On the eve of Bloomsday, I think we should take a moment to acknowledge that Ulysses is (like Finnegan’s Wake, but unlike Dubliners) a terrible book.
And if you think it’s shite, it’s not that you are uneducated, don’t understand it and lack intellectual subtlety.
It’s just shite.
I had read your books and when I came over to Bluesky you were the only poster I knew

The Tactics Elon Musk Uses to Manage His 'Legion' of Babies-and Their Mothers The world's richest man juggles more than a dozen children and 'harem drama' along with running his companies and advising Trump. He recently took a paternity test in a battle with one woman over money and privacy.
Musk refers to his offspring as a "legion," a reference to the ancient military units that could contain thousands of soldiers and were key to extending the reach of the Roman Empire. During St. Clair's pregnancy, Musk suggested that they bring in other women to have even more of their children faster. "To reach legion-level before the apocalypse," he said to St. Clair in a text message viewed by The Wall Street Journal, "we will need to use surrogates."
During the height of her interactions with the billionaire owner, Fong earned $21,000 on the platform in a two-week period in November, according to a screenshot she posted. That was about when Musk sent her a direct message asking if she was interested in having his child, according to people familiar with the matter. The two had never met in person. Fong didn't move forward with Musk because she pictured having children in a more traditional nuclear family, but confided to a few friends about the approach -including St. Clair, whom she knew as another conservative social-media figure-and how she worried that turning him down could hurt her earnings.
Once Musk learned that Fong disclosed the request to others, he chided her for not using discretion, according to the people, and unfollowed her. That contributed to a fall in her engagement, and her earnings declined.

It’s very early doors, but so far, Bluesky seems to be distilling social media back to its purest form: actually interacting and discussing shared interests!
