Loving Simon and Garfunkel on BBC4.

Current events confirm the achieved wisdom of time-honored classics in the social sciences.

Post a banger, not in English. Nearly 40 years listening to this one. And France, shes also got it. youtu.be/lgHGU8gqz9U?...

Love how Patrick’s final point is basically “I know you’re reading this Collision, cop on for yourself”

Not missing out on our share of the Northern lights spectacular show in East Cork

I would encourage anyone concerned to do the same as @eibhear.gibiris.org below. If your children are attending ETB managed schools, you could also contact [email protected] and the Child Protection section of the individual ETB. The Cork address is [email protected] #Speirgorm

I've signed this petition calling for the government to shut down X for producing sexual abuse images. Will you do the same? my.uplift.ie/petitions/sh... @uplift.ie

Perfect analogy. The business formerly known as Twitter is a private organisation- National governments don’t owe him their patronage. Wish @gov.ie and @michealmartintd.bsky.social could show leadership and take a stand on this. It will serve their legacy better to do so

Why I give up on so many podcasts…

Sounds right

Never thought I’d give SF a vote since I started voting in 1990, but in recent times when I thought there may be an alliance of the left, I considered it. Anyway normal service has resumed.

Plenty of Irish girls of my generation will know what “you’re a fine girl” or “you’ve such a pretty face” really mean

Poor kids should be brought over to #TheLateLateToyShow in Ireland next year to make up for suffering through this

One of my cousins gave me a mixtape when I stayed with them in London in 1990 . It had everything from The Pixies to The Sundays and The House of Love on it. I was just finished my first year of college and it had a huge influence on my taste in music.

Wow.

The amount of tax-payer money that these same people have handed to greyhound racing in the last few years would pay for this hospice for children with life-limiting conditions. The existence of one is contingent on private charity, the other has it's existence guaranteed by the state. Priorities.

Yay 🙌🏼

And they are trying to build confidence in screening programmes 🤷🏻‍♀️…If An Post can’t guarantee return, samples should be registered or couriered #spéirghorm

Catherine Connolly never bows in front of the altar after doing a reading AND she doesn’t genuflect going into her pew either #SmearTheBejaysus #SmearTheBejaysis #speirghorm

They’ll tell you that the arts & humanities aren’t practical and then …

Big shock as I was about to hit the hay. Now Ill be here hitting refresh for the next half hour #aras #speirghoirm #notGavinNewsom

“It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman. That’s why there are so many of us.” ― Jane Goodall 💙 RIP to a real one. My childhood hero

What I think is a newtlet in my dog’s outside bowl this morning. First time Ive spotted one - hopefully safe in the long wet grass now, well away from my curious pup #irishnature #spéirghorm

Very sorry to read this - his warm voice and lovely humour will be missed from Arena - he had a wonderful rapport with contributors to the show.

Books and cats. If Id known about this when I visited Vancouver years ago Id have made my way to Seattle

They played Babies. That’s me happy #Glastonbury #Pulp

I went from Florist to Actor to Zoologist as as a young child but never really had a passion. Thought about Catering l. Ended up a Food scientist. Loved some of my jobs but often wish I had studied English and History

Cork should have had this years ago. We used the river ferry in Copenhagen last year- very little infrastructure required and it was a great way to visit parts of the city Great to have another option for commuters. #spéirghorm

Music is joy! #AGoodPlace Source: www.reddit.com/r/MadeMeSmil...

Thanks to Finian Murphy for writing this piece in today's Irish Examiner calling on men - especially 'centrist Dads' - to take on the manosphere. Look at all the positive role models out there for our boys. www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

Belvelly castle wearing the green for the weekend that’s in it ☘️ #EastCork #spéirghorm #LáFhéilePádraig

Trying to figure out why the #spéirghorm tag is used here.

This is extraordinary

#SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦 Trump and Vance are horrific What the hell has happened to the US?

Picked a good day to get back in the water after bad weather/bad cold kept me away for a few weeks #sweatysanctuary #EastCork #spéirghorm

Can I just add that I really want to see Carrie Crowley play Verona Murphy in 'Game of Dáil Seats' where the entire film is as Gaeilge apart from Murphy's dialogue which is as Béarla but with subtitles as Gaeilge. #SpéirGhorm. #IrishPolitics #IrishArts

Calm and chilly after a wet and windy morning- Claycastle beach, Youghal

One of the choices on the current cocktail menu in Cask last night. Sadly I Fart In Your General Direction was not on offer - maybe next time #CaskCork

Cancelling Sky via their Chat function is pure torture. Fifteen years a customer and it feels like I’m long waiting for each reply 🤬

Me too Louise

A lot of people saying RBB had the best night but I find him too blustery and belligerent. He won’t work well with other leaders over a long period. That said the overly polished spiels from PT, MM and SH at the end was worse #ge24 #RTEUpfront

✨Little reminder that Aontu exists because Peadar Tóibín resigned from Sinn Fein because of its support for Repeal. They want to seriously curtail women’s access to abortion, and would overturn repeal if they could.✨

Hannon is finally bringing in the other 7. Very little of substance so far - main takeaway is Harris is tetchy and defensive under pressure #ge24 #rteUpfront
