Nice

Happy Christmas! 🎄🎄🎄

After another trip to A&E on Christmas Eve (all fine) where every staff member was brilliant, smiling, gave my son a lollipop, a selection box and toys (apparently donated by the Belfast Giants) once again: the staff at the Royal deserve everything ❣️

So excited that the Internet has discovered the best kid's book

George Osbourne joining OpenAI after ruining the country and editing the Evening Standard. Hope you succeed George!

Getting out of conscription because you live in Northern Ireland

Just a reminder that at least 600 Americans were fired for failing to show sufficient respect after Charlie Kirk's murder.

Really enjoyed this Substack rant about cosmetic surgery and why I want to hurl every time I hear someone talk about "girl's girls."

Made cookies with the wee man

I'm not a "everything was fine before 2016" person and I get why people voted leave but it is very funny how nobody wants to address the giant 2016 elephant in the room

Today is the day I discover that Liam Neeson has stans

transgender for every member of your family!!!

Wee man home after two days in the hospital. Staff at the Royal deserve the world.

Wee man has to go into hospital for a viral wheeze. He'll be grand but my goodness the place is rammed with kids with flu. The staff are absolute heroes.

The discussion about influencers and the decline of influencer marketing is interesting because I now actively avoid buying anything "viral."

You gotta love the Sunday Life. Every week they're like Exclusive: Top Drug Dealer, "Hula Hoop," on the run after getting kicked out of local estate by "Big Jez."

Make her Queen of England - NOW

No Roman Emperor ever got to taste a spicebag so ultimately I am confident I eat better than every single one of them and that's why they're all dead

He received the what

The Iranian guy on Question Time is officially more informed than most people in England

I sold this photo to MI5 for £1000 according to trusted local Citizen Journalists

Got papped by @brendanjharkin.bsky.social coming out of court the other day

Scenes outside the court today. People waiting on the decision on the council flag decision.

City Council should focus less on international politics and more on local issues imo but having a shitfit over said international politics is way more embarrassing

Choosing to find this hilarious instead of depressing. Proper "Stalin would be loving this."

Your boyfriend tells Susie Dent that she absolutely nailed her word of the day

I thought this was fake news guys

The trees are going up EARLY this year aren't they

My grumpy socialist dad was a lawyer and I like arguing

I hate to report that discourse on this is still happening and we live alongside people who would begrudge a tired mum space to get a nap in the morning.

this week's newsletter is titled "aren't you tired of feeling insane all the time?" and I think it speaks for itself it is also free to read youngvulgarian.substack.com/p/arent-you-...

Everyone responding to this sounds like my presbyterian grandma, "Awful good to yourself, aren't you?" You're miserable but at least you feel morally righteous and you'll get your reward in heaven one day. Boring, miserable people.

Important: Jonathan Bailey is reading a CBeebies Bedtime Story today.

VERY funny that Labour are being pointlessly cruel and haemorrhaging support from their base and yet none of what they're offering is ever going to be enough for the people whose approval they're seeking, WHO could have predicted it

My wee man was three yesterday! My house is full of dinosaurs!

Apparently schools shouldn't be telling kids to be nice to LGBT people because that's indoctrination but god forbid the highest court in the land points out that shoving religion down people's throats amounts to actual indoctrination.

Went to the Lyric last night to see Sam and Fintan argue for and against a united Ireland (before switching sides). Really enjoyed it. Was great to watch a respectful, informed debate that didn't take itself too seriously

math textbook covers for some reason:

Coward

It’s a strong look

You will definitely end up in the next iteration of the "funny things Irish people said about what someone wore" thread.

If I buy this hat will people think I'm about to defend Stalingrad

What is the charge? Eating a fifteen? A succulent little caramel square?

he did what

i aint seen deep throat blow a load like this since watergate

Bill Clinton seems like the kind of guy who reacts to all his sex scandals with “still got it”

Having a mad one tonight lads

People who work in hospitality and retail should be paid as highly as lawyers

Somehow UK governments seem to have decided that political leadership is best demonstrated by a series of leaks to newspapers which are then denied, and daily ministerial media rounds of denial in support of grid announcements nobody notices.

Went to a cool event this evening where I had the privilege of being the first person to tuck into the free cheeseboard while everyone else was polite
