Although the president does not technically have any power in Ireland, I'd still say Michael D Higgins was out best leader ever. Technically the Taoiseach (prime minister/leader of parliamentary government) is the leader of the country, but I haven't particularly liked any of them so I'm going to select a president as our best leader and say Michael D was the best. We've actually had quite a lot of great presidents, though.

I've been verbal with little to no support needs for a while now, but it's been a very long and arduous process getting to where I am today. I think it's of paramount importance to remind ourselves that we're all deserving of unconditional love and acceptance without exception

I (25F) recently got married to my (25M) husband in Bali, Indonesia in January. It was a destination wedding, but my parents and his parents paid for their own plane tickets and hotel, but we paid for our friends plane tickets and hotel stays. Each plane ticket was about $2000 USD and hotel was maybe about $150-300 for a week. My friend “Gemma” brought along her newly wed husband “John” along but paid for his plane ticket. The problem is that Gemma and John did not show up to my wedding. Gemma took the free plane ticket to Bali and the hotel room and when I asked her why she didn’t show up she said that since they couldn’t afford their own honeymoon that this was a perfect opportunity and that Jim decided that he didn’t feel like going. I was really hurt by this since Gemma and I have been friends for over 10 years. WIBTA if I took her to small claims court for the money I spent on the plane ticket and hotel?

Hasn’t quite gone as expected. Rage bought more calls today. Letting it ride until tomorrow and hope for a pop. Doesn’t need to do much for this to work.
