Greyhound racing in Ireland and England relies heavily on Irish dogs, and without government support, it could end entirely. This would lead to a decline in breeding and ultimately shut down the industry. Every donation helps to support this cause. Please consider contributing or sharing to raise awareness. Thank you for your support. gofund.me/f7b1eff59

Bill to ban Greyhound Racing in New Zealand passes its final stage (112-11 in favour). Scotland & Wales just banned it. Meanwhile in Ireland, our Government gives the industry €19.8 million of Exchequer funds p.a. while ~4 dogs die racing on Irish tracks each week #YouBetTheyDie

It’s AGM for the Herons on the grand canal!

Enoch Burke is in prison for violating a court order to stay away from the school grounds, not for refusing to use “they/them” pronouns. He is not a religious hero. The lack of support from the Churches should make that clear. Don’t let bias prevent you from recognising facts.

@RichSilver @YoshidaSoem Ran through some AI agents with Claude coming out with the one I like the best "花 — 霞 — 一日 — 波 — 方"Flowers… haze… one day… waves… direction" Suggesting classical waka poetry...The imagery echoes poems from anthologies like the Kokinshū or Man'yōshū."

@YoshidaSoem Thank you for checking it out and letting me know what you think. Maybe AI could decipher it eventually. I wonder if it's a receipt, or a bill of sale of some sort?

Hi Japan! Can anyone who speaks Japanese please help me translate this old note that was tucked inside the handle of this small knife for decades. I've always wondered what it says. Thank you!!

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

China deployed 100 fully autonomous electric mining trucks (mid-2025)… each running ~500–570 kWh batteries. That’s ~10× a Model Y. In -40°C. Swapping in minutes. Scaling to 10,000+ by 2026. This is the industrialisation of #Bettrification. Diesel doesn’t stand a chance.⚡🔋

@johnbradysf Deputy Brady - you have stated that you are "unequivocally against the cruel and inhumane act of fox hunting". Please back the #BanFoxHunting motion at the Sinn Fein Ard Fheis 🦊

UK bans reignite debate over greyhound racing in Ireland rte.ie/news/primetime… #Ireland #BanGreyhoundRacing

Please be part of this campaign - 40 buses in Dublin to end English and Irish greyhound racing! Did you know that without Irish Govt funding to the Irish greyhound racing industry - Greyhound racing in both England and Ireland would not be sustainable? England depends on Irish dogs to race with over 80% of raced dogs being irish! Irish greyhound racing makes no profit so without Irish funding it would close! Without this Govt funding; the Irish breeding of dogs would scale right down - English racing would require the surplus Irish raced dogs as it reports a shortage - but without the 6000 imports each year to fill the races we estimate English greyhound racing would close down within 3 to 4 years as tracks would not be able to replace their retired dogs due to a lack of greyhounds to fill their demand. This would allow a gradual and natural phase out of dogs; ending the racing industry.

In a shocking revelation, Greyhound Racing Ireland admitted today that as many as 3,000 racing dogs are killed each year. It's time for this cruelty to end. @GreyhAwarenCork @banbloodsports @ActionGrey1 @galgos_GIN #DeelSighthoundRescue @GreatHounds1 @LKAnimalWelfare

Greyhound racing could not survive in Ireland without State subsidy, a group calling for an end to the practice has argued. newstalk.com/news/greyhound…

On this day last year, a greyhound was killed by a vet at #Tralee track after suffering a hock fracture in a race banbloodsports.wordpress.com/2026/02/06/197… #YouBetTheyDie Don't go greyhound racing #BanGreyhoundRacing

FACT: Greyhound racing would end in Ireland without state subsidies. The Irish government pumps millions of euros of the Irish people taxes into propping up this failing industry. Our message to the good Irish people, tell your government to stop wasting your hard earned taxes on greyhound racing.
