dóchas is grá

Me in a gorgeous colourful kaftan by Stables and jewelry by Mellissa Curry, and Edge Only. My arms are outstretched and I’m posing in front of large red and orange drapes

Delighted to be the brand ambassador for Design & Craft Council Ireland’s “Made Local” campaign this Christmas. Especially as I’m a grassroots made local craft project myself! And blessed to be dressed head to toe in Irish made “rigouts” and jewellery pretty much every time you’ve ever seen me

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day?

Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

Was it ok? As in people weren't allowed get away with being abusive? I couldn't bear to watch either.

Would be a great day for heather@heatherforpresident.ie to have a full inbox.....

I really liked the phrasing! I agree.

You have to book Kilmainham Gaol well in advance I think but I honestly think there's nowhere better for getting a sense of 500 years of condensed history. I found it very moving, if you don't have a little tear in your eye in the yard, I'd be very surprised!

Thank you!! I was unenthusiastically voting Connolly and now I'm enthusiastically voting Connolly and enthusiastically campaigning against Heather.

We live in Monaghan, my husband has met her many times and just wrote her a very long emotional email asking her to speak directly with our family; we'll see if anything happens. But personally, I'm not surprised.

I saw what she said and it wasn't good. Saying "a woman is an adult female" and maybe the GRC needs reviewing is playing direct to the TERFs.

Spare a thought for poor @gavreilly.com, sadly putting his smarties back in the box #Aras25

Not impossible at all, happening in England frequently now.

It’s not complex though, just listen to trans people and listen to the science. Our legislation works and needs expanded to include non binary people. Saying it’s complex is avoidance.

"Unsure about spaces" is abdolutely TERF. There have been no problems with spaces since the GRA was passed, it's a completely manufactured issue and very much the thin end of the TERF wedge.

This is horrendous. One of my favourite book shops. Buy some books from them in support.

#speirgorm #Aras25 please if you have 5 minutes let heather@heatherforpresident.ie know that throwing trans people and EU human rights law under the bus is not a vote winner.

I imagine you lost many of his teachers and friends(many new Monaghan voters)as well.The entire family will now actively be campaigning against you.Clearly not a President for all, willing to make the country more unsafe for minorities."I wasn't voting for her anyway but some of the family were. 3/3

and questioning the legitimacy of the Gender Rcognition Act, which you should well know was required for compliance with an EU judgment and has caused no problems whatsoever.2/

Just emailed Heather. "Just letting you know, you just lost about 40 votes from our extended family in Monaghan when you threw our son and all the trans people in Ireland under the bus by pandering to the rightwing rag Gript (1/)

I've been restrained about Heather but that's it. #aras25 100% behind Catherine Connolly now.

This is causing a lot of confusion so there's a handy mnemonic you can use:

If your Gavin be gruesome, you'll find he's a Newsom.
If your rent he be havin', you've got a Jim Gavin.

Last word on Jim Gavin-the former tenant & money story was important but his lack of answer/evasion around the #womenofhonour question is more revealing for me- both of Gavin & the media.The media ran with the money,the issue of violence against women,nothing, just ignored,typical #aras25 #speirgorm

He didn't have kids.

Cyrus: 'I was the first person to ever be cancelled' Miley Cyrus has reflected on the intense backlash she received during her transformation from a child actress to a pop star and believes she was the "first person to ever be cancelled".

I think Miss 4 is unhappy about being given an apple instead of a flower to hold.

This is such a lovely thread:

Agreed, and it'd be even more exciting and modern if there were no next King of England.

I'm really sorry, it's awful.

Also from what I've seen of Narrative4 they do good work so please people, do support them even if you don't want to have dinner with Sting.

His great-great-great grandmother died in Carrickmacross Workhouse, don't know if that's dinner table conversation or not! He is quite into his Irish ancestry.
