I can’t tell you how far from my experience of Bluesky the sentiment “there are two religions here, weed and ass” is

if ONLY that’s what Bluesky was, are you kidding me. there is one religion here and it’s called ‘replying earnestly’

went looking through the 1926 census for my grandparents and instead found a picture of myself in a hotel ballroom, attending some kind of celebration with dozens of others? it says I was the hotel’s caretaker? has this happened to anyone else.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

Surrealing in the Years: At least Fianna Fáil will be okay, and that's what really matters Crisis averted!

“Only in Micheál Martin’s mind is this unashamed unpreparedness an excuse, rather than its own failing. Not only a failing, but perhaps the failing that precipitates all others.”

This week’s column.

It’s super funny to me that Who’s Gonna Drive You Home is by The Cars. It’s like if The Beatles had a song called Who’s Gonna Scurry Out When You Lift That Big Stone

Micheál Martin... can count himself fortunate that neither his party, nor the country at large, feels as though they have anyone or anything else to rally behind. "

A great article. Insightful & inciteful.

Very witty too.

Mehole keeps showing us he doesn't know what his job is.

Taoiseach - LEADER - but he doesn't lead his Government or manage his Ministers.

Never makes a decision in the national interest: does he even know how?

Pathetic. Micheál Softcock.

This is an excellent description of the government's attitude to every speed bump they face.
I would argue there are a lot of things that only exist in Micheal Martin's mind, principally his supposed 'decency' that he is forever bleating about

"....a massive homelessness and housing crisis. There have been people suffering just as much as, if not more than, the agricultural contractors, hauliers, farmers and individuals of chequered past who set up shop on O’Connell St and elsewhere last week."

Excellent piece @carlkinsella.bsky.social

"It’s actually tremendously easy not to be a Fianna Fáil TD. Not as easy as it used to be to not be a Fianna Fáil TD, like in 2011 or whatever, but one imagines it might become easier again come 2029"

"The truth is, far from being unpredictable, the government is perhaps the only collection of people in Ireland who saw last week’s protests and thought, ‘Jesus, where did all that come from! Did you know people were upset?’"

Another banger from Carl this week.
