Ticketmaster love emailing people a few days before a gig like “IMPORTANT NOTICE PLEASE READ NOW” making you think it’s cancelled, only for the email to be “Hello we are ticketmaster”.

If your first response to the tragic murder of a young woman is to post "well not all men would attack a woman" or about how you personally wouldn't, please give your head a fucking wobble.

If ye're out drinking in Dublin tonight you should start holding up signs saying "RTÉ IS THE VIRUS" and claiming it's an anti-mask rally, the Gardaí will let ye at it without question.

Fine Gael, Joe McHugh, Leo Varadkar. You have let us all down today. You have let our 6th years down by refusing to cancel the leaving cert. You’ve shown no respect for our health and our futures. Absolutely disgusted. #cancelthelc #leavingcert.

Has anyone else noticed a weird uptick in the amount of far-right Americans interacting with Irish stuff? You see someone commenting like "We are full, go home!" then you check their bio and it's Parker, aged 57, from Lincoln Nebraska, never stepped foot in Ireland at all.

Man I hate academic writing, every single thing has gotta be sourced. I can’t just write “punching somebody in the face is bad”, nah I’ve gotta find a U.S Supreme Court decision from 1946 which dictates it’s unconstitutional.

So far tonight the government has: .-voted to gut a Labour bill giving all workers sick pay during a pandemic.-voted to gut a Soc Dems bill to commit to ending child poverty.-voted down a Sinn Féin bill to ban rent increases for three years. I despair. I absolutely despair.

Just so you know: you can, and should, be outraged by the treatment of people in direct provision AND the amount of homeless people in Ireland at the same time! It’s not some sort of ‘one or the other’ situation.

I find it really bizarre that "cancel culture" is being raised in the same sentence as Woody Allen, who still has his entire career despite multiple allegations of sexually abuse and grooming.

Incredible how bombing civilians (with a state broadcaster's logo on the side of some of these bombs) gets met with complete silence, yet a few protests asking people to quit gets a full statement. Fascinating!.

With all the talk of Verona Murphy potentially becoming Ceann Comhairle I'm reminded of her first ever general election run, back in my home county of Wexford, where she put up signs in EVERY SINGLE town and village in the county saying "Give [TOWN] it's [sic] own TD".

@rtenews People are literally dying of the coronavirus, students and their loved ones are at risk of death and yet they're being told 'sure look, just keep studying for Irish paper 1'. What a joke. Leaving Cert needs to be cancelled quick for the sake of everyone #cancelthelc.

Also the entire EBU line of "Russia were banned because of broadcaster violations, not the invasion" is complete horseshit because this is literally the line they took in their press release. Just no consistency at all

Still can't get over the EBU getting rid of the YouTube first rehearsals to try get rid of "toxicity" towards artists, before making them exclusively available to. the app with the most rabidly toxic userbase on the internet? Make it make sense.

🟣 Of all the winners this election, the Social Democrats may be the biggest ones. Five out of six seats look like easy holds, with a lot of optimism in elsewhere; strong showings in Cork South Central, Cork East, Limerick City and prospects in Carlow-Kilkenny. #ge24.

Fair play to SpunOut for organising the livestream, but it's ironic the LC gives you 0% if you don't answer the question since Joe McHugh hasn't answered an actual question he's been asked #leavingcert #canceltheLC.

I can't believe after seeing all of the upset and harm that this image based sexual abuse Discord leak has brought to women across Ireland and the pain it has caused, some men's first response is to try find the leaks for themselves. It's genuinely sickening.

I think a lot of people forget that if you don't teach about trans people in schools, students will learn about them anyway - they'll just get a hateful, wrong perspective from strawmen of trans people made by alt-right types like Matt Walsh, Ben Shapiro, etc, and that's damaging.
