C'mere #SpéirGorm and #SpéirGhorm, might anybody have any leads on a Dublin-based admin-y type job? Ideally with a charity or nonprofit but really anywhere that kind of makes the world a better place? #JobFairy

If I were Denmark I would simply agree to sell Greenland to Trump, take his money, then put up a sign that says:

"Greenland ➡️".

And have it point to a tunnel which I have cleverly painted onto a wall.

Not exaggerating when I say that at least half the rooms available on daft within my budget are owner occupied and only available five nights a week. I don't know if someone somewhere is counting how many properties are available in a given location but these ones shouldn't be counted

Ten years ago I went to Terry Pratchett’s memorial service and was given, among other things, a tin of dried frog pills. A little while ago I decided to eat them, and I’ve just finished the tin. I’m pretty sure they were just mints. I certainly didn’t notice any traces of students.

Any recommendations for books in Irish that are not of a difficulty that makes them impenetrable for a learner but challenging enough to give plenty opportunities to look up words or phrases? Not textbooks, more like novels etc. - I've a few graphic novels but ideally something longer. #Gaeilge

the funny thing about these lectures, which i would love to give this person a bullhorn to yell in minneapolis right now, is that a harris administration would have kept increasing funding for ICE despite the certainty a right wing president was eventually going to inherit it. we tied our own noose

Boycott Estée Lauder now! Its owner is the oligarch pushing for the annexation of Greenland. Boycott their owned brands whilst you’re at it.

Still unreasonably furious about the ending of Merlin. And while I wouldn't say I loved How I Met Your Mother, it was fun enough until the finale and the last twenty minutes completely destroyed everything that came before it.
What show that you absolutely loved do you think had a super disappointing ending?

I'll start.

Veronica Mars. I'm still mad.

Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

Fun fact: "Lovers' Walk" in Cork has nothing to do with amorous feelings, but is a jingle-jangle mis-translation of Siúl na Lobhar "lepers' walk", i.e. the area into which leprous people were confined, just like in Lepers' Town.
