Yeah

(I confess, I already looked)... In other news... I may set up a Letterboxd account... looks great...

There Will Be Blood? Not that he would have "basic" taste necessarily, but it's the Shawshank Redemption of the 2010s and therefore the safest guess.

I moved from Donegal (strong youse country) to Cavan (even stronger YEE country) when I was 8. I'm 37 now and, even though my accent has watered down significantly in most circles (apart from around family and "new" people for some reason?) I still feel weird sayin yee...

My brain hurts...

Every time I see a headline like this, I wonder if I'm having a stroke.

Let Salah sit on the bench and smirk all he wants - Ngumoha starts the next game, no questions asked

Somebody ring the Guards, I swear to God...

The way they'd say cyaaarrr instead of car up in certain parts of the North. That "y" would've been all over 17th century London

There's a language historian fella I watch on Youtube... apparently, because the English brought to Ulster in the 1600s remained so insular for so long, the accent didn't change much over the years... so people in London in the 1600s basically spoke with a Fermanagh accent!!

I guess there's a safety in regarding yourself as being at one with the earth and the sun etc... part of a bigger thing over which we can't control.

These mushrooms are JUST about to wear off, I swear...

For years I wouldn't have bothered going to my local small-town St Patrick's Day parade at all... now, I'm kinda into it? Maybe it's just getting older? But with things like Samhain and Imbolc... definitely feels like people want to touch grass.

Feels like people are yearning for the sense of community the church would've kinda automatically given people in the past? That and it feels like more people are... getting kinda bored of the internet and the consumption of endless content??

New map work! Greenways of Ireland. Something I've been wanting to do for a long time. Surprising just how many there are, and even more in planning #GreenwaysIreland #ActiveTravel #Cycling

Oh it had a pretty big budget at the time... and they, eh, let's just say they definitely weren't as fussy about what materials/resources they were using in 1938/39 as they would be today.

Sorry, thought it was released in 37. If it was released in 39, I presume it was shot in 38 or so?

The Dark Secrets Behind The Wizard of Oz

It was made 2 or 3 years before. None of the actors were there that I know of, but the story of the production is frankly INSANE... this is well worth a listen...

I Don't Want to Wait

This gives me un-ending joy... SOMEHOW the weather will be decent again...

3 years sober today... ANYTHING is possible...

Jesus...

Corner of Leeson Street and Stephen's Green for example... death trap... coming off Merrion Square down to Holles Street... DEATH trap... Anywhere within 100 yards of the Luas tracks... I could go on...

Ye have to get out ahead of the cars, like. Left turn at a T Junction is every cyclist's moral right. I ALWAYS cross when the man is green. Just give pedestrians right of way, everybody wins. But, like, when ye cycle in town a lot, ye know the junctions where ye can't take the piss...

He was lookin at his BONE!!

Cyclists aren't perfect... but our mode of transport doesn't weigh over a tonne and it is not up for debate that we're more vigilant - our lives are on the line, like?

I've cycled for 10+ years, I'm a relative newcomer to driving... but people give out about cyclists runnin a few red lights etc... when yer drivin, ye actually notice how bad (other) drivers are way more... people just fully swaying side to side on the road cuz they're on their fuckin phones, like

Zack Polanski: I thought what Keir Starmer said about me was vile Green leader Zack Polanski is taking the fight to Labour with his brand of eco-populism — but while he’s riding high in the polls, do his economic policies really stack up?

Zack Polanski: The Labour Party have been corporate captured. They’re doing the things they’ve been told to do
