Ag comhdháil na Scoláirí Óga anseo in @fsg-dcu.bsky.social An tOllamh Comhlach Gearóidín Uí Laighléis ag caint anois ar bhealaí éifeachtacha chun mic léinn a mhealladh chun a bheith rannpháirteach i saol acadúil agus liteartha na Gaeilge agus chun cultúr acadúil a fheabhsú #nascoláiríóga #gaeilge

Bíonn daoine in amhras go minic mar gheall ar céard is pribhléid ann ach léirítear domsa é nuair is féidir le daoine neamhaird a thabhairt ar thuairimí áirithe nuair atá a fhios acu nach iad a bheas thíos leis. Seo duine de na daoine atá i gceannas ar na hagóidí seo.

Nuair a chroch mé é, dúirt duine liom a thacaíonn leis na hagóidí, agus ní dóigh liom gur homafóbach é/í, nach dtaitníonn Bród le gach duine agus muise, nach bhfuil sé de cheart aige a rogha tuairime a bheith aige. Dall ar an bhfuath agus an urchóid atá go smior ann mar ní bagairt dóibh é.

I see we've got to the blocking "oil depots during a fuel crisis" stage of this weaponised stupidity. Forgive me for thinking this is an act of sabotage manipulated by foreign actors.

Two of the journalists assassinated in South Lebanon this morning by Israel were Lebanese correspondents Ali Shoeib and Fatima Ftouni. They become the 252nd and 253rd journalists killed by Israel in the last two years. Unprecedented. (📸 Cradle Media)

tuairisc.ie/tugann-an-gh... “The Irish language has been diminished. It is something symbolic. And if you look at the history of women, it’s the exact same” - An tUachtarán Connolly. Cén ról atá ag an nGaeilge sa chur in éadan an fhoréigin inscne? Alt liom féin 7 @seanmacristeaird.bsky.social.

tuairisc.ieTugann an Ghaeilge súil eile dúinn ar cheisteanna a bhaineann leis an bhforéigean inscneMá tá straitéis chuimsitheach agus iltaobhach de dhíth chun dul i ngleic leis an bhforéigean inscne, bíodh an Ghaeilge mar chuid den phlé sin

Meastú an mbeidh an dara hanáil ag Gavin. Bhí an t-iriseoir an-lách air ar na meáin ansin agus beidh a ainm ar an mballóid is cuma céard a tharlaíonn. Nach ndearna David Norris é roimhe? Ní chuirfinn as an áireamh é.

Níl daoine róshásta leis an gclár BBC ar Liam an Choncais, is cosúil. Ach ceist agam daoibh, cén fáth nach ndeachamarna i mbun léiriúcháin den chineál sin ar phearsaí staire Gaelacha (fágaimis an Fighting Prince of Donegal as an áireamh). An ea nach féidir pobal an lae inniu ceangal a dhéanamh leo?

A great graphic on potential travel times across the Island of Ireland if the All Ireland Strategic rail review recommendations were implemented. #spéirghorm #rail

A popular Irish custom, carried out to this day, is leaving a Child of Prague statue outdoors under a bush the night before a wedding to ensure good weather If the statue's head breaks off it heightens the odds of sunny weather! 💫🔆 #FolkyFriday #weatherlore #folklore #speirgorm #tradition #Ireland

So Iran has the advantage now that its nuclear weapon manufacturing is now part of the Emperor's new clothes (but in reverse). You cannot claim that Iran has nuclear weapons now for fear of showing disloyalty to Trump. Anything that contradicts that assessment will be ignored.

☝️🇺🇸🇮🇷 US Defense Secretary Hegsett: “From everything we’ve seen — and I’ve seen it all — our bombing campaign wiped out Iran’s ability to build a nuclear weapon. Their impact now lies buried under mountains of debris. Anyone downplaying this is just trying to undermine the president.”

Ní fear ardéirime go dtí é!

NEW: Trump tells NBC News that the ceasefire between Israel and Iran will last “forever”. He says: “I don't believe they will ever be shooting at each other again."

By coincidence I was passing Tuam today as the hoarding went up around the Mother & Baby Home site. A discreet and respectful veil. It’s 11 years since I took this photo of Catherine Corless at her kitchen table. I rang her today just to say hi. 🧵

“Our ethnic minority community plays an integral role in the life of our club, enriching us with their passion, culture, and commitment. We are stronger and better because of them.” A Portadown GAA club sends a message of solidarity to its ethnic minority members.

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

Your occasional gentle reminder that this place is not the other place. 💪🙂 Giving a post a Like on Bluesky won't boost its visibility (ie there's no Twitter-style algorithm here). If your intention is to draw wider attention to a post, you need to repost (and/or tag).

Buíochas le dia nach bhfuilimid ag dul go Meiriceá a thuilleadh ar mhí na meala.

Le Monde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to US after a search of his phone & computer revealed messages critical of Trump's science cuts, "which [says CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism". Computer confiscated

Conor McGregor claiming our Irishness is in danger cause we're too generous, too charitable, too hospitable. Clearly doesn't recognise that these are the hallmarks of Irish culture and society since year dot.
