Just a bearded gay man from the greatest place on earth, Cork. Munster supporter. Seeking greener pastures, I left Twitter. Turns out, they were on Bluesky!

Quentin Tarantino's Top 20 Films of the 21st Century Topped by โ€˜Black Hawk Down' โ€” World of Reel Quentin Tarantino has completed his list. Guesting on The Bret Easton Ellis Podcast , he announced his 20 best films of the 21st century โ€” only one film allowed per director.

Quentin Tarantino's top 20 films of the century:

1. Black Hawk Down
2. Toy Story 2
3. Lost in Translation
4. Dunkirk
5. There Will be Blood.

Read article for more context.

Tarantino calling actor Paul Dano a "weak, uninteresting guy" is baffling however.

When I first saw him appear in the background of photos outside Leinster House I was convinced he was a fellow gay man.

That moustache would have made a killing in the 80's gay Berlin porn scene.

Confirmed tonight, we're relegated. Long season, but a cup final next month.

I'm all for tough interviewers, but Colette Fitzpatrick was awful tonight on The Big Interview with Catherine Connolly TD.

John Downing summed it up perfectly on the Indo Politics (@independent.ie) podcast earlier - Fianna Fรกil have quite a deal of explaining to do as to what kind of due diligence they went through to vet a potential candidate for the highest office in the land from the biggest party in the land.

FAI Cup final semi-final match in Turner's Cross Stadium, Cork. Cork City FC (in white) versus Saint Pat's (in green). Pitch side view of match after a Cork City goal.

2017 or so is the last time I remember a match of this magnitude in a packed out Turners Cross. Still taking it all in.

As City fans we've been through hell this season, but a semi-final win like that last night was more than deserved.

We're @corkcityfc.ie and we're off to the Aviva boi ๐Ÿฅณ

Last night I watched The Godfather.

This morning I woke up a earlier than usual just to listen to Taylor Swift's new album.

Sorry, but this is some old baloney. But also, I have GDPR questions about the emergance of this story.

This feels like an SNL skit.

Also does Hegseth know that the person (JD Vance) ranked first in the presidential line of succession (and thereby ranked first in succession to the role of Commander-in-Chief of the US Armed Forces) is also bearded?

Took me until tonight to realise that Jim Gavin is just the Dublin version of Micheรกl Martin.

I send my solidarity to Dublin as a Cork man.

No surprise that Catherine Connolly TD won tonight's debate. Every answer was well thought out, and I imagine sounded sensible to anyone on the political spectrum listening.

That "we are talking about human beings" line by Catherine Connolly when Kieran Cuddihy repeatedly referred to Asylum Seekers as "Some of them" sums up her consistent decency throughout her career. Any engagement I see with Catherine she always makes the point of using the right respectful language.

Few fans wanted him originally, yet we suffered for the last 9 months under his reign.

Whoever decided the soundtrack for #HouseOfGuinness deserves a pay increase. Some serious decisions were made in production.

The only person to have this much influence on an Irish vote before Kelley was Michael Lowry.

Comment: Sinn Fรฉin should support Catherine Connolly The right is unified in opposing her โ€“ the left should similarly unite.

The political right hates Michael D Higgins โ€“ with good reason

The establishment doesnโ€™t want a popular socialist leader to find a worthy successor. That's why it's doing everything it can to sabotage Catherine Connolly

The left should similarly unite
