Page from an Italian colonial census record for a butcher from Venice living in Asmara
Asked by the 1905 census carried out in Eritrea what language he habitually spoke, this hero said 'Veneto dialect'
(but confessed he spoke a little Italian as a secondary language 'un pocco di italiano'
Also enjoying his religious faith: 'God without priests '
My university paid a marketing company a lot of money to tell us that, give the global recognition of #Dublin as a brand, we should call ourselves ‘UCD Dublin’. So we are now University College Dublin Dublin. 🫠 #UCD #TrueStory

It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.

His mind drifts mid-flight. He remembers, randomly, something he hadn’t thought of in decades. His 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Trumbull, is preparing everyone to make granola for a class project, and Trumbull calls one of the nuts they’re going to include N***** nuts, dropping the N-word like it was no big deal. The skateboarder loses focuses at that moment and collapses to the concrete in a pile. What the fuck, he says.
