@Egangoonsquad Absolute unalloyed joy to read #avisitfromthegoonsquad, then hear you speak so succinctly on your processes in creating a book that switches up its tones & forms without ever letting us lose belief in your chars, expressed with such wit, heart and candour. Roll on #thecandyhouse

Plastic waste isn't a problem the UK and IRL can dump on Turkey and Indonesia any longer. This Greenpeace spot puts Downing Street's lies in striking context.

[Christopher McGill @McGillTweet]

This is astonishing.

Just back from shooting the video for Stars Burn Out, the last track on my debut album No More Clones. Thanks to director David Lynch for putting up with my whims.

I see #intothewild is trending on Netflix.

Lock Irish people in with their families for a year and then deprive them of a parade AGAIN and they get jealous of a young man who ran away from all human contact to die of exposure on an Alaskan school bus.

Upstaged by the Covid pandemic but visible everywhere is an epidemic of littering and flytipping all over the country.

Here's a 2km stretch of road outside Dundalk on Sunday January 24th in the second year of the Plague, A.D.

The IBAL report was right.

BBC2 Nature Doc on billy goats amorously encountering the nanny goats during rutting season: 'He even puts his nose into a stream of the nanny goat's urine-'.

Mother, 79: 'Sounds like Trump.'

Not sure #Aldi fully thought through their aurally-enhanced #Halloween2020 decorations.

That short sharp 'Arrrgh' emitted on every entrance sounds more like a lockdown-howl than a spooky-fun All Hallows spectral sound effect.

I scream, you scream, we #Aldiscream.

Hi @eircare my father wants to start paying his home phone and broadband bill online but when I register him, he gets no e-mail to activate it.

His e-mail is working fine but your system isn't. Want to get it back up and running?

@ZoeComyns I bore witness to your sparrowhawkery!

@IrishTimesCultr T.C. Boyle's The Terranauts fills in the blanks of the dark, messy unravelling of Biosphere 2 with compelling fiction.

Read this fantastic NY'er article about Jim Hansen the scientist who started research on #GlobalWarming

Put down the refs to his urgent petitioning of Obama as 'well there's no point in lobbying Trump'. Only at the end did I read the date: archival issue.

We're doomed.

@tcboyle A life well lived so far sir. I'm only one novel and 17 stories up that mountain but you've marked out the trail. Drop City lives in my car in case of mood slippage and I need to read some Sess logic - proof that great literature is only enhanced when leavened with joyous humour.

@sbaigcasting Ah Jesus Shaheen, you haven't nailed Stephen to the floor AGAIN!

[Nick McGinley @nickjmc]

@tcboyle Made the wonderful mistake of matching circumstance and content too succinctly by reading Riven Rock during the Irish lockdown but now I'm in the fast embrace of Prok, Mac & Iris as related by John Milk. T.C., you make slow recovery (always a slippier concept) winningly raucous.
