It’s a rough day for a wild swim at Curracloe but we still got in and had great fun! Much needed time with family and nature at a time when I am reflecting on my future and what path to take in my career. Maybe it’s restlessness or maybe I just need to move on. Either way I’ll figure my path 🤔😌
Lol there’ll be some in Irish higher education very unhappy with this 😂 oh dear oh dear 😂
BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV is set to effectively disband Opus Dei in the coming weeks.

This would be the most sweeping internal reform of his pontificate — and a dramatic continuation of Pope Francis’s legacy.
NEW: Pope Leo Set To Break Up Opus Dei
If Pope Leo does indeed approves a plan that effectively dissolves Opus Dei’s structure, it would be the most significant internal action of his short pontificate to date.

A final message of hope from the brilliant Jane Goodall! We can all find our place and meaning in life at any point in our lives. I hope this fine lady is resting well after a brilliant life. youtube.com/shorts/kIej4...

Always a great start to the UCD Certificate in Safety and Health at Work. Best of luck to the class of 2025/26 as they begin their journey with us! Congratulations to Angela Kane for her well deserved Peter A Start Gold Medal from the class of 2024/25! @ucddublin.bsky.social
And the UCD Staff Community Choir returned today to start its 9th year together! 🎉🥰
My Mam would’ve been 79 today, she’s gone nearly 8 years yet I still feel her presence in her kitchen so I always leave roses for her here so she knows we celebrate her all the time. Happy Birthday Mam 😘🎉🎂
Perfect day for a swim at Curracloe after a hectic first week back teaching! Self care is so important as we need to look after ourselves so we can look after our students as they start their new journeys with us!
Peace and quiet! Realising how much I need nature in my life on this holiday. Hmmmmm contemplating improving my French so I could move here 😉
While I didn’t post any photos for #InternationalCatDay we had good news at the vets today!!! He isn’t dying on us just yet and we’re keeping him well so hopefully we’ll have him for longer! He’s already beaten the odds according to our vet and he’s happy and doing well so long may it last! 🥰
Absolutely delighted to present Dr Carolyn Ingram after her successful viva this morning! The best PhD student anyone could ever ask for! Thanks to Dr Ross Neville for chairing and Dr Celine Murrin and Dr John Ford from Queen Mary University London for examining the PhD! 🎉🎊🍾🥂
Yes I have found a vet that will also come to our home so that is a small mercy for sure.
My beloved Sky is dying of cancer. My life is now mostly lying on the floor giving him kisses and cuddles while I still can. He isn’t in pain thankfully, he’s just fading away on us. We’ll help him cross the rainbow bridge. Look after your fur babies peeps, never know how long we’ll have them 😢
🙄 ah the self loathing is so obvious in this article. There probably wouldn’t be a pride if it weren’t for “leather daddies” and “dykes on bikes”. 🪭🏳️‍🌈🎊🏳️‍⚧️🎉🌈 #HappyPrideMonth
Christ. What a ridiculous headline - not surprising though, for the Daily Mail. Managed to find someone in the community who wants to support targeting us/our events.

Pride is for everyone. No one is stopping this person celebrating pride. The old ‘hijacked’ claim is so tedious.

For the life of me I cannot figure out why Donald Trump is trying to destroy higher education
Well now we know why he’s losing weight while seemingly healthy every other way. Our baba has cancer and he’s too old for chemotherapy 😢 so now it’s palliative care by the two daddies to keep him comfortable for now. We’ll look at helping pass over the rainbow bridge in a few weeks 🌈😭 #rainbowbridge
My fur baby Sky is now a little old man in a fur coat! Can cat people give me some tips on how to fatten him up a bit as he’s losing weight. Vet says all ok with him just getting older. He’s fifteen now but still as loveable as ever #catsofbluesky

On February 1, 2014, for the show’s final performance, Panti was the invited guest. A key moment in Ireland’s fight for same-sex marriage, we’ll let the speech do the rest of the talking for us.
