Yesterday, the CSO announced that a record number of households are in arrears over electricity bills. Today, we learn the CEO of state owned ESB has a pay rise to €410k. Such blatant unfairness is a result of EU deregulation of the energy sector in the 90s.

Eewww seeing actual footage of an irish lefty feminist online pal right there in the church is nauseating and disappointing

I despise Substack and have previously said I will never read it (and I don't). But I will break my rule just for this eally disturbing piece of writing by Neko Case, who was / is in a band, The New Pornographers, who were supported by The Frames in 2002. nekocase.substack.com/p/in-what-fu...

And just because you never heard it before it doesnt mean it didn't happen.. it has been known and talked about for decades

I know one person. Rose knows at least one person. Another friend knows one person. That's already way too many people. My friend was pre mobile phone so her experience is different to Rose's friends but the core is the same. If you didn't know before now that's ok. Not everyone hears stuff.

Fuck it. I am sick to the back teeth of people today saying they never heard Glen Hansard was a groomer so therefore those of us who did hear it shouldn't talk about it. He groomed teenage girls. He was well known for it in certain circles. He would give out burner phones for them to text him from.

This should be bigger news. Too many will end up dead before anything is done about the right wing scum share.google/H69zQkNtHSZu...

Relevant to last night's news and my consistent badgering of everyone here to join a political party or to run for election. You too could be one vote away from helping to change this country for the better. #Spéirgorm

The family of the Belfast stabbing victim have released a statement saying - like the family of Henry Nowak last week - that the attack should not be used to "divide people or fuel hostility" They condemned disorder and praised the "valuable contribution" by migrants inews.co.uk/news/politic...

Heard about two stabbings today. The one in Belfast breathlessly given wall to wall media coverage, and another briefly covered where a guy was convicted for murdering his wife and setting the house alight. I note both perpetrators have SOMETHING in common. And it isn’t their immigration status.

How amazing is this ? She did it for the concert last year vm.tiktok.com/ZNRvD4tbt/

Who needs a man? Not this woman. I may be a youthworker but I am proud of my construction job. Not finished obviously but very pleased with myself. Body hurts though

Wow as so many people are seeing this please follow my Daughter's creative accounts. www.tiktok.com/@caryscreate... www.instagram.com/caryscreate?...

My car isnt worth this much so sounds great in theory but I simply couldn't afford the other €25+ k .

Ireland to offer €8.5k to drivers to scrap petrol or diesel cars “motorists who permanently scrap a vehicle more than 13 years old will qualify for a €5,000 scrappage allowance. This can be combined with the existing €3,500 EV purchase grant, bringing total support available to €8,500”

You know what we don't talk enough about? Queen & Annie Lennox/David Bowie rehearsing 'Under Pressure' in 1992. So much going on! Everyone's clothes, Bowie with a lit cig throughout, where Annie PROPER GOES FOR IT, George Michael singing along in the background. The amazing vocals. Yes, please!

Cheered up the front of my house. New build white and grey is so boring

Hazel the vixen has visited mum every day for 3 years (for a chicken leg and an egg) today she brought her baby

The fact that a neo-Nazi teenager who attempted to behead a Kurdish barber in Bristol last year has just been sentenced to almost 20 years in prison isn’t *national* news is enormously telling. It’s really not just a South West story, is it?

Would be good if performers, musicians, writers, and other creative workers insisted on organisers not using genAI for advertising festivals, shows and events they're taking part in, in solidarity with visual artists, because it's absolutely everywhere at the moment. We need to stick together!

This is shocking blatant antisemitism
