It sounds like one doesn't it!!

Let everything rot (and don't provide decent services) and then blame the people who don't live in cities!

I still associate Bobby Kerr today with An Post, my brain seems to refuse anyone else 👀🤣

Aside from repeated boil water notices, I could never drink the water from my taps in between! The colour and smell!! Then we move on to the lack of public transport! 😡

Example of basic lack of services! Roscommon has a 1 track train line (trains pull in for the one coming the other). People can't get to TUS for a 9am lecture. The 8.10/8.25 train gets into Athlone just before 9 (10-20mins to college), or the train that gets in just after 7am! If no delays!

I’ve be involved in various capacities in counter disinformation and counter hate speech activity on Irish online spaces for over 8 years.

I have never witness anything as bad as the abuse directed at Senator Eileen Flynn… it’s gamergate levels of targeted & coordinated harassment.

Should a young person be discriminated against because of their accent? #Addthe10th

Exactly!!! We will finish it out but we were both so disappointed with the replacement!

I'm on it now and will say we are not enjoying the new detective!

Hoping to start this weekend! Am stuck into The Pitt at the moment and also watching Patience

🤣🤣

I love it! I head at 7pm Sundays as I drive at 5.30am. I've noticed more and more I've moved from 9pm towards 8.30pm on other nights too 🤣

I do wonder if there is wider reporting with more breakdowns across all subjects? If not, you're right with, why not!

I am also a LIV fan!

You're like me with the early nights :D

Absolutely! There are so many areas to have equity discussions! Not sure if the HEA even report on access to those subjects? For STEM and languages they report a breakdown across gender (percentages taking subjects) and boy/girl/mixed schools providing STEM and language subjects.

Also, don't they run off electricity? Aren't we still dominant with fossil fuels for electricity in Ireland? Still a far way off not being reliant on what comes from abroad to run the stations :(

Absolutely this!!!

Late for you!

Monday, I delivered a lecture on behalf of the National Centre for Inclusive Higher Education to students on the Professional Doctorate in Educational Psychology in Maynooth University. The topic was "Girls and Digital Inclusion." #MaynoothUniversity #SpeirGorm #intersectionality

It was! Not something typical for us! A lovely treat!

They were so lovely and light too! Really impressed!

Six desserts in the shapes of apples and flowers

Instead of an Easter egg, I got my other half these desserts from a local supplier in Castlerea. WOW! Divine! Guess what... they deliver nationwide! I also recommend their cookies! #SpeirGorm #speirghorm #spéirgorm
