This man spake the truth!

A bit misty but still lovely and silvery tonight

Ever since I was a little girl, I knew that I wanted to answer 275 emails per day and argue with administrators. That’s why I chose a career in academia.

A fantastic day at the Alzheimer Society of Ireland @drni.bsky.social HRB Brain Health and Dementia Research Day at the Civic Theatre in Tallaght. Wonderful talks and great panel discussions, with a very informed and engaged audience of experts - huge congratulations to all, a brilliant event!

It never ceases to confound me just how many folks think the point of essays is to provide teachers with essays. That teachers just like, collect them, or need them for sustenance or something. Rather than the point of them being the *actual fucking act of learning how to think about shit*

@auralnauts.bsky.social !!!

Khusanov is such a cult figure already, in the mould of the Dunnie Monster. Easy to see why the fans adore him, especially after his rocky start. He's becoming a Rolls Royce, he's learning composure but losing none of his clattering ability #mcfc

@railusersie.bsky.social 16.59 Maynooth to Connolly delayed at Clonsilla, driver says they're awaiting gardai to remove a passenger

Saving a lot of time these days using AI to do the crossword for me - it's brilliant! 😀

An Irish #painting. "Kilkenny Field" came out of a day where much of it was spent cycling along by the River Barrow. There was sunshine. There was scenery. There was happiness. #art #SpeirGhorm

This feels like Adam Hurrey in a parallel universe @footballcliches.bsky.social

This drawing of an approaching storm (around 1913) shows Paul Henry's consumate skill with charcoal, the location is likely to be the village of Dugort on the island of Achill on the west coast of Ireland.

Time I suppose for a #painting. "Connemara Cottage II" was painted because I have a fondness for things I can't quite see properly, and even now in my chair as I look at this painting I raise myself up ever so slightly to try and see a bit more of the cottage. Mountains too though. #art #SpeirGhorm

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

A #painting you might like. "Pier Fishing" came out of all the times I've gone to a pier and some young woman or young man was there before me owning the world and its oceans, and I would quietly watch. While this particular scene was in Antrim it was inspired by many piers. #art #SpeirGhorm #scape

👏Congratulations to Carmen Pocknell who successfully defended her PhD thesis on Monday. @maynoothuniversity.ie #PhDone #maynoothuniversityresearch

Have a #painting from a few years ago. The name of this street in Dublin is "Coke Lane", and it's just off Smithfield. That's a fine pub down there but I've always liked the lane in and of itself, so I painted it. #art #SpeirGhorm

Huge congratulations to new Dr Carmen Pocknell after her successful viva voce defence today! Co-supervisors (me and Sean Commins) are very proud! Thanks to @rebeccamaguire.bsky.social and @mariapertl.bsky.social for examining! @mupsychology.bsky.social

This might be the thing that kills him.

This is really sad. The absolute king of snooker coverage and a staple of Saturday nights growing up with Big Break. "Where's the cue ball going?" is a staple of snooker halls up and down the country.

A #painting for a brief distraction. "Dublin, Purple and Orange" I painted because Dublin is home, and what can one say about one's home? I can actually talk a lot, so could wax purple about it all day, but in this instance I decided to simply give you my Dublin - painted in purple. #art #SpeirGhorm

Gorgeous yellow moon rising for Brigid's Day

The Biddy is an Irish folk tradition linked to Brigid’s Day and Imbolc, where groups wear white and handmade straw headpieces to travel around playing music while carrying a Brídeóg (a model Brigid in child form), warding off evil and bringing luck. Prints: www.ciaraioch.com/artprints/p/...

A #painting from a few years ago. I painted this version of "Arran Quay" for the same reason I paint all the versions of Arran Quay. Dublin is home. I love it and I love the river #art #SpeirGhorm #ArtYear

A wonderful morning at the Boyle Winter School 2026

Isn't this a telling aspiration? To want robots to look after your kids, so you can do stuff, rather than robots to do stuff, so you can spend time with your kids? The darkness inside these shrivelled men must be like a gaping unfillable void.

WOW! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE BOARD OF PEACE!
