Pretty sure tùirseach is archaic / unused anyway so I'm stretching.

Just happy to have some cosy recognisable references tbh. I'm easily pleased.

Too generous to think that might be how tùirseach is pronounced (Scots Gaelic)?

[I have no idea]

Glad to see that the horse and greyhound racing got even more money this year.
Those greyhounds won’t abuse themselves you know!

Have you ever wanted to hear an Irish local government rep give a total car crash interview over charging 1000 euro for a room for a month and not allowing someone to use the kitchen? If so, this is for you!

The only age gap discourse on here today has been about the vast chasm between "Bluesky Elders" and the gauche arrivistes like ourselves.

black & white webcomic by smee_bucket (@smee_bucket on ig)

panel 1: lion king satire. mufasa, the powerful reigning lion ruler of the pride lands, hangs off a cliff, his foreclaws digging into the ledge. “scar help me I’m slipping,” he says

panel 2: scar, his lithe, villainous (and gay-coded) brother, leers at mufasa and says “self care is cutting toxic people out of your life”

3: mufasa’s eyes bulge in shock and anger. “WHAT”

4: exterior shot of cliff as scar pushes mufasa off the cliff. “YOU ARE SO VALID,” scar assures mufasa. “what the heck”, a falling mufasa mutters

5: cut to bottom of the canyon. mufasa lies dead on the ground. his cub son simba is at this side, tears streaming down his little face. scar stands over them and gloats. “good vibes only,” he pronounces. 

6: scar, having usurped his brother’s throne, now surveys his holdings atop pride rock. his hyena minions look up at him adoringly. “this sparks joy,” he purrs.
