Bookish. Curious. Believer in a little magic everywhere. Would follow my dog to the ends of the earth and far beyond. Looks for kindness first.

@LibrariesIre little idea I have, if anyone wants to send suggestions. Where are ireland's quirkiest, different libraries? Thinking of the restorations at Birr, Loughrea, Sixmilebridge, Moate. Old churches and courthouses repurposed beautifully. Any others?

@iRed2922 @stevepcarroll When the nurses' strike happened in 2019, many people vilified them. When ASTI pay and supervision action took place in the 2000s same thing. Same for the Dunnes Stores anti apartheid strikes of the 80s. Fair play to stand with protesters. No need to denigrate others as you do so

@fsrobbins @stevepcarroll Because there’s bigger things at play here far more important than Stephen’s or my own stupid job in fact, poor him having to go to work while people are protesting bless him. People are struggling to survive and I stand with anyone trying to stand up and change things

Stephen Carroll@stevepcarroll·12h

Amazing, all these people who can spend 4 full days not working, sitting around the city centre, while the rest of us actually work and contribute. Now they're taking free food from McRapist. Hilarious

@iRed2922 @stevepcarroll Ummmm... except telling other people on social media their little jobs are stupid or calling them fools sort of does classify as bitching online..... and is not really much in the way of solidarity for working people either.

English

I.Red2922@iRed2922·1h

@fsrobbins @stevepcarroll I am the working class you fool, I still get behind the protestors because I can see the bigger picture. I’m not bitching online because of a bit of inconvenience getting to work

@JasonLawlor1003 @drorfh Any more than standing in front of a microphone claiming to speak on behalf of the people of Ireland doesn't make you their representative

Jason Lawlor@JasonLawlor1003·3h

@drorfh You're not a real doctor and your opinion is irrelevant. A made up government funded PHD doesn't make you one.

Interesting that they think the people of Ireland are only white men of a certain age....

'We are the voice of the people of Ireland.' After being denied entry to a government meeting to discuss fuel prices, fuel protest leaders voiced their frustrations with the ongoing situation.

@81Tallpaul @drorfh You research must be tireless..... oh no sorry, Tallpaul, I got mixed up. Tiresome is what I meant to say.

@drorfh Fun fact, there are more black murderers in Ireland than back farmers,also a fact there are more Pakistani, Indian,& Roma murderers killers than farming in Ireland north & south.

@Greenman1988 @drorfh Weren't we warned about the dangers of allowing women to be educated? Only ourselves to blame! If only we had listened

English

Paul Mc Aleer@Greenman1988·1h

@drorfh People like you are the problem. You need to be removed. You make a living off everyone else. Too over educated and no common sense.

@drorfh White men of a certain age are the ones that drove the British out an built our current country....

@murra4712 @drorfh You've been watching the Michael Collins film again haven't you, Prof? Just one or two things have happened in Ireland since the 1920s, just a few small things you may have missed

@AnDaghdha @drorfh When you realise Eamonn de Valera and John Charles McQuaid have died, you will be so shocked.

@drorfh Irish people are white, men are leaders, and older men even moreso. The world is not vibes-based. Cry more, leftist.

@Rolo14073750661 @drorfh Nothing is more comforting than hearing Rolo from the UK express interest in the indigenous Irish.

Rolo McTavish@Rolo14073750661·2h

@drorfh Who else is speaking up ? The white man is the indigenous resident of Ireland historically so why wouldn't he be the one speaking up ?..... Dr clueless.

@knockmoreabu @drorfh Ah here is a real Irish man. Look at the beautiful poetry of his prose. So in the tradition of Seamus Heaney, John B Keane, W. B. Yeats etc. The saints and scholars are still among us.

@243_cal @drorfh Are you one of the heroic men who really, really cares about protecting women and keeping them safe?

English

243Cal 🇮🇪@243_cal·3h

@drorfh These white men are keeping the lights on, the food on supermarket shelves, the airplanes in the sky, houses built, roads maintained, while you work on your dissertation on systemtic gender inequality among the Yanomamo tribe of tge Brazilian rainforest or whatever it is you do.

@SuzanneLC3 If you knew 1 fact about the Civil War it's the last thing you'd evoke. A heedless post like this is offensive to all casualties of the Irish Civil War. Aligning with Conor McGregor is a betrayal of women & the Ireland that women sacrificed so much in that war to secure

@Tom556710691115 @westcoastiscool I think the ruling of the Dublin High Court provided that. Also the Court of Appeal. Oh and The Supreme Court.

@westcoastiscool That’s a terrible accusation calling a man a rapist. I hope you have evidence

@sherratt71650 @Annie_deBhal Oh Gordon, you might have a few MAGA fangirl accounts crying over their Irish flag emojis now, maybe even too teary eyed to be able to read Conor McGregor's posts for the evening. You know Trump said it himself. They call him Daddy now.

Would it not be appropriate for the truckers to blockade Trump Doonbeg? He started all this.

@TheLiberal_ie Think it's yourself that's at fever pitch at the idea of things 'kicking off,'. How bored or empty do you need to be to delight in the very idea of chaos, of discord, of torment? To want to stir that hunger in suggestible people? If you don't realise, it makes you nauseating.
