Fucking cowards. It’s bad enough they’re liars, incompetent and bone idle, but the absolute fucking cowardice of that lot. Aren’t public representatives supposed to represent the public? Away t’fuck to an Ed Sheeran concert you useless cunts.

Wow. Ireland are getting played off the park here. Kosovo very well organised. Ireland aren’t helping themselves with wayward passing and the lack of movement. We’re not coming away from here with a win. #KOSIRL #nationsleague #spéirgorm

This is a great idea. It’s shite that it’s needed but as long as there are victims in crime, they should always be prioritised.

My opinion of the lad was pretty low before this whole affair began and yet he’s managing to plunge to new depths. He’s not just complicit, he’s a colluder.
Pop Base@popbase.tv · 2w agoEd Sheeran has released a statement on Macklemore being removed from his tour for speaking up for Palestine: “I am not complicit. […] Just because I choose not to speak publicly, it doesn't mean I don't have [my own opinions], and it doesn't mean I don't care.”
I don’t get it. Episode 1 was enough for me to switch off. The protagonist was really whiny and annoying. I also didn’t find it funny.

Ed Sheeran… MOR centrist with less edge than unset jelly confirms his sell-out cred. I hope he’s reminded of that next time he tries to Oirish up his god-awful, offensively inoffensive act. To be Irish, Ed, you’ve to understand the plight of Palestinian people. Not throw your peers under the bus
Donald Trump couldn’t give a shite about a United Ireland. I can almost guarantee he’s never given it a second thought. What he is thinking about are the upcoming midterms and the Irish American vote. #spéirgorm
I’ve always had a soft spot for the RNLI. They do the kind of work people can’t be paid enough for, but most of them do it voluntarily. And now my admiration for them increases.

Not in, but beside the blue badge space. No blue badge. Selfish cunt. I’ve raised the issue with this Lidl store several times (my wife is a blue badge user). They’ve done absolutely nothing, so a shaming on the internet it’ll have to be @yplac.bsky.social #spéirgorm

Woof. Fairly intense rain & lightning here in Co. Monaghan (expect it’ll mean my internet will crap out for 3rd time in 4 days). When will councils realise speed bumps, aside from not being a disincentive for people actually speeding & being bad for the environment, also cause localised flooding?
At what point do we just call him what he is: a creep lurking around some kids?

As long as I can remember, Richmond Road has not been fit for purpose as a driver or pedestrian (went to school on Gracepark Road and later walked every day from Harts Corner to Fairview just to get my bus to college, often carrying an A0 portfolio case, so I know!)

The smell of fucking muck spreading permeating through my house right now is absolutely nauseating. I couldn’t open a window even if I wanted to. It’s one side of rural living this jackeen can’t & won’t ever get used to, not that I do live in the country here in Castleblayney’s buzzing metropolis
