"What, according to Jim O’Callaghan, is supposed to happen when a child expresses discomfort about hugging an older relative? Their parents should make them do it anyway?" Here's a Surrealing in the Years Bank Holiday Special. The commenters absolutely love this one, I'm sure you can imagine.

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

I listen to a fair amount of Irish news podcasts and something I have noticed recently is the term 'Far Left' seems to have bedded in as an absolute given. Like everyone has accepted this is real? Who the hell is the 'Far Left'??

That headline is doing some serious stretching. All changes are within the margin of error - and it’s hard to see how a 3 point rise for Independent Ireland and a 1 point rise for Aontu indicates ‘voters turning to right wing populists’. Mad stuff.

“The Government explained that non-consensual touching was OK, as long as the intent wasn't sexual. So, as long as it was meant strictly non-sexually, Jim O'Callaghan could slide his fingers up my nostrils. I don't want that for me. I don't want that for anyone.” www.thegist.ie/the-gist-the...

This whole thing over her DRCC video is a reminder that children are an incredibly vulnerable group. The recent push by algorithms to push anti child and straight up child hating content is not only cruel, it’s so incredibly dangerous. Pushing for the silence and compliance of children is not good

I’ve been fuming over the response from the “abortion is murder, protect vulnerable children’s lives” men who opposed children being emboldened to have their physical boundaries respected. When adults don’t want to hug (I personally am very non tactile.) it’s a non issue. The hypocrisy is stark

Doubling down on hate and nastiness in a situation where victim Amy Acton is being dragged through this, even though she is the victim of rape from a pedophile. This perpetuates a vile, disgusting attack. Shame on the POTUS and the GOP.

Long before pumpkins became the Halloween tradition, people in Ireland carved turnips into spooky faces to ward off wandering spirits. This wonderful Ghost Turnip is on display at the National Museum of Ireland, Turlough Park, Castlebar, Co. Mayo, and it's guaranteed to stop you in your tracks!

It’s come to something when a photographer has to get legal advice, before displaying this photo in an exhibition, due to the risk of being prosecuted as a terrorist, but that’s exactly what I had to do yesterday. What a state this country is in.

You may have seen reports about the campaign for charities to be more 'transparent' about who funds them. Well it turns out the mysterious new right-wing think tank behind it won't say who funds or runs them, and used fake names for the authors of the report which launched their campaign

My grandma lived through the war, it ended when she was 7. She died two years ago, age 94. Moreover, she didn’t give a fuck about this and her best friend was an Indian immigrant. What the fuck are they talking about?

Behind the shock and whispers at this unnecessarily prolonged process we need to reflect on the victims. Donaldson and his wife did not plead guilty, he claimed the victims were liars, put them through a trial and made many attempts to drag the process out. May he rot. www.bbc.com/news/live/cm...
