@keira_con@michaelmcguirek@IrishTimes Defo worth checking if they're the same person or not.
Last autumn, I was shocked to find out the that I was a gangster that had been gunned down in Dublin. Fortunately, after a little fact checking, I was relieved to find that reports of my demise had been greatly exaggerated.
@medievalgill By their stance this farting looks performative rather than the comedy of surprise unintentional tones.
Did these farters predate the uilleann pipes? If so, do we know what their repertoire may have consisted of? And how might they have influenced Irish music today?
What's that got to do with the price of fish?
Well, a fair bit actually.
Irish spies are not called spooks but fish people. You see it all goes back to Fintan the Salmon of knowledge... 1/2

In today's research I have been reading about a very famous incident in Ireland in 1414 when an Irish poet allegedly killed the English king's representative in Ireland.
Same old, same old you might think...
But, it's the way he killed him that is notable👇

@Anthony_Etherin Saltare — originally "jumping" from Joy for being gifted salt.
Salute — a greeting roughly translating to "Salt be with you" or more literally "May all your paths be salted"
@RealTimBooth Love it!
My screenplays and audio dramas always have a bit of James in 'em.
"Those Who Find Themselves Ridiculous" aka Jane the Musical is taking longer than planned to get off the ground. But the best work often takes time.

@GaelicRevival The Bright Prince of War.
Does tánaiste mean heir or second in line? I believe heirs were selected on merit rather than first born birthright, and Dónal was enraged when his brother or cousin(?) was made chief.
@Canticle977@coady_colinson@GaelicRevival Thanks, my shameful lack of knowledge in this area is a result of being raised in exile where I "learned" history at a British comprehensive school. The education I received there was neither comprehensive nor an education.
@coady_colinson@Canticle977@GaelicRevival If that green flag in the background is that of the St Patrick's Battalion, they had change of heart and fought on the Mexican side.
@fallon_donal Very well said by someone with an excellent choice of first name, Dónal.
But can we please stop referring to or sharing her rage-bait article. She likes it when we do and her paymasters/editors like it even more than she does.
@AlanTarica@RMcGreevy1301@gilescoren Míle buíochas! (Thanks a million!)
I prefer your term lived knowledge to the British tendency to use "lived experience".
@gilescoren Much safer if these hacks stick to discussing documentaries like Adolescence. Fiction is a much more subjective thing to unpack, particularly if that work of fiction is further based on an earlier work of fiction.
@RMcGreevy1301@gilescoren There's also some potential here to settle the Oxfordian debate.
Of the two potential authors of the Shakespearean canon, which of them had a son whose first name and biography is most closely related to the "fictional" Hamlet?
@RealTimBooth Thanks @RealTimBooth
I've been likened to his mate Hugh Laurie, but I don't believe a word of it. The words in my dictionary are not to be trusted either. https://t.co/l4XFJUFcnO
Don't overthink it, young Ógues.
Coffee grinder is a noun phrase, so you were right the first time, mo chomrádaí. Ground coffee on the other hand would be caife meilineach. And I take my coffee dubh.
