I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing
This was a joy to work on. From Tennessee to Tallaght - looking at the remarkable legacy of Dolly Parton.. 5,000 kids in Tallaght get books sent to them every month because of Dolly Parton's Imagination Library 📚
"It's given a lot of people permission to be themselves, to not dream it, be it, which is the motto of the movie, really. I would like to be remembered for that." Farewell to Tim Curry (1946-2026) #RIP
Jesus Tim Curry has passed!! First Dolly now Tim. 2026 has seen alot of greats pass.
Inject that Enzo Fernandez red card directly into my veins
What the absolute fuck was that crap! Please don't make halftime shows a thing.
Look on the bright side, England, it's only 3.5 prime ministers until the next world cup!
cabo verde held both world cup finalists to a draw across 90 minutes and almost took argentina to penalties, easily the best performance anyone has put up against either team all world cup
It's weird having nerves hoping a team will loose #worldcup26

Just wanna double check. We are all on the "hope Argentina lose" side since Cape Verde, ya?
Those of us who were invited to give expert evidence to the committee Expertise drawn from across the globe, & from jurisdictions that have decriminalised Were consistent in our evidence-based position Decrim doesn't increase drug misuse Criminalisation is a source of harm
The Report usefully contrasts the positioning of the State versus expertise on the question of decriminalisation State reps who spoke to the Committee – including from An Garda Síochána & Dept of Justice – were broadly against any change to the law Yet produced little evidence
The Joint Oireachtas Report has many other important recommendations I hope these are not ignored in the discussion today and going forward
Gov has been told three times By the Citizens' Assembly, and two Joint Oireachtas Committees That the evidence is clear that decriminalisation is necessary to achieve better outcomes for people who use drugs That criminalisation has failed Section 3 must now be repealed
I welcome the final recommendations of the Joint Committee on Drug Use The Gov tasked it with determining how to implement the Citizens' Assembly's recommendations, which called for decriminalisation Repealing section 3 of the Misuse of Drugs Act is the only way to achieve that
An Oireachtas committee has recommended the decriminalisation of possession of all drugs for personal use.
