekly far-right terror attacks being planned and actively happening, but has anyone considered that 11 years ago Paul Murphy sat in front of a car for two hours.

Really REALLY important that everyone who enjoys #SpéirGhorm goes through these settings and toggles the switch to enable 'rude' posts. Tis a rare one of us who doesn't have a colourful tongue.
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.

I guess Irish democracy is only in crisis when a socialist wins the largest ever public mandate. Not when the current govt tries to ram through war machine policies without a public vote.
Tánaiste Simon Harris has said that he does not believe a referendum is necessary to change the Triple Lock.

I've gotten good responses back, I'd encourage others to try this or something similar!
I've taken Rob's advice and emailed a couple of local reps. I know it can feel sort-of low effort at times, but considering what's going on and what we're up against, I feel it's worth pushing back at every avenue and fighting for every inch. Feel free to click on ALT to copy and use my template:

A moment that has stayed with me: after the result was announced as gaeilge, and cheered to the rafters by Connolly supporters, the returning officer began "and in English...", eliciting a hearty guffaw, and for a brief moment it was as if anything said in that language was an irrelevant formality

This was unique circumstances for spoiled vote: no anti-gov candidate anywhere on the right, loud online campaign, week of riots. It’s still going to end up with less than half the vote Peter Casey got as a similar protest. The “political earthquake” here is the thumping victory for the united left

So if the spoiled vote is between 12-13% and with the right wing / St Maria of the holy handbag crowd claiming this vote - Catherine Connolly still wins the election with a commanding win, on or over 60% #speirgorm #aras25

Don’t flake on voting just because the result is in the bag! Margin matters. Remember how awful it felt seeing Peter Casey jump from 2% polls to 23% after his attacks on travellers. A low turnout/high number of spoiled votes will be seized on by the fash. Every vote for Connolly undermines them
