Let's all use this occasion to take a look at the many ways Tennessee Republicans have shown how much they value and respect the Traditional Nuclear Family™

6 years from now Republicans will be on Fox News bitching about how President Newsom and the Democratic House and Senate have been too focused on fixing all Trump’s fuck ups, that they haven’t reduced the deficit enough. Paramount will be belly up and Colbert will be Ambassador to Iran. #VoteBlue

For truly, the pocket square is mightier than the proto-fascistic propaganda machine that backs US president...

We all celebrate the hero who went to a Nazi rally in 1936 with a napkin in his pocket that said “I’m not totally on board with some of this.”

💰Eric’s is up 10x, to $400 million

💰Don Jr.’s is up 6x, to $300 million

💰20-year-old Barron is worth $150 million

And Jared became a billionaire last year.

Have a great day!

Looking forward to tomorrow's papers, when exactly none of Ireland's columnists, who are usually so keen to tone-police every single aspect of civil discourse, will stand up for Eileen.
When people tell you who they are. believe them.

I'm lucky, none of my relatives died in the pandemic, but I remember the funerals. I remember doing prayers for the dying down the phone while the dying man's wife held her phone in the hope her husband would hear something. I remember the nurse in my parish who ended up with PTSD from work in ICU.

When writing this, I thought I might be upsetting the non-First Nation America. I was pleasantly surprised to see the respect by such a large number of ppl for native Americans & their right to be heard about their country. Ireland, traditionally, supports the First Nations because they helped us*

A crossword puzzle Across 1 - belonging to Ernie’s best friend Down 1 - the things you should be buying today

A cursory search on the internet has told me that on this day in 1924, the first book of crosswords was published.

And we must always believe everything we read on the internet.

Bradley Bytes: Abuse of Galway journalist reveals nasty underbelly of fuel protests One of the self-appointed leaders of the national fuel blockades was a man who had six judgements totalling more than €500,000 secured against him by the Revenue Commissioners.

Other deeply concerning things I’ve seen this week include; the doxxing of Garda, state employees, as well as outside contractors. Journalist reporting on the protests have been subjected to targeted harassment.

This is pure intimidation on a scale I’ve never personally witness before.

Harassment, personal abuse, & threats have become an endemic part of Irish political life. & it’s by & large driven by social media, which has played a major part in all of these incidents.

All of these incidents have been shocking but pale into insignificance compared to what happened this week.

I’ve be involved in various capacities in counter disinformation and counter hate speech activity on Irish online spaces for over 8 years.

I have never witness anything as bad as the abuse directed at Senator Eileen Flynn… it’s gamergate levels of targeted & coordinated harassment.
