Finding hard to swallow some Irish people saying politics should be kept out of sport when the British Army massacred players and spectators in the largest sporting ground in the country... It was political when IRFU refused to boycott apartheid SA, it is political when FAI refuses to do so for 🇮🇱

Imagine building a hotel beside a late night bar that has been there for YEARS before you and not putting in some form of sound proofing in the rooms and INSTEAD taking legal action on the bar. FUCK OFF.

Someone should ask Mícheál Martin if he thinks the sporting boycott of apartheid South Africa was a mistake

Just paying attention

Actually Farage my experience as an East Londoner is that I feel colonised by privately educated people from backgrounds like yours. #r4today

AI proponents: Claude is self aware it has feelings.

Me: Fuck you. It's a speak and spell!

Jim Henson: Kermit was originally made of my mother's coat. His eyes are made out of...

Me: Don't talk about Kermit like he's not there, Jim. You've worked together too long for that.

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

The only other place it rains so consistently is Gotham City and now I understand why so many of the citizens turn to circus themed crime.

Happy birthday! 🎂

first they ruin the library bar and now this, the hoxton hotel can honestly get fuuucked

If I had to describe the last 6 weeks in Ireland it would be that horrible feeling when your sleeve gets wet when washing your hands but for your soul.

Real monkeys paw that the rain is going to stop but it’s going to somehow be -4.

This is such an important question. It is baffling to me that every newspaper – including ones here in Ireland – saw fit to publish ill-informed swill from a total gobshite.

Rich people's opinions on things outside of their area of expertise are of no more value than anyone else's.

The fact is, for Starmer this story is just a convenient distraction from his disastrous latest week.

His demand for an apology is hollow when his own government puts out the exact same divisive & factually inaccurate rubbish day in, day out.

If the PM reckons Jim Ratcliffe should apologise for spreading this exact same lie, should the Home Office apologise too, or? 🤨

Growing up in NI during the Troubles involved turning on the news most days with trepidation but i especially remember how the murders of ‘troublesome’ nationalist HR lawyers - inc also Rosemary Nelson - made us feel particularly vulnerable and not only unprotected but targeted by the state.

Brad Pitt shooting One For All a thriller about a man racing against time to spend vouchers as they're losing value but hardly any shop he likes will take them.

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

I was 15 when Dawson's Creek, and it had such an impact on me. It's one of the standout cultural touchpoints of my teens. 48 is no age. This is heartbreaking 💔😢

James Van Der Beek, Dawson's Creek Star and Father of 6, Dies at 48 After Cancer Journey James Van Der Beek has died after he was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer in August 2024. The actor was best known for playing Dawson Leery on 'Dawson's Creek'.

James Van Der Beek was part of one of the most influential shows of a certain era, a show that loomed large to a certain generation of critics. Beyond that, he was talented, willing to poke fun at himself & seemed like a good man. Extremely sad news. Way, way too young. 💚 people.com/james-van-de...

Social media would be healthier if it fully shut down every evening after playing this, the Touch Grass video (Irish Edition)

Oh, she's soooo good in it!! I love her 😍
She had a great conversation on the Tommy Tiernan Show.

This is excellent & draws out something the rest of the media is ignoring: among other things, the Epstein files have made it super, super clear that the entire "anti-woke" cultural hysteria was engineered by powerful men averse to accountability.

Trixie in jeans is a first, I think. #CallTheMidwife

Sr Monica Joan and Sr Julienne and Sr Veronica all being vulnerable is a lot 🥺😢 #CallTheMidwife

Once again, I feel like Nurse Crane would be one of the most comforting people to have by your side in a crisis. #CallTheMidwife

Wasn't expecting a Gilbert O'Sullivan musical montage. Felt like a #ReelingInTheYears crossover for a minute there. #CallTheMidwife

This is a particularly bleak episode 😟 #CallTheMidwife

#OnThisDay 100 years ago, The Plough and the Stars by Sean O'Casey premiered at the Abbey Theatre.

At its original production in February 1926, the audience rioted. Now regarded as a masterpiece, this provocative play is an essential part of our understanding of Irish history and Irish theatre.
