Far right protesters can walk into libraries to threaten people with a police escort and block roads asking brown skinned people for ID while the Gardai look on. The same Gardai will happily put a dozen leftie students in A+E for a week during an eviction protest. I hope this helps your analysis

I feel it's important to share this again. The internet is so hostile toward creators nowadays. I've seen people have their work stolen, and no longer feel comfortable sharing their creations. We can do better. Let's be supportive to the people that make this a better place! 💞

I don't know that there is a template or a "secret sauce" or a clear-cut lesson to take from this. But if there is one it's the idea of treating social media as the hostile territory that it is, of actually acting like you are a participant in propaganda warfare and not like a consumer.

The mobilization itself was already not something I ever expected to see, but to actually win? Hell, to double the winning margin from the 2022 runoff? Genuinely surreal. Maybe child raping billionaires *don't* have to run the world with a shit-eating grin. Maybe that can stop.

I just don't have the spoons to ring my TDs but I've emailed all five of my TDs as well as emailing the Taoiseach & Tánaiste and big Jim himself to highlight that Jim O'Callaghan is simply unsuitable to hold the brief of Justice Minister and should not be blocking ads for safeguarding children...

I’ve slept on it now and when I woke up, I was still still mad about it. This morning, I’m going to ring the constituent office of my local FF TD and tell him just how mad it made me. Then I’m going to call the constituency office of my local SF TD, and ask if Matt Carthy’s support is their view.

GM Tip: Want your players to hate the villain? Have her impose annoying inconveniences on the party. For example, if the villain is a corrupt city ruler. Have her soldiers impose a tax on the party, or search their possessions and seize an object of moderate value. #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #ttrpgCommunity

No, I’m still mad about this consent business. I don’t think it is enough just to say it.

This report contains plenty of quotes to help your local TDs know that (a) pandering to bots costs real life votes and: (b) will make you just so mad a second time if you read it. www.rte.ie/news/2026/10...

It's also very frustrating to constantly have my opposition to AI be taken as an opposition to abstraction, or to automation, and a desire to do every little thing by hand. But it's the opposite. For a whole bunch of reasons, AI anti-abstracts. It adversarially creates oceans of duplication to […]

I genuinely don't know? But recently I am lowkey obsessed with Charleine Harris' Skokie Stackhouse? While the True Blood series made her a moron, in the books she's an uneducated (formally) but clever, ambitious and bright young woman with incredible levels of integrity, and that difference is [...]
