hi @jimbohusky.bsky.social, can i be on your list 🥺

Also just to note, I'm under the assumption that "Sitric, King of the Danes" here is in reference to *Sitric Cáech*. if it's in reference to Sitric Silkbeard Olafsson, then I'm certainly mistaken.

It would only make sense to me if it was Sitric Silkbeard Olaffsson who sacked the church, since he was King of Dublin at the time, and would've been active and only 32 at the time of the sack, however, it's not pointed to be him in anything I've found. Maybe it's just a mass error or something?

Hi, is there anyone out there more knowledgeable on Irish history in the Downpatrick that could answer this; I'm reading up on Inch Abbey right now, and according to The St. Patrick Centre, it was raided by Sitric (King of the Danes) in 1002... who... died in 927?

ok who wants to take pictures of me at land's end

noting this down...

holy essay

but we'll see, it's best to fear reform rather than ignore them, but going in 4 years prior to the election with a mindset that they WILL win is setting up a reform victory in itself, and is a very unuseful way to see the party (especially now that 16-17 year olds can vote, who lean left)

like it looks very good for reform right now, but there's no way to say it'll look good in 2029. i want to say it could be a repeat of 2024 wherein reform's chances are overhyped, especially with how horribly they've done at admin with their councillors

truthfully i felt this way in a while, and i began to freak out about it (i have burmese citizenship lol i can't afford to go back) but as time goes on i've realised that the general election is four years away, and farage is likely to fuck up his party somehow

recent sketchbook from last week btw, sorry i have not been posting this stuff

not british carabao tho. they made it too white

yeah like how you are simply biologically dumber than me #owned

this but for cardinal charles because he is slightly too chudded (like he's still a nice guy and all but he is a bit conservative so there was 0 chance even if he was papabile)

lmao

i love it when you get forced to read an academic paper, and then you actually kind of enjoy it and look up the author and find they have a bluesky

a risky job

my beloved auntie <3

which tbf is to be expected, like this place is nowhere near as big, but at the same time i kind of like to feel like i am in an active space online instead of something more limited, unfortunately though that more active space right now continues to be twitter

i want to be active here but at the same time it has issues, like it still feels a bit empty and whenever i am making a post bluesky assumes i am writing in burmese for some reason

i dunno i do not like twitter very much but bluesky feels so lonely to me
