Im a lonely desolate speck in a backwater on the outer rim. Much like real life.

This is the trailer and it’s such a spoof and very well done :) Sam Neil doing the voice over and first time we’ve seen Tauntauns since Empire strikes back.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Maybe the newly unemployed Morgan McSweeney can return to Ireland and turn around the fortunes of the Labour Party here, as he did their UK counterparts in the last election? With a different outcome of course.

Name checking John Boyne as a friend and someone who stood up for him. You can tell a lot about someone by the company they keep alright

Tubridy on with Miriam O Callaghan on radio one. They really are determined to get that lad back in everyone’s good graces aren’t they?

Floor done. Except them two in front of the fridge and washing machine which have massive squeaks when you stand on them cos I didn’t take them out to lay the bloody thing so they don’t click in fully. It can wait cos I’m in a heap after that and washing machines in particular weigh a ton

This is amazing. Gwan Ian

This is an amazing read. Terry saw what was going to happen with misinformation and the malign use the internet would be put to, and saw it while it was still in a larval state. He saw it in 1995. Take a few minutes and read this. #Spéirghorm

Put down a new floor, I said. Taking up them tiles will be easy, I said. Past me is a dope who present me doesn’t like at all. Not one bit.

“The era of hiding behind servers is over”.

irish government to require all pedestrians and cyclists to dress like this so that drivers will maybe look at them

Graham Linehan is testifying in the Judiciary Committee on "free speech."Naturally, he argues that in order to have "free speech," society must get rid of trans people.

The Brits haven’t had a prime minister serve a full term since David Cameron, and even he resigned just before his term ended. 5 PMs in ten years. (All of them awful) and we’re can’t get rid of the two head da balls we have (also awful)

When you next hear a billionaire screaming at you that trans people are a “danger to women and girls”, just remember who’s in the Epstein files. Trans people: zero. Billionaires: all of them.

There’s really bad timing to come out and try and say you weren’t a creepy manipulative sex abuser of young women and then there’s Neil Gaiman timing. Of all the weeks he chose this one. And just sets about digging the hole even deeper. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

So funny for him to travel down to Enniscorthy just to be like 'now of course as you know, I can't do anything about this'

@mrjamesob.bsky.social a notable name who never shuts up about ‘protecting women and girls’ is of course complicit in enabling the scumbag and his carry on.

Would take an Irishman to bring the breakfast roll to Westeros 🤣 this show is just fantastic. They nailed this casting and the chemistry between the two lads is so natural and it’s funny af. Don’t sleep on it. #KnightoftheSevenKingdoms

Countertops wrapped. Nightmare to do. Got a few long creases couldn’t get out. Happy accident-if you get a cup with a flat bottom and put boiling water in it, put it on the creases and it irons them out totally. Doing the floor next. Dreading it. Go over the tiles or smash them up? Ugh

Can’t believe they released the Epstein files to cover up for the Melania movie.

Showing my age but I loved this show..

I REQUIRE A TUG

This is Fine Gaels mantra.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Sunset is right now, 5pm. So it’s officially grand stretch after today.

Kneecap will release their new album 'FENIAN' on April 24th. "We're using it to name everyone speaking truth to power..." www.clashmusic.com/news/kneecap...

Knight of the Seven Kingdoms off to a great start. Both the leads are really likeable and have a great chemistry. The main guys Irish accent is distracting at first but it’s genuine. It’s funny too and beautifully made. Low stakes cosy watch. Well, so far. Looking forward to next week.

Ejector seats. You can highlight the seat on a screen where the spa playing videos on his phone is sitting and eject him off the bus. I’ll have me €15,000 now thank you.

Only 2000 signatures needed now for Ireland to pass the threshold. We're at 70%, France is at 300%!! For gawds sake. C'mon #speirgorm we can do better than France! Don't just share on the socials, send direct what's app, message, get the phone out at break time. ✊ 🇵🇸 🇮🇪 #JusticeForPalestine

DIY learnings. Bought tile paint. Tile paint didn’t do what it said in the tin and wouldn’t stick to tiles and came off with a light rub of a scrubbing pad-waited 24 hours to give it more than enough time. It did stick to the grout though so accidental Wes Anderson kitchen is a go :)

Nine years to the day since Graham Linehan foresaw his own fate.

Has anyone ever written about the butterfly effect of trying to do one small diy job in the home, which opens up ten other really small but vital jobs that have to happen before the main one can? Someone should. It’s like a load of side quests in a game you can’t get out of now you’ve started it

Come on, #Ireland. A million signatures are needed. Share with your people, too. #SpéirGhorm

After finding a big bag of weed outside tk max in the ilac. The only stoner in my life is on holiday in Thailand. Anyone want it?

You really need to read this whole thread/song Colin put together. Incredible stuff.

Ah cool. Little fungis to be with

Seen in Belfast Report Fenian activity Call the Fenian hotline today 0800 955 1916 I wonder who this could possibly be? 😝 the message when you ring up is gas #Spéirghorm

About to paint the kitchen presses and stressing over what clothes to sacrifice to the task..

SF raises this at Leaders’ Questions today - Simon Harris says “due process” is to allow the board of Bord Bia itself to make a decision about the chair’s future Pearse Doherty in reply says under the law, the board doesn’t have the authority to remove a chair - the minister does
