Getting told "you must work out" is way more gratifying when you do not in fact, work out.

Local shop in town was celebrating 50 years in business, giving out free 99 ice creams. Told my Dad this, after he saw me with it. 5 minutes later he disappeared, and then arrived back with a newspaper and a 99. 😂

Picked up the last few cows/heifers I was after today. It's a relief to have another one of the big changes ticked off the list. Just a few more pieces of machinery to be sourced now, and hopefully I can get back to having a life then. 😄

I hated it being clean anyway... Yep. I really hated those two days. 🫩

It can be easy for the harder days to outnumber the good days in farming, so you gotta savour the good ones, and they don't come much better than new (to me) tractor day. 😀

Metal Gear Ollie.

Huh, turns out the grass *is* greener on the other side of the fence. I think I owe my cows an apology.

My two jerseys have basically adopted the jersey cross, which I find very cute. 🥺

You know when you've spent months consumed by something every night, and then you finally reach that evening where it's finally sorted, and you can just relax, but have kinda forgotten how to? So yeah, I'm just forlaxing tonight.

I wasn't on the internet yesterday, and it turns out I missed my chance to get mad about something trivial. Just my luck. 😔

Rawdog. Hotdog. Not dog. Top dog.

Gotta be honest, the ice seems like the least concerning part of this.

Cows finally getting to enjoy their first munch on fresh grass this year. They're clearly Doom fans. Just listen to them rip and tear. 😄

Sunday morning. You wake from your slumber, only to find yourself upside down in a bush, with a head like a bag of spanners. We've all been there, bud. 😔

Maybe it's been said already, but a small thing I'm really enjoying about RE Requiem, is how it encourages you to actually use, and have fun with the game's magnum for once. Heads go pop. Caveman brain (Brian) happy.

They chimed in on a shitpost to tell me the game sucks, but it appears my wit went unappreciated. 😢

Watched someone streaming a little of RE9. They scoffed at the yellow labels on breakable wooden crates, then proceeded to miss every single breakable vase, the whole while complaining about the lack of ammo. Absolute cinema. 😂

"Ah, I see Mr. Buckley, this *is* quite the pothole. Now if you'll just jump in for a quick photo, our outlet will be happy to cover this."

Pretty cool Microslop bought some of the world's biggest publishers and franchises right before deciding they've grown tired of Xbox. Yep. Pretty, pretty cool.

An in-game file being locked behind a deluxe edition is sending me. I love Resident Evil, but my god, what a needlessly dumb thing to do. Don't get me wrong, it's trivial, and will be online day 1, but it's a perfect example of dlc that feels like it's taking away, rather than adding. Silly.

In an effort to make more money, I've decided get rid of the workers that make the products I sell. Man, this quarter gonna look so sic!!!

Today, he moved several cows, one by one across an open yard into their birthing pens. He stood in a gateway, letting out cows I wanted, holding those I didn't, on command. Of his own accord, he got in with the newly moved calves, and showed them where to feed. I'm filing this one under burnout.

Lucky little (big) fella. Arrived backwards, and upside down. Two hours of trying to get him out. Didn't think he'd make it tbh, so it felt really good to hear that first roar.

Hands off, Gabriela. Back off from my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh.

The act of admitting when we are wrong is a lost art, and I will not hear otherwise.

Tis a grand soft morn.

Feel like they're all starting to feel more settled and comfortable today. Getting used to the run of the parlour now too. This little jersey cross was the buy of the day. She was the cheapest one I bought, but is already producing 26 litres a day. She's also just the sweetest little thing.

Guy of War.

Here's the first 11 (of what will be 20) new arrivals to the herd. (I wasn't popular at the mart today 😄) This is the first step in making the changes I spent a lot of long nights working towards last year, so tonight is a feel good night. (Forgot to take a better pic when they arrived 🤷)

It's crazy the amount of big streamers that will be banging on about how sick a game looks on their 5090, while the feed looks like this.

Nice little good news story. Her name is Indiana Bones btw, which I feel is impotant. www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2026...

Nioh 3 might scratch that Elden Ring itch, if you got it. The initial open area is big, well designed, full of secrets, and rewarding to explore. First dungeon was very fun. I still dislike the over abundance of loot, especially sorting said loot. The numerous skill trees seem a bit unimaginative.

A few coats of paint may not transform it into a more modern parlour, but holy heck is it now a brighter, happier place to spend 3 hours of my day.

Man, it's hard to fathom taking a dumb joke this seriously.😂 It's not the only instance, or the worst one on this post, or even the worst on my recent shitposts. I like this place. It's got cool people, but there's a small subsect of the most "no craic allowed" feckers that'd melt the head off ya.

Remember to thank a podcaster for the food on your plate. They are the only thing keeping farmers sane.

First calf of the year arrived. He was on his feet in about 30 seconds and his Mam looked as shocked as I was. 😂 Number 2 arrived 30 minutes later.

Getting him a selfie stick was my best idea yet.

Mid nineties Civic hatches are a high water mark for human expression.

Owned this lil nugget for 26 years. 26 years of punishment, and all it ever did was ask for more. It was my first junior rallycross car, and my entryway into most forms of motorsport thereafter, but it's time for someone else to make some great memories in it now. o7

Me, selling "cheap ram" online. You, after recieving your ram.

Today's Irish weather forecast started with yer man going "Here's a picture of a blue sky... because you won't be seeing one any time soon." lol

Man, I'm glad we have indie devs making cool throwback racers. This has Sega rally vibes, but maybe not as flashy. Good campaign, and license tests for the sickos. Plays well, a little simplistic mechanically but very fun. Looks great, sounds...okay. (On sale on PS5 for another few hours)

If I was gen alpha instead of millennial, I would've gone 0.001 faster.

Men only want one thing, and it's for someone to comment on our old tools, so we can say "God, I must have that 20 years, AND it only cost me a tenner!!!"

True story.

Leon... in a Porsche? Feck outta here. That man drives a 1994 Ford Taurus and you can't convince me otherwise. Immersion ruined!

"In Resident Evil Requiem, zombies will continue to carry out tasks from their previous life." Glad this wasn't my doctor.

4 days of power washing off the 4 decades worth of limewash on my milking parlour walls. I hate limewash. I hate limestone. I hate Mother Earth for spawning this accursed stone! Should look nice when painted at least. Fecking well better lol.

Best bookmark you'll make all year.
