I'm shook. After 11 years living in the south, I've just discovered that they call pencil sharpeners "toppers" or "parers" 😭😭😭.

What is this nonsense?! I'd only just come round to 'runners' for 'trainers' but this is a step too far. Even my own Donegal husband is in camp topper!

Also, can you imagine a Ryanair flight where everyone has free sky-internet?

Half the plane would be tiktoking their journey, Plane Pricks With Guitars And Fiddles everywhere, nobody would have headphones: it’d be the worst Irish Rail carriage times 100.

Every second flight would have a murder.

I feel like I've timed this baby perfectly, because when It Happens, regardless of the time of day I'll find out immediately because of the night feeds and no daytime work. Small mercies 🙏🏻🙌🏻

Paternity leave is scandalously bad in this country. My husband is back to work today after his two-week leave period. Having had a c-section, I can't drive for 6 weeks, can't lift my toddler for at least 6 weeks and still can't do much more than the bare minimum physically...

Our new daughter arrived safely earlier today 🩷.

A wonderful, last-minute gift to end a really difficult year with losing daddy unexpectedly in June.

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and peaceful 2026 🎉🍾🎆

Irish men in your 40s, what do you want for Christmas?

Particularly, say, if you don't like the usual things recommended like technology, watches, craft brewing etc, and your main interests are football, coaching, reading, history and geography???

Im a Toy Show die hard, but I'm verrrrry disappointed in all the video messages tonight. Feels like a bit of a cop out. Surely there are plenty of wee die hard fans of D-List Irish celebs that could have showed up in person?!

Mother of God this draw is probably the worst thing I've ever seen on TV.

When you think FIFA can't sink any lower, they set a new bar.

Minding my own business in town today, and a complete stranger came over to me to say, "ohhhh someone's going to have a new baby for Christmas by the looks of things!"

Now in fairness my bump is the size of a smart car, but still, was there any need?!!

To whom it may concern,

Live results from the sharpener/parer/topper debate can be found here:

What the feck is going on in Kerry?!

I want to credit the map-maker/survey owner, but alas they are an anonymous Redditor so I cannot.

As Israel continues its Gaza genocide, sports fans & athletes worldwide stand with the Palestinian struggle for freedom, justice and equality and call for accountability.

Join them. Tell @Reebok you pledge to #BoycottReebok, sponsor of Israeli apartheid!

It rumbles on. Someone is now doing an official survey and they're going to geographically map the results. God I love nerds! 🤓

Today would have been my Daddy's 73rd birthday, the first since we lost him in June.

Now, I'm not saying he's pulling strings on his first heavenly birthday, but you can't tell me there isn't some sort of divine intervention happening in the Aviva right now!

Truly shocking 🙄
“Aontú has sacked the leader of its youth wing and dismissed five other members after it learnt of the existence of ­secret WhatsApp groups where some Ógra Aontú members posted racist and antisemitic comments.”

Be warned, the messages detailed in this article are absolutely vile.

There is no justice in the British system, only blood on their hands.

Remembering today and always the 14 innocent boys and men intentionally massacred by the British state on the streets of Derry 💔
