I need to find another career to get me through the next decade.

Any suggestions?

The Basic Income for the Arts Scheme is €325 a week, similar to what they gave out during the pandemic. This is how much they've deemed one needs in order to live in Ireland. So why is disability benefit only €244? Why are disabled and sick people expected to live so far below the poverty line?

They do own The George.

Oh, I know. I’ve been to the Tokyo ones.
But, living in Dublin, we take any Uniqlo fix whenever we can.

Why do you even have a “debate” on policy issues when the constitution doesn’t provide the President the ability to do anything about government policy?

Our three days in Barcelona last week included two visits to Uniqlo.

Can anyone explain to me why you have a debate of presidential candidates on substantive policy issues, when the Irish constitution gives the President no role to play in determining government policy?

It's odd that Republicans can do the mental gymnastics to link Tylenol to autism, but not link gun deaths to guns.

Her PhD thesis basically established the Harvard astro department — at a time when Harvard didn't officially allow woman students.

I wrote this little profile to mark the 100th anniversary of her thesis:

I fear I’ve just radicalised a Disney+ customer service agent.

Here's a thing that's probably right up your Straße, you big mad oddball.x

I love bears almost as much as I love elephants. Nature's perfect fatties.

People really don't understand how warped the truly rich are.

They exist in a multi-layered-bubble of sycophants, each paid half a million dollars a year to keep the consequences of that super-rich person's failures and the word "no" from their ears.

They are flying blind with no real feedback.

The Irish Times worries that a bully who spews hatred and incites physical violence is potentially crimalised, while hundreds of people in the same country have been arrested for peacefully voicing support for a peaceful protest organisation that opposes genocide.

I am a hypermasculine and extremely powerful alpha male. As such my greatest fears are seed oils, rainbows, people who don't look like me being on TV, and preventative medicine. I cannot explain any of these fears and consider that to be your fault.

At least this story quotes his violence-inciting tweet. Plenty of others don’t, and paint the story as persecution for reasonable views.

Even if you remind yourself to try to view this through a lens untouched by 21st century queer culture, politics and aesthetics, it still feels as queer as fuck.

This is/was? a thing in NSW.

A microbee!

Lucas is sleepwalking into his own oblivion, ridiculing the people trying to warn him.

No babes. I don’t engage with bad faith attention seeking turds like you. Goodbye.

Please consider if policing people on BlueSky is the best way to use your life.

My mileage definitely varies.

Great effort at completely misrepresenting me. Well done.
