I LOVE Brothers so far! There is a scene in E2 when Woody Harrelson is crying after experiencing trauma, and his teenage daughter comes to him and they share his blunt. This could have been me and @msbonnielynne.bsky.social ! It resonated with me so strongly! It's quirky and unique. #TVsky

Ah here, lads! Class day here out west, absolutely buzzing off it. Smashed the exam yesterday so I'm delighted with myself, like. Been a savage week altogether and I'm SO ready for the weekend now. Grand out, peace and love 💋 #SpeirGorm

One of the most jarring differences between my new culture and the one I left behind is how we use the "c-u-next-tuesday" word.

Ah I've a gig on tonight, back on the laugh floor after havin' to cancel last week when I was wrecked with the flu. Sure it'll probably start creepin' in as I get closer to it, but for the first time since I started, I'm not bricking it. Feels mad good, honestly.

A throuple's just three people who love and respect each other and get on brilliant together, that's it. Why's everyone so weird about it? It's nobody's business what makes people happy — the snide comments and sniggering need to stop, honestly.

As if any sane person's going to tear open that Pop-Tart wrapper, eat the one, fold it back up neat as you like, and save the other for later. Not a chance. That foil's opened, both of them's going down the hatch, and the label knows it too — it's only codding itself.

My birth mother was detained and deported by ICE. A big reason why I am here. I am so thankful they didn't shoot her while capturing her. She is non-violent and has never been armed for one minute of her life. But that has never stopped ICE thugs from executing immigrants on sight . #SpeirGorm

Howya, lads! I hope Monday's been good to ya. Gorgeous day on campus! I think I'm actually starting to make proper friends. It's great getting messages from the girls about non-college stuff, even if it's only nosiness about the Yank and her story 😁❤️ #SpeirGorm

Happy Sunday, everyone! The sun is out and it's the mildest it's been in a while, but I'm stuck inside with the study, playing catch-up after that lurgy knocked me flat on my arse for days. Still, it's a grand day altogether. It's lovely having the windows and patio door open. #speirgorm

Morning, loves! Happy Saturday! Still can’t shake this rotten fatigue from this rotten COVID. 😩 Did make the most of the early sun, though—strolled down for my favourite breakfast roll, took in the sea air at the Prom, and now I’m settling in for a bit od writing. 💙 #SpeirGorm #amwriting #WIP

Was chattin’ up my baby brother back in the States tonight. He’s gearing up for a big trip in the mornin’g. “Are you gonna miss your little girlfriend?” “Yeah but I’ll forget about her in a couple of days.” “Well don’t tell her (or any girl) that!” #BigSisterAdvice #RelationshipAdvice

Welcome, new followers! ☘️ I’m The Irish Siren, or Siren for short. I’m a university student & writer, sharing poems and essays about deconstructing from evangelical Christianity, my new life in Ireland, Irish citizenship & my journey of sexual discovery. Come on in—I don’t bite. 😉

Haven’t watched nearly enough films lately to do a proper #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday post, but I did watch Pressure (2026) from Anthony Marss. Oh my God, lads, let me tell you… this film was SO good! Honestly, I was not expecting to love it as much as I did. 😍🎬

Thank you for all the love and lovely feedback. ❤️ I just write from the heart. Sometimes it’s a long one, sometimes it’s only a few lines. Sometimes it’s a poem, sometimes just a thought that’s spilled out onto the page.

Following up on my writings yesterday, this song has always meant so much to me. It’s about domestic violence, but for me, it has always carried a deeper meaning. When I was 13, I was on a very dangerous path. I’m so thankful to my moms for giving me a “Safe Place to Land.” youtu.be/Ht2NCrlghS4?...

The Family God Gave Me: I was thirteen when I was adopted. I came from the South, from a Southern Baptist world where faith was woven into everything. Then I moved north, into a family I had never imagined having. And somehow, I thought God had brought me there.

What scene makes you emotional no matter how many times you see it? The ending of "Instant Family". Not to get TOO personal here, but this was my story. When I was adopted by my "moms" @drjayunbound.bsky.social and @msbonnielynne.bsky.social . Whole court room scene is very accurate.

I’ve been home and mostly in isolation with COVID since the weekend. Had to cancel my gig last night. The good news is I’m back to my prime form in Rocket League. And I don’t even have my weed and Cheetos this time around. 😂

1/ I was born to foreign parents in the United States, many years after September 11, 2001. I never saw the towers fall or planes fly into buildings. But one of my parents was a firefighter who lived—and still lives—with PTSD from that day. Always fun for a family.

This was a song I always used to transition from my “good Christian girl” daytime headspace to my “evening headspace” for my "Sex With Maddi" show. Always worked like a charm! My partner heard it the other day, and was like, “What the hell?!?” 😂 Shocked her with this one youtu.be/EqQuihD0hoI?...

I'll say this. I never formed a Boston accent, although my twin sister developed one in no time. Same house. Same school. Same friends. But our dialects were on different paths

The Irish Siren @irishplotline.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
I was going to do this dialect quiz everyone is doing, then saw 60 questions. F that. Pretty sure it would be inaccurate anyway. I grew up in West Tennessee. At 13, I was sent to live with my aunt in Boston. Now at 18, I am transplanted here in Europe, and I’m told my voice and dialect will change.

Knives Out is a unique film. Being a murder mystery, you’d think it would be a one-and-done film. But the dialogue is so well crafted and the performances are so good, it’s such a fun rewatch. I pick up something new every time. #filmsky #movies #letterboxdfriday #thefilmbird

Happy Friday, my friends! It’s been a good 24 hours or so. Watched Knives Out (one of my favourite films) last night and had some Thai takeaway. Woke up fresh as a daisy this morning, got my slightly overdue content finished and uploaded. Fingers crossed it gets approved so I get my 💶!

As her slutty daughter, I am proud of my slutty mum. 🤣 Jokes aside, I love this approach to reclaiming the word and owning it by outwardly wearing the label. Future therapist in me thinks it is healthy. And she and her boyfriend have enlightened me on what a stag and vixen are. 🤣
