I'm shook. After 11 years living in the south, I've just discovered that they call pencil sharpeners "toppers" or "parers" 😭😭😭.

What is this nonsense?! I'd only just come round to 'runners' for 'trainers' but this is a step too far. Even my own Donegal husband is in camp topper!
To whom it may concern,

What the feck is going on in Kerry?!

I want to credit the map-maker/survey owner, but alas they are an anonymous Redditor so I cannot.

As Israel continues its Gaza genocide, sports fans & athletes worldwide stand with the Palestinian struggle for freedom, justice and equality and call for accountability.

Join them. Tell @Reebok you pledge to #BoycottReebok, sponsor of Israeli apartheid!

It rumbles on. Someone is now doing an official survey and they're going to geographically map the results. God I love nerds! 🤓

No.

It's either 'morla' or 'mawla' depending on where you are

Today would have been my Daddy's 73rd birthday, the first since we lost him in June.

Now, I'm not saying he's pulling strings on his first heavenly birthday, but you can't tell me there isn't some sort of divine intervention happening in the Aviva right now!

Truly shocking 🙄
“Aontú has sacked the leader of its youth wing and dismissed five other members after it learnt of the existence of ­secret WhatsApp groups where some Ógra Aontú members posted racist and antisemitic comments.”

Be warned, the messages detailed in this article are absolutely vile.

There is no justice in the British system, only blood on their hands.

Remembering today and always the 14 innocent boys and men intentionally massacred by the British state on the streets of Derry 💔

Anyway, given he actually does have a bit of sporting pedigree, I wonder does Jim Gavin know there's an opening at Ibrox? 🤔

There's an official driving school out taking lessons in Donegal Town in a Red Weather Warning. The mind boggles 🤯

Power gone here in Donegal since 3:30pm. Conditions at that stage already felt like they warranted a Red warning, even though it's only just officially kicked in! Could be a long night ahead 😬

1. Connolly. 2. Humphreys. 3. Gavin.

Regardless, there will be a horrendously low turnout in this election. Little to inspire on show here.

Are the rude and obnoxious spectators at the Ryder Cup also Trump supporters I wonder?

I've always loved the Ryder Cup but this one is just hitting different. I don't want the Europeans to show any grace and decorum now - I want them to celebrate every single point or putt right in the faces of those vile, MAGA asshole fans. GO EUROPE 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺

Ahhh I'm going to miss The Traitors so much 😭 Fair play to RTÉ, brilliant production and far exceeded other countries' editions I've watched. Wonderful host, the whole thing felt incredibly Irish. Just fab 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
