A west Belfast man is hoping to set up a dedicated suicide prevention centre following the success of his men’s walking group which saw him recently receive a mental health award. Aidan Malone, 32, founded the Divis Mountain Men group in May 2025 as a way of getting men together to talk about their feelings. Read more: tinyurl.com/yvbvxd95

On Halloween night 1920. Kevin Barry prepared for execution the next morning, with support from his college friends. 'The boys from the college were up outside the gate and they said the Rosary. They also sang the Soldier’s Song, which did me more good than you can imagine.'

The lunatics have taken over the asylum 😳
Forget about these new-fangled pumpkins 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃 of recent years, this is proper old-school 31st October stuff - not often now that you see the trusty carved turnip of all our Northern Ireland childhoods!! Spotted while visiting a good friend this evening 🧡💜💙and carved by her sister!

OK Lads question.. Is Derry more Irish than Belfast 🤔
The atmosphere in Derry this weekend shows just why the city’s Halloween celebrations are world-renowned, with the streets full of costumes hours before the famous parade had even begun. Gabrielle Swan reports from Europe's largest Halloween festival. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/…

I have rarely seen unionism so badly fractured. Unionist unity is a pipe dream. And at any rate it’s little more than a comfort blanket full of holes. It might have had some impact 50 years ago but the times they are a changin’.

People like Nolan pump out the odd decent piece of work every year or two in order to PURCHASE our tolerance the rest of the time That is NOT a worthwhile trade. We need to seriously wake up to that

We need to get something through our heads, and hold it in our hearts Agents of Chaos will remain Agents of Chaos unless and until they make a conscious decision to stop acting as Agents of Chaos

They erased her. They didn’t just remove a woman from scripture—they removed the Divine Feminine from the entire human story. They didn’t just distort Mary Magdalene. They assassinated her legacy. Buried her under centuries of slander, called her a prostitute, when she was the Anointed One, the First Witness, the Beloved. She was the embodiment of the Sacred Union, the living heart of Christ’s teaching. She stood where others fled. She understood what the disciples missed. She anointed Him for burial—before any man even understood He would die. She wept, and the Resurrected Word appeared to her first. Not Peter. Not John. Her. And what did the Church do? They called her unclean. They hid her gospels. They twisted her story. They cut her name from the light—and chained her to shame. Because if they had told the truth, they’d have had to admit that Christ walked in Sacred Union with a woman. That the Feminine was not a side story—she was the key. The gate. The presence. The balance. And if they had let that truth live… The whole structure would have collapsed. No more patriarchy disguised as doctrine. No more domination dressed as “order.” No more weaponized shame against women, desire, or power. They couldn’t allow the world to know that God is not just Father. God is also Mother. Bride. Beloved. Womb. So they sanitized the story, Stripped the fire from the feminine, And fed us a gospel that was half a body, Half a truth, Half a God. This is the original spiritual crime— Not the fall of man, But the deletion of woman from the holy narrative. But now the silenced scrolls are whispering again. The erased names are being spoken again. The Magdalene is rising again. This isn’t a revision. This is a reclamation. And she is not asking for a seat at the table. She is the table. The altar. The holy of holies. The flame beside the Word. ✨🙌🏾💫

UPPA RA 🤣
The Mountjoy Helicopter escape took place today 53 years ago. The Provisional IRA rescued three commanders from the prison in broad daylight 🚁 🎃 @jamjgo and myself made this short doc on it. Give it a watch/share. 📺 youtu.be/Qn6NhidXk4o?si=3mJf…

I find it shocking that a journalist and member of the NUJ could attend a wedding and celebrate alongside the very people responsible for death threats against other journalists. But sure, that tells you plenty about the calibre of the Belfast Telegraph/Sunday Life.
