  1. Couple was on track for early retirement until kids blew up the budget. Can they still achieve their goal on one income?

    For years Alejandro and Brady Muñoz followed a straightforward financial playbook: keep expe…

  2. Great piece!

    Surrealing in the Years: We're entering a new era of lawlessness. Don't expect much help from our leaders

    "Sometimes it sort of feels like after almost 800 years of fighting for freedom a decision was made upon the establishment of an independent Irish state that we would spend the rest of our existence capitulating to anyone who’s prepared to pay a corporate tax rate of a little over 10%"

  3. Why My Live Streams Are Part of Adventure Adjacent (Not a Detour)

    Too cold to wrench, too busy to travel. Here's why live streams (trucking, hunting, etc.) still count as Adventure Adjacent, and how they keep curiosity warm.

  8. Another day, another High Court hearing in Dublin about #EnochBurke's continued #trespass at #WilsonsHospital school.

    "Enoch Burke could be forced to pay for security guard who is hired to keep him away from school", reports #TheJournal thejournal.ie/enoch-burke-secu

  9. THE TENANT AT the centre of the #JimGavin rent payment issue contacted #FiannaFáil on Saturday but has not received any call back from either the party or the former candidate, reports #TheJournal.

    Surely, being v helpful to the tenant was #FiannaFai's obvious priority for damage limitation? Instead, this is looking more and more like #Haughey era damage maximisation.

    I hadn't foreseen that Micheál Martin's career would end so badly.

  10. Once again #thejournal opens a piece about cycling/walking/driving to comments and once again the racists bail in....

  11. @janwwbosch #thejournal is an absolute far-right wing cess pit. I’ve reported dozens upon dozens of comments many times worse, and while they might occasionally delete the odd comment the hate speech accounts stay up and continue as bad as ever or just come back as a slightly different name. I can’t see much difference between the mismanagement of open hate speech on their platform and facilitating it.

    I’ve deleted the app from my phone

  12. Once again #thejournal facilitating racists in the comments on anything to do with road safety

    Here's one for ya
    Already too many taxis and e-scooters in Dublin. Most of the owners experience seems to have been driving herds of goats in the world world or personal injury insurance scammers. Shoot the lot.

    Oh and incitement to violence

  13. Money generated from the sale of Israeli bonds in the EU has been used to fund #IDF military operations in #Gaza

    Ireland could stop the sale of Israeli war bonds in the EU, because the Irish Central Bank is the body responsible for approving #Israel 's bond prospectus - without this approval the #bonds can't be sold in the #EU

    Public broadcasters in Iceland, Slovenia and Spain have also raised concerns around Israel’s participation this year

  20. Good piece in #TheJournal from @walesonline.bsky.social about the best chance we’ve had in decades to fix the awful transport infrastructure in Wales. The key - as always - is to own the problems and solutions. Welsh Gov should straining all sinews to secure devolution. #Wales #Cymru

  21. ... Not helped by their breathing problems. The pain makes them comfort-eat, so they usually become overweight, worsening their arthritis. They also have significant skin and foot problems- itching and infection.

    How anyone can think this is cute and amusing is beyond me. How #DSPCA , #thejournal and #AllianzIreland and #Allianz can buy into this - for a little extra money - is sickening.

  25. It's almost as if #DSPCA and #thejournal and #Allianz were unaware of the issue; odd given the ongoing campaigns on it. E.g. in 2023, the Advisory Council on Companion Animal Welfare (ACCAW) issued a letter to advertisers and media, urging them to refrain from using such images. madra.ie/brachycephalic-dogs/

    It's a horrendous image. #AnimalAbuse is never "fun" or "cute". Is the money they earn from this really worth it?

  29. I keep getting these ads on #thejournal.ie, purportedly to promote animal welfare but in fact featuring an image of animal abuse. "To continue to breed from dogs whose progeny are bound to suffer is not only irresponsible – it is an act of cruelty." From sentient.org.au/breeding-brach

    People breed, and other people buy, these dogs, who are born to suffer for a lifetime until they finally end their days, often through agonising suffocation. They think it's amusing or cute.

  33. I periodically think that maybe I should throw The Journal a few quid and then I look at the kind of dipshit morons they are platforming in the comments section to articles like this. #TheJournal

  34. Been offline cruising through books lately. Had some difficult thoughts around transmasculinity recently that I wanted to share. Still forming them, but it's a start. #theJournal

  35. CW: Writing about COVID

    Been thinking a lot about how masking has been discussed in the U.S. over the last year. Us immunocompromised folks continue to be f*cked over. I don't think most able-bodied folks realize that they're also at risk. 🤷 #theJournal

  36. CW: Anti-trans moral panic in Ireland / analysis

    Grab a cuppa and settle in for this in-depth, myth-busting long-read on the attempt at whipping up moral panic in Ireland over trans people - an excellent article (with a terrible headline) by Stephen McDermott in The Journal.

  37. My mother ( now in her 80s) just told me that she met a woman in a bridge club, who knitted some boots for me when I was a baby. As it happened, this woman was the first female engineer in Ireland (or Europe)!

  38. Anyone else listen to #TheJournal podcast from WSJ? Good storytelling and episodes are less than 20 minutes each.

    The latest episode is super interesting if you're into geopolitics/IR: wsj.com/podcasts/the-journal
