Sometimes I really feel bad for straight Irish women. In the men’s changing room today there were more skid marks than the Nurburgring. Ladies, ye deserve better, honestly

I love the gym. So many great machines targeting every muscle group that people can use to check their phones.

"There’s no genuine, citizen-driven demand to ban veggie burgers or sausages – just a meat industry push to protect its profit margins from a rising tide of dietary change” - Joel Scott-Halkes, @weplanetint.bsky.social

I’ve had to hibernate my account on LinkedIn again because I just can’t handle it. If it isn’t the mind numbing hustle culture posts, or the truly terrible life advice, it’s the constant stream of recruiters offering me half my salary and worse conditions and telling me it’s an opportunity

Hi. It's me. I'm here to gently ask if you've been giving yourself grace? Patience? Self-care?
You've got this. You are enough, and you deserve all the good things.

The funny thing is I genuinely couldn’t give less of a shit about Donald Trump going to town on Bill Clinton’s saxophone. It’s literally the least objectionable thing I’ve learned about that man in the last decade. Plus, it doesn’t surprise me about either of those two men, like, at all.

No matter how nice it is, if someone compliments you, you must immediately say “What? This? Penney’s, hun” even if it’s designer, you must insist it was a bargain. Otherwise notions will be declared. #speirgorm

I just learned that the right wing crazies were calling for a boycott for this movie because it’s “woke” and I’m still laughing at how ridiculous they are
Dan Trachtenberg has done it again. Predator Badlands is a great sci fi action movie. Elle Fanning (& everyone else) is fantastic in it, the story is genuinely fun, the visuals are stunning. Well worth a watch.

Alt: Elle Fanning, playing Thia in Predator Badlands, stands in a desolate and dusty scene in black armour. She’s beaten, with dishevelled blond hair in a bob. Three dots, the tell-tale sign of a predator weapon, moves slowly up her chest toward her neck. She looks up slowly at the person aiming for her.

Joyce Carol Oates absolutely reading Elon Musk for filth is pretty incredible, but something I'd point out is his feigned interest in games, and how fake that was, paying people to boost his accounts and play for him, and the rare time we actually got to see him play, he was absolutely miserable.

Good morning Bluesky. What's the most ridiculous thing that you've been told is "gay"? Or at least "gay when a man does it"?
I'll start: birthday parties.

Very good article. I’d love to learn Irish. I keep telling myself I’ll do it, I even tried in college but 1 person in the class put me off & I shouldn’t’ve let him. Now I regret not being able to speak it. The shame of being bad at it in school keeps me from it but I should face the fear & do it.
The Irish language is in an all-time underfunding crisis, with Gaeltacht housing ever more unaffordable and record secondary school exemptions. Rather than lowering our expectations, we need to fight for Irish and for everyone’s chance to access it m.independent.ie/opinion/naoi...
Naoise Dolan: We need to create an Ireland where everyone can become fluent in Irish
On a grassroots level, it could not be clearer: Irish people want to learn Irish. An island-wide Údarás na Gaeltachta study found last year that 74pc wish to improve their level.
