The difference between the short vowel sound /i/ and the long vowel sound /I:/ always a challenge for English language learners. 😂😂😂

Ireland won’t participate in Eurovision 2026 if Israel does: Broadcaster RTE says participating would be ‘unconscionable’ as a result of Israel’s war on Gaza and the ‘appalling loss of lives’.

Apparently, Kerry County Council are considering 12 candidates to be nominated for the presidency today. Conor McGregor is NOT one of them. He hasn't submitted his name. He isn't running to be President.

And of course, 'Priscilla Queen of the Desert', in which he was in preproduction for 'Priscilla 2'. Sad loss. 😥

Supported by Senator Keoghan, that's a kiss of death. Last year she was supporting someone called MacGregor

Who is this minister serving? 10 Million of tax payers money to the NFL, the richest sporting league in the world. It's a lot of OUR money for a box seat minister.

Walking through D1 yesterday and seeing the amount of rubbish bags opened and the household content strewn on the streets made me sick. DCC and Fingal CC- do what you are paid to do please. 2/2

I am with a group of volunteers who regularly litter-pick Tolka Valley Park. The neglect of the DCC and Fingal CC to timely collect what's gathered leaves the bags to be tossed by weather, animals and antisocial types, makes me conclude that the councils are the biggest litters in the park. 1/2

Counted 160 bikes outside school this morning. There’s a spin around town for bike week today, this isn’t typical!

But five years ago there was only space for 14 bikes here. #SráidScoile

Séamas O'Reilly: Trans people have spent a decade being attacked in a moral panic The poor provision of unisex children’s facilities— which reinforces gender stereotypes and inconveniences women and men both — was, incidentally, an issue I remember being quite talked-about a decade...

The UK's political and media class has spent years heaping sadism on trans people, and they want to do the same in Ireland next. Calls for civility and calm won't cut it. We need to fight them tooth and nail.
