Just don't ask me any questions in the morning #Adhdandme

It's a private company/interest group sending material to schools & paid for by private interests, and not endorsed by any official. Endorsment by famously ferocious independent populist business 1st TD.
schools should send to recycling once it comes in the letterbox. #sitkaspruce #speirgorm

My ADHD Origin Story I wrote about having ADHD as an excuse for not having the gumption to sit down and actually be the writer I've always dreamed of being.

Wrote something on substack recently which I'll share here. It has made me feel quite vulnerable posting online, but seeing as hardly anyone uses bluesky I'm not bothered by those here that actually read it:

These are the kinds of things which just need to be said.

"publishers" launching a new "Adopt a sika deer today" campaign shortly #cuteandcuddly

Honestly, O'Connell Street was much more interesting with the tractors on it than the open top buses.

Nah, just old barns, forests, fields and a place called the haunted house but was actually just a disused farm...

Those tractors on o'connell street cost a lot more than a 100k

Will the state act like a democracy and engage in negotiations. Or will it just raid the blockade in the middle of the night and throw all the trucks a compound and treat everyome like bold children? #fuelprotest

I think you can get them in the Korean shop in town. There a staple of elementary schools there

I wish there was a way of just writing 3-400 words...

So does the #fuelprotest mean that half of north Kildare will be on my train to work tomorrow morning? I had a lovely few days off while it lasted.

Deleted LinkedIn because it's cesspit of competitive toxicity about a world of work that is following me home everyday

Critical thinking was in decline before AI There is a tendency, especially in discussions shaped by technological determinism, to blame complex problems on a single, recent cause.

Would you go to prison for something you wrote? The reality today is that many are arrested and prosecuted for the words they have written and shared.

Traveling to #Chengdu in #china tomorrow. Last time I was there I was 26 with a rucksack and hoping for adventure. I remember Dufu's house but that's about it. This trip will be dramatic in a different way. Suggestions for #thingstodoinchengdu!

Create your own voice. Don't wait to be allowed one.

Is there a recognised definition for 'international student'? This post will be a part of a series where I want to discuss this term which is used a lot but is quite ambiguous, while at the same time it impacts how we percieve hundreds of thousands of people.

I wrote about what is an international student on my substack. Take a look!

Exciting to welcome this new journal discussing the wealth and diversity of issues relevant to #highereducation and #intled. Well done to @jlmittelmeier.bsky.social, @selomer42.bsky.social & colleagues for driving this initiative.

I find it is much more rewarding to be distracted than getting the actual stuff finished.

Stop messing around and just write the thing. Just write it. Get off social media. And WRITE!

feeling empty is all part of the process #jobhunting

Someone followed me on twitter.....it's 2025 like.

Transitioning to Ireland, and a little concerned that I will need to find work outside teaching or education. It would genuinely break my heart if I couldn't be involved in education, working with students, helping people become better.

Trying to force myself into a writing habit...

I don't really have anyone to talk to about this and seeing no one seems to use this platform, I can just shout into the void.

I did an interview for a job. I have tried for around 5 or 6 similar roles. Where do all these people start? Where is the bottom rung? Why do people not feel fit to trust me?
#feelinguseless

Shifting country and shifting career... Every time I try to move on or upwards professionally, I feel I have to climb all the way back down a ladder, then try to start climbing another one. It is so frustrating and I am often left to feel humiliated.
