This week we have a returning guest on @irishstewpodcast.com here are some word cloud clues #Gaeilge #IrishPodcast

I finally got around to purchasing this print from @ciaraioch . And it doesn't disappoint. I've been informed that the postman was holding it flat when he knocked at the door. #Speirgorm (Image slightly adjusted to remove annoying reflection of me)

I think Ds have largely avoided big discussions of Musk because the other messages they're concentrating on our landing so well and you can only concentrate on a few things. But it's worth saying clearly that the GOP is the tool of maintaining Musk's power over American society.

A #podcast is a treasure trove of #data Take the transcript of an episode and with a little automation you can build a #WordCloud Can you guess our next guest on @irishstewpodcast.com #Visualization #DataAnalytics

Just back from talk/discussion Little did this evening promoting the book. It was interesting, though time constraints meant he couldn't go too in depth (at least for us "terminally online" folk, plus the internet is big😋). But great to have something like this 5 minutes from home😀

For those politicos migrating to the #FarRight, being virulently anti environment is one of the toll gates to be passed through. Misogyny, xenophobia, racism are some of the other ugly checkboxes that need to be ticked #Politics #UKPolutics

I don't mind what religion someone follows, so long as they aren't preaching hate. And for capitalism – well I count myself as a democratic socialist, and I own a small business. I'm happy for people to make money so long as they do so without exploiting people or the environment, and they give back

A whole political movement should be stood up against this arrogant and sociopathic bullshit www.politico.com/newsletters/...

Suppressing misinformation isn't enough. Institutions have to answer the fears that fuel it. From Mark Little's new book: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘁 #SpéirGhorm #GlobalIrishNation @marklittle.bsky.social

A painful reminder for the #billionaire class financing the GOP. Money, while important, does not necessarily guarantee votes especially when voters are being called upon to elect a corrupt politician tethered to Trump and a party which has lost all moorings to decency #USPolitics #Texas

This “$5,000” thing is fooling no one. But it has made one thing clear: Republican desperation at the 1-month-out mark.

I've been drowning in pieces about all ways the Trump administration could try to steal the midterms. So I called up @rickhasen.bsky.social to get a better sense of what's actually worth worrying about vs what's just "electoral-process porn." Very clarifying convo!

I worked with leaders on both sides of the river as Secretary of Transportation to help get funding for the Brent Spence Bridge Project across the finish line. For about 20 years, people only talked about making something happen - now, we actually are.

This is a sad, and I believe true, indictment of the Silicon Valley #SocialMedia giants From Mark Little’s excellent new book: The Last Good Day on the Internet Well worth your time should you want to understand the toxic impact of technology on civil society #BookSky @marklittle.bsky.social

Andre Archimbaud named his agency after a song. A Hothouse Flowers cover "I Can See Clearly Now" that stuck with him since college, and ended up on his living room wall. Full story drops midnight Sunday. Follow Irish Stew now so you don't miss it. #GlobalIrishNation youtu.be/Y1HRcoHGmi4

Another #DimLightbulb moment Mr. Mullin doesn’t seem to understand the difference between commemoration and celebration. Nobody ever celebrated Pearl Harbor, the same holds true for #9/11 #USPolitics #Politcs

Cocchiarella: You've heard a lot of people say that if you're not going to fit in nicely with the Democratic establishment, you shouldn't be a Democrat. Sanders: Well, maybe the converse is true. Maybe the establishment should understand that they are out of touch with where the American people are

This is the state of the current Republican leadership in our country:

This AP investigation into David Brouillette, the ICE agent who shot Durán Guerrero in Maine is genuinely horrifying. Long history of extreme mental illness, chronic violence agst spouses and kids, PTSD and heightened violence from mil service. apnews.com/article/ice-...

We’ve seen this same explosive claim made many times that withers under scrutiny The game is played by making the accusation, having docile media report it, and then the media bury (or not report at all) the eventual resolution

Ossoff brilliant at this

Another day another Trump fever dream. His fragile ego cannot conceive of being the loser he was in the 2020 election. Interesting how the Democrats supposedly hacked the election in 2020 while out of power but were unable to do so when in power 4 years later #USPolitics #Politics

We’re in the 1st inning when it comes to understanding the #IrishDiaspora. There is no better guide than Martin Russell who has made #Diaspora engagement his life’s work. Delighted to have had the opportunity for this extended conversation on @irishstewpodcast.com #SpéirGhorm
