@TheCinesthetic This scene in Goodfellas is totally unscripted. Martin Scorsese’s mom was just told to act like a “typical mom” and improvised cooking a meal at 2am. Incredible acting!.

@NiallHarbison That is 100% a huge smile from Shaq. The look that says “thank you for giving me a chance at life.” 🥹

@TheCleanCarClub So you locked a distressed dog in a hot car just for content, involving all sorts of impractical tools to get it out again. Shameful.

@SkySportsF1 Terrible form. This is Martin Brundle’s gridwalk. Has been for eternity. It’s kind of like being invited to a party at someone’s house and when the host wants to meet you telling them to piss off.

My blood boils watching this dickhead jumping off in Salthill for a laugh. Intentionally endangering the lives of Emergency Services, RNLI, Coast Guard and anyone who has to rescue him if he gets into difficulty. This should carry a large fine and full liability for rescue.
The 3pm station reports show winds have increased again and now reached red levels in Belmullet already with 91kmh sustained wind and gusts up to 119kmh #StormIsha sadly this video from Salthill Galway shows how some people don’t heed warnings!!

@NiallHarbison ❤️ Big love to her Niall. She’s in the best company and I’m hoping the meds work 💊 🤞🏼. Time is the most precious thing we have - if she could speak I’m sure she’d tell you that there’s nowhere else she’d rather be or with than you. Enjoy the sunset you two 🌄.

@NiallHarbison I’m so sorry Niall. For one brief moment in time the universe aligned and you both crossed over. She left knowing what it was to be loved, cared for and experience joy. Wherever she now, I’m sure Tina and co. will give her the best welcome. 🌈 🐕.

@AMAZlNGNATURE Animals are often put in these scenarios to generate clicks and content which gets passed off as wholesome - both animals are distressed here and I suspect whoever’s filming this set it up, so obviously didn’t help the cat.

An utter travesty that this is even happening. A violent gang with a list of convictions a mile long. A funeral with a screwdriver and a torch as alter gifts, and a poem that read: “RIP Dean. You know the score, get on the floor, don’t be funny, give me the money.” .Give the.

“At a hearing on Thursday, Judge Martin Nolan said Elkudir did not deserve to go to prison and handed him a fully-suspended sentence of 18 months.”. Martin. Nolan. Again. And we wonder why so many victims don’t come forward? Absolute disgrace.

@nationaltrust Wow, one thing I’ll say with so many of these replies is the hope that people have, and how special this was. Reminds me of Penelope Wilton’s beautiful line in After Life.

@NiallHarbison The universe works in strange ways and I reckon you two were both meant to cross somehow. 🌌 However brief your time together was - she found love, comfort and happiness with you. Her legacy will live on with her hospital and all the lives she touched online around the world. 🌍.

@BestFightClip That’s enough to kill a dog. It’s clearly suffering from ethanol toxicity which is extremely dangerous. Should be rushing to a vet rather than making a video they think is amusing.

@irishexaminer When the enemy tries to threaten and intimidate you, you’re often on the right side of history. We did the right thing to recognise Palestine. Schoolyard bully tactics won’t sit well with us.

@NiallHarbison However brief, she ended her life knowing what it felt like to be loved and cared for, to have friends around her and to give that love back. Wherever she is now, I’m sure she’ll get a welcome like no other from Tina and the gang. 🌈 🐕.

@SkyNews “Unintended strike”? Lies. They knew exactly what they were doing. The aid workers were in a deconflicted zone, the travel movements were coordinated with the IDF and the vehicles were branded very clearly with the WCK logo.

@rtenews Wrong message as a tech hub? Oh please - these threats are ridiculous. 143 countries worldwide recognise Palestine - they’ll be hard pressed to find somewhere else with a corporation tax of 12.5%, coupled with the fact we’re the only English-Speaking country in the EU, a massive.

@nationaltrust This is simply awful. It’s one of the most pictured trees in the world and such an iconic symbol. 🌳 .Maybe a silly question here (and hopeless optimism), but I wonder if there’s something that can be done here with a team to help salvage it in some way?.

@Maria111316 Peter Mark is a well known upmarket salon with the prices to boot. Their costs are transparent and regardless of age, you’re still paying for the benefit of a stylist’s time, extensive training and creative expertise. It’s a bit like going to The Shelbourne and complaining about.

🚨 #StormEowyn is going to be huge. The likes we haven’t seen in years. Which means we’re almost guaranteed to see some dickheads posting themselves diving off the tower in Salthill, Galway despite national warnings.
That high resolution AROME model out to 9am shows gusts I’ve never seen this model show before for Ireland and this model is one of the best there is for Ireland. Anyone saying this is just another storm is in for a rude awakening. This will be an historic storm. #StormÉowyn

@Katherine_973x 😂 This isn’t any old plane part, it’s BA’s oldest 777 in their fleet. Retired in March ‘20 as the pandemic hit and that plane (G-ZZZA) was called “Sir Frank Whittle”. Clocked up over 100k flight hours since its first flight in ‘95. That’s a piece of history there! 👏✈️🇬🇧.

@kittydisks I reckon it’s all planned. He steps in to “save” it and plays the hero. Trump was probably dictating on the phone like “We are fortunate that President Trump, the greatest President in the history of Presidents 🖐️🪗🤚 make sure to emphasise that part, they don’t make them like.

@nytimes I probably would have done the same thing if I’m honest. If I had the chance to do something and I didn’t, it’d haunt me forever. Either it faces certain death if left in the water, or else it at least has a chance if it’s removed. He was trying to help it.

@JohnAnnHiggins Hah! Except he’s not in prison for his beliefs though, is he? He’s in prison for consistently contravening a court order to keep away from a school full of children, where he continues to trespass.

Working for a major Irish bank’s call centre a decade ago, I had a distressed caller “ready for the bridge”. Contacted the police with the floor manager. Told to take a breather after it all for 10 mins. Month end stats came around and I was given a “talking to” for being.
