Oh Windows is going to be BAD bad, I see

#BREAKING: Microsoft offers voluntary exit packages to 60,000 staff

Seriously @rtenews! Racist Gavin Pepper was the only ‘local representative’ you could find for comment on the tragic murder in Finglas?

That company isn't the first to misuse their Irish name or address, or the fact they sell some Irish, to mislead the consumer. And supermarkets are quite pleased about that. Consumers of honey need to know they're mostly conned. Way more honey sold each year across the World than bees can make.

A Cork man who went missing 34 years ago was located deceased in the UK this month - and LGBTQ+ campaigners say he was just one of a whole generation who fled Ireland’s anti-gay laws and repressive society in the late 20th century. www.thejournal.ie/patsy-osulli...

Facing delays renewing his residence permit, a hospital doctor is stuck unable to work. "His inability to work will have a direct impact on the provision of the medical services and our ability to maintain adequate staffing and patient care,” a letter from the Rotunda says.

There is blatant voter suppression happening right now in Brazil: flights cancelled and buses suspended to Northeastern capitals where Lula holds the majority, polling stations changed to thousands of kms away last-minute, voters in London told they need to go to Edinburgh… This is criminal.

How hard is it to get Irish honey in supermarkets?

"...if it were the case that he decided to give credence and support to a far-right fringe issue in order to cause trouble to a charity he felt had not supported him, it would represent petty-minded narcissism of a Trumpian order."

"Astrophysics student Samuel Carlier and History student Emmeline Hague-Wright were shocked to find that their LGBTQ+ pride pins had been edited out of their University Challenge appearance earlier this year." And Jerk KR was gifted a documentary...says it all.

Making Americans stupider by the day. God love teachers in the US. "US President Donald Trump has said that Google CEO Sundar Pichai turned down his request to rename the Atlantic Ocean the "American Ocean"." www.rte.ie/news/us/2026...

Isabel Hayes: Why Jim O’Callaghan is dangerously wrong about the important message at heart of consent advert. www.independent.ie/comment/opin...

The Justice Minister interfering with the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre consent campaign "because it does not represent the views of the Government" is unsettling. Interference like this risks creating a chilling effect and self-censorship within wider civil society. www.iccl.ie/news/justice...

"The organisation behind the “independent” investigation into the late Jason Arday’s Cambridge appointment is backed by billionaire Reform UK megadonor Ben Delo, who also finances a Westminster political hub that has hosted Aporia, a platform promoting anti-black race science."

Before this week, I would’ve struggled to name the single most vile politician in America aside from Trump. Not anymore. Vivek Ramaswamy made that choice very easy. Every time he opens his mouth, he proves there’s no bottom he won’t scrape. At this point, “vile” isn’t an insult. It’s his brand.

Update on Kirk Loco's trial which began today. He's due back in court on Thursday, 26th October to give his evidence. Let's hope for another bigot to be off to Mountjoy this year 🤞 www.thejournal.ie/social-media...

The day he takes a physical swing at a female reporter is getting closer & closer.

RIP Donal Lunny & thanks for all those great nights in the Baggot Inn long 'go... youtu.be/mYF4mo1Ze7I?...

Maybe Arnotts shouldn't employee security guards to beat shoplifters to death? Totally lowers the tone of the area tbh.

With the attention focused on Trump’s nastiness to journos in the Oval Office yesterday, the contribution of the elf in the corner has been overlooked. Miller’s poisonous diatribe about Somalis was unhinged (& further evidence that he is the source of much of Trump’s rhetoric).

I showed my 12-year-old son the video. And asked him: Is there anything wrong with that? No. Are the grandparents bad people in it? Also no.

"He was then arrested by officers from the Garda National Immigration Bureau this afternoon." #Ireland #SpéirGhorm

A punch in the face is non-sexual, so you don't need consent.

wonder how much we have learned as a country. I'm so angry, the sense of entitlement of people to think they have the right to override the autonomy of a child, it's all about the adults needs. It's infuriating.

If a kid doesn't want your hug right now, it's not an accusation of sexual abuse, FFS! They might not have seen you for a while & be feeling shy. They could be tired, sick, grumpy, whatever. They might be going through a phase of thinking they're "too big" for hugs.

Consent is not about sex. Consent is about your body belonging to you & other people not having a right to touch you when you don't want to be touched. End of story!

I am a grandparent (step-grandparent, if you're all about the blood) in a fairly complicated family, who only gets to see kiddo fairly infrequently. Sometimes they want to hug & sometimes they don't & that's 100% up to them. Hugs are absolutely the right place to start consent education!

This is Dublin Rape Crisis Centre's donations page. Now would be a really good time to show your support for all their work - including education on consent. www.drcc.ie/donate/

Assuming he means the US variety & so ffs Bono! 🤢🤢🤢.

Not enough people have processed this yet

NEWS: A federal judge has ordered Trump to testify UNDER OATH by December 11 in his own $10 BILLION defamation lawsuit against the BBC—or face sanctions, including possible dismissal of the case.

This only comes to public knowledge because Claire Molloy called it out. What other 'mistakes' have gone un-noticed?

Ms Molloy has lodged a complaint with RTÉ and Coimisiún na Meán that “this selective editing compromises the broadcaster’s obligation to fairness and impartiality”.
