From the people whose lobbying brought you Patrick O’Donovan’s recent unlawful age verification plans.
When the self-proclaimed champions of free speech become drivers of censorship. This is the real #cancelculture on women, queer people, people of colour, workers and human rights activists.
That’s why @socialistsanddemocrats.eu call for an inquiry committee on #BigTech in the European Parliament.

‘consider not giving presents this holiday season’ 💀
British Library staff asked for a decent pay. Instead they got ‘a few money-saving present ideas’, such as ‘consider not giving presents this holiday season’. They are on strike this week. I wrote about it for @lrb.co.uk. www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2025/de...

A temperature inversion near Linwood, ON (Dec. 8).
The air below the ice crystals was -20C (according to my car). As we drove up a hill through the crystal cloud, the air was -10C. It made for a beautiful #landscape, with trees covered in ice crystals!

International corporations can now sue the state(us) if our hard fought rights affects their profits. Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil, as per usual, fucking us while sharing insane videos of how we can deal with moving back in with our parents because they've being fucking us over for decades.
Scandalously at 1am, the government has just pushed through a law with far reaching ramifications.
It allows them to sign up to a parallel court process only accessible by corporations. There they can sue Ireland if we do anything to interfere with their "right" to profit.

These two stories are somehow connected. Apparently, if you lobby tirelessly for more pollution & ecological wreckage, that’s exactly what you get.

Remember @judesherry.bsky.social & I found over 700 empty properties within 2km of Cork city centre, many could have quickly been turned back into homes
While State is paying up to €180,000 a year for every family in emergency accommodation
So who is benefiting?

I'm sickened that the government voted CETA through at 1am last night. It's an anti-people, pro-corporation deal that allows Canadian investment companies to sue us, the Irish people. So a Canadian company can buy up housing & sue the Irish state if we introduce rent controls. #Speirgorm #Speirgorm

Patrick O’Donovan went out on the national airwaves with a half-baked, bad set of ideas about linking access to online spaces to our PPS numbers.
If he had these ideas himself, it would be a Christmas miracle.
But in fact, they are the Zuckerberg lobbying aim across the world.
