We caught up with our Galway West candidate @socialmide-bsky.social to ask how her campaign is going, what it's like seeing your face on posters for the first time, and more. Míde will be a passionate voice for communities across Galway West. This May 22, vote Míde Nic Fhionnlaoich number 1.

Govt's plans to regulate short-term lets were welcomed across the board. Yet in the four years since, there's been no movement and no clarity on these regulations. Is increasing housing supply in rural Ireland and Gaeltacht areas even a consideration for FF/FG?

Young people from all over the Gaeltacht are leaving in their droves. And a major part of the reason why is the housing disaster. The Social Democrats have a plan to kickstart housing delivery in Gaeltacht areas. Tomorrow, vote for solutions over stagnation. Vote Míde Nic Fhionnlaoich number 1.

It's our new TD's first day – so we asked him all of the burning questions.

Despite being a major Irish city, Galway has been left behind time and time again. There is so much missed potential – from housing, to transport, to infrastructure. We need a TD who will stand up and fight every day for Galway city. We need Míde in the Dáil.

Renters in Galway are facing worsening conditions every day. It's crystal clear that FF/FG have completely abandoned them. The Social Democrats are committed to strengthening protections against rent increases, poor living conditions, and unfair evictions. Vote Míde No.1 on May 22nd.

Ireland should have some of the cheapest energy in Europe. Instead, households are paying some of the highest bills. We need urgent investment in wind, solar and the grid.

People in Galway West are worried about the basics - housing, bills, healthcare, and their children’s future. They want change, not more of the same. Míde is a hardworking, committed candidate who will fight for real solutions and a better future for Galway.

66.4% of us voted for Repeal in 2018. It’s time we get the Repeal we voted for. We know Repealers haven’t gone anywhere. So we need you to be vocal again and show your support. Ask your TDs to back the Reproductive Rights (Amendment) Bill this week in the Dáil.

Energy bills are continuing to rise. And this govt are simply throwing money at the issue without any targeting or any measures to prevent this happening again. We need supports for today and solutions for tomorrow.

MacFarlane: There is a consequence for the party having Paxton as the nominee. They're going to have to marshal a lot of money to fight this fight. But there are also a couple competitive U.S. House races on the southern border… a deflated party could make those even more competitive.

Are all religions really the same? Comparing Gandhi and Khomeini shows why that claim doesn't hold up. For Christians, Jesus is the standard — and that's not a barrier to interfaith dialogue, it's what makes it honest. ⚓

Been working on the look of terrain and platforms, currently using a grid map setup. While it allows me to make blocky terrain of any shape, I'm not sure yet if it is an efficient way of making maps (both time and performance) 🤔 Does anyone have experience with gridmaps? #GodotEngine #GameDev

Legend of Heroes' quest spanned multiple chapters filled with plenty of grind-filled leveling, strange twists, and traditional turn-based gameplay taking you on a grand adventure.
