The first time I ever heard Sinead O’Connor’s voice was in her collaboration with the Chieftains on ‘The Foggy Dew.’ I was a small child at the time. Her haunting vocals and her familiar pain never left me.

Margaret Skinnider (1892 -1971) pictured in the centre.

She was a Scottish-Irish teacher, Irish Revolutionary, member of Cumann na mBan, Easter Rising veteran, sniper, Irish Civil War veteran, trade unionist, feminist, and lesbian. Her partner was Nora O'Keefe, a fellow revolutionary, feminist and trade unionist.

#this picture means so much to me, y’all have no idea. if i knew him back then while he was in his raggedy ass acid jazz band, he would’ve had me ass naked in the pub bathroom.

It's been forty years since Ann Lovett, aged 15, died after giving birth inside a religious grotto, underneath a statue of the Virgin Mary. May she and all other women and girls who have died as a result of misogyny and patriarchy rest in peace. We can never underestimate the importance of women's liberation, and how it is an ongoing battle for women all over the world. Ann should still be alive today, but her life was snatched from her by a misogynistic society which treated women as lesser, held them to higher standards than men, allowed abuse to be flourish and stripped women of autonomy in more ways than one.

Went to the Spook School "10 year Anniversary of Dress Up" show last night. Fucking incredible show, no wonder my partner was so excited to see them.

I was not ready for the fucking mind-blowing support band. They're called Problem Patterns, they're from Ireland, and they're a self described "Queer Intergender Feminist Rage" band. Holy fuck that's accurate. They RAGEEEEE. They were fucking INCREDIBLE.

I've never seen anything that PUNK before. Never seen a band so ferocious and furious and powerful with it. The songs fucked super hard, the lyrics went even harder, the crowd was INTO IT. The coolest thing about it? No designated singer/guitarist/drummer/bassist. They ALL swapped and changed and slayed for like every song. Incredible shit.

The songs? I mean..

Titles should give you a clue but they do not justify how INCREDIBLE they were to witness live. An absolute moment. I, as a He/They, know their music isn't speaking FOR me, but it absolutely blew me away and my partner was HYPED UP. She told me that she got goosebumps during the first song. I mean these lyrics so go fucking hard dude

Please, if you like punk, pissed off women, bands like Bikini Kill or Fresh or just are looking for some new incredible female/Intergender rock music or whatever the fuck; I IMPLORE YOU please check them out. They're fucking incredible.

NOLLAIG NA mBAN SHONA DHAOIBH!!

Nollaig na mBan - Womens' Christmas - Little Christmas

Dhá lá déag tar éis Lá na Nollag, ceiliúraimid in Éirinn Nollaig na mBan. Ar an lá seo, déanann fir obair an tí - obair a déanadh mná don chuid is mó san aimsir atá caite (agus leanann an nós sin fós, in ainneoin an sár-obair atá daoine áirithe ag déanamh leis an gcás sin a athrú!!)

Tá sé mar nós againn fós an Crann Nollag a choinneáil suas go dtí an lá seo, agus tá traidisiúin bheaga ag gach teaghlach in Éirinn don lá seo. Cén traidisiúin atá agaibhse?? ☺️😄

🎄🤶🕯️🎁🤴🏾☃️

Twelve days after Christmas Day, we in Ireland celebrate "Womens' Christmas". On this day, men do the housework - work done mostly by women in times past (and typically still today, despite the great work particular people are doing to change that situation!!)

It's still a tradition to keep the Christmas Tree up until after this day, and every Irish household has their own little traditions for this day. What are your traditions for Womens' Christmas?? ☃️

...In Ireland, Elizabeth and Lily Yeats are remembered if at all as the “weird sisters” – a fleeting, scornful reference in James Joyce’s Ulysses....They ran an arts and craft enterprise, Cuala Press, from 1908 to 1940, but Elizabeth and Lily were chiefly known as the sisters of two famous brothers – the poet William Butler Yeats and the painter Jack Yeats....The Cuala Press employed only women and produced handcrafted books, cards and prints that won glowing reviews at exhibitions in Paris, London, Chicago and elsewhere, seeding a romanticised image of Irishness that verged on propaganda....

There's a new documentary Croíthe Radacacha (Radical Hearts) set to air on TG4 on December 6th about the many lesbian couples who were involved in the 1916 Rising and The Irish War of Independence. I'm so excited because this is such a neglected part of Irish history and something like this has been my dream!

It's to include Eva Gore Booth & Esther Roper; Elizabeth O' Farrell & Julia Grenan; Helena Molony & Evelyn O’Brien; Margaret Skinnider & Nora O’Keeffe; Kathleen O’Brennan & Marie Equi; Kathleen Lynn & Madeline Ffrench-Mullen and Louie Bennet & Helen Chenevix.

Let me just say shut the fuck up to my fellow Europeans saying shit about the US and how they expect it cause “welp it’s America”. This is a horrific fucking tragedy. How dare you make light of this. And we’re not better than them!!

First of all, there are European countries with just as horrific anti abortion laws and policies in place. The war on abortion is very much alive in Europe.

Secondly, when a change like this happens in a country as powerful and influential as the US, the pro-birth rats across the world are going to scurry at the chance to ride this wave. Our countries could be next, be careful and be vigilant.

Not only removing the sexism in the constitution BUT ALSO expanding the protections traditionally only given to married people so that they apply to all families!!!!!!

#I'm sure there will be restrictions on how ppl can define family. This isn't cuba. #But pretty fucking good!!!!! #Irish shit #Politics #Feminism #Me Fein
