How many more children have to be killed, mutilated, made orphans, infected with preventivable diseases?
The least that we can do is to cut off trade with the perpetrators and sanction them

We need to introduce some form of hazing ritual for any politicians who use "lessons will be learned" from here on out.

Humiliating shit to be saying, they want us to learn lessons from something so many of us easily predicted before it happened.

This is where we are: losing unique, talented voices to long COVID. Nobody has considered the chilling effect on artists, performers, athletes.

Nobody is considering anything except what feels superficially good in the moment.

Apple does nothing for the location in Cork that it is in. It has a sushi restaurant but the local area is one of the most disadvantaged in Cork.
I grew up very close to it & I have never owned any Apple tech - their disregard for Knocknaheeney & Hollyhill is obvs & these threats just more evidence

A woman says "it's weird how 9/11 became a national holiday." Another woman, distraught says "OH NO! That means..." We seek Jack Skellington from Night Before Christmas approaching a door that looks like the twin towers. He emerges from an airplane bathroom in front of a bunch of nervous looking passengers and says "what's this?" We see the plane he's on about to go into the first tower. He says "what's this?"

Scholasticide: Israel’s deliberate and systematic destruction of the Palestinian education system in Gaza

As millions of students worldwide start a new academic year, over 600,000 Palestinian school and university students in Gaza face another year of lost education due to Israel's ongoing genocide.

I mean, give it a few years... or less...

(Ireland even more so, obviously)

Everywhere is a shithole!!!! 🥲🫠

The "Spider Man Pointing Meme" (Spiderman in an alleyway pointing at a spiderman lookalike who's pointing back at him), with the Irish flag superimposed on the spiderman on the left and the Swedish flag superimposed on the spiderman on the right

I hate my government

The nicest thing about this place is how ppl learned from their time on twitter (some of us anyway). Blocking & quote dunks aren’t wanted or needed here. Cut all the bad actors off at their feet and don’t ever let anyone tell you’re wrong for doing it b/c it’s usually antagonistic chuds that hate it

Wouldn't it be hilarious if they just gave the money back to Apple

Well Tim Cook can go fuck himself

They'll probably put it straight into the rainy day fund, which already has millions of euro sitting in it that's never going to be used

Actually using money to finance public infrastructure isn't the blueshirt way, so they'll just hoard it like dragons as per usual

Did a Goron write this

I have my pronouns in my work signature and my colleagues ignore them 🙃

Or, to put it another way, " ... voted to leave the European Union, endangering the physical safety and livelihoods of all in Northern Ireland by destabilising a hard-won peace agreement brokered after long, brutal years of violence, profound social and personal trauma, and tragic deaths."

Damnit, there is now so much no alt text. Bluesky desperately needs a way to toggle it so you can't *repost* a post with no alt text either.

I keep accidentally reposting and a millisecond later realizing that *wasn't* an alt text button in the corner, then unreposting

Trying to spin AI criticism as ableist makes me want to shit bricks at them like I am an x-man who shoots hyper speed bricks out of my ass

Bro, do you even read theory? Oh you do? Oh thank god, please explain it to me. 😭

They should invent a version of Paris that isn't humid

(My shirt is soaked all the way through at the airport)

A glass and a teacup filled with brown water.

This is the tap water that our wonderful government and their pals at UE have expected the plebs on the north side of Cork city to give to our kids to drink, to cook with, and to wash our clothes in for the last several years. And it's by no means the worst example.

Meme in the format of "stop doing math" Stop Doing Borders - Freedom of Movement was not meant to be restricted - Years of drawing lines on maps yet no benefit found for excluding people based on what lines they live within - Want to draw lines anyway for a laugh? We have a tool for that: It's called "worldbuilding" - "Yes please suspend human rights near the lines. Please make it illegal to cross the lines without certain papers" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Authoritarian Look at what States have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the maps & walls we've made for them (These are Real Borders, enforced by Real States) Three images of: a Dutch enclave inside the Netherlands, a border wall on the Mexico-USA border, and a world political map. Under each are several red question marks "Hello may I see your <image of a British passport> please?" They have played us for absolute fools

It’s funny. I used to say to friends that I knew Sinn Fein would disappoint me eventually but I at least wanted to give them the opportunity to do so in power. Turns out they could completely turn me against them without ever being elected!
