hey quick question does Goliath win in that story

"Suggests".. lol. In this history of economics, tariffs have never, ever, not increased prices for the countries imposing them.

Home economics: Can I lend money to my daughter to help her buy a home, and what are the tax implications? www.independent.ie/business/mon...

I've been away for a bit trying to see if the other thing would redeem itself. It's got worse since the Orange T.

Home economics: My husband wants a separation – could he sell the house from under me and the kids? www.independent.ie/business/mon...

Do rugby players deliberately go to a back street barber that nobody normal would ever allow at them? #askingforafriend #ulavmun

Always makes me laugh. #xmasdecorations

There's an age where the 12 pubs of Christmas seemed like ikea penance rather than a pleasure. What age?

It's the most wonderful time of the year..... My favourite trip to @dublinairport.bsky.social every year! 😍

It will be fascinating to see how Revolut manages to navigate MARP. It's what's keeping foreign lenders away.

My husband is off for root canal work this afternoon. I told him I hoped it wouldn't be too painful. He replied that the most painful bit was emptying his wallet afterwards.

Sorry I put aviator sunglasses on the baby Jesus in your nativity scene and started singing “Highway to the manger zone.”

😬. In cooking parlance, he's toast.

TD overboard and we're still weeks away from a Government.

It sounds so hopeful. 👏🤞

Ahem ...

That Munster kit looks like a mammy forgot to buy the persil and chucked it in the cheap shit detergent & it bled out in the wash. #MUNvSFP

Sinéad Ryan: Our complex voting system may be long and drawn-out, but it’s the most fun www.independent.ie/irish-news/e...

JOSEPH: got any rooms INNKEEPER: no JOSEPH: i want to see your manager INNKEEPER: okay but i think it’s pronounced “manger”

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this: Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius. If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.

Either Danny Healy Rae has announced a major policy shift or the automatic captions programme misheard "and we're proud of Kilgarvin"

Oh dear.

FF/FG only need 1 prop given the final seat tally. I'd say they'll pick 2 or 3 indies just to be safe in majority. #ge24

Images of men boarding busses at Dublin Airport is not evidence of an 'invasion', as some social media posts suggest. The photos show seasonal workers coming from Slovakia to work on a turkey farm ahead of Christmas. www.thejournal.ie/immigrants-a...

Twitter's finest moment.

Posting with a random bloke from Florida who @katiehannon.bsky.social mistook for @mcculld.bsky.social ... Honestly I'm so happy. It's like old Twitter before El*n ruined it. 🤩

Erm ... do you like Bruce Springsteen? It might sound like a random Q but it really really matters to @mcculld.bsky.social

Sincere apologies Florida David! In my defence we were nearly 14 hours into rolling election coverage and I was about 70% caffeine at time of posting. To all your new Irish followers it’s @mcculld.bsky.social you want.

Genuinely sorry to see Malcolm Noonan lose his seat. A massive supporter of our built heritage he'll be a loss in the architectural community. Had him on my radio show a few times, always a passionate voice. #ge24

Sports?! SPORTS??! It's an ELECTION! Who cares about ball sports? 🤓🤨

What a stunning day. 1st December!!

Marriage is all about compromise: I'm allowed read all the papers & scroll election updates but only if Vivaldi is playing on spotify and not, sadly, two radios tuned to news stations.

So, Eoin Ó Broin has only transferred 110 votes of his surplus to Eoin Ó Broin. Poor vote management there from The Eoin Ó Broin Party in #DMW #GE24 #GE2024

The 12 scams of Christmas: how to avoid this year’s festive fraudsters www.independent.ie/business/per...

Game over. A bit of luck in the end. Expect Farrell will have a few words before Lions taming. #IREVAUS

Super try #IREVAUS

You'd miss Rob at 15 in fairness. #IREVAUS

If we lose, those shirts will have to take their share of the blame. #IREVAUS

Yizzer made yer choice. Swivel devices like the rest of us .. *grumbles about having no match ticket

Patrick O'Donovan's donut is great craic. Delira with themselves on de telly 🤣 #ge24

Michael McNamara's hair deserves its own vote. #ge24

Sherlock chases the Monk - newly discovered Conan Doyle none of us were expecting.

Now I have to add the rugby to my device screens. It's a stressful day! Game on. #ge24 #irevaus

More Boxes Opened on #DublinBayNorth #GE24 tally. Worth explicitly saying that the Far Right Candidates are in Joke Candidate territory. Immigration issue overplay the worst collective editorial misstep in years from media. They were just so excited by some local racism, like abroad.

Haven't blocked a single person on this platform (& I do it v rarely) but it's working overtime on the other place today 😂 ... mainly because *most* voters are not, it turns out, anti-everything! #ge24

Every Irish election.
