There are russian airplanes over Kramatorsk right now dropping 40 glide bombs every day. Today they killed 33 innocent people. These are huge weapons never designed for civilian areas. Ukraine needs air defense to shoot down those planes & save thousands of innocent lives.

Lookit. Deep down every Irish person wants to spin some yank a yarn that gets cited as fact in some factual text.

We told an Irish American girl that when the Muppets was released in Ireland, Kermit the Frog was called Dermot the Frog because Cromwell’s son was a Kermit.

This is true. In 2016, I got into an argument with a gay man on a menswear forum. I've since made it my mission to make every man dress gay, thereby destroying his ability to tell who is actually gay and, ultimately, his chances of finding love. I built my social media following to achieve that goal

Just to be clear, all 3 of these full-time bigots are in breach of the Parades Commission determination, which excludes anyone not part of the Orange Order District to assemble with the marchers.

It remains insane to me that we're watching the PSNI and Parades Commission entertain the prospect of sending riot police in because they refuse to admit they fucked up
It also looks like the Parades Commission prioritised the PSNI stating they had no *evidence* violence or damage was likely over representations made that there was *potential* for serious disorder.
These are 2 completely different things and the Parades Commission has ineptly picked the wrong one.

SA went 25 points down. Australia go 3 men down. SA get to -11. Then the Aussies intercept and score under the posts with 5 to go.

What a match

An illegal protest is now gathering where you live because bigots are about to march triumphantly and loudly down your streets.

"I don't think any elected politician should be supporting an illegal protest"

Chris Bryant (the secretary of state for Northern Ireland) says Michelle O'Neill (the first minister of Northern Ireland) is wrong to stand with people defending their community.

NEW BRIGHT SPOTS: "Just build more solar and batteries" I see this comment many times in my social media feed.

The problem: The slogan undersells the problem. It also undersells the solution.

The good news: we already have most of the tools we need.

The DUP and SF have been in a staring contest over who will collapse stormont first and I don't see how that won't happen when a load of people get battered off the road by the PSNI so 35 pricks, who've been using an alternative route for 28 years, can march down a road full of taigs.

American CEO: “We can’t control it!”

American CEO 2: “It will destroy us all!”

American CEO 3: “The apocalypse!”

French CEO [hitting a Gauloise, exhaling slowly]: “C’est une issue de skill.”
“The CEO of Mistral AI believes American tech giants are using [AI-apocalypse] rhetoric to control and close off the market to their advantage.”

lol, I rest my case.
