Flavio Bolsonaro Rumoured To Be Working As Deliveroo Driver In Dublin https://waterfordwhispersnews.com/2026/10/28/flavio-bolsonaro-rumoured-to-be-working-as-deliveroo-driver-in-dublin/

Hyperscalers are building data centers while leveraging billions in debt, assuming an insatiable demand for computing. @edzitron.com, CEO of EZ Primary Research, thinks the gamble is shortsighted.

in 2004, Sinn Féin opposed the abolition of birthright citizenship. the Sinn Féin of today would be the ones proposing it. the distance they have travelled on just immigration is probably the biggest rightward shift on any political question I have seen from any party in my lifetime. it's insane

Lads, I found a picture of Jim O' Callaghan's constituents. No wonder the government won't stop building data centres #spéirgorm

Half a century of neoliberal centrism has been an unmitigated disaster for the entire planet, it’s not going to start doing any good any time soon. We have to be rid of it in every country.

Neoliberal centrism was THE method by which fascism has been restored to ascendency in so many places all at once. Reckon with that.

I don’t think any organisation has benefitted more from the ‘the internet it for cat videos’ view of how social media interacts with politics than Meta. You *still* get journalists talking about the ‘huge impact’ of Twitter who never mention Facebook. It’s so hugely stupid.

Will Chamberlain of the Thiel-backed Edmund Burke Foundation (which organizes NatCon) says that “The Brazilian regime should look carefully at what has happened to Venezuela and Cuba, and remember that this hemisphere belongs to the United States of America.” 1/

“Nice country you got here. Be a shame if something happened to it…”

Horrific, and to happen on the same Madrid - Andalucía rail line as the other horrific train crash in Spain earlier this year. RIP to everyone who died here, and I hope their loved ones will at least get answers in the coming days and weeks as to how this could happen...

You know what isn't needed when talking about how you're going to further ruin the lives of millions of people? Jokes

If you’re going to say that the Netanyahu bloc is larger than the opposition bloc, because the opposition bloc explicitly excludes the Arab parties, then you cannot also say that the fact that [some] Palestinians get to vote proves what a vibrant democracy Israel is.

Sean Kyne FG TD makes that point clearer. Cites negative comment from abroad in supporting the ad’s withdrawal. bsky.app/profile/lamh...

X’s bots and UK fascists now have a veto on Irish public education on consent, per our FG TD quoted here. If they can manufacture is controversy, we have to withdraw.

Flashback episode to the eggs hatching in real time?

It’s sort of one of the biggest stories in the world, but you only ever hear about it through random tweets - meta keep just taking down non-right candidates’ pages in the middle of elections. It’s clear and straightforward election interference.

The national French library, crucial for thousands of researchers' daily work: "we are currently dealing with a massive intensification of content scraping from Gallica [online resource portal] by AI robots, negatively impacting the service for our human users." This has been going on for a while.

Okay, I'll do some recommendations. Signalis is one of the best horror games ever, a perfect indie Survival Horror that's firing on all cylinders, and the music is incredible.

Renewing my occasional appeal for information on video of Zig and Zag saying “Bosco is a bollix” on live TV. If you have it, please get in touch #SpéirGorm

I'm not paid the big bucks to advise a political party, but if my party just lost a by-election in the leaders seat to a more socially progessive party I would maybe try win those voters over. Just a thought.

Ancient Celtic Working Group #4 yesterday: In a funny way, it was the perfect Samhain session of the group. We embarked on the fruitless search for the etymology of Lepontic 𐌐𐌀𐌋𐌀 <pala> "grave, gravestone", which led us to no satisfactory conclusion, but we made an interesting detour to words...

This is the first time Euclid has discovered such an object. www.iflscience.com/euclid-teles...

This simple action would regularly get the settlers calling the police and military on us. Usually after a round of harassing and even attacking us they would call them crying about us bullying them

This ban did not come about from any kind of violent or criminal behaviour. We had every right to move freely among the west bank communities we worked with. I simply made records of the daily harassment, intimidation, and violence Israeli settlers direct at Palestinians

Officially #BannedFromIsrael

Hey remember a couple months ago when I almost died from sleep apnea and begged y'all to be checked if you have symptoms of sleep apnea? Eric Bauza just died from sleep apnea. We were the same age. Don't ignore sleep apnea.

This is becoming a common pattern worldwide and if you're wondering it's because facism and patriarchy are twins.

Exactly how much of taxpayers money is Jim O’Callaghan going to keep wasting trying to look tough in front of FF bankbenchers and Russian Bots on Twitter.. High Court overturns decision to deny Gazan student visa www.rte.ie/news/courts/...
