A play on an Ale Flip, with strong porter, ginger beer, a beaten egg, brown sugar, hot honey, and caraway seeds ...

Edmonton’s Padmanadi served superb panasian vegan food. This is their gado gado and beef rendang. The latter was the most realistic fake meat I’ve ever had, also intensely flavoured and moist.

Anne Frank & Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. were born in 1929. Viola Fletcher, who just died this week, was already 15 when they were born. But while we were just with Ms. Fletcher days ago, Anne Frank & Dr King are portrayed as ancient history. Remember, "The past is never dead. It's not even past.”

Every year I order Stoutzilla at this time and their special barrel aged brew. Last year it was Stoutzilla barrel aged in cognac casks, this year it’s King Conka barrel aged in rum casks. The Stoutzilla cans will be sampled this weekend, but I’ll be saving King Conka for Christmas 🎅🏼 #Beer #Unbarred

The Trumpetfish is such a ridiculous looking creature, they always make me smile. They are masters of color change as well, shading from brown, reddish, orange, and bright yellow. They often drift head-down like this, especially when hanging out in clumps of soft coral. 🦑 #scuba #diving #oceans

The rules of the road in Ireland say you have to leave the outside lane if you are not overtaking. This as written would make the inside lane too full and cause traffic jams.

The situation with school places for kids with additional needs in Ireland is a moral calamity. Parents who already have so much going on forced to do tons of assessments & applications, then insufficient home tutoring & suing HSE in high court when they can't get places. Shame on us #spéirgorm

Just found a newspaper from 2002, which was given to me the day my youngest was born by the hospital as a keepsake. The paper cost 35 cents. Below the fold was an article about Gaza. It was about a terror attack inside Israel committed by Hamas. This has been happening for 8 decades.

And the perfect beer for smoked sausage lovers who are now vegetarian.

Maybe the next generation will set its sights on solving systemic problems instead of “My burrito is at a restaurant, but I’m all cozy here so, can a guy with a medical degree from another country bring it to me.” We’ve got that covered, and then some.

Guten Morgen! (Hemsedal, Norwegen, Sommer 2025)

Bean Garda has been banned in Ireland however.

When do Irish words become English language words? When they are in the English dictionary? The BBC style guide says not to use Garda but to use an English word. But garda is in my English dictionary www.bbc.co.uk/newsstylegui...

Palestine Action were close to getting their proscription lifted so their panel of judges have been replaced by pro-government and Zionist judges. Not very subtle, is it?

Hume's Leaf Warbler was showing and calling well at Sandwich Bay Bird Observatory.

There was a time when the United States looked down its nose at the countries in South America for being lawless banana republics. Who's the banana republic now, bitches?

On this day 49 years ago, #SexPistols released their debut single, "Anarchy in the U.K." Released as 7″ only, and originally in a plain black sleeve, before being reissued in a standard #EMI sleeve after initial copies mis-credited production of the b-side to Chris Thomas instead of Dave Goodman.

This is the thing to hang onto - I’m glad people are appalled by Farage’s Nazi sympathies now, but the fact is, he was able to present TV programmes and constantly appear as a sofa guest for decades, booked by people who knew it all. We must reckon with that.

@rte.ie has just published an excerpt from Irish STEM Lives, the latest title in the @dib.ie series from the RIA: www.rte.ie/culture/2025... The collection, edited by Turlough O’Riordan and Jane Grimson, highlights the extraordinary achievements of Ireland’s natural philosophers, engineers and more

Trump claims no murders in D.C. for the last six months at the Turkey pardon. There have been 56.

Today, I shall be mostly getting angry about the company policy that ends "a human will always be involved in the narration and creation of the Audio Book." See if you can spot the various ways this will be used to maximise profits that will not be shared with the author.

Why has it taken me so long to try this? #Bskybeer

Finback Brewery from Queens, New York is probably one of my favourite breweries. I don't get to have it that much, so it's always a treat when they can be bought in the UK. If I ever make it back to the US, a trip to one of their taprooms is a must. #BskyBeer

I think I want to make a beef bourguignon over the holidays. Anyone have a favorite recipe that isn't five hours long?

It's like Chrimbo in a glass! #Bskybeer

Really important decision for the rights of gay people, who are EU citizens, moving around the EU and seeking to ensure their marriage in one Member State is recognised in another. Notably more weight placed on citizenship rights than in the AG Opinion: curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/...

Writers, there are SO MANY unique ways for your characters to have side effects or overdoses from medications, compounds, and the natural world. Don’t just make stuff up. Ask your friendly neighborhood doc/toxicologist for ideas to add some flair and realism #writing #scriptsky #gamedev #booksky

The only thing that might get me to buy the Sunday Independent is if they did a full spread on Ireland's 15 least sympathetic households (who just happen to be the Dartmouth Sq residents who are objecting to the Metro being built).

Do you definitely hope the unnamed recipient is well, though? Maybe *well, but not very well*, at least.

Trump just ended a rule limiting a type of pollution that causes heart and lung disease. The rule was expected to save thousands of American lives every year.
