We’ve had to listen to some very unimpressive TDs talk shit about public sector workers needing to prove their worth and up their game. Meanwhile the sight of an almost-empty greyhound track and the yelping of mistreated animals gets them humming the national anthem as a tear rolls down their cheek

If you're in my GP's office any time soon, prepare yourself for what many are calling the greatest mnemonic of all time. Come for E and P, but sit down and clap for I.
Me: I’d like a slice of pizza Server: that comes with three sides Me: I know what shape it is
I don't follow Formula One, but good on them for using subtitles for the hard of hearing…

Beoga and Aaron Rowe pulling out of Sheeran's tour is so admirable. Putting principles in front of career is incredibly brave and I hope they get huge support because of it.
“None of this is truly about citizenship. It’s about O’Callaghan projecting himself as a future leader by looking tough on immigration. He’s throwing shapes – at the expense of decent people and families who are already part of the fabric of Irish life.“
Fintan O'Toole: Living in Milwaukee with a Mayo granny automatically makes you Irish. Living here doesn’t
I don't say this lightly or flippantly: I honestly think this is the most incompetent government we've had in my lifetime and this is a really bad time for it. None of these guys are *anywhere near* qualified for their important ministerial portfolios. An embarrassing shambles of a cabinet
Gerard McCarthy's response to Maureen Lipman is so fucking good
The reactions to Robert Redford dying was 1) what an incredible talent, and 2) awooga Dolly has him beat cos it's 1) what an incredible humanitarian, 2) what an incredible talent, and 3) awoooga
If a mug says "dishwasher safe" you can put it in the dishwasher. If it doesn't say "dishwasher safe" it's still ok to put it in the dishwasher. If it says "do not put in dishwasher under any circumstances" you can still put it in the dishwasher a little bit
Not speaking ill of the dead is how Jimmy Saville got something approaching a state funeral.
This is what an actual *hero* of Irish music looks like:
A very happy trans pride to all of our trans brothers, sisters and anyone else in the trans community. We are here to protect, defend, promote, amplify you & ensure this madness ends and soon you get the same rights and freedoms as anyone else.
Sam Neil & Bonnie Tyler or Anne Widdecombe & Lindsey Graham. Pick how you'd like the world to react to your death and behave accordingly while you're still alive.
My favourite part of the McGregor debacle was when he put his hands up asking the other lad to stop hitting him and the other lad hit him anyway. Fuckin sucks when people ignore the word ‘no’ isn’t it Conor?
You're laughing... I can't withdraw my Bonk from Kraken and you're laughing?
Kraken has temporarily suspended deposits and withdrawals of Bonk due to an ongoing incident affecting the token, according to its website.
I will buy a subscription to the first mainstream Irish publication that simply states the truth in the headline of a news report that "racist pogroms" took place in Belfast last night and doesn't weasel word it by calling it a "protest" and continues do so
More of this, less of everything else.
Happy Friday to everyone except
Now listening to an absolute classic. I picked up an original vinyl copy in Japan recently for a steal.
Same thing we do every night, Pinky. Binge watch a comfort show and disassociate.
Life is so short. So short. So short. Do your best. It's all we can do.
