- The Cuban rapper Osky has been deported from the US. Check out his neck tattoo.
- A new bar Colllison has limboed under.
- So I'll just continue to performatively deport kids instead, it's nice and easy, I don't even read the file before I sign off on it...
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”
- Bribery - how cheap do they think we are?

- Maaaaaa!
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️Those are the hardest working scare quotes in the business. What is the goddamn bar for calling something racist without qualification if monkey videos don’t make the cut?

- We basically have a government that is now seeking to gaslight the climate. Would thinks this is going to work out well.

- It's eroding all of us in one way or another. Today I see social media being described as a public health issue, so is housing. And for what, so a minority of multiple property owners can horde more wealth. Our tolerence of it is some form of collective insanity.
- This is pure school of Trump stuff from the 'FF bright young thing'. www.irishtimes.com/environment/...

- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... This is as good as a death sentence for these deportees; which the Irish government have kindly assisted with by allowing the aircraft to refuel in Shannon airport.
- You'd imagine it could cause problem when they try to piste.
- A bus killed someone yesterday, cars kill someone every two or 3 days. I've never heard a commissioner talk about 'the problem of buses and cars'
- Have they ever taken responsability for a single failure of the many?
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️Correction: 100% are personally affected by the housing crisis; 71% don’t realise they are

- What is the 'problem of e-bikes' exactly? The scorn for riders is real.
- "If you come here you'll find no mass grave, no evidence that children were ever so buried".
- Gregory Campbell, unable to rise to the moment. The thoughts of how Humphries would have handled that makes me shudder.
- It's precisely because of where it was happening that nothing was done. And who can say how these things got used in parks and on canals when they couldn't reach those places legally by public road, certainly not the Gardai.

- More of it.
- In the middle of a Gaeltacht housing crisis, there are 573 properties available for holiday lettings in Conamara on Air BnB and just 10 for rent. jrnl.ie/6947863t
- Wasn't wearing hi-viz or a helmet we can only assume. Our roads are an absolute shit show, our housing is an absolute shit show, our healthcare is an absolute shit show. This is a choice.
- CoMmOn sEnSe innit when you don't notice cyclists in bike lanes that means they are a waste of space. We are, after all, basically invisible.

- It's definitely dangerous but lack of helmets is absolutely not why.
- Our lot pretending there are no algorithms at play framing and guiding user actions and that this is all down to personal responsability is definitely a choice.
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️In short: the #AMOC is weakening, may collapse this century, &even small shifts could trigger abrupt change These tipping points are a major national security blind spot, threatening food, energy &global stability, they must be addressed urgently As argued here by @laurielaybourn.bsky.social et al
- Or in the country side, where it's very arguably worse. "Ah shur I know this road like the back of me hand"
- John O'Brennan sitting in his ivory tower can't see why the government shouldn't be trusted because they work for his class. Still pretending the Secirity Council can override the General Assembly tells you all about the lack of good faith here. www.goloudplayer.com/episodes/the...
- This shows how seriously government takes the carnage on our roads. Floating this populist, victim blaming nonsense while they shelve evidenced measures is an insult to those who have lost their lives on our roads, their families and friends and to everyone who gets around using active transport.
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️The RSA did an advertising campaign whose basis was that if you are a young man and not driving, you are a big loser.
- On RTE 1 there, Today with David McCullagh, @mcculld.bsky.social asks: "what advice would you give to road users?" RSA spokesperson: "Very dangerous conditions for drivers." Continues to talk about drivers. Drivers only. DMC: "any advice for any other road users such as cyclists?" RSA: "Eh...."
- Would love to see figures on how many of the cyclists killed and injured are wearing hi-viz and helmets. If government felt they had a compelling case here, we would have. Instead they thought they could rush this through to the cheers from the worst drivers.
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️what drivers see when you're wearing hi-viz vs when you're not

- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️I was wearing hi vis when a motorist drove into me. Passengers in the car got out to tell me the driver was really upset because she didn't see me. I didn't have much sympathy as I was picking gravel out of my hands. I was visible. She didn't look.
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️I was wearing helmet and hiviz when another parent at son's school slammed open his van door while I passed and knocked me into traffic. Said that the van had been made with a "blind spot".

- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️This is cycling in Copenhagen. No hi-vis. No helmet mandates. People cycle because it’s safe — by design. This is what cycling should look like. Ireland is moving in the opposite direction. Instead of designing safe places to cycle, we're blaming the people cycling...
- FFG don't believe in magic wands, but do in magic vests.
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️I was knocked off my bike in broad daylight by a driver who I suspect was texting. The Gardaí wouldn’t attend the scene (because I wasn’t hurt enough) and didn’t respond to my Traffic Watch report. The issue isn’t hi-vis jackets.
- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️The problem that many adults do not seem to realize about "age verification" is that everyone who is not a teen will have to provide ID (and personal data) to prove it. It's not about protecting kids, it's to control everyone.
- Don’t believe the claims about ‘kids safety’ behind the push for Online ID checks. They are and always have been about surveillance and censorship. @cassiewillson.bsky.social is spot on in this video
- But the thing is, none of it impacts them. Kids learn about politics often through shitty stuff that happens to them, their families, friends or communities. Nothing can touch those dumb shits now.

- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️What a wildly stupid idea. Mandatory helmets and high viz is a proven remedy to reduce the number of people cycling. It effectively kills off things like Dublin Bikes. That's why no other EU country does anything like this. Pure madness.

- Reposted by Joe Molloy 🇨🇺 🏳️⚧️It’s 2028 and all pedestrians are mandated by law to wear hi vis clothes at all times. Black north face jackets are illegal. Black mascara has been outlawed and replaced with neon. Drivers are still watching tiktok and saying didn’t see you there pal.
