Thanks once again to Bohernabreena cemetery for having your annual cemetery Mass on Father’s Day as you do every single year. Never stops being thoughtless. @sdublincoco

Ableism is far more debilitating than all my disabilities. Inaccessibility, being seen as broken, having to fight so hard to overcome barriers put there by society. It's exhausting. You want to stop disabled people suffering? Eradicate ableism.

To be fair, fibre was massively under-sexualised! 🤦‍♂️

I had never heard of you prior to your video (where you read the amnio results) crossing my timeline. I cried. Not because of the Trisomy 18 diagnosis for your unborn 21 (?) week old baby, but because it was apparent you were not going to accept this child as he was. Let me give you some words of hard-earned wisdom, please. I've had 5 miscarriages. Those babies were 'losses'. The 4th one was a little girl whose heart stopped at 12 weeks gestation due to Down Syndrome. Later, I had 2 sons. Four years ago, at age 17, I lost my eldest son. He was born profoundly disabled both physically and intellectually. It often wasn't easy, but hear me when I say he was the happiest, most loving, beautiful child I could imagine and he made me a mother. The loving bond he and his younger brother shared was tremendous and strong. His death was a loss like no other imaginable. I would have traded places with him if I could have saved him. Back to your video. I cried because I know what it feels like when a life you love more than yourself is ripped away from you. I worry that you may make the same decision if any future pregnancies don't go as you unrealistically hope. You didn't make 'an impossible decision'. You made a decision to end the life of you son who was halfway through his gestational time. It wasn't 'a loss'. It was a calculated decision. When you try to have children, when you get pregnant, you never know what will happen. If you cannot accept the child as he or she has come to you, I would suggest you think long and hard before trying again. PS: I don't hate you. I don't even know you. But I would suggest you and your wife take a social media break for the next few months. Really take time to reflect and heal. You put this out there for the world to see. I think it should have been private.

💔The US is now 8 nitrogen suffocation executions deep with another scheduled in Alabama on Thursday. No matter how many times former ADOC Commissioner Hamm repeated his line about involuntary movements does not make it true. Every single nitrogen execution has been horrific. FULL STOP🛑 🙅‍♀️There is NO good way to kill someone. Say NO to gas executions across the US... actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

#AndrewLukehart lives with Chronic Kidney Disease, a disease that dramatically increases his risk of an especially torturous execution - something that (in theory) should violate the Eighth Amentment's prohibition of "Cruel and Unusual Punishment"... @fadporg "Stop this killing spree, Gov.

Pregnant woman: I’m going to engage in depraved acts while pregnant. It’s my body so… Some on X: That’s awful. What about the baby’s body?! Pregnant woman: I’m going to exercise my right to choose to end the life of my unborn child. It’s my body so… Same people on X: Fair enough. Your body, your choice. #ConsistentLifeEthic

BOTCHED EXECUTION ATTEMPT #TonyCarruthers "In yet another outrage related to capital punishment in the United States, this time in Tennessee, prison officials have failed in their attempts to execute a prisoner. The execution process for Tony Carruthers was halted ("for now") with much blood and pain reported after a failed attempt to perform a cutdown to access a vein. Issues of due process and untested DNA evidence with could prove innocence in this case not withstanding, government cannot be trusted with the power to kill prisoners, and they certainly cannot be trusted to get it right, every time. It is well past time to abolish the death penalty." --abe Abraham J. Bonowitz Director/Co-Founder Death Penalty Action

A consistent pro-life ethic cannot stop at birth. It means supporting pregnant women, children, families, and the vulnerable before birth, at birth, and after birth — through maternal health care, childcare, family leave, housing, nutrition, and real protection. That is pro-life for the whole life.

Looking for the tri colour here is like the seoinín version of Where’s Wally
A sea of 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇮🇪 flags and Brits singing Sweet Caroline. No face masks, no genocide chants, no adoration for murderous regimes, no support for proscribed groups. @Keir_Starmer is this what hate and division looks like? Looks welcoming to me.

The vote on the Social Democrats Bill the other night was a welcome result. Not sure I would consider it some kind of victory though. This tends to lead to complacency and a relaxation of effort. Since that vote, approximately 50-60 human lives will have been ended via abortion in Ireland. This is a daily tragedy and the single greatest human rights violation in the country today and every day. Abortion will once again leave the media gaze until the next attempt to liberalise the law comes along. Human rights are for all humans #ConsistentLifeEthic

Even if you support the death penalty, people with intellectual disabilities should never 🙅‍♀️ be executed. The Supreme Court ruled that unconstitutional over 20 years ago. If #EdwardBusby’s lawyers and the State of Texas agree he's intellectually disabled, why is he still facing execution on Thursday?? 🪦If carried out, it will be Texas’ 600th execution in the modern era. No other state comes close. 🖋️ actionnetwork.org/petitions/… ☎️ 512-463-2000 #StopTheExecution

🙅‍♀️Oklahoma cannot undo one irreversible act by committing another. Tomorrow’s execution of Raymond Johnson will not restore what was lost. It will only guarantee more trauma, more grieving children, and more harm. ☎️ Gov. Stitt: 405-521-2342 🖋️ actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

Supporting a woman through pregnancy is not political. It is compassionate. It is necessary. It is life-affirming.

Ah yes, the science that Cairns and Co. insist on following.
Chair of the #AbortionReview Marie O'Shea tells the Health Committee that no country in the world has a mandatory abortion wait period except Ireland. This is totally wrong. Germany has a 3 day wait period and mandatory counselling. Belgium has a mandatory 6 day waiting period. And yet she'd accuse pro-life doctors of spreading "misinformation"!
