Eight years ago, Ireland voted for choice, compassion and trusting women. Yet women are still being forced to travel for care. Contact your TDs and ask them to support the Reproductive Rights Bill this Wednesday. Give us the Repeal we voted for.

I am so sick of the criticism of the "designer" bicyle storage facility in Kerry Hospital. Lets have a look at these costs, understanding them is about reframing what was actually built, and comparing it fairly against the infrastructure society routinely accepts for cars. 1/

New mothers especially, are bombarded with shaming medical misinformation online that is packaged as wholistic & gentle in a way that is every bit as damaging and dangerous as the stuff peddled by right wing anti vaxxers. The more middle class you go, the worse it gets www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

“This looks like a long document. Would you like an AI summary?” is a question I’ve just been asked out the book I am writing.

Any recommendations for good podcast series for a long road trip?

“If it wasn’t for us, you’d be speaking _” SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP I AM GOING TO COMBUST

Once the British press gets the classic introspective and depressed backseat car photo of you… it is over.

Skips McGuirk out of a job at the old fash factory, is it?

The chokehold those astronauts have on my mental stability right now

One thing I like about Finland that people don’t really know about is how dog-friendly it is. We used to take our dog to cafes, on the bus, on trains, to hotels, even to some restaurants.

*To the tune of Joyce Country Céilí Band by the Saw Doctors* Transgender Moomin Cup!

Tyra Banks went to the Prince Andrew School Of Doing Pre-Recorded TV Interviews About Horrible Things You’ve Done

Well that was a TERRIBLE TIME and I did not enjoy

I have not read Wuthering Heights but I think I’d like to. I have no idea what happens in it. Will I regret it if I go see that film before reading it?

Cutting down the manuscript word-count to fit the journal requirements🤦🏽

Guy whose claim to fame was stealing research from a woman and race science is in the Epstein files? In other news, Fork Found In Kitchen

She should have told that Norwegian man that forgiveness was for gold medal winners x

Up next at the Winter Olympics, we have Human Ice Cannon* where we shoot a person out of a cannon and it’s on the ice for some reason! *Athletes are docked points if they don’t smile

The absolute NECK?

“I’m solving communication problems for deaf people using AI” is the new “sign language glove” but worse.

Because it’s in the news again I need ye to know that the Finnish baby box is just a very nice perk in a system designed to take excellent care of pregnant people, their partners and babies. The box is a nice thing but it’s the system that is the real gift!

Can they get your man Ralph Fiennes to do the Lisa Barlow Hot Mic Monologue for New Years Eve in New York this year please

No actually I don’t think I’ll be spending 70 quid on 100% polyester pyjamas are you for real lads

Imagine being Irish and being anti immigration??? Make it make sense! How’s your uncle getting on there in Sydney? How’s your nephew doing in Dubai? I heard the American cousins were over for a visit last month?

Once again, if you believe that FF&FG would only love to give us a well-resourced, world beating welfare state but it’s just those pesky immigrants won’t let them, you are a gobshite. You have a loyalty card with your local bridge salesman. You were, in fact, born yesterday.

Saying that the European Convention on Human Rights has gone too far is like saying that seat belts have gone too far. Because really, seat belts are non invasive, a minor thing, something you hardly notice. That is, of course, until things get really bad. Then you’re really glad about the seat belt

With every failed attempt to stop people groping the Molly Malone statue, we move closer to electrifying her, which is a social good

Just submitted the final draft of my manuscript what now

This paper I wrote was published at the weekend. It documents some of the disappointed felt by deaf people after the passing of sign language recognition laws in Ireland, Finland and the UK. journal.iraal.ie/index.php/te...

When I say I hope to have my affairs in order before I die, I mean have a slew of absolute sick burns ready to publish on the death of terrible men who outlive me.

“Irish is having such a resurgence right now” a scríobhann Béarleoir eile, don mhíliú uair ar feadh 10 mbliana nuair a chasann sé ar duine atá beo ag úsáid an Ghaeilge amach sa saol.

"Spare a thought" Cuimhním orthu siúd gan an deis chéanna acu liomsa an Ghaeilge a bheith acu ar pé chúis - cos ar bholg, bochtaineacht, éagumas nó rochtain is déanaim iarracht na baic sin a scrios seachas éisteacht leo siúd ab b'fhearr leo géilleadh. archive.is/flRku

Rory Best appeared in court the day Paddy Jackson's victim gave her evidence. He said lawyers asked for him to be there, he lied and had to pay substantial damages to the lawfirm. He was Ireland captain at the time. He was a character witness for Jackson.

Girls I’ve asked this on the Bad Place years ago but how do I make a Báirín Breac when I *detest* dried fruit but enjoy spooky treats

One thing I learned from my very recent listen to the LOTR audiobooks is that the men of Gondor are Very Strong and Very Good and Not At All Corruptible By An Awesome Power

We already had a referendum to make it easier to get on the ballot! Lowering the age limit for a candidate from 35 to 21! It was rejected! That was only ten years ago! Are we all going crazy?!

“We need to respect the opinions of everybody who spoiled their vote” Actually I think you’ll find that they spoiled their vote because we’ve lost the ancient art of telling people to cop on for themselves when they’re talking shite

I wonder will Catherine Connollys landslide show politicians that there's no massive constituency for fox hunting or IFA style agriculture (it won't and we will still be forced to have policies made for an incredibly small amount of landowners)

Turns out voting for Catherine Connolly is a rural pursuit.
