the Cork Transport Workers' Union took possession of the Harbour Board's offices and assumed complete control of the local port, forming a workers' soviet until negotiations could be resolved.

The Cork Harbour Strike was a labor dispute that lasted from September 2nd to September 7th, 1921. It was the result of the refusal of the Cork Harbor Board to increase the wages of its workers to a minimum of 70s a week.

On September 6th, 1921, the Cork Transport Workers' Union took possession of the Harbour Board's offices and assumed complete control of the port.

According to the New York Times, "when the strikers took possession of the Harbour Board offices, they hoisted a red flag as a token of Soviet control and the strikers' leaders announced their intention of collecting dues from shipping agents and using them to pay members of the union."

The rebellion was short-lived, however, as negotiations between the Harbour Board and the strikers were reopened soon after, which came to a successful resolution. The revolt was not well-taken in the press.

The Irish Times wrote "To-day Irish Labour is permeated with a spirit of revolt against all the principles and conventions of ordered society. The country's lawless state in recent months is partly responsible for this sinister development, and the wild teachings of the Russian Revolution have fallen on willing ears."

Have you been enjoying the show?

She called me, we had a really long talk.

I told her how i realized the beautiful people I'm surrounded by, the under valuing of myself, of my backsliding into an awful person, of my future, of my mistakes, of my past.

She's had a really really tough time. Like everything's been falling apart. (perhaps not really but she's catastrophizing) I offered her an ear, i heard her problems, i told her of what she needed to see before, of what i was doing, of the future she wanted, of the future i was working for. About how we're approaching the end of the world, and how it would be comforting with someone.

If she is willing to take me back, then I have to leave it up to her. I dont want to, and didn't beg for forgiveness or anything, but was 10 toes down on my commitment to myself to grow. I cant persist as this person as i am. I need to better myself and complete my journey.

The talk was gentler at the end, but for now all that's left to do is to wait for the letter she was writing to me. I dont know what it'll say, and I cant predict if she's open to reconciliation or if it's over. I have to now wait for the final word.

:::spoiler and for the community Thank you for taking the time to read my posts, to comment, to upvote, to see my open pain, even so little against the horrors of the world. I have to thank you too as a part of the beautiful community to help me see better of myself. It's a lonely thing to be open on the internet sometimes, and especially when we have to be careful of fear of retribution being on an openly political and queer space such as this. I know only a few people showed interest, but i am deeply and infinitely appreciative of it. Human emotions can be a lot and we cloud our judgement sometimes based on it. But I still choose to love, not as my relationship, but of love, to love. It hurt so much because it was so meaningful and i'm glad i held to myself when it's so easy to digress and lash out emotionally. I kept my head on my shoulders and this time I prevented unnecessary harm to myself and the ones I love. And even as a cis looking nb who refuses the definition of masculinity as it is, we dont always have the emotional training to keep ourself in check, we dont see what the good outcomes are supposed to be by design, because patriarchy serves capitalism, which serves it back. We are here for each other, please remember that.

I'm not saying oatmeal cures my depression but the days I skip it I feel like curling up and dying isaac-cry

[–] XxFemboy_Stalin_420_69xX@hexbear.net 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

oatmeal is the goated cold weather breakfast, one of the best parts about fall and winter

[–] Wmill@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago

I've been eating for idk how long now it's just so cheap and filling so as long as I keep remembering to eat it I'll do it year round

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I dont get an appetite until way later than I should in the day. Oatmeal gets me through that period. I am a shower hang outer, when I wake up I get my bowl of oatmeal and a joint, stand in the shower with music or a podcast and eat my oatmeal and then smoke my joint and then I soap up. Landlord pays for my water and it being hot.

[–] Wmill@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

My family never understood how I could eat so much in the morning but I'm usually up well before I'm and get out of bed on time and hungry. In truth I can't eat much either when I just wake up

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah I don't really eat a solid meal for four to six hours after I wake up. I just start the day with a few cups of hot broth.

[–] Wmill@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Broth is good so good, I've been making some these past days from some boxes I got from the dollar store. I usually eat it during dinner to fill myself up with my usual meal tho instead of breakfast but I did rely on it when I was trying to fast.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 hours ago

What I've been doing is cooking a package of instant ramen, draining the noodles to save for later that night to fry with veggies, and just having the broth for breakfast.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I wake up pretty late so usually I eat my first non oatmeal aro8nd 2pm

[–] Wmill@hexbear.net 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I usually go for 9 am non oatmeal food but that's because I'm up at 3 usually and oatmeal at 4.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago

The character Buzzsaw in The Running Man is clearly equipped with a chainsaw literally unwatchable

Next time they make a DBZ fighting game they should give frieza a special move where she shoots a big laser beam at the ground beginning the destruction of the planet which in addition to throwing out a damaging Shockwave, resets the timer to 5:00 and freezes it there

:::spoiler oh no i get a text from my ex. she says she need more space. We shouldn't talk regularly. I hadnt been the one to reach out to her this weekend. She says "it's too painful to be my friend right now". Emotionally, i am gutted. This wasn't my decision. She broke up with me. and I wasn't even reaching out to be chummy. We're going to have a call later. I think the hammer drops.

if this is it between us, i dont know what to do. I dont know if it's worth the trouble of reminding her that she still loves me. If that's even remotely true anymore. I WAS giving her the space, she kept stepping out of it. She should know she can say one simple phrase and I'll come back to her, wrap my arms around her and hold her crying into my arms. I could promise a million times to resume the change both her and I want to see. I wish she could just tell me, cause it sees like there's always something more.

[–] I_Voxgaard@hexbear.net 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Seems like she is just trying to rationalize or otherwise dispense with her guilt. Grain of salt, etc.

If I were you I'd stop playing this game and let her know it's whatever (even though you aren't there yet).

[–] Grownbravy@hexbear.net 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

i am at the point where it's her decision to be hurt like this

[–] Grownbravy@hexbear.net 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I'm so angry right now, I would still take her back because i am the greater fool

[–] Grownbravy@hexbear.net 2 points 6 hours ago

I get to wear a dress at my job tomorrow! This is the first job I have that I have to dress professionally, I'm kinda hype for it

[–] oscardejarjayes@hexbear.net 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Damn, that's awesome. Nobody, man, woman, or inbetween, wears dresses where I work, it's very sad.

[–] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Bit idea: dress code that just says everyone has to wear dresses, regardless of gender

[–] oscardejarjayes@hexbear.net 5 points 7 hours ago

that'd be awesome. I love seeing buff dudes wearing dresses, there's just something about it that tickles my brain.

Void Stranger (hard mode) is going reeeeeeally slowly. This game is mentally exhausting, you spend ten to twenty minutes gaming out a level, get the incredibly brief flash of relief when your plan works, and then the next level starts. At least you can pause and walk away whenever.

And I learned that there's an EX mode after this, joy!

[–] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 6 points 8 hours ago

sadpostingA little over a month since the breakup. My mind is still expecting to wake up next to my ex, see their beautful face, and spend the day with them. I'm trying to fill the time but the emptiness keeps gnawing at the edges of my mind. I keep having to take breaks to cry. I want to hang out with friends and go places and meet people but it's so hard to muster the necessary energy. I'm going to dance class today and need some positive juice or I'm going to be a sad little dancer.

The beans I made yesterday were really bland, as I was thinking about what I want to do to the leftovers to make them better I realized that on a long enough timescale every recipe I make turns into chili.

realizing I've never played any Halo after halo 3 maybe? I don't think I played 4. Def. not Reach or ODST. I'm playing Reach now though and it's pissing me off because literally every time I pick up a weapon I've never seen before the game is like "hahah checkpoint, cutscene, weapon swap motherfucker! loser!"

I realized instead of just wasting the cajun Belle (not bell) peppers im growing or giving them away to my Turkish coworker i can dry and grind them. This is a blend of llike 60% cajun belle, 30% serrano and 10% habanero chilis. It smells like cocoa powder. This one skillet was 3 full skillets before they dried

Im making chili tonight

I'm also dehydrating like 16 Roma tomatoes because even with the spider mites killing them they're pumping out fruit. I'm gonna try to make tomato powder
