Think I can see us holding 0-0 for first half, getting our hopes up and then crumbling to a 2-0..

Beautiful logo. I keep meaning to schedule time to go in and check those archives. The catalogue has few mentions of my Grandmother ( + @stane.bsky.social's mother) Margaret Erraught in those Council for Status of Women discussions.

That new public colonnade on Liffey Street Upper? Motel One wants to close it off, a slap in the face for those who value public space. Here’s my Planning Observation, feel free to write your own: bit.ly/CufULS

I was just marveling at the register to vote ads. Topical ads?! What is this.

Happy to report Heather has made it to the N11

Holly Fur @hollyfur.bsky.social · 17d

I've only seen Gavin (every possible lamp post) and good amount of Connolly. Heather currently MIA.

Good reminder... The election shouldn't be a free for all to get your 5 mins of air time.

Alan Kinsella @electionlit.bsky.social · 17d

People have been able to get nominated in previous elections, those tended to have a record of doing something in the community or are known. So the process works.
It just doesn't work if you're an extremist or have no record of doing anything positive for the community. #aras25

I've been informed Heather was spotted in Limerick so maybe prioritizing beyond the pale.

Holly Fur @hollyfur.bsky.social · 17d

Not directly around us as our local NIMBY residents association bans them 🙄🙄 but all along the N11

I really really really REALLY want the US who love their Irish heritage to see who's after winning #traitorsirl and what this country is really and actually like these days.

Gender, skin colour, you name it. What a fucking statement of trust and faith in people.
