I think my resolution for 2024 will be to depart this place properly - I now officially have too many tabs to check. You can contact me at deirdre.oshaughnessy /at/ examiner.ie for work purposes, I'm on LinkedIn, Threads, and Facebook.


No snow south of Buttevant #phew #sneachta

Raining heavily but no snow here yet.



Very heavy #sneachta in Charleville, travelling south on the N20 and still snowing as we approach Buttevant. Anyone in Mallow able to tell me what it’s like there?!


Haven’t been here in a while folks and not intending to be again. You’ll find me on Bluesky or LinkedIn 👋

Just went to see #SmallThingsLikeThese. I just experienced something I never have at the cinema. At the end there was a palpaple emotion in the silence that hung in the air, no one spoke or moved for about a minute & then everyone spontaneously started clapping. Was so moving.

You know in ‘Horny’ by Mousse T, when she sings “I sent a message through the Internet but it rejected”? Do you think she’d been blocked by the recipient, or had she just typed their email incorrectly? Interviewer: We meant do you have any questions about the job.


If you haven’t watched Rivals I *highly* recommend it for a much needed dose of nonsense. Aidan turner and Victoria Smurfit are absolutely hilarious in it

I am deeply disappointed that various western governments and diplomats appear to have been misled by spurious, recycled allegations against me, just as I prepare to present my latest report to the #UNGA next week. I am profoundly committed to human rights for all people - how…

The media have conditioned us to think famous people like Enya and Kate Bush are eccentric weirdos for shying away from public life and not courting celebrity, but the older I get the more I think they're the normal ones. Who can really blame them for shunning the circus?

A woman only voting for the first time at 81 is not a happy story. It’s a story about voter suppression and an American who wasn’t allowed to vote for 63 years because of voter suppression within her home. This is why we need to make sure all women around us feel safe voting.

Sitting and standing all day are both bad, which leaves lying down as the best option, which is what I’ve been saying for years.
