Why has there not been a Rwanda style reconciliation programme in NI? We all need to grow the eff up, accept that both sides did wrong, DUP need to accept that the taigs are equal & ALL stop pretending songs = terrorism. Move bloody forward. Deal w poverty, cost of living etc

@JoeBrolly1993 Lololol

Barman in Tofino, vancouver island just told me an irish joke. "Irish names are my....(and wrote this bit) pet piamh.... " I hadn't heard this one before and it was so unexpected that I guffawed.

@Matt_1_official @JoeBrolly1993 A dialect of a language ie Scots. So is still valid. Same was that ulster irish is a dialect of irish and still..... valid.

@JoeBrolly1993 Ulster Scots isn’t a language it’s a dialect

How does this threaten anyone?

@NialFinegan @JoeBrolly1993 Scots *is* a language tho. English came from it. I think we should b applauding any minority language. Not least because it will wind the DUP up if we all support ulster Scots 2. They are politicsising it. We shouldn't 2. I follow a lovely Scottish lass who tweets in Scots.

@Dailigh @handsome_booger I think it's because Scots was a precursor 2 English. It's where English evolved from. There's plenty we wouldn't b able to understand but yes plenty we can. I don't think we should be bringing down Scots to raise irish up just bcoz dup are cladhaires.

@fontainesdublin me n my hubby live in london (although I'm irish) & will b in vancouver for a belated honeymoon for our 1st year anniversary, whilst you are playing there. We'd love 2 see you but Can prices r sky high. Any chance of guest list tix? Cheeky I know. #GottaAsk

Had the audacity to deviate from my usual black clothing and wear a grey knitted tunic and just got asked how the Crusades went.

I’m being sent messages telling me what I should+shouldn’t be speaking about. I started EveryDoctor because I was led by my conscience. I’m not staying silent now, or staying in some lane that other people have decided I belong in. I’m going to hold all politicians to account.

Regular reminder to Labour that no one “languishes” on sickness benefits. They endure debilitating symptoms daily whilst getting so little support from the state that they often can’t afford toilet roll or regular meals.

@datepsych Me n my hubby are very good at keeping up with the little things that make each other happy. I love that he wants to show me I matter and vice versa. We have a great relationship. I'm very blessed.

@dli_odoir I love this. Shows how they were never going to get anywhere with such inane tactics

Apocryphal story from the broadcasting ban era: after doing an interview for a news programme one night, Gerry Adams asked who would be dubbing his voice for the broadcast and was told it was to be Mr Rea. “Dead-on” says Gerry, “he does me better than I do myself.”

Jaysus #RebelMoon is all sorts of ballix. Terrible script & copies everything. Hunmans Belfast accent was awful but better than Brad Pitts I suppose. Not THE worst I've ever heard Balisarius I heard as authentic NI & yea he is actually from NI. Don't watch this atrocity of a film

The Gregg Wallace thing needs to make people look at how women's work is invisibilised by society. GW puts his success down to daily gym sessions, manifesting, journalling, reading etc - meanwhile, this is only possible because his wife and mother-in-law do absolutely EVERYTHING

Big congratulations to Flowdan who makes history as the first ever UK MC to win a GRAMMY award. A special achievement and well deserved 🎤🏆 @BigFlowdan @RecordingAcad #GRAMMYs

Went to fabric last night for a day rave for my 50th. Fifty at fabric! Had a wonderful afternoon/evening with 35 of my mates dancing like loons to Ed Real, 90s hard house legend who is a mate of my mates. Looking forward to the next decade woop

“Have you seen the old lady I usually speak to on this bus?” “Yes, she got off two stops ago to have a heart transplant at the pharmacist on the high street.”

The housing shortage isn't caused by immigrants. It's caused by not building enough houses.

Is there any such thing as a properly edited version of the wheel of time? It's fab but no need for a lot of it. Needs some serious editing. I'm only 3/4 of the way through book 2 and there are shed loads more books like no need. #wheeloftime
