No tent to protect her,no blanket to warm her tiny body.
She sleeps on the wet ground, without warm clothes, without food, without safety
Your support could be the difference between staying and leaving.

The Irish Nazi Party used to be run by a fella who lived with his mum in a cottage in Ringsend. In those days, no one said you lived in an "echo chamber" if you didn't go around to listen to him.
"Bluesky is an echo chamber."
"Bluesky doesn't have enough reach"
"Liberals must return to X to challenge the far right"
I'm not a tech bro or a journalist. Your priorities are not my priorities. Stop telling me I need to do anything other than chat about comics & telly with people who seem nice.

25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

Coffee thoughts:
Ireland is a polity where you can go and visit a Minister in a constituency office on a weekend to ask for help filling in a form.
The distance to/from officeholders is effectively zero.
But the distance for most people from *power* can be (invisible to them) huge.

#Foxhunting with hounds and horses was invented in England in the 16 century. It was imported to #Ireland during colonial time. It is NOT an Irish tradition. Contact your TDs today and tell them to vote for a ban on Dec 17th. See sample letter and details in our bio.

"Nonce goggles"
In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

Google’s latest update has led to blocking Palestinian phone numbers, especially those from Gaza.
This is serious because it means:
No ability to create new Gmail accounts. Difficulty recovering old accounts. Losing access to essential services linked to Gmail.
