Cork to California and back again - happily home after over 25 years in the US. Alleged graphic designer. Talks nonsense about #LFC and ADV #motorbikes, and a little less so about #elitedangerous and #munsterrugby

Baltic outside! Was warmer this morning when I headed off to work at 7am in the dark than it is now. So to warm you up, here’s a photo from this time 8 years ago on top of Mt. Tam in Northern California, when it was probably 20 degrees celsius…
Ireland is full...

...of brilliant people like Edwin Edogbo who add so much to our land professionally and culturally.
The IRFU have had to limit replies on every post, including Edwin Edogbo, due to the blue tick racist filth.

When you look at the account locations — USA, UK, or "proxied" — alongside the Irish sadcases.

Everyone in real life is delighted for Edwin.

Prendergast is just... not... great. At all. #IREvITA

Love these sort of "apologies."

I'm not sorry I said it, I'm sorry you got offended by it.
Ratcliffe sorry immigrant comments 'offended people'
Manchester United co-owner Jim Ratcliffe says he is sorry if he has "offended some people" by saying the United Kingdom has been "colonised by immigrants".

What I've learned in the first 15 minutes: Sunderland are the greatest promoted team of all time, each one of their players are proper players, they're up there with PSG and other tremendous unbeaten teams.

Also, I think they're playing Liverpool, but I'm not sure about that.

I’m too depressed to check if this is correct but assuming it can’t possibly be… can it?

My issue with today isn't that we lost. It's that I'm getting used to the losses. We're defending champions, we're Liverpool Football Club.
Premier League form. CL qualification for next season getting harder each game.

Florian should kick him squarely up the arse there.

Worrying first 15 minutes. The front three of Ekitike, Gakpo, and Salah look asleep. Mo especially… love him to bits but the absolute cliff he’s gone off this season is cataclysmic. This has a feeling or Wirtz against the world.

I sincerely don't get Sam Prendergast. Foot of gold, everything else is questionable on a good day, but the IRFU brain trust keep shoving him into the firing line time and time again. Decision making is utterly insane. #FRAvIRE

Yep. 👏
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

A ride has a way of compounding the beauty of a good view — it just keeps coming, mile after mile, turning a great scene into an unforgettable journey.

Sunny roads, open water, and nothing else to chase!

See this daily while commuting as well - people just cheerfully watching Netflix or Youtube while driving. One this morning was all over the road on a dual carriageway, weaving and doing 80 in a 120. When I passed them, wife glanced over and said they had phone in hand, laughing away at a video.
The amount of people I've seen watching shit on their phones while driving is unbelievable. They're not even trying to hide it. Right up on their dash.

I tell you what, #speirgorm, it's a crying shame that this man couldn't get on the presidential ballot last year. What an absolute fella. What a shining beacon he would have been for Ireland around the world.
Former taoiseach Bertie Ahern has said it is "not clear to me" what George Mitchell is being accused of over his appearance in the latest release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein. jrnl.ie/6947568

The latest release of files related to Epstein appeared to show that he and Mitchell corresponded via email between 2010 and 2013.

"It's what the people want. Or at least they'll want it when we tell them they want it. Or they won't but we'll pretend they want it anyway. Or at least previously wanted it. Sure people are morons, if they weren't complaining about this they'd just be banging on about coddle or tripe and drisheen."
We need a strong democratic leadership to take us into a military alliance that the majority of the country doesn’t want to join | the Irish Times view on why the democratic thing to do is to ignore the will of the people

He makes the people happy.
