Hearing about a 14 year old, not from a farming background, who won an award for his efforts working on a farm, I wrote about my connection to "The Land" (video games... 😅)

Congratulations to Finn Kelly, his Mammy, the farmers who took him on, and RTE #SpeirGorm ☘️

As always the guys, gals and in between in An Post come in strong with reinforcing physical connection, the value of slowing down and the importance of communication.

My first Christmas card in my new place came through the letterbox from them today, literally from An Post #SpeirGorm #SpéirGhorm

For people/kids with autism, anyone with sensory issues, or anyone who likes to chill with pretty candles, nice lighting, etc. 😘Aldi🫶🕯️have a USB powered RGB lamp for about five or six quid.

The best Aldo buy for anyone who wants a bit of chill in fucking ages. #Bargain #SpeirGorm #SpeirGhorm 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

For those who browse at work; The No Pain in the Ass Pita. A recipe I wrote up for my blog yesterday🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Easy as a snack. Two for a big meal for a hungry woman, more for a family. Affordable, tasty and leaves you with plenty of leftovers.

I found time to write, again. That was as I had a wild night all on my ownsome Friday evening. A real let-loose going mental in the kitchen cooking a delicious pita while drinking and dancing.

I've now recovered enough to write the very easy recipe! #SpéirGhorm 🌈

I fell asleep on the couch late afternoon. Woke up to RTE1 telling me about women flying home from Dubai on the regular to represent the parish. Go fund mes, the lot.

For some bizarre reason I had this mixed up with my own life. Imagining me getting go fund mes to take a DIY course and go to Croker

A view from the place I'm doing my DIY Course. Unfortunately not every walk home has had the weather like this. There's been horrific storms and rain, too. And I don't have a hat.

No hat is part of the reason I chopped my hair off. I don't want long hair getting caught up in drills and oils.

Great segment on @news.rte.ie @rteradio1.bsky.social on Drive Time the other day about the problems with masculinity and DIY, among other things.

www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

How men are often afraid to get stuck in as they feel it's something they should know automatically, i.e. shame. #SpéirGhorm
I had my toolbox analysed at my DIY course yesterday. I was told it's very good. The only thing I felt was really missing was a ratchetting screwdriver and a drill (I'll get the drill in Aldo.)

The tutor said what I was really missing was a handsaw. I'll research that!

Had an absolute mare of a day the other day. Busy all morning. The dentist in the afternoon getting holes in my teef filled. The dentist was lovely! A student dentist, even!! Amazing!

Nothing for me to do but treat myself to a candlelight dinner all by myself as no-one is will to do it for me! 🕯️🌈🍽️

I ate dinner a few hours ago. Too big a dinner. I was stuffed to the point of unwell. Now I'm hungry again. Bodies need to learn a little respect.

Want to see Catherine Connolly's road bowling skills. She's had a go at everything else.

New Irish Presidential Pentathlon.

Picture from Cork City, from about ten years ago. I think it was taken between Kent train station and the dock area by the quay. 🍦🐈

Fully predict in seven (fourteen?) years time future presidential candidates will be asked about their keepie uppies.

My Cork Bike Scheme photo that, last I heard, was hanging in the National Transport Authority offices.

I was given a €500 gift voucher for this and for the NTAs usage of my photos from this shoot on "socials" and in their annual report. Unfortunately some media companies are less honest. #SpeirGorm

This may be my conspiracy brain but surely FF are deliberately throwing the Presidential election. Like... Seriously?

God only knows what FG are up to. Probably something with AI, data centres and Uisce Eireann water waste given the level of soul and empathy on show.

The Leisureplex (The Coliseum) in Cork, a number of years ago. Just given planning permission to be turned into a hotel.

It's desperate that semi-delinquent teens, today, have no smokey, Lynx smelling pool halls filled with Puzzle Bobble, Time Crisis and DDR arcade machines.

Connolly the clear winner in that by virtue of being the only one who isn't a complete pain in the fucken hole. 🇮🇪🍑

In the distant future there'll be psionic leaders micro-dosing 20th and 21st century brain worms to help them lead their worlds.

For the day that's in it, with Storm Amy. ☔

Posted an excerpt from my trans fiction novel. This featuring something based on a real life experience where a man said he'd pray for me to get pregnant 🏳️‍⚧️🤣 and to keep trying. ☑️ Fair enough! Good advice! 🇮🇪

Mainly a story about drinking in bars🍻 and having fun nodyesyes.substack.com/p/toni-with-...

The old FÁS building in Cork. Knocked ten(?) years ago, with lots of plans from BAM (who else?)

The site has been sitting empty for an age, with nothing looking like it's happening. This after Sample Studios, an arts group using part of the building, were kicked out for "Construction."
