Away and shite is a brilliant Irish expression. We should use it more.
I went to the wedding of two people who’d been together 15 years - both married before, lived in 1 house, rented out the other. Literally had 2 of everything. Their wedding list read like a teenage lottery winner’s 1st shopping spree. Best item? A set of candle snuffers for £250. Away and shite x
Wedding gift registries or cash in the card is largely pointless these days. When folks were married late teens/early 20s and had nothing then gifts/donating money for their new life had good reason. Two middle managers marrying in their late 30s only deserve a nice card.

I think there should be a separate programme for Saturday’s GAA matches, instead of trying to cram all the highlights into the Sunday Game programme on Sunday night. There’s just too many games to properly analyse and show all the highlights.

Nominate Frances Black for president and get everyone on the left behind her. We don't need a token candidate from each party. Don't split the vote. While we're at it give Michael D a medallion that says he's the GOAT. #SPÉIRGORM

A few things the two racist rapists in the Oval today will never understand:
St. Patrick was an immigrant.
St. Patrick's Day has travelled the world thanks to Irish immigrants.
#StPatricksDay is an immigrant's holiday about an immigrant.

I regret to say there has been a lot of foolishness on some sections the left about #Ukraine, echoing Russian and far-right talking points. (Just as shamefully, the same people supported Assad in Syria). Now is the time to put that foolishness aside. We should all stand with Ukraine.

In journalism it's important to reflect both sides,listen, understand nuance,be aware of your bias
It’s also important to call out facts that aren’t true
Trump suggested Ukraine started the war with Russia
That is not true.Facts matter.If you want to end a war,you need to face up to how it started

Imagine President Roosevelt saying in 1940 that Britain was finished, quoting made up numbers for US aid and then suggesting Churchill was stealing vast sums from the Lend Lease programme. Imagine him using lines - literally - written by Joseph Goebbels.
This is the equivalent.

The BBC is reporting that the shooting is "non-ideological" so you know the shooter is far-right.
The media hasn’t mentioned it much but the shooter who killed 10 people in Örebro in Sweden was a white male who had extreme right-wing politics.
He was a fascist, right-went extremist terrorist.
Right-wing terrorism.

What's come as a shock - to a lot of Irish ppl - in recent yrs is the realisation that we were never looking at 'wild' Irish landscapes but denuded deserts.
I won't lie: after 3 weeks of experiencing almost unimaginably abundant and diverse Costa Rican nature, returning home to the Irish ecological moonscape is a visceral gut punch.
But what Costa Rica shows is that it doesn't have to stay like this: nature CAN return.

When you hear Newstalk pundits saying “we need adults in the room” or “student union politics”, what they mean is “evil and corrupt people are in power and it’s best to join them rather than try to change or oppose anything. Please eat this cheese with me, for I am a small wittle rat”
