Not sure if best or worst combination of teddies to leave on my child’s pillow #StarTrek #ParentingDoneRight

thought it would be funny to watch some Roadrunner cartoons on acid but ten seconds in we're all silent out front of the tv, awed by the desolate beauty of these desert landscapes and struck by the emptiness of the world. should these two lone living souls not seek solace in one another

Does anyone know if it's possible to set a negative timestamp in a #git commit? Have an idea for a project showing how a document has changed over time but the first version is from 1937 (Bonus points if that's enough information for you to guess the document)

IDIOT DOOM SPIRAL - Word on the street is you went around the local hostel telling people that you're a police officer and that it would be *really* fucked up if you shot yourself in the head right in front of them. That's pretty high concept, if you ask me.

if you’re gonna invite Caitlyn Jenner, you could’ve at least had her drive the president’s motorcade

If you attended an Irish 3rd level institution you have 2 days to register at seanadvoter.ie to be on the register to vote in the new 6 seat constituency. 2 more days.

I was having a pretty good day before I got the news that Jean Marie Le Pen had died. Now have I’m have a fucking incredible day

"New York needs a straight shooter."

By the year 2173, no-one will even remember _why_ we celebrate St Enoch's Day (the start of each school term) with a ceremonial procession of Garda vans from Westmeath to Mountjoy.

How to sell a laminator online. I like the "Very powerful. Use with care"

Massive celebrations sweep across Syria as the nation ushers in 2025, marking the start of a new era free from the former Assad regime. This footage captures the jubilant atmosphere in Damascus.

The "Did Jimmy Carter Die Today" bot author used the wrong timezone and declared he wasn't dead today at 6AM lmao

I don't think that Hamas' liberal supporters overseas know that this movement burned cinemas in Gaza in the early 1990s, preventing their re-opening to this day, or that it rejects the idea of a civil state / An anonymous Palestinian from Gaza www.haaretz.com/opinion/2024...

Been a long time since an article so perfectly encapsulated how I feel. Once again @patrickfreyne.bsky.social has knocked it out of the park. A wonderfully average job! #speirgorm #burnout

This truth serum is delicious you ugly piece of shit

people say “you need to start living in the real world” but they forget that the real world includes lupines and lightning bugs and ginger beer and starlight and sea coasts and Renoir paintings and Rachmaninoff’s piano concertos and fog banks and foxes playing in snow.

And when they do row back on it it’s still going to be incredibly disappointing watching people flock back to them. They’ve shown who they are, but will people believe them?

Oops, looks like the Irish Times have accidentally elected the wrong Eoin Ó Broin in Dublin Mid West #ge24 Congratulations to @social-democrats.bsky.social I guess

I'm gathering together links to spreadsheets from constituency tallies for #GE24 here: shorturl.at/VPIzN Please respond with any Google Sheets/Excel links that you come across. Tally folk of Ireland assemble! Happy political Xmas to all those who celebrate.

Did you know? Black Friday is named in honor of Rebecca Black, who invented Friday in 2011.

I love an Irish General election. You can keep Jake Tapper striding through a VR map like a Colossus. I don't want Wolf Blitzer using a touchscreen to show voter turnout. Give me a frazzled RTE reporter coming live from a playschool in Offaly watching votes being added with a pencil for two weeks.

Good to know our democracy is in safe hands and that such close attention to detail is being paid #ge24 #speirgorm

I have no idea what possessed me to make this

Whoever is arguing that Ireland needs its own Joe Rogan has clearly never been to a pub. Every pub has one. He's always there and the rest of us try to avoid eye contact lest he tries to start a conversation.

The StringBuffer library by @simonreynolds.ie is a perfect example of an #fsharp computation expression that is easy to use and greatly simplifies the code needed to dynamically append text. This project deserves more GitHub stars: github.com/simon-reynol...

Someone just opened an issue on an open source library I maintain just to say thanks for making it and that has just put the biggest smile on my face

Had a thought earlier and wanted to see what #speirgorm thinks ahead of #GE24: Does the "Ireland is full" crowd think the famine was a good thing? They say the country is full when there's about 7.1 million on the entire island. Still less than before the famine

Finding out that Lake Superior "Never gives up its dead" because it's so cold that the colonies of bacteria that decompose corpses can't survive in it so those bodies never fill up with gas and surface, all because I looked up the lyrics of a 1976 folk song, is what the internet should be more like.
