Hard not to see him purely as a comprador. Tbh possibly he'd even admit to it.

He was pretty clear in his latest podcast that, while unfortunate, lives in Gaza should be sacrificed for the sake of Irish GDP and encouraging entrepreneurship. Having quite the week, this fella.

Enjoying listening to Elastica merely to wind up Wire fans.

We need to end this kind of blithering nonsense. And also the contract for any Irish times columnist who has been writing it for far too long.

Truly wish Damon just posted Parklife and There's No Other Way like this. Liam is all "have you heard this song?"

Lone Star Queen

Like, me and my best friend would be playing this and wondering where D-Beat came from youtu.be/I-jdkhXjpgY?...

Man, RIP David Johansen. Trying to understand how the New York Dolls had any connection to the grindcore and lo-fi metal bands that constituted the Irish punk scene around the turn of the century was an education in itself.

Album holds up! More than NME's other 2005 revival zeitgeist, the "Summer of Ska" ๐Ÿ˜

I remember saying this in 2005 as the Giant Drag album SWEPT the indie nation (brief popularity in NME and on my iPod).

I find this very moving: a 10-year-old Ukrainian boy who moved to the West of Ireland 2 years ago as a refugee, speaking in Irish of his love of playing Irish music

Lot of whining about Emily Wilson's translation of the Odyssey when the real issue is an annoying series of perky tweets by someone who calls herself "librarian mama." This is what people are actually mad about, even if they don't consciously realize it.

Look, it's basically a Christmas ornament on the cover so it's a seasonal listen

This is going to be one of those situations like rating the Odyssey as a 3/5 book on Goodreads.
