Dublin Pride

And Labour’s fall.
Scenes from the 30th Dublin Pride, including raining on Labour’s parade.
More to follow.
Meanwhile, in St Petersberg
All the participants in today’s St Petersburg gay pride parade have been arrested and are being detained in police vans. Nikolai Alekseev, one of Russia’s most prominent LGBT activists who was arrested last month for organizing a gay rights march, confirmed with GSN that fellow activists and pro-gay supporters are now in police custody.
Alekseev, who was not arrested since he was standing outside the fenced area of St Petersburg pride, managed to tell GSN that participants were detained for breaching Russia’s ‘gay propaganda’ bill that passed Russia’s upper house in parliament 10 days ago.

Mario and Fafa on the famous pan-applicable monomyth by American mythologist Joseph Campbell which explains, among other things, why Happy Gilmore was a better movie than Jack and Jill.
But you knew that.

Have a look at what children in Tullamore did to raise money for their arts centre! 74,274 coins collected raising approx €3,750. They set a new world record for the largest coin mosaic.
The final mosaic of an oak tree measured 30 square metres, beating the previous 26 square metre record set in Estonia.

An epic drama on Sandymount Strand in Dublin observed by Bertie the Jack Russell.
You’d think he’d be more scared.
