Here's a twist on Canadian legend @Alanis's "Ironic" (who was fab when one of us saw her live last month) - in an acoustic version that addresses Trump's #tradewar with Canada and his attempted renaming of Lake Ontario. It's called "Moronic" 🎶 - lyrics: https://t.co/EXENOvVUj2

Do you remember when a fundraising campaign for the Navajo and Hopi people went viral during the pandemic, as people recalled the generosity of native Americans to Irish people during the famine?
If you were one of those who donated - you are invited to have your photo taken …

This is not misinformation.

That's what I normally cover - something out of context, an opinion quoted as fact, or a deliberate misinterpretation...

This is none of those.

This is full-on disinformation.

Because that is NOT from the Express. It is entirely fake😱

💔 💔💔WE LEFT BORRIS CARLOW HEARTBROKEN, ANGRY AND ASKING: HOW IS THIS ALLOWED TO HAPPEN?💔😡😡😡

Yesterday our MLHR team made an emergency trip to the horse fair in Borris, Co. Carlow, and what we witnessed was devastating.
Horses left without food or water, exhausted and some in terrible condition. One young horse, only around a year old, was covered in ringworm, had just one shoe and was desperately weak. He was being sold for €150.
Thankfully, we managed to get him out before he was sold. He is now safe with us and receiving veterinary care. ❤️‍🩹
But it wasn't only the horses.
We witnessed people shooting pellet guns at locals and at animals.
One mare who was shot with a pellet gun went running up the street with her goal following, heart breaking , 😡😡💔💔💔💔
We also tried desperately to help two puppies, but by the time we found a Garda who was willing to help us, the puppies had disappeared.😡💔
At one point, a member of our MLHR team was also put in danger. We raised our concerns with Boris An Garda Síochána , but we were deeply disappointed that we did not feel the seriousness of the situation was being taken as seriously as it should have been.💔😡
We always work and highly respect an garda Siochana , some of our volunteers and friends are Gardaí, which is why this experience was particularly upsetting.
We left Borris angry, heartbroken and exhausted, wondering how this level of suffering can be allowed to happen in Ireland.
And this isn't just about Borris. These fairs happen across the country.
PLEASE, DON'T LOOK AWAY.💔💔💔
If you see animals being neglected, denied food or water, injured, sick or in danger, REPORT IT. Document what you safely can and speak up.
And please help us care for the pony we managed to rescue. His veterinary treatment, medication, feed, farrier care and rehabilitation will all cost money.
If you can donate €5, €10 or whatever you can afford, please do.
If you cannot donate, PLEASE SHARE.
This poor pony had nobody speaking for him yesterday.
Today, we are his voice. 💔
This has to stop. Animals deserve better than this.💔💔💔💔

@junker_jo Reminds me of back in the day, I thought oral sex meant talking about it.
Good times.

There is nothing wrong with asking questions about how our food is produced. In fact, I encourage it, hence the message I sent to “Pia Crofton - Ireland Fresh” saying I was more than happy to answer any queries

But its concern to make that people with a large social media following can make serious claims about livestock farming without evidence. Claims that not only misinform consumers, but damage the reputation of Irish farming families who dedicate their lives to caring for animals

Like every livestock sector, pig farming unfortunately experience mortality. You will always have illnesses, injuries and losses when working with animals. No farmer earns to lose an animal, it’s a financial loss as well as an animal welfare concern

The Irish pig is continually benchmarked international against Interpig standards and we compare favourably with other countries. In fact the latest Teagasc National Pig Performance Report published in the last few weeks shows that our finisher mortality has been dropping (currently at 2.81%). That doesn’t mean there isn’t room for improvement, but it does mean we should base discussions on evidence rather than anecdotes.

Whether you’re a food influencer, a journalist or a farmer, we all have a responsibility to to ensure the information we share is accurate. Consumers deserve honest, balanced and evidence based discussion, not sensational claims.

Constructive debate is always welcome, misinformation helps nobody

This NYT report on how the Tate brothers escaped Romania to the U.S. is absolutely extraordinary work and a must-read easily missed. I highly recommend reading every word until the end. Note every name that supported them. And the toxicity of the activities and evidence. 1/2

Can we do it? If everyone who follows me downloads the @DogDogHQ search engine and uses it to earn votes and cast them for @BaliAid, let's see if we can get them a much needed share of the $30k! Please do this ❤️

Hello @IWCare I’m trying to find out if I have hard or soft water. I couldn’t find it in your web site. Can you help me with this? Thank you.

WHOA: Big win for @KatiePhang & for transparency on Epstein Files

In 44-page ruling, Judge Emmet Sullivan grants Phang’s motion for preliminary injunction, which sought further release of Epstein files by Trump Admin

Team Trump will still try to fight

A Young Teen Girl Collapses Inside Easons, Blanchardstown Centre - One of Ireland’s Largest Shopping Centres - Convulsing and Foaming at the Mouth. Connolly Hospital, with One of Dublin’s Major Emergency Departments and Ambulance Fleets, Is Minutes Away. 999 Was Called Immediately. No Emergency Response Yet. No Visible First Aid Administered. Now 105 Minutes and Counting.

This evening, at approximately 6.10pm, a young Irish girl collapsed in what staff described to me as a serious medical emergency on the upper floor of Eason’s two-level unit in Blanchardstown Centre.

A 999 call was made.

98 minutes later, there was still no visible emergency medical response at the scene.

Let that sink in.

A child collapsed on the floor of a major shopping centre in Dublin 15. She was unconscious. Her parents were sitting beside her on the floor. Staff had closed the upper level of the store where the incident occurred.

And people still tried to get in.

Not to buy medicine. Not to get food. Not to deal with an emergency of their own.

The upper level of this store sells stationery, envelopes, picture frames and similar retail items. The ground-floor bookshop remained open. This was not a question of essentials. This was not necessity. This was consumer selfishness stripped naked.

The girl was only feet from the entrance. She was plainly visible. Yet people argued with staff that they should still be allowed in, as though a collapsed child on the floor was merely an obstruction between them and stationery.

According to the manager, people did not ask how the girl was. They did not ask whether she was alive, conscious, breathing, safe, or being helped. They wanted what they had come to buy.

That is not merely disappointing. It is obscene.

I am deliberately not showing the girl, her face, her parents, or any identifying image of her in the attached video. This post is not about exploiting a child’s distress. It is about recording the disgrace of what happened around her.

Connolly Hospital is only minutes away from this location. It is a large hospital with a major Emergency Department. In a normal vehicle, it is close. With blue lights, in an emergency, it should feel almost next door.

And yet, 98 minutes after the emergency call, no visible emergency medical response had arrived.

I do not know where exactly the failure occurred. I do not know whether the issue lies with dispatch, capacity, triage, staffing, ambulance availability, or some other breakdown in the system.

But I know what I saw.

A 13-year-old girl collapsed on a shop floor. Her parents sat beside her. Staff tried to protect the scene. Members of the public argued to get past her. And nearly an hour and forty minutes after a 999 call, the emergency response still had not visibly arrived.

This is Ireland in 2026.

A child can collapse in one of Dublin’s largest shopping centres, minutes from a major hospital, and the system can leave her on the floor long enough for strangers to become irritated that they cannot buy envelopes.

It is now approaching two hours and still no emergency medical response.

This is not normal.

This is not acceptable.

And someone needs to answer for it.

Hi there @IWCare I got a new dishwasher and it has different settings depending on how hard your water is. How do I find out how hard or soft my water is? Thank you.

@SoVeryBritish Ngl actually did that once for real 😬🙄

[CBS News @CBSNews]

At a local youth cafe in Ireland last month, CBS News’ Leigh Kiniry asked a room of 11- and 12-year-olds if they owned smartphones, and not a single hand went up.

"My mom told me scientists did this brain scan," chimed in a boy named Sam. "It's the same brain as people — they're thinking the same thing if they're scrolling and drinking alcohol."
