Is everyone enjoying the 1916 census.

Genesis 7:13
“You’re gonna need a bigger boat”

During a picnic, a boy, a girl and their father start to play ball. The father, in a suit, looks rather stiff and out of place.

In the updated scene, the dad, in casual clothes, is really into the game and is reaching high to steal the ball from his son

Wasn't it glorious? And town thronged with people all the same. How on earth did they all get there 🤔

My sister made Easter dinner, which is like Christmas dinner only you swap the Brussels sprouts for asparagus.

Nice to see it so well-maintained. How are the street boxes faring in Cork? They're in bits here in Dublin, An Post have given up cleaning and painting them.

Playground rhymes - skipping songs and clapping songs. And nursery rhymes.

I was at Barack Obama plaza yesterday for the first time and it's no Junction 14, I'll tell you that much for nothing.

Put them in a cell with the speakers on the bus people.

Did you see who else was in there? Any good ones?

My optician told me to increase the font size on my phone to stave off the varifocals for another year

Dammit I work near there but am otherwise engaged this evening

If you fancy a swift pint after work this evening, I'm DJing in the Big Romance on Parnell Street, from 5 30 till about 8

Might see you there

They're afraid of poor people and foreigners

I thought this was an olympic torch at first glance lol. That green is gorgeous.

Dizzy Gillespie maybe?

☹️

Dunno actually. I was in the back seat wrestling the vampire

Dream report: we weighed down a small vampire in a booster seat with sacks of potatoes.

For the 'gram.

No, the cinema was built post-1916. Then facade refurbed (probably a demolition job) by 1975 and the interior split.

Dublin Cinemas to be Revamped Change is on the way for two of Dublin's city centre cinemas.

RTE archives show the old facade gone by 1975. www.rte.ie/archives/201...

Looks like it was demolished and rebuilt a couple of times - rebuilt after 1916, then rebuilt again in the 1960s or 1970s.

Would you list that?

JK Rowling pledges to keep up fight against SNP trans policies Author vows to bankroll campaigners after Scottish government fails to pay group's legal fees in Supreme Court equality case

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Dream report: vampires lost the power of flight.

Had a great chat with Gerry Stembridge about About Adam, 25 today, which now exists as a perfect Celtic Tiger time capsule as well as the rare Irish film about sex that doesn't end in tears and tragedy. filmindublin.ie/2026/01/19/a...

Britonnes? Britonesses?
