This book entirely lives up to the 'BookTok' hype around its rediscovery. Gripping and chilling, given the state of the world. More dystopian stories should centre women like this.

LMFAO

SO good

Funny how the idea of freedom of speech is completely degraded in Western countries to mean saying horrible things to vulnerable people online without facing any consequences. when you can actually do that under a dictatorship regime, too.
I know right
So his marriage broke down cause he was "cancelled or because he couldn't stop obssessing over trans stuff?🤦🏽♀️
I refuse to use Tommy Robinson. : D
Yeah, I thought about that, maybe it's something to do with Cosgrave.
Bonus pic for anyone who was curious to see the pirate flag I described in the copy lol
This article by @shamimmalekmian.bsky.social is such a rollercoaster ... By turns positive and depressing. If you're near DCU, go see Hari's exhibition before it closes on Friday
Conor said the same thing that it feels like walking through Belfast's loyalist areas in Finglas.
Thanks for reading! 💚
Hari said it's going to be extended beyond Friday. : )
As anti-immigrant Dubliners hang more and more Irish flags, immigrant Dubliners exhibit objects that embody their Irishness. Read more here www.dublininquirer.com/as-anti-immi...

I also think the fervour with which Graham and his allies are crying "Police State" would make more sense if he was not literally the only person I've ever known to gloat about getting someone - the teenager currently taking him to court for criminal damage - arrested for tweets they posted.
Critical support to the Met Police for making Gr*ham L*nehan so angry he had to go to hospital lmao
Aww hi sweetie 💓💓

Every accusation (from the Nordie man) is a confession of how much of a ghoul he was as an accountant.
Anyone who says that immigration lawyers love profiting from immigration has never met an immigration lawyer. We hate the heartless, gutless cruelty we have to deal with every day. We could make a lot more money doing literally any other kind of law (except maybe criminal legal aid, to be fair.)
As an Irish immigration lawyer there is absolutely nothing that would make me happier than completely eliminating this entire element of my business. Abolish visas completely please
I've been telling him, "Captain, it's only Tuesday!"
Special place in hell for people who knowingly call people smuggling, people trafficking, as a way to make irregular migration sound criminal. You don't hire someone to traffic you, FFS.
happy september 1st
Yep
Haha, thanks, yeah, could be an upgrade thing, you're right.
Virgin wifi has been pretty unreliable for me in D7 in the past few days. Anyone else having similar issues?
(I agree that the endless chastising of Twitter users can occasionally get grating but lol at the somehow many people going "oh I only use it to post links to my work now", like "oh I'm actively trying to profit from the fascism site" is meaningfully better than "I'm on the fascism site for fun")
Aww well done, Fuzz 😽
WHO was a very good boy at the vet this morning 🥰
Happy birthday, hon ❤️❤️❤️
Happy Birthday to my Best Big Boy, this sweet, loving nerd of a fancy pants Loki the Chonk. This giant nerd has been through so much in his young life & through it all has remained nothing but buckets of cuddles & love. 😭
I am. This post isn't what you think it is
In Polish when someone provides false or unsubstantiated information with confidence, they are described as having taken it from IDzD. IDzD stands for Instytut Danych z Dupy (the Institute of Out-of-your-Ass Data).

Watto porn really got to you, Harry? 😔
While claiming it is like a warzone because of "foreigners"
The people shouting Dublin is too unsafe the loudest are often the ones who are way too online to be able to see what's going on IRL, anyway.
Linkedin? The place where people talk like this on?
Oh he totally disagrees 😅

Making your wife relive your infidelity in film is a choice.
This is what some of the "presidential hopefuls" campaign here looks like to me. JOIN ME OR DIE. CAN YOU DO ANY LESS?
At a stage where I have to Google if a source is on the flotilla to Gaza before texting them...
D7 folks, this sweetheart was last seen on North King Street, Smithfield Gate. Keep an eye out, please.
Sometimes I see people like 20 tweets deep into an argument with Grok. Like, what are you doing brother? You are trying to win an argument with a vending machine.
I really just think there are better faith voices to elevate than the ayatollah's favourite internet sketch comedian tbh

For his new crime drama, “Caught Stealing,” Darren Aronofsky needed a cat that could manage a New York City set and hit the necessary marks. Enter Tonic, a seasoned pro.

When he takes a break from maligning immigration lawyers, he transvestigates a person because their "forearms" don't look womanly enough. Imagine how privileged and carefree you have to be to be doing this shit and facing no consequences whatsoever cause you're hiding behind an anon account
Completely obsessed with this bruiser
There's a sanctuary in Meath that takes in often disabled cows and let's them live out their life happily but they're being evicted. If anybody has a few hectares and wouldn't mind cattle on them you should get in contact with them. It's heartstone sanctuary
At a recent gathering, there were calls for progress on returning African relics held at the National Museum of Ireland. Most are weapons, taken as souvenirs of colonial wars, said Olusegun Morakinyo, Africologist and former visiting scholar at the TCD.
While being like oh I dunno why the media only talks to Cathal Malone (whom I malign like my life is dependent on it)
God, I hope all the defamatory responses to it get all their arses in trouble.
Spouting absolute bullshit all day, every day.
This firm literally has been around forever. But just because an old Nordie whose head is fairly newly in the arses of immigrants, it must be new cause he just noticed them. Imagine the ego. Also, any person who implies that access to justice for *anyone* should be narrowed is a soulless ghoul.

Not for the first time, a client has instructed me to withdraw a Join Spouse visa application because the DOJ's excessive delay in processing it has led to the marriage's breakdown. The supposed special protection of marriage in the Irish Constitution is a sick joke sometimes.
Brill, I'll put it in the calendar.
Well done, Daniel!
More courts should be livestreamed: by definition, many courts are open and transparent to the public. I'm not convinced by arguments that distinguish between physical and virtual attendance.
Decided to take a few minutes to save myself a few hours. No more sitting in the car holding up orders so that I can write out the same text 30 times a day.
Just watched a guy do a non-Irish version of 'bye bye bye bye', on the phone being like 'ciao ciao ciao ciao'.
Certified cuties these boys
Has anyone else noted there is an incredible buzz on Talbot Street at night these days? So much colour and noise. Even the Lidl feels noisily exotic. (I imagine this is the kind of thing that gets those right-wing city haters in a state. Which is only partly why I mention it.)
Pure clickbait nonsense, with serious consequences.
I have dealt with sources who were Irish citizens but couldn't meet the habitual residency conditions for a state benefit because they'd lived abroad for a number of years and had recently returned. The fact that the Mirror says not being a habitual resident means being "illegal" is insane.
I mean, she called one of the most antisemitic platforms (X), the superior social media that she will never stop using or something like that.
Social housing list and HAP**
The headline is purely inaccurate and so so dangerous. Those without status don't and have never qualified for HAP. Being assessed as unable to meet habitual residency condition (seemingly the core issue here) is not the same as being undocumented, or as the Mirror calls it, "illegal"
