Saw “The Two Popes” in Munich this afternoon. Historicity aside (it’s largely a fictional imagining), this is a stunningly produced film & incredibly acted by the leads. Heartwarming, human, and definitely worth a look. pic.twitter.com/5tLByIPfy0

University College Cork offers a full-ride plus living expenses for a Choctaw student for an MA, in recognition for the financial support the Choctaw Nation sent the people of Ireland during the Famine in 1847.

To (very loosely) paraphrase Emma Thompson in Love Actually, “there was a seahorse at the birth of the baby Jesus?”
And, sure, why not? After all, both can claim to have had *not quite* your regular birth.

We now have about a dozen insects found within books from the sixteenth century onwards. We are wondering if their existence can tell us anything about the readers who killed them: time of year of reading; location of reading. Sounds like a research project..... pic.twitter.com/g9V67SNIJg

We don’t use “some” in that way, but, as you’ll know, there’s a significant Irish influence in Newfoundland where you can still find accents very close to our own over here.

Those last two words encapsulate perfectly the gulf between English & Hiberno-English. You could traverse the country & not hear “proper” used in this way. But you’ll find “right”; fair”; “wicked”; “terrible”; “wile”,&c. E.g. anybody can be an eejit, but if you’re a right eejit..
