STOP GIVING MILLIONS TO GREYHOUND RACING

Tonight's bake is a savoury plait - chicken sausage, leek, and stuffing in a rough puff pastry.

Happy with that lamination in my test bake for my planned bake off treat later

I met Catherine Connolly today at WCI Tallaght and I must say she was absolutely lovely. Composed, compassionate, clear. I was genuinely impressed. I already knew, but this really reinforced where my vote is going for #aras25

Books Upstairs is a fine store with a particularly excellent poetry section. Why not support them by ordering your books online instead: booksupstairs.ie

Listen Carl, I'm meeting her in the WCI Tallaght later so I will put this on the list of questions. I'm committed to hard hitting journalism.

I actually have today off work so I am ideally placed to alternate between Silksong and shitposting Presidential memes all. Day. Long.

Outstanding.

But seriously though, by ignoring all the talk within FF, Micheál made this a referendum on his own popularity and leadership within the party. This is the most embarrassing outcome possible for him and FF won't even recoup the money for the posters. An absolute fiasco.

€250k is a good rate of return on €3.3k over 16 years, you have to admit

It's just the same story over and over. Anytime a group of doctors take an honest look at the Cass Review they realize it's bunk.

The irony is that Cass and her confederates were convinced they were blowing the lid off a major medical conspiracy to trans kids.

Transphobe physicians heal thyselves.

It's giving "if you don't all start behaving and getting along I'm going to turn this car around and we're not going to Euro Disney" but then he really did turn the car around and now everyone is crying in a motorway service station while he white knuckles the steering wheel.

Ah here France, we're busy having our own surprise resignation over here, you can't just come and steal our thunder. Honestly... 🙄

#aras25

Blimey, the French media didn't even have time to pop down to Carrefour for a lettuce.

Jim Gavin’s tenant must feel incredible right now

Oh I'd say his phone is absolutely hopping right now.

Funniest possible outcome is that we actually force Jim Gavin to be president now that he doesn't want to any more, but it causes the collapse of FF and subsequently the govt. so we have a surprise Christmas general election. Whey!

#aras25

And one entirely of his own making. They had other options with support in the party, no one forced him to pick Jim Gavin. But he knew best, and I guess now he's gonna reap what he sowed...

It's rude to drop out of an election at the same time as people have the Monday fear. He should have done the gentlemanly thing and waited til 9.30 or so tomorrow.

Men will literally drop out of a presidential election instead of going to therapy

Picturing the driver of the Merc that sped up a bus lane to cut me off, that had a Jim Gavin sticker in his back window, sadly scraping it off tomorrow morning, fuming that now people will only be able to tell he's a tool because of the car he's driving and not the sticker. #aras25

My husband somehow missed the news in our various WhatsApp groups so I got to be the one to tell him. Absolutely floating on air so I am

Going to bed absolutely gleeful. Jaysus I love Irish politics 😂

A day well spent.

Where are the Irish, Swedish and other Western governments whose citizens were kidnapped in international waters and illegally transported to Israel? Where are the statements condemning their kidnapping and treatment, and demanding their immediate release?

Screen cap of parodic version of William Blake's "The Tyger" that begins: Tyger! Tyger! Burning bright (Not sure if I spelled that right) What immortal hand or eye Could fashion such a stripy guy? What the hammer that hath hewn it Into such a chonky unit? Did who made the lamb make thee, Or an external franchisee?

In honor of National Poetry Day, the greatest parody rewrite of all time:

oh its the thing everyone said was going to happen when this got brought in and it immediately happened

This is why I've been saying that the portal, having not launched in June, was already late. Companies have now missed their opportunity to upload early and check, to reach out for help, etc. There is going to be a surge of confused people in November, probably finding me, and seeking help.
