New map work! Greenways of Ireland. Something I've been wanting to do for a long time. Surprising just how many there are, and even more in planning #GreenwaysIreland #ActiveTravel #Cycling See more about the map on @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social here: www.irishcyclingcampaign.ie/greenways/

“Other countries are demonstrating what can be achieved through effective enforcement, safer road design, appropriate speed limits and technology. The problem is not a lack of evidence. It is a lack of political will to turn that evidence into action.” www.independent.ie/county/sligo...

The Kilberry Pub & Kitchen is now my new favourite local spot. Who needs AI when you can use some good oul' creativity (and, you know, real photos of food) 👏👏👏 Give them some support: www.instagram.com/p/De60rXsiHP...

“We’ve had a great summer”, said Micheál Martin. The Taoiseach’s apparent insouciance in the face of our rapidly shifting climate is indicative of his government as a whole”. My piece in today’s @irishexaminer.bsky.social on #climate breakdown. www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

Heads need to roll for this. Cabinet ministers can't just lie to the public like this. #Spéirgorm

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Throughout the entire Fare Hike saga, Government maintained this was a decision by the NTA We now know it was the Dept of Public Expenditure & it was decided 12 months ago Government lied to to the public, the did it repeatedly, & they did it intentionally

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Lula wins fourth term as Brazil president after historic upset over far-right Flávio Bolsonaro

For two years, student-led protests have raged against Aleksandar Vučić and his corrupt government in Serbia. Today, in parliamentary elections, he was toppled. One of the most sustained protest movements in recent European history has succeeded. Resistance works.

I assume everyone who wrote about the hospital bike shed in their columns and talked about the hospital bike shed on their radio shows and tweeted about the hospital bike shed on their Nazi owned micro blogging app are very excited to discuss this

That headline is doing some serious stretching. All changes are within the margin of error - and it’s hard to see how a 3 point rise for Independent Ireland and a 1 point rise for Aontu indicates ‘voters turning to right wing populists’. Mad stuff.

No bike today but lovely afternoon for a walk #BVLGreenway

Serious Doom / Half Life vibes off the young lads costume.

I suppose we should be thankful that the Gardai are at least arsed to do something about Ireland's epidemic of speeding drivers on a couple of days each year.

RTE news carried an analysis of road deaths in 2026. The report repeatedly referred to “accidents”, including one where the driver deliberately drove on the wrong side of M9 motorway - clearly NOT an accident. The national broadcaster effectively infers that no-one is responsible for road deaths.

This is bonkers to the level you'd seriously worry about his suitability to hold a senior policing role

Out of touch, car-centric victim-blaming nonsense. It's attitudes like this at the top that's the cause of rising road deaths and serious injuries.

Prof. Shane O'Hanlon (Geriatrics, UCD/Mater) talking sense about joined up safe cycling infrastructure & keeping older folks mobile #ActiveTravel. A must listen for local Councillors who often oppose such measures in their bailiwicks. #Cycling4All love30.ie www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

Sean Canney is a good match for dealing with the RSA. Both are way out of their depth and don't have a clue about effective and proven road safety measures. And yet more high-vis victim blaming BS from both Canney and AGS.

Maybe the BBC should get someone who actually knows what he is talking about then.

EU: prioritise call for high-speed rail network Irish Gov: #NavanRail line, planned back as far as 2011, then cancelled, now expected in a vague 2031 to 2036 timeframe (and not funded) 🫠

The world has lost the opportunity to prevent global warming significantly exceeding the critical threshold of 1.5C above pre-industrial levels, according to a major new UN report.

“The Government decided to prioritise funding for the Metro, Cork Rail, Dart West upgrade, Finglas Luas, the Galway Ring Road, A5 upgrade and M20 Motorway. The #NavanRail line and the other Dart and Limerick rail upgrades will have to wait another decade or two, at the very least.”

Just when you think the Road [Car] Safety Authority couldn’t possibly be any worse… how are they still allowed to operate like this?

JustEat has apologised and begun removing inaccurate AI-generated pictures from Irish takeaway menus, but plans to keep developing the technology. AI-generated mistakes spotted so far include a batter burger with deep-fried buns and a picture of sushi used for scampi. jrnl.ie/7198965

lol. The #GAA are basically saying "Stop robbing all our best young players and we'll give you a game."

Majority of councillors say they want Clontarf Village project to go ahead without a trial Bringing a more village feel back to Clontarf's main commercial and community centre, which was The Sheds fishing village long before Dublin City grew around it, is part of a traffic and public realm plan…

This was very popular. It’s amazing how many people have decent old bikes which can be easily be made roadworthy. Of course there were a few way beyond repair, but most just needed a new tubes or gear cable or chain. If only we made it safer for all to cycle everyday.

Good to see this being covered. My local coffee shop put up this huge AI menu poster on the wall, and all of the food items on it look fake as fuck and nothing like what you actually get, and tbh it puts me off going back there.

I’ve a piece in @irishexaminer.bsky.social this morning about Ireland’s economic identity crisis www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

obviously many more important takeaways from the French approach to protest, but much respect to the absolute varsity level Whimsy of throwing a whole ass piano at the cops

Apocalypse now outside my bedroom window. This is done for sheep.

X and Meta interfering in Brazilian elections. Starlink siding with Russia. That's just this week. It's not a word I use lightly, but we are at war with the tech oligarchs whether we like it or not.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: No Kings organizer Ezra Levin SOUNDS ALARM after Meta suspended the movement’s Instagram during nationwide protests. LEVIN: “We might be seeing something similar from Meta in our country right now.” “We're not gonna stop organizing against this regime.”

I see we're having a debate about whether it's okay to go back to "X," the site owned by a trillionaire fascist who is currently bankrolling the GOP's midterm, throttled Ukraine's war effort, and still winkingly allows vast amounts of CSAM on his service Answer: No, what the fuck is wrong with you

Numerous studies have found road safety messaging that focuses on training children will not make a difference to injury or fatality rates without interventions to reduce biggest hazards: driver behaviour, speeding, road design and the weight and size of vehicles. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2026...
