Been doing quite a bit of it recently, but it feels like there's a million tools and apps out there, and no one thing that is obvious and straightforward.

Imagine telling someone 20 years ago that one day Sinn Féin would criticise the DUP for not showing enough respect and solemnity regarding Remembrance.
So let me get this straight? The Unionists used to foam at the mouth because SF didn’t attend the Remembrance Day service.
Now that they do, to respect the traditions of Unionists, the DUP has prevented the FM from attending.
How bloody stupid is that?

It's been a good few days to be woke, in fairness.
A while back, I built an independent version of the Public Record Office NI's catalogue.
My version is a lot easier to search and browse, and has more features.
If, like me, you visit PRONI to research history, I encourage you to check this out.

This is a false flag arranged by radio presenters running low on ideas who are desperate for a source of inoffensive banter

Carla Lockhart comparing people to Hitler.
Carla Lockhart.
Carla just compares herself to Churchill and Thatcher and Michelle O'Neill to Hitler in the space of 20 seconds. Hyperbolic insanity!!!

The party you lead passed this law and kept it in place for fifty years.
Chris Hazzard is on the record praising Fidel Castro - who was a dictator- as “towering figure”. He may want to sit out the lectures on democracy.
Bump.
Here's the thing about unionist unity.
Unionists need to be agreeable in order to work together.
Some unionists are much less agreeable than others.
And more-agreeable unionists tend to have an easier time working with non-unionists too, which less-agreeable unionists dislike.

In the 1920s, the UUP wanted Tyrone and Fermanagh to be included in the north, despite them having nationalist majorities.
In the 2020s, the UUP can't understand why so many people vote for Sinn Féin.

This is a passage from Carla Lockhart's letter.
Imagine the kind of afraid, insecure, bitter mentality you'd have to have, to sit down and write this out.
Had Givan been in charge of RHI, the cost of the wood pellets would have been £170 billion.
A Stormont department did not keep records of calls and in-person meetings linked to the controversial proposed allocation of funds to a football club.
What a piece of shit.
Russell Brand's Booky Wookie is also not to be forgotten.
Genuine question.
Does the TUV have even one black member?
I wonder what Joshua 4 Congress is doing these days.
This is my favourite Dolly Parton song.
Always be more Dolly.
The world would be a better place if there were more people like Dolly Parton in it.
What awful news. RIP
I am truly sorry you lost 2 children through miscarriage.
But it’s distasteful to invoke that experience to dictate to others about their choice to have an abortion.
Would you rather put on a Dangerous Abortion Day and light up City Hall for that?

I make no apology for opposing plans to light up Belfast City Hall for “Safe Abortion Day”.
As a mother who has lost two children through miscarriage, this is deeply personal. I cannot support our civic building being used to promote abortion as healthcare by those who would have considered my babies as nothing more than clumps of cells 😡
“Safe” for whom? It is certainly not safe for the unborn child whose life is ended.
This decision must still come before the full Council, and I and my party colleagues will be voting against it.
