Thread worth your time. I promise.
The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

Universities hope that by offering honorary degrees to prominent people, they will generate lots of publicity for their institutions, akin to free advertising

I can only read the first para because I don't have an Irish Times subscription but it is safe to say that Olwen Fouéré is not only a huge Irish talent but also a great and courageous person.

Did you advise him on the reset policy and declaring there was "no military solution" in 2014?
When I worked for Obama, I advised him on how to talk to Russian leaders. I never gave the Kremlin advice on how to talk to Obama (and I talked to Ushakov many times!).

If you live in Ireland, remember that in recent memory a single rugby-loving bank CEO cost the taxpayer more than every single welfare recipient in the state COMBINED. #SpeirGorm
I would rather 50 people got benefits they didn't need than 1 went without food or shelter.
Hot take maybe but I actually don’t give a shit about benefit fraud.

I give a shit about multimillionaires and billionaires existing and not paying tax on their actual wealth.

Controversial punk-rap duo Bob Vylan paid a visit to Leinster House today for a tour of the parliament building and a meeting with pro-Palestinian TDs and Senators.

They were invited to visit Dáil Éireann by Sinn Féin TD Eoin Ó Broin ahead of their Vicar Street gig.

This is the tragedy of a world where the existence of trans people and their right to be left alone is constantly under threat by the worst people.
A trans teen in Iowa completed suicide after severe bullying by classmates and teachers.

"Miles’ death came a day after a substitute teacher refused to use his preferred pronouns."

It's the type of bullying @thefireorg.bsky.social and @aricohn.com support.

I can imagine with such terrible parents, those kids will hopefully distance themselves - though the Burke’s are quite the example of parental indoctrination the other way.

The E3 (UK, France, Germany) counter-proposal for a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine is vastly superior to the US sell-out.

It has a strong focus on Ukraine’s sovereignty, EU membership, security guarantees & reparations, and no surrender of free Ukrainian territory to Russian occupation.
