I think I saw a werewolf just about to pop in the Liberties this evening

Emerging into the new year like my cat Baldur Buathach 🖤

I was rewatching Interstellar last night and realised it was it was a poignant pick for the anniversary of the night my Dad died, 8 years ago

I wonder if Jesus is annoyed that his birthday cake is a fruitcake no one likes.

One cat a leaping

An old favourite for Christmas Eve and #WyrdWednesday. According to a little practised Flemish superstition, you'll have the power to recognise witches if you go to an intersection on Christmas Eve with a black chicken on your head. 🎨Heather Murray

Magnificent thread.

“The earth makes a sound as of sighs and the last drops fall from the emptied cloudless sky. A small boy, stretching out his hands and looking up at the blue sky, asked his mother how such a thing was possible. Fuck off, she said.” -Samuel Beckett, Company

Nothing my dog likes more than a new bone left outside in the rain overnight to marinate

Remember, Beckett is for life, not just for Christmas

Amongst the Christmas chaos I heard a child on the street ask his mother where they were going, ‘Nowhere ’ she answered

Fox-hunting is cruel, hateful, and a colonial imposition. Especially disappointed at the supposed party of Irish republicanism for voting in favour of flagrant West Brittery. #spéirghorm #ireland

The is a taxi driver in Ballaghadereen called Abdul. But locals call him Abdul Abhaile. (“ag dul abhaile”is Irish for “going home”)

The situation is dire. We need to help Tamer, Samer, and their families survive. They are running out of food and facing starvation. Please consider donating and sharing this. Every bit helps. gofund.me/c66957df5

Artists having to protest outside the Dáil to save The Complex studios/gallery and the fox hunting ban bill defeated, just a day it’s hard to keep the faith

Reading at this spoken word event at the Kirkos space, Little Green street Dublin City centre at 7pm, curated by Yağmur Akyürek!

This morning’s mist

Since I don’t have immediate family anymore, December has really drifted into a kind of ghostly, melancholy time, which I think maybe it always was underneath, the ghosts of family past

Me, lying to myself

Those spam calls from the UK are nonstop

Alright that's it! I'm doing it! I'm doing the James Connolly totes! Gets yours here: selkiesstudio.com/shop/connolly-tote

I wrote about The Complex’s first experience of eviction in this paper. In the years since they have clearly embedded themselves in this area of the city and contributed to its vibrancy. We need to protect cultural institutions onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

This is devastating news (Ormond studios getting evicted too). Please sign!

completely agree with the below!! for those who aren't aware yet, flypost.ie was set up for this very reason, offering a community events calendar so people can keep track of gigs, protests, events, etc. without having to rely on a meta platform to see what's happening around ireland

80% of British media spends all day everyday calling trans people predators and freaks, and the remaining 20% say tsk tsk that's a bit much while still arguing they should be banned from even having a fucking hobby and, honestly, would it be so hard for them to just piss before they leave the house?

There's loads of Irish book shops out there who'll get stuff to you pretty much as fast as the other gaff - maybe they're run by heinous scumbags too but I'd doubt they make anywhere near as scummy an impact on the world www.kennys.ie www.easons.com chaptersbookstore.com www.dubraybooks.ie
