How has T.R Knight never been cast as a hobbit? He does quiet strength so well, he would be amazing.

[Maia Purdue @HungryHunter97]

This feels like a small issue in the grand scheme of things, but so many Irish landlords don't allow pets, and I understand their concerns, but that's why deposits and pet deposits exist. Seeing so many poor animals abandoned on @GalwaySPCA and there aren't enough homes 😡

The famous Zaitoun district of Gaza city today.

It no longer exists.

The final building, Fourqan school was evaporated by the demonic forces of evil.

Fuck Israel forever

@enemycharlie Lol I'm 5'2" and I agree, but I'm married to a 6'5" man.. I dated men of all heights, but did find that taller men liked how short I am? My husband (thought he was a summer fling 6 years ago lol) is my best friend, loads in common, but tall gals give out to me for "choosing" him

The Irish were indentured servants/serfs. Our labour was owned but not our bodies or personhood. While there was some crossover in experience, the Irish were never slaves and in fact numerous Irish in America unionised to exclude freed slaves from the workforce in the states.

[History Nerd @_HistoryNerd]

The Irish were among the first slaves in the Americas—sold, starved, and worked to death.

Their suffering was silenced, their story erased.

But this dark chapter shaped nations in ways few realize.

Here’s the forgotten truth about Ireland’s tragic history of slavery:

@o_reachtaire Stayed at the clybaun last night, really reasonable thank god

[Maia Purdue @HungryHunter97]

Obsessed with MM thanking the regional group to show solidarity, but he's actually just cemented that they are with the government and shouldn't have opposition speaking time. #Dail

[Maia Purdue @HungryHunter97]

And this nonsense with the technical group isn't a subversion?

[RTÉ News @rtenews]

Micheál Martin has said what happened in the Dáil today 'was the subversion of the Irish Constitution' | Follow live: https://t.co/ZcpxUBLKEs

Another year, another rental agreement which stipulates no pets 😭

Reminder ahead of tomorrow:

You don't have to number all the way down.

If there are parties/candidates who you don't want to see in government, leave them blank so they get none of your transfers.

Israel has put Jenin refugee camp under siege, trapping over 50 Palestinians since Wednesday. They have ZERO access to water, food, medical care and electricity. They are constantly under heavy Israeli gunfire and bombing. Israel is shooting Paramedics that try to enter.

[Maia Purdue @HungryHunter97]

@Maebhcon Also so many are acting like everyone down home agrees with the protest and I'm like ? We definitely haven't been talking to the same people...

[Maia Purdue @HungryHunter97]

I grew up in this parish, the only thing that bothers me about this is the absolutely disgraceful behaviour of the locals. A lot of hypocrisy going on, making a show of themselves and making migrants feel unwelcome when the opposite should be true.

[RTÉ News @rtenews]

The Department of Integration has confirmed approximately 80 people seeking international protection have been moved into Dundrum House in Co Tipperary

@Maebhcon Hey! Mam was just telling me she met your mam and she was filling me in on ye all! This thread is friggen mad lol

[Maia Purdue @HungryHunter97]

@AshRyanDonal Like people are acting as though I'm out here crying death to Kickhams, when all I said was that the protest at the gate bothers me. It's insane.

[Maia Purdue @HungryHunter97]

@AshRyanDonal I agree it is not ideal, but I think protesting on the gate as 80 women and children arrive (which people are saying was men which 1. Isn't true and 2. Why shouldn't men also be entitled to refuge?) Targets migrants, not gov. and paints the parish as unfriendly and unwelcoming.
