Nerdy observation... But I like the new RTÉ idents this year youtu.be/CBs1KbbKKgc?... This recreation on YT highlights the Donal Abú tuning signal of the 1930s Raidió Éireann and I think the voice of Dúbhglas de hÍde speaking on an earlier 1926 2RN broadcast. #Spéirghorm

My coffee grinder broke 😭 Initially just clogged up with a broken adjustment wheel. Managed to get working again and tested. But during reassembly a soldered wire snapped off. Guess I now need to learn how to solder 🥴

40mins to midnight and I'm scrolling marketplace to spend my staff discount before it expires at midnight

Idir an dhá Nollaig, I've slipped into a new game. Subway Builder has consumed at least 2 days :/

I dont consider my bathrooms clean until they smell like a 90s public swimming pool and I'm light headed from the fumes.

He'd prefer if I just went to bed

Commuting to work in Aerlingus is more reliable than Dublin Bus F1

Powers restored etc.

Won in Cavan, so that's 17M, cash, on top of the communion, confirmation and that one time local gaa club lotto winnings. Never to be spent

The National Lottery has confirmed that the winning €17m EuroMillions ticket from Friday was sold in Cavan

Christmas Party Season starts this weekend with Savory and Sweet Pastries

Can't sleep. Experimenting with trek over melatonin gummies

None of these buses arrived on schedule or have real-time. What a fucking joke. DoT (or whatever cobbled together department is now) -> NTA -> TFI (offical languages act hello?) -> Bus operators. So many layers of bureaucracy shite to run a bus service that doesn't even work.

Something Something EU ❤️ Mercosur

F1 bus was a no show as usual so I dipped into the deli to pickup a cultural institution, the humble chicken filet roll. Long queue with many having the same idea - So #Spéirghorm what's on your chicken filet roll? Are you spicy or plain? Butter? Mayo? Taco? Salad to make it healthy?

Much like there is American Exceptionism, exists Free State Exceptionism Having grown up in a family with mothers half north east of the island, I've learned our lived experience here is often radically different. It's all well good saying forgive, forget, move on, but we didn't live through it.

Posting to #Spéirghorm has me self doubt if there's a séimhiú or not on the G. Even if I know better #Gramadach

Winter holiday plans are quickly filled with "omg let's go for drinks" by friends coming home to Ireland for the few days you've to yourself. While great to see faces.... Bitch I've been here all year 🤪

Meanwhile there was an "incident" in the propagating

I've my doubts

I loved this film and this scene as a child But now when I look at it I think - I work in the industry that makes that voice interface happen and it's yet another example of star trek influencing technological advancement. This film also ignited my love affair with San Francisco 🌁

These new bus stops for the F1 etc on Stephen's Green arnt half the craic as the old 49 ones on College Green/Dame St.

I only went into Golden Discs to look and maybe buy just one. But who can say no to CMAT and Kneecap's Tricolour Vinyl 🇮🇪 This is becoming an expensive hobby #Spéirghorm

Ag fanacht ar yer wan Gaga i mBarcelona

I'd rather not RTÉ. Saw enough during the ads of #TraitorsIRL

Well now. She has secured one vote at least. So she has now #spéirghorm #áras25

"Your order has shipped. Your delivery is with Evri...." Well I suppose that's that. I tried

Like to think they cut the Olé Olé Olé cheering before it got to the Uh Ah ... verse #TraitorsIRL

Imagine RTÉ decided to just air the Walsh Sisters instead of the #TraitorsIRL finale tonight

Oyin may come through those doors and just nonchalantly it's Nick and Ben and we all move on

Well now. I survived driving around the walkinstown roundabout twice tonight.

On the hunt for some lighter TV after some regulars finished up... dipping into #GBBO , which isn't as lively as expected on bsky compared to #TraitorsIRL

Ah this is cruel #TraitorsIRL

Surely they're not going to take her away from the breakfast.... was there another hug of death? .... have RTÉ tricked us?! All the questions #TraitorsIRL

The Girlfriend on Prime Video Like did they do any research on London or Londeners? A layover in Heathrow even? Maybe Luton? Like fuck me. This is terrible. And I've only worked there as a (aerbrige) commuter

A series of bad bus commutes and missed connections is really driving me to consider getting a car of my own. City parking fees be damned

Just watched the last two episodes of #TraitorsIRL back to back. That was some run of dramatic television! Shonda Rhimes couldn't write those twists

Things to find in a millennial nursing home: Miley Cyrus music videos

Accidently bought a fucking White Claw. Disgusted. 😭

As I try not get mowed down on Wicklow St, I wonder what if Brown Thomas carpark wasn't a car park 🤔

Who isn't running for President these days. I've a couple of weeks PTO saved up - maybe I'll give it a go

Does the winner of this #TraitorsIRL vote also get an #Áras25 nomination ?

They may hope there's no more gaeilge ahead of them #TraitorsIRL Slán Niall

What's nice about #TraitorsIRL is that unlike the other English language versions I've watched, there's a fair amount of our own culture and language (Irish and Hiberno-English) nuances baked into it, so much the export version may need a bit of an explainer on the details.

So here we go #TraitorsIRL

Finally one weekend project finished... now if only my paid weekday ones would progress just a little

🔥 And I read that in her accent

Sometimes wereally need to park whatever fashion trend is in. There's no need to be out on your night run in your GAA kit, Socks n' Birkenstocks.

In the middle of this whole Oasis madness that has gripped the country - I'll just put it out there that I like Blur

I think we're all OK with that
