Got called Harry Potter by a child on an e bike earlier and firstly, scundered, but secondly why does this child know about Harry Potter ? Is there not a Roblox character I could be getting loosely compared to ?

Text from a book that reads: We cast spells all the time with our opinions. An example: I see a friend and give him an opinion that just popped into my mind. I say, “hmmm! I see that kind I f colour in people who are going to get cancer.” If he listen to the word, and if he agrees, he will have cancer in less than one year. That is the power of the word

tweet that reads:
Lady behind me at The Thing screening last night to her partner "why are they shooting at the dog?" and her partner says very firmly "have you never seen a film before? You watch it and information is revealed"

Is new Dublin restaurant Entrecôte connected to the French originals? A few weeks ago this Instagram page appeared, announcing a "world famous French bistro" was coming to Dublin. Ears were pricked, and questions abounded about exactly which "Entrecôte" was coming to Ir...

It doesn't matter if you're into food and restaurants, this is a must-read on the importance of fact-checking and subject-matter experts (and a mini exposé on how a particular food enterprise in Dublin is capitalising on its absence in Irish media). www.allthefood.ie/single-post/...

Nutritional info of the flours, protein in lidls is 11.7%, odlums is 11%

Nutritional info of the flours, protein in lidls is 11.7%, odlums is 11%

Lidl is sold out of bread flour 😭 Only alternative is Odlums from Tesco
and am DISAPPOINTED to see it has less protein and so likely less gluten…will be worse for making bread

(Am I mainly bleating this so I remember this in future myself?? MAYBE)

ted.
In this context I feel obliged to state once more that - like the hundreds of protesters arrested last weekend - I too support Palestine Action. If this makes me a "supporter of terror" un-
der UK law, so be it. My books, at least for now, are still published in Britain, and are widely available in bookshops and even supermarkets. In recent years the UK's state broadcaster has also televised two fine adaptations of my novels, and therefore regularly pays me residual fees. I want to be clear that I intend to use these pro-ceeds of my work, as well as my public platform generally, to go on support-ing Palestine Action and direct action against genocide in whatever way I can. If the British state considers this
"terrorism", then perhaps it should investigate the shady organisations that continue to promote my work and fund my activities, such as WH Smith
and the BBC.

Wow Sally Rooney. Fair play.

With heartfelt thanks to the team at Hachette Ireland, I can now share that my first book, At Least It Looks Good From Space, is coming out this October.

I thought I was more emotionally prepared for this moment but it turns out I'm absolutely not. I hope you like it.

Disappointed to see Contrapoints having bad opinions™️, the left SHOULD be opposed to Zionism. It’s a genocidal colonial project, and it doesn’t want a two state solution, it wants an expanding Israel and the erasure of Palestine. Also v unsure of the assertion that most Jews are Zionist
