Remembering the night I hung out with #MichaelMadsen a few years ago. A fleeting moment I will always remember. He was great fun, warm, welcoming and engaging. #RIPMichaelMadsen. One of my favourite actors.

This 940-page reconciliation bill has a list of horrific provisions. One of the worst is a $211 billion tax break to the top 0.2% who inherit $30 million. In this bill 16 million lose health care & hungry kids lose nutrition. Meanwhile, billionaires get much richer. Disgusting.

The face of a 52 year old man who’s completed 2 x 2 hour solo gigs. W.R.E.C.K.E.D.

No one should have nuclear weapons.

Fascism in your face.

This is beyond comprehension. What has happened to America?

Making music — even if you aren’t especially good at it — can still be good for you. Music has the power to soothe the mind, promote brain health and bring people closer together, research has shown.

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

I wrote a song!!!!

Who is behind the great rock’n’roll ripoff? How Ticketmaster swallowed the live entertainment scene

Gig tonight. Sunday of a bank holiday. Not a big crowd but boy, loved it! ❤️ Sang so well. Broke out Boys Of Summer, Vienna, Tiny Dancer and I Can’t Fight This Feeling Anymore. Voice was in great shape.

As a voice actor, if you only treat auditions as that, you are doing yourself a disservice; especially if you are not booking. We naturally may hate our voices, but you need to pull up your pants and listen to what you submit. Do you believe your performance? Are you sure?

Pioneer tree species like Birch are spreading out from this Ancient Remnant Old Oak Woodland on the Great Sugar Loaf, Co Wicklow. This is incredibly rare habitat that should naturally cover most of the country. We need to restore, re-establish & reconnect these precious remnants #RestoreNature

New track coming soon....stay tuned...lock down your aerial 📻

As a vocal coach I highly recommend when choosing to learn a song to sing, find live versions of that song. You will find a closer representation of the singers voice here than a studio recorded version, as the distance between their voice & yours will be fairer.

Can you loan us any items for the Pop-Up Pat’s Museum, or drop along to exhibit? Drop us a DM! 🔴⚪️

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result? Demagoguery and corruption.

Peter Grogan! 💚

Spectacular in the sunshine. #irishrainforest

Just over 2 years with this fella and it’s slowly dawning on me he has little to zero understanding of Consequence.

Amazing. We teach our kids to criticise somebody’s actions but never their appearance, yet this is the clown that holds the highest of offices… go figure.

It always flabbergasted me when working for large corporations the insatiable need for “growth” EVERY YEAR. You made insane profits last year! Why do you need to increase that again this year?!?!

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

What a throwback to a point in time.

Rewilding in Westmeath! Many landowners now want to turn forests from non-native monoculture (left) into diverse native (right). Attitudes are shifting, but is public policy shifting with them?

Somebody seriously needs to have a word with America.

The pig.

Beautiful (rare!) Irish rainforest bathed in sunshine 2/4/25. @irishrainforest.bsky.social

Super useful video library to liven up your presentations …

Beautiful Irish rainforest. Calm.

Great podcast for any discerning football fan in Ireland or who has any interest in fan culture.

This aged badly

There are worse things than losing your job, losing your funding, losing your department, or losing your ability to remain an American. You could lose your soul and become complicit.

My politics have evolved to be radically antifascist. It’s literally the foundation for my political beliefs. I don’t believe in the devil, I’m not spiritual, but fascism is deeply evil, and if there is any higher calling for humanity, it is defeating fascism wherever it rises.

"So we're not destroying nature..." Musk is, of course, a barefaced liar. But he represents only the extreme of a basic concept that pervades ALL capitalism: rather than our delicate paradise home, the Earth is just a stockpile of resources to be mined for profit. No idea is more dangerous.

Pam Bondi saying the days of criminals facing no consequences are over whilst working for a 34 time felon who faced no consequences is a bit on the nose.

Today, March 20th, is Rewilding Day. To celebrate, a couple of wild Irish Atlantic rainforest images. Rewilding isn't just the means by which nature loss is reversed: it's how we can reconnect with the natural world, and each other. But Ireland is way behind: let's catch up! 🌍

Fuck Jeff Bezos, don’t shop at Amazon

There is more than enough wealth in this world to completely eradicate poverty however most of that wealth is controlled by a very, VERY small number of people. Think about that.
