My latest in the @IrishTimes about the pain of living with endometriosis. Please share if you can, you never know who might see their own symptoms in it and get an earlier diagnosis. Many thanks to all the women who contributed to the piece.

Behind the Story | Writer @lisatk talks to @KatieGHannon and @franmcnulty on living with the 'silent, quiet crisis' of endometriosis: "It was like early-stage labour pains and being stabbed with a hot poker"

Yesterday, I spoke with @cooper_m on @TheLastWord on @TodayFM about my piece in the Irish Times about living with endometriosis. Please share, you never know who in your life is suffering silently. Thank you.

@HelenaMaeveW Thanks so much, Helena.

I wrote this piece to help other women who might recognise themselves in my journey. Please share so we can help stop the needless suffering and delayed diagnosis. Thank you. LTK

Our music, our writers, our art, our theatre, our festivals, these are what make Ireland such a popular place to visit. And when tourists come, they spend money. Lots of it. So why are the folks that make that culture living on the breadline?

This is humanity at its absolute worst. Designing and manufacturing weapons to murder, maim and destroy children.

[Donal O'Kelly @DonalOKelly]

Some people in the dual-use industry (Ireland I'm looking at you) have made their fortune out of researching & developing a way of driving tiny tungsten cubes into Palestinians at such force that they traverse the body. Exhausted doctors in Gaza deal with the impact on children.

It takes the pure joy of a @bbboatclub post to get me back on Musk's toilet.

Willie O Dea doing a bit of populism by using a Dog Petting Gloryhole, which is a tradition here in Limerick. But you’d never seen him use one outside of elections

@DavidsonJenn @cathmartingreen @artscouncil_ie @WritersGuildIRL @SIPTU @Campaign4Arts Have you sat down with her yet @DavidsonJenn ? Because I'd like to be in the room when you do.

Raises head and peeks out 👀

I'd like to use this weird moment to draw attention to how badly artists and arts workers are treated and paid in Ireland. Buckle up for a short🧵

[Lisa Tierney-Keogh @lisatk]

@Irish_Freedom_ @CauveryMadhavan @rhasidatadeleke Yes, you thundering pillock.

[Lisa Tierney-Keogh @lisatk]

@AodhanORiordain is an incredibly dedicated public servant who cares deeply about Dublin. We need a leader in Europe who will represent who we really are as a people -compassionate and welcoming- not the dark internet, Black Mirror version we've seen.

The Irish Local Election has peaked.

You won’t find a better slogan than this.

Now go read about Project 2025 and learn about his plan to turn the US into a dictatorship.

[Lisa Tierney-Keogh @lisatk]

A masterclass in passing the book and not caring a whit about Irish music and culture. Not good enough @NormaFoleyTD1 and @IENewparkSchool The principal sits on the board of @NewparkMusic and his school. The optics are super shady. Hat tip @RBoydBarrett

In Dublin 8, residents send canvassers messages with political doormats. Artist Augustine O’Donoghue and author Conor McCabe made 50 of the mats and gave them away on Meath Street recently. From there, they spread out. https://t.co/TPWOOWlMi0

Fantastic to see the level of talent on display at the Basketball Ireland U15 Girls Inter-Provincial tournament at the UL Arena 🏟️

This is the reason for the housing crisis. Over here. Investment funds and those in power who enable them, love it when people blame immigrants. Because it distracts from this here and moves all conversation and our cognitive resources towards something else
