You have to survive. There are graves to piss on that haven't been dug yet.

There's over 150,000 empty houses across the country.
Easy to blame people seeking asylum to avoid the fact that FF have been in government, more or less, for the entire history of the state

also not to be dramatic or sound like a hypochondriac but I realised this evening that my dry, itchy elbows that have been getting worse and worse with all the moisturiser I've been using for weeks... Might be psoriasis....

car's haunted.

Rebecca @saverickandroll.bsky.social · 22h

My mechanic has been looking into the car today and can't replicate the clutch issue (makes sense since it only ever happened to me in heavy traffic) but worse, when he tried to turn off the engine, it.. doesnt stop

Had a breakdown in the traffic on the N7 last night and was stuck on the hard shoulder for 3 hours waiting for a recovery truck to get to us so here are the highlights/lows of that time

can’t tell if my antidepressants aren’t working or if they just weren’t built for this. like, zoloft was introduced in the 90s it barely needed to work then. if you got sad you could just buy a house.

A real leader with courage & backbone and would have been out on the plinth at Dáil Eireann at 1000 this morning saying that this has gone too far and has to stop.
They would have called out the tech giants & the liars who use their platforms to spread hate.
Ireland clearly has no such leaders.

Every minute without a strong statement from the Irish government about the arson and attempted murder in Drogheda is another minute of silent acquiescence to the far right - by remaining silent, the govt is making it very clear which side they are on.
Everyone who is here, belongs here.

Wow the IT actually printed my letter

#speirghorm

A chara, - In January 1989, the British Minister Douglas Hogg stated that some solicitors were “unduly sympathetic to the cause of the IRA”. Three weeks later Pat Finucane was murdered by loyalists. It is widely accepted in Ireland that there was a consequential link between these two events.

Will there be a similar recognition of the responsibility political leaders bear for inciting violence in the wake of the horrific arson attack on a centre for international protection applicants in Drogheda on Hallowen night, only days after the Tánaiste described migration numbers as “too high”? - Is mise

Simon Harris is a coward and a bully who would rather scapegoat innocent communities of vulnerable people rather than face up to the failures of either his government or himself as a leader, a Cabinet minister and a human being. Couldn't think less of him and have no problem saying it.

Following banter

Rebecca @saverickandroll.bsky.social · 3d

Oh yeah sorry main highlight was the banter I had with the recovery guy

Whatsapp where recovery driver had sent a photo of the traffic he was in, to which I replied with a photo of my hand outstretched in the direction he was coming from. I then replied again saying the hypothermia is kicking in.

The fella who tried to come up the hard shoulder, undertaking all the traffic, then got stuck as no one would let him back into the lane, then as he got to us rolled down his windows to shout at us for being in his way (??) and then couldn't understand why I was sweating at him in response

LOWS: the multiple men who pulled in next to us but only pulled in to take a piss in the bushes nearby and then got back in the cars and drove off

The guy who helped us push the car out of the middle lane and the other guy who pulled in later to try get us going again

So it wasn't fireworks. It was a calculated and deliberate attempt at the mass murder of men, women and children.

Every far-right riot and protest that was tolerated, every racist dog whistle from public reps, every bit of hate and misinformation allowed to spread by social media companies, all led to this moment in Drogheda last night where someone felt emboldened enough to try to burn children alive.
