Honey, you don't know the difference between the country of Ireland and the island of Ireland.

You can't claim the victories of others.

You're obviously the exception

That's how I feel. I fear for the NI education system

Otd in 2012 Savita Halappanavar died after being refused a life-saving abortion in Ireland.
Her death led to huge demonstrations and helped put Ireland on the road to legalisation of abortion in a referendum in 2018. This is the story of that movement:

The name of the country is Ireland. The island is Ireland. They are not the same thing.

Banana @annastg.bsky.social · 7d

Because the name of the country is Ireland, as per the constitution.

Banana @annastg.bsky.social · 8d

Because that part of Ireland isn't under the governance of Ireland, so don't get to decide on a president and government that has no authority where they live.

Israel is a case in point.

As bored teenagers, we spent an entire summer coming up with our best banana sandwich recipe. The winner was a banana and Nutella sandwich dunked in egg way and fried, like French toast. Banana and chocolate are always a winner 🏆

One of my favourite Calvin and Hobbes strips, by the incomparable Bill Watterson. 3-panels:

1: Hobbes, hands on knees: Why are you digging a hole?
Calvin, dirty, neck keep in a hole, safari hat, holding a shovel: I'm looking for buried treasure!

2: Hobbes, leaning over on hands and knees: What have you found?
Calvin, examining the results of his work: A few dirty rocks, a weird root, and some disgusting grubs.

3: Hobbes, sitting back, inspecting the finds: On your first try??
Calvin, waving arms: There's treasure everywhere!
