Stark article this.

Almost half of teachers identify students suffering an eating disorder

Findings come as educational resource aimed at improving body image is launched

www.irishexaminer.com

Although I'm fucking furious only 74% of teachers can spot a pupil with a Body Image Issues from all their classes. The other 26% must have been on the vodka since they hopped into their cars and be blind drunk "teaching."

Was meaning to tune into this.

Treating the trauma behind drug addiction 'best bang for your buck'

The Oireachtas drugs committee was established to examine the recommendations of the report of the Citizens Assembly on Drug Use

www.irishexaminer.com

I'll take a look at the committee text tomorrow. Thankfully (for my day of some rest and relaxation,) the Oireachtas powers that be have resisted the urge to use AI to get text up quickly (I think.) Although there's a strong case for them, as well as the TV production crew, to be taken on permanently. Sure, there's risks in giving a permanent job and supervision of broadcasting of the Oireachtas to any individual on a permanent salary, in a secured job with all the HR requirements (but, shur, you could say the same about every State department and civil service member.) But it's not exactly a vote of confidence that the broadcasting and accounting for the main body of the state isn't permanent and in-house.

Do they think the Dáil might close shop in a few months and they'd be stuck paying redundancy money out of their own pockets?

Started watching this. Seven minutes in, after the first opening speech I turn it off.

Not exactly pleasant Friday afternoon viewing. Not pleasant viewing at any point. You'd be broken after it.

Why the rise of spirituality among young women is not a passing fad

From TikTok tarot readers to memes about mercury being in retrograde, a whole new generation of women are finding themselves drawn to the mystical. Ciara Byrne explores

Good article, this. Something I connect to a lot, if not going for outright spirituality it would be description for my believes. Especially the order in chaos, stuff.

Even had my aura read last night (it's pretty alright. )



Anyway, free idea for any of the pub owners out there. Came up with this a few months back. Might be getting the dartboard in at some point. And there's sure to be bobs in spirituality. Everyone's gotta live.

We're all racists now apparently

Where are the riots when white Irish men attack?

Riotous reaction to Citywest allegations were rooted in racism. If your reaction to that is denial — ask yourself where the rioters were after Alanna Quinn Idris was attacked?

The whole thing about opinion pieces are just that, they are peoples opinions, which as is more often than not the case, are shite. But we're all free to disregard them like!
