Michael D made an album. My pal Myles did the music for it. Being cheeky sent it to the Áras asking could he possibly sign it for me.
And it came today, of all days.

Imagine the author of that series going after those pirating her IP in shops all over London and getting them closed down with even a fraction of as much rabid determination she goes after Trans people.
Rachel Reeves just thanked Joe Powell in the budget for his representations on high street tax evasion and pledged more resources to track down "fraudulent business owners who vanish without paying their taxes". This is one of the issues Joe raised with the chancellor.
What's up with the Harry Potter shops in central London?

London Centric's investigation into their finances was raised in the House of Commons by Kensington and Bayswater Labour MP Joe Powell. He asked ministers what it will take to get HMRC officials to check the shops are paying their taxes.

This is my 6th year posting this same message. Black Friday is a nonsense with often pretend discounts on stuff you probably don’t need. We’ll do as we always do at this time and increase the 1% of all income we give to Women’s Aid to 10% on web sales over the weekend. Fuck Black Friday. #speirgorm

A lot of people replying to this thread want to see a Muppets Knives Out and the only human is Daniel Craig, and you know what? @rianjohnson.bsky.social should just make that movie without a despotic presidential decree.

I took all of your advice.

The new boards are now live in the SLATED Landmark Collection.

Feel free to point out any errors. It was a bit of a rush job.

Reposts would be amazing.

The battery on this poxy bastarding thing needs changing and it keeps beeping every ten seconds. I’ve stuck implements into every orifice on it and pushed and pulled and twisted and slid and all to no avail. If anyone knows how to get it off and could tell me I would be greatly appreciative.

Scenes at the Dublin City Council budget meeting last night. The histrionics from the ruling group betray their guilty consciences. I’ll also note that champion of the working class Mannix Flynn went missing during the vote, meaning the ruling group won 31-30. I’m sure it’s just a coincidence.

A fantastic book. If you’re stuck for a present idea you’ll not find a better one than this.

1. Return of the Jedi
2. The Empire Strikes Back
3. Star Wars : A New Hope
4. Rogue One
5. The Force Awakens
6. Solo
7. The Last Jedi
8. Revenge of the Sith
9. The Phantom Menace
10. The Rise of Skywalker
11. Attack of the Clones

top half of that list could be a totally different shape tomorrow tho
haven’t seen ROS or Solo but this seems like a pretty ball-knowing list from Pritzker, particularly if he volunteered the name “Star Wars” rather than “A New Hope”

Ah here.. they can find love and happiness in the sci fi fantasy aisle in chapters, but you think I can find a copy of Assassins Quest by Robin Hobb? Not a hope.

Isn’t this lovely though?
Something very lovely happened in our Science Fiction & Fantasy section the other week… 🥹💍✨

CONGRATULATIONS MAEVE & ADAM!!

Wishing you many years of happiness, adventure and shared stories – may your life together be even more magical than the books you browse 💫📚❤️

This is who she was.
Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best.

Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...
Carrie Fisher was the blueprint.
Protect your people. Call out the predators.

New cuteness level unlocked. I present to you Apollo, my friend's Bernese mountain dog/golden retriever mix puppy. He'll definitely grow into that name.

The Brits and the unionists in the north of Ireland MO
“Somebody says you have no language, so you spend twenty years proving that you do.”
This constant relitigating of whether Farage/Trump/etc are racists is exhausting given the overwhelming weight of evidence.
It reaffirms the Toni Morrison quote on the function of racism - to tire out everyone on having to prove & re-prove the 'if' at the expense of consequences. He is. So now what?

I implore someone, anyone, in the media…

Do your job

And the next time you have Farage on, please ask him directly:

…what were the motivations behind this?

In Ireland, there are 122 landlords with 101+ tenancies. A further 130 with 50-101 tenancies. There is quite literally no need for anyone to own that much property.

As per the next re-post I'm going to share after this, they might not all be US/US-based but rather English language troll farm / bot accounts being to target Ireland. I've seen some hints of this on FB comments too...

Digging into the archives, I discovered my grandfather was the first generation not to speak Irish as his mother tongue, and that he grew up with a famine survivor - his grandmother.
History was so much closer than I thought. My essay this weekend: www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...
The best Irish stories are often about death. My grandfather stole his own funeral
The history of Ireland – the hunger, the loss of the language – was so much closer than I knew. The change had been so fast from my grandfather’s life to mine

These are the "voters" Martin, O'Callaghan, Harris and the rest of them are pivoting to racism to please.
If ever two groups needed reminding that Twitter and Facebook are not real life, it's journalists and politicians.
