It's 2026 and this is still the world's best stock photo.

Seeing as it’s 42 years old this week, let’s give it up for ‘Tech Noir’ in The Terminator

Picture editors, please stop using absolutely insane stock photos on AI stories, thnx

I have never seen a dracula with a ladywizard on O’Connell Street, this is a fiction

“Polymarket, a major crypto-betting platform which is not currently regulated to operate in Ireland, also posted about it on Tuesday.” Why on earth is Polymarket posting about a DRCC video on consent? 🫠

If anyone's kid has lost their Columbia Statistical Research Group' model of survivorship bias, I found it on the street in Walthamstow yesterday.

At last! A new series of Annie West Fine Art mini prints to call your own. Delightfully bijou Giclée prints to fit in the tiniest of quiet corners, a perfect present for the one true love of your life. #DrawnByAHuman #TheLateNightWritersClub www.anniewest.com/giants-of-li...

Worth remembering that Ireland had a referendum where we put the rights of the child into the constitution despite those who campaigned against such rights. Also this attack on DRCC sends such a poor public message to teenagers (the actual video shows one teenager who likes hugs & one who doesn't)

…Or just leave 2 seconds later. It’s not that hard people

Was inspired to make this in simple planes and it's worryingly competent...

For a millisecond I thought they were building a bridge between Northern Ireland and Belgium (which I still think they should do)

Maybe people shouldn't be able to collect social welfare at the GPO, Arnotts lobbies. The company behind the Henry Street department store raised the idea with the man in charge of the regeneration of the city centre, returns show.
