I've played #HadesII for 45m and I already have more of an emotional connection to the MC and more opinions on possible relationships than I think I've ever had in such a short space of time. All good so far!

If you weren't listening to Oyin, what were you doing? #TraitorsIRL

Worth the license fee! #TraitorsIRL

Who runs the world?! Delirah! #TraitorsIRL

the rapture was just an attempt by Big Erasure to distract us all from visible bisexuals today

Sad and happy at the same time. #TraitorsIRL

The reason I'm concerned about Maria Steen being on the ballot isn't that she will win (she won't). My worry is that if she is nominated, it will mean a month of national airtime for a hate campaign against vulnerable groups, carried by a media too scared of being sued to call it what it is

Fuck. Yes! #TraitorsIRL

5 people who weren't born in 1990 singing Olé Olé in celebration is just so wonderfully Irish. #TraitorsIRL

I'm honestly not sure when I watched so much non-sports RTÉ broadcasting. So glad they bought the format. Loved every moment, whatever the outcome. #TraitorsIRL

Here. We. Go! #TraitorsIRL

All of my merch arrived today, I shall stick my sticker to my mug while wearing my t-shirt!

The first sighting of a #Dublin2029 t-shirt in the wild! Thank you to Tommy for sharing this - we think it looks great and apparently it’s nice and comfy too. Are you already rocking a Dublin2029 design? Send us a photo - we’d love to see it! (1/2)

Tonight the #TraitorsIRL phrase of the day is "messy as fuck!"

Hearing the various bits of #Aras25 news today, and people not getting council nominations due to bad prep, is it better to not prepare and fail, or to secretly prepare for 2 years and then fail? Answers on a postcard!

That was quite the mic drop of a banishment speech! #TraitorsIRL

I always notice the diminishing numbers far more at the round table than at breakfast. #TraitorsIRL

We are looking for volunteers. Volunteering is at the heart of Eastercon. It is what makes the convention possible! By giving a little of your time, you help shape the experience for everyone while joining a welcoming, creative community. The form is on our website eastercon2026.org/volunteering

#FRAvENG got more exciting towards the end, but ultimately the result was as expected with England going to the #RWC2025 final against Canada. What a match that has the potential to be!

I'm pretty sure Enoch is an unemployed convict in constant flux, rather than a teacher? But still, very amusing and sad.

2nd #RWC2025 SF is #FRAvENG and it's taken England 5 minutes to score, which is clearly a disaster. :) I really hope France make this a match!

O’Connor secures stunning silver while McPhillips finishes fourth at World Championships

Wild that he was preparing for two years and nobody thought to come up with a game plan for "What if some people still remember 2007?"

Ya know, I would watch the hell out of a song contest consisting of Spain, Slovenia, the Netherlands, Iceland and Ireland

So, THIS is happening "Rewild the Internet: How to Resist Big Tech" will be published by Simon & Schuster in NY and Bloomsbury in London. Every bit of power we take from Big Tech takes it away from autocrats like Trump. Showing how is what I'm doing to meet this moment. (tk u @robin.berjon.com)

Come play with us, 3PO.

Absolutely amazing victory from Canada. New Zealand came back, but couldn't do enough against a superb team. I know who I'll be up for in the final. England will still be the favourites (sorry France), but it's going to be a cracker! #NZLvCAN #RWC2025

Two tries I could see from New Zealand, three I just can't with 6 minutes left. #NZLvCAN #RWC2025

The New Zealand defence is absolutely not up to the Canadian attack right now. NZ need to score soon and frequently or this SF will disappear completely out of sight for them. Amazing play by the Canadians! #NZLvCAN #RWC2025

something which is not a person, and does not have feelings or intelligence, being designed visually in an aspirational, rich- and status-coded way and programmed to say it is hurt, while ACTUAL HUMAN BEINGS who don't look or speak nicely are not treated as human. COMEMIERDERÍA

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the .ie domain registry, the company that took over the ccTLD from UCD in 2000. It's been a wild ride at times, but it's amazing to see the domain in such good hands, going from strength to strength, standing on the shoulders of giants.

I'm really not sure how the Faithful couldn't have found the answer on a quick rip.ie search. #TraitorsIRL

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

Needing a cup of tea is peak #TraitorsIRL

It's a September afternoon, the sky outside is dark and I can hear various corvids making suitable noises! Yay #Autumn!

Man who was never actually going to get nominated, and who didn't want to do anything other than tell lies on the Internet has said that he's not going to put himself forward for the Presidency. What a surprise! Appreciate all the news sources mentioning the law suits. #Aras25

Everyone needs to listen to Oyin, always. #TraitorsIRL

Well, I won’t be reading this absolute tripe on behalf of the queer people who were tortured, the young women who were locked up, the women who died giving birth, the people excluded from jobs, condemned to unhappy marriages, forced into exile, hounded from public life, shamed from towns…

Aoife O’Rourke has won gold for Ireland at the World Boxing Championships in Liverpool, defeating her Turkish opponent by a 5–0 unanimous decision after dominating all three rounds. More on #VMNews

Well, couldn't have asked for more from the team. The gulf between the top four in Women's rugby and the rest is so big and they almost won. Gutted for them. #FRAvIRE #RWC2025

I can't remember the last time I saw a team look so determined to play as bafflingly daft a game as France are today, but it was probably also France.

#RWC2025 QF time for Ireland. Exciting first 5 minutes, and hopefully one of these tries will stick! #FRAvIRE
