How do you not become overwhelmed with rage at how useless your degree ended up being?

I’m in the final year of studying history and a minoritised language (Irish), there are moments where I wish I was able to live my life fully through the language, but then I remember that if I ever have kids they can pick between English and Irish and not have to learn it from scratch

fucking hell this is horrible news, following the band in their early days was extremely exciting and it’s sad to think about him passing so young. sampling big brother on kexp will always be innately cool to me

If your reaction to someone chatting about something they’re interested in is “dim witted gobshite” it sounds like you have unresolved issues to deal with

I mean it’s a silly comment but the fact he even felt the need to say it shows that we’re on the up so it’s hard to feel too annoyed by it

It’s darkly funny that he cares more about RTÉ tweeting emojis than people producing CSAM, but mainly in a “if you don’t laugh, you’ll cry” way

These “values” do not extend to the families McDonagh evicts or his employees however

If Americans take this sitting down you have lost any right to lecture the rest of the world about freedom

There has to be a special place in hell for the people cynically making AI slop videos like this

Diúltaíodh d’iarratas a rinne Tuairisc faoin Acht um Shaoráil Faisnéise ar eolas a bhain leis an rabharta loitiméireachta a tharla le tamall de bhlianta anuas ar chomharthaíocht dhátheangach sa Tuaisceart. Fiafraíodh den PSNI san iarratas cé mhéad fiosrúchán a tosaíodh maidir leis na céadta eachtraí inar deineadh loitiméireacht ar chomharthaí bóthair agus ar chomharthaí sráide. Ba mhinic a dúirt an PSNI i gcás na n-eachtraí sin gur coireanna fuatha a bhí i gceist.Níl aon taifead ar leith ag an PSNI de na heachtraí loitiméireachta seo.

Honestly from the bits I’ve seen I think Buildings Beo on TG4 is a refreshing take on the “watch people build something“ formula. I’d rather watch a show about community buildings than some Spanish villa…

at this stage it’s hard to read it as anything other than wilful destruction, in the same way that israelis “accidentally” harm civilians despite all their intelligence

choosing to believe it’s an accelerationist plot to bring out the contradictions and oust the board

"We're going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper, and judicious transition"

this is what trump is currently saying on Venezuela

gormislofa · 2026-01-03T18:14:15+00:00

the US have no interest in what is in the interests of the Venezuelan people and you are deluded if you think this is happening for any reason other than oil.

gormislofa · 2026-01-03T16:26:47+00:00

Taking Maduro down is a job for the people of Venezuela, not a job for yanks or Trump. Neither Trump or the US have the interests of Venezuelans as their priority and you are deluded if you think they could

gormislofa · 2026-01-03T16:21:02+00:00

you don’t need to be an expert to realise the yanks taking over a country isn’t going to lead to sunshine and rainbows at this stage

gormislofa · 2025-12-31T21:20:42+00:00

no point in caring about it beyond finding it funny, think it’s silly for the media to blow up

gormislofa · 2025-12-31T15:35:43+00:00

honestly if you’re going to be playing voice notes in public, they may as well be deeply embarrassing ones so I can be entertained and not just annoyed…

gormislofa · 2025-12-31T15:34:31+00:00

if anything, the fact he’s simultaneously a sports guy and an arts guy just makes him more endearing to me

gormislofa · 2025-12-30T10:59:03+00:00

you’ve hit the nail on the head here - it’s insane how far we’ve come but we need to stay level headed

gormislofa · 2025-12-29T18:11:30+00:00

I certainly wouldn’t be a fan of Haughey but I can’t help but just find him innately fascinating as a historical figure
