@mackeogk @implausibleblog Yes, Kay, terrifying. Not only a coup in the US but also the unlawful abuse of power in Europe. Who or what can stop this hostile takeover?

Beautiful tribute to the exquisite #MarianneFaithfull.
"There is something very special about Parisian light. On the day I met her, a late spring sun had just cleared the rooftops opposite Marianne Faithful’s apartment..." Next, Joe Kearney meets the great singer and Sixties rock muse -- and shares a Kilkenny memory or two @RTERadio1

#ValentinesDay in a boys boarding school...
“What are three hundred boys to do? It’s as though nobody saw this coming. And you can’t just get up and leave…” When Love Story Came To School is first up this morning from Feargal Ó Dubhghaill -- on film night in Feb 1978 in Cistercian College, Roscrea... #ValentinesDay @rte

@baldoyle55 Well said, Nessan, they should have applied this to ALL countries they colonised/meddled in. It could have avoided the turmoil, war, rape & devastation responsible for the mass movements of people. But like you, I welcome migrants, full stop.

absolutely marvellous work, well done to all involved and best of luck in the Global Citizenship Education world
Finalists in the Global Citizenship Education category, the Forgotten Women Project made a quilt to recognise contributions Irish women have made to science. 🧵 #STARAwards2025 @WWETBofficial

@philipnolan1 this is the most despicable, abhorrent & sickening libel/slander ever. My heart goes out to you.
Just a normal day here. Apparently, my wife left me when she saw me raping a boy. Any time you want to dig in and defend me, feel free, but you actually seldom do. I can’t do this by myself.

Brilliant film Ann (2022) goes through that day, hour by hour. Needs to be seen on TV and cinemas on each anniversary. Let us never forget...
‘Everybody knew, nobody said’. #OTD in 1984, Ann Lovett lay down in the rain in the grotto behind St Mary's Church, Granard & gave birth to a full-term baby boy. She was found alive around 4pm by three schoolboys but died later that day. #DIBLives

#MarianneFaithful was a sublime presence in Maynooth for some time. What a legend. What a loss. For Marianne Faithfull, Ireland was where one of the most misunderstood women in music could make sense of her life
