critfailmemes on threads (!) "Okay so to keep the poor from rioting you give them bread and circuses" "Got it. However some of them were sneaking into the circus on their friend's login so we stopped that" "No you... you gotta give them the circuses" "We're ending the free bread program, too much of it was going to the poor"

The main outcome of the ceasefire seems to be a permanent excuse for all future inaction

Meme of astronaut pointing gun at another astronaut

This meme implies astronauts are constantly shooting each other in space to cover up a horrific secret. In fact that has only happened 4 times in NASA’s entire history

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me this man is my enemy

"6-7"?! Boy I say boy you gen alpha kids cant be doin' that! Your signifiers need signs boy! You've laid a rhetorical claim to an empty space son! You're creatin' a nihilistic dialectic! Your broccoli hairs obfuscatin' some much needed communication! Find some MEANIN', kid!

If it's yer man AnyAustin it's weirdly compelling. I loved his one about hydrology in the Witcher 3

This has pretty much always been true in any city ever. Public perception of crime has no correlation with actual crime rates, we are living in one of the safest periods in human history but you wouldn't know it from social media or even talking to people irl

Hello it's me the leader of the party full of landlords that has been in power your whole adult life and created the housing crisis we now refuse to resolve.

I'm here to tell you it's actually the foreigners' fault.

If I was Diego Luna, I'd have that second one framed in my living room

Leaving aside the conflict of interest thing, surely Yates is unemployable after this because he’s just obviously terrible at his job?

Fine Gael's "let's have a debate on immigration" dog whistling badly exposed here. The FG fella keeps insisting on a debate, & when Paul says ok, he pivots to asking for "a mature debate on immigration"

They can't let the debate actually happen cause it'll expose them as vey wrong & very racist

Digital Artist: In my work I invented the Gowl Detector as a cautionary tale

Tech Company: At long last, we have created the Gowl Detector from classic art installation Don't Create The Gowl Detector

'Member all the Irish wankers bemoaning "political violence" when Charlie Kirk was murdered - has anyone seen if they have anything to say about the attempted murder of women and children in the Drogheda IPAS centre?
No?
Funny, that.

Reminds me about how all the "RETVRN" nazi accounts on twitter turn out to be run by Pakistani guys. There's a gold in them hills (american racists)

I love their films but A24 is simply an impractically small paper size

Jim saying it was fireworks this morning before it was definite what started the fire (flammable substance deliberately put on stairs & set alight) is illustrative of so much. Rush to minimise without facts. In the absence of them, wait. It’s as bad as it looked. So much worse than fireworks

Ivan Yates has hit a second presidential campaign

It pains me to have to talk about this again but presenting this as an "elephant in the room" is bizarre. The spoiled votes have got as much coverage and media attention as the actual winner, and it's baffling this is still being discussed let alone claimed as underanalysed

Setting fire to a building when people, children, are inside should be investigated like it's an attempted murder because that's what it fucking is.

Radicalised people burned out an IPAS centre last night. We don't even have the comfort of pretending the rhetoric that radicalised them came exclusively from powerless far-right trolls. It has been echoed by our Taoiseach, our Tánaiste, and our Minister for Justice. #spéirgorm

Wed: “Our migration numbers are too high”-Simon Harris

Thurs: “Taoiseach and Donohoe back Tánaiste’s remarks that numbers migrating to Ireland are ‘too high’”

Fri: ”migration numbers too high outside of international protection…as well”-Simon Harris

*Arson attack on infants in IPAS centre.*

Surrealing in the Years: Sorry Simon, maybe Ireland doesn't want to be a 'centrist' country Hey, I didn’t make the rules.

“If this was, as Harris framed it, a referendum on Ireland’s proud history of better-things-aren’t-possible centrism, then surely he must accept that his conceptualisation of Ireland is actually… wrong.”

This week’s column is about how FG and FF have responded to the election results.

Happy Halloweeen :)

Even if we assume that 100% of the spoiled votes represent far right views (absurd) there's still been a hugely disproportionate amount of coverage and analysis compares to what Connolly's landslide represents.

Micheàl needing to out racist the racists to save his own skin - looking over his shoulder at a potential leadership challenge from Mr Deportation, Jim O’Callaghan. FF moving further right ‘cause Micheàl messed up an election #speirgorm

HELLO SIDNEY. DO U CONDEMN THE ACTIONS OF HAMAS

They're definitely popular with the people with the people who are very into warhammer for the wrong reasons. I think official art is leaning away from that

I have some of those models because they came with one of the box sets for Kill Team, deliberately painted them with bright blue coats so they looked more like WW1 French soldiers
