"with Claude, we will no longer need lightly stoned weirdos who work at record stores because they are neurodivergent as hell and some band you've never heard of but is about to change your life is their special interest" these tech bros really hate anyone who was cooler than them in high school

Really touching that Danni's takeaway wasn't that they were one of the best twelve bakers out of everyone who applied or whatever, but that they could make friends. #GBBO

“I don’t approve of calling food naughty. We’ve got to take pleasure where we can in life.” Not to put presenters against one another, but I’ve never forgotten Prue saying something was “not worth the calories” so Nigella saying this - along with familiar bakes! - is like a normality reset #gbbo

I would urge people to recall, as we hear the government justify their choices in the coming budget, that long before the fuel protests, this govermment gave a massive and economically unjustifiable VAT cut to hospitality, which cost more than half of what an additional child benefit payment would

Ah, right. No moves for reduction in public transport costs, or expansion of bus and train routes; no push for investment in housing, healthcare or regeneration of rural towns and villages. Mé féiners exploiting justified anger and hurt, to turn people against each other. #spéirghorm #ireland

Spent the afternoon with friends on the Garvaghy Road, listening to stories of local people’s grief and trauma from the last time around. This is no way to live. Love and solidarity, peace and progress to all. We have come so far. We are one society, one community. We cannot go back.

It's pure shite that it has come down the players though. The FAI should have backed them, and got them out of the game.

Goodness, what a weight on the players. What a sense of clashing responsibilities it must be. How unfair it falls to the group of young men after their institutional supports chose to send them there.

I’m also loving the new Gurriers album. Now I’m listening to Trá Pháidín’s Cloch’s Claí and it’s absolutely cracking too. What a day for Irish music.

I reviewed the new Trá Pháidín album for Best Fit. It is stupid good. Batshit good. A boggy mix of post-rock, free jazz, naturalistic ambient. Read here – it's out on Friday www.thelineofbestfit.com/albums/tra-p...
thelineofbestfit.com
Trá Pháidín cultivate a modernist Irish sound that defies easy categorisation
Trá Pháidín aren’t trying to modernise a form rooted in tradition; rather, they are seeking to bricolage something novel.

Two big new albums from Irish bands out on Friday. Gilla Band have made their loudest, weirdest one yet and seem happier than ever with where they’re at. Meanwhile Gurriers are eyeing ever-bigger stages while shouting loud and proud about their politics substack.com/home/post/p-...

On their new albums, Gilla Band and Gurriers are going in different directions
Pugnello and Nobody’s Coming to Save You are both released on Friday, September 25.

so we need thousands of staff for transport infrastructure, thousands of staff for nursing homes and thousands of young people are leaving the country... and we are turning away people who want to come to ireland to work, while making those who are here wait longer for citizenship. ok grand

Two weeks of having an electric car and I love it. What a great car. We got the smaller battery VW iD 4 because we don’t drive much and it seems to be grand for our needs.

The September equinox is today, 23rd September, 2026. Today the sun will be directly above the equator for a moment as it makes its way south. And that moment is now, 01:04 Dublin time (i.e. 01:04 IST, 00:04 UTC).

The mighty Siobhán McSweeney was presented with a print of my Gráinne Mhaol piece by the very lovely Kevin McGahern for her hard work on #TraitorsIRL, after she mentioned that Ireland's pirate queen Gráinne was a big style inspiration for her incredible outfits this season. No better woman! 👑
Photo of the bould Siobhán McSweeney in a room with light blue and white patterned wallpaper and a wooden floor, holding a framed print of mine of a linocut of Gráinne Mhaol.

Right, this could be a long series otherwise so I think it’s worth pointing out that the contestant a lot of people think is doing an affected kooky persona is almost certainly autistic and her behaviours and mannerisms should maybe be viewed through that prism! #GBBO

Ok Bluesky it's rare I ask for help. But this time I need huge help from the #osint community and #speirgorm #speirghorm, and everyone who follows me. I have a goal to raise up to €100,000 for a long time friend and colleague who is going to leave us.

Who will they murder. If I was a traitor at this stage I think I’d murder Kayleigh and then try get everyone to vote Pete out. Then split Anna and Diego’s votes somehow to win. #traitorsirl But maybe it won’t go like that at all!
