Lol, the algorithm so bad that my liking of posts roasting ed sheeran has lead to me being aggressively advertised tickets to a him and Coldplay double bill of milquetoast mediocrity.

And it really emboldens and ratifies the exact sort of horrible racist cunts who exist in comment sections under any post about the achievements of Irish people who happen not to be white.

What I find hilarious about Zohran Mamdani is that he is essentially just bringing rural Irish parish politics to the big city. He's quite literally fixing the road. And I get it now! If I could I'd vote for him forever! He'll never get to as many local funerals as the bauld Willie O'Dea, though.

We have baby friendly screenings in my local cinema. Sound down. Lights up. Everyone on board with crying. Anything else is unfair on everyone.

When they call the final of a sport that only the US gets to participate in The World Series. It's no wonder they get so confused on a global social media platform.

Listen, you do what you have to do. In my experience seeing a movie with a baby is more about getting out of the house and putting structure on the day. The film becomes secondary. Still, if it's something I really want to experience, I get babysitting now she's big enough

Or parents should have them if they choose to bring their babies to the cinema (which i do regularly, which is why we have baba ear muffs). This is not a situation you could end up in accidentally.

In-show time only a year has passed. I'm starting to think Charles is doing a bucket of coke between every episode. Inhaling all the profits.

Putting aside the believability of the 41 year old masquerading as a 27 year old. The financials of Empirical are inscruitable. Every episode starts with the company in dire straits and ends with a million dollar best seller.

The sign that my baba is over her cough is this morning she pissed the bed 😅 Her morning nappies have been light recently despite the amount of nursing and water drinking she's been doing. Some little bug was churning and burning up all her reserves. But now, she's pissing to beat the band again!

I had a dream that millennial parents, in their search for originality, had combined the names Aoife and Fiadh to make a new Irish name (Fífa) that was sweeping the nation.

This is exactly correct. Regardless of one's prima facie views on nuclear, it is a ridiculous suggestion for Ireland. Decades before it generates power, decades more before it justifies the cost, and a massive opportunity cost versus investing in rapidly improving renewable generation and storage.

When this happens in a country with a budget surplus of €9 billion, it is absolutely a choice of governance.

John Hannah and Gwen have zero chemistry. Most of the time it's because Hannah is throwing Pepe Le Pew levels of woo at a plank of wood. But occasionally it's because they are both playing the charmingly befuddled one.

Of course, the real tell is that no-one actually knows how to use the depth of field settings on their phones to get these perfect foreground/background shots AI loves to create. If this was real I'd be able to count the Barman's ear hairs.

My pet peeve in sci-fi movies is scientists being portrayed as not understanding their own fields because the audience don't. Yes we're watching Interstellar again.

Irish people: St. Patrick's Day presents such a stereotypical portrayal of Ireland that doesn't reflect its modern, vibrant culture. Irish people when they see Americans setting Leprechaun traps: You fools! You've doomed us all! The children will be changelings. The crops will wither in the field.

Having now had a child the implied meaning of "for sale: baby shoes, never worn" has shifted to, we forgot about these in a drawer and now they are too small.

Since having a baby, I've learned a lot of new science. Like the minimum amount of sleep a human needs, and how to get less than that. Laughter is the best medicine if it's from a baby. Germs only exist for as long as you remember them.

The crying reached a specific pitch and I relented and sat her up. But she's only cheating herself, I tell her. She blows a raspberry. Pretty good comic timing for a 7 month old.

9 panels on our roof in Dublin covered 89% of our electricity usage last year. And that's with a bunch of inefficiencies in our system such as still using an electric shower. Also we were home with a baby near full time for half the year.
