Have a goo at a #painting. "Liffey Clouds" came from a time I was in Dublin thinking of Dublin. Which is most of the time. Because it's home. And when I think of home I think of the river and its ever-changing quays. You'll get this view from the Ha'penny Bridge. Or you used to. #SpeirGorm #ArtYear

I find this very moving: a 10-year-old Ukrainian boy who moved to the West of Ireland 2 years ago as a refugee, speaking in Irish of his love of playing Irish music

The very definition of tenderness
My mother is currently minding her mother, and this poem speaks so beautifully to caring for a parent, work done so well by so many people I know - from Jane Clarke’s ‘A Change in the Air’

This ⬇️ by a thousand times.
Have a wee look in the mirror, @time-magazine.bsky.social, and ask yourselves one question. Who was more deserving of Person of the Year - an adjudged sex offender, or a woman who incredibly bravely testified against her rapists? Your shame will live forever.

Every year this Christmas story gives me all the feels …
I reposted this on the actual anniversary but, as always, Toy Show day is the one I'll always associate with this.
The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

Forget the Toy Show or the Barry’s tea ad, when I see this thread doing the rounds, I know Christmas is just around the corner @richycraven.bsky.social
