We are adding more and more vehicles, of increasing size, into a finite physical space that was designed for fewer, and smaller, vehicles.
In Ireland, we went from approx.700,000 cars in 1985 (for a pop of 3.5m) to 2.5m cars in 2023 (pop. 5million).

A really fantastic podcast episode for these times. The first half is wildly entertaining, and the second is poignant, moving, and full of wisdom. Just what I needed to hear in this moment. Against Bigotry and Hatred.

This r*pist being hosted by a woman abuser does NOT speak for Ireland in any shape or form. Anyone watching from the US don't fall for this propaganda. Mick O'Keeffe is another bollix. I just feel so sorry for the kids in all of this. It's them who will suffer.

The most powerful man on earth is an elected rapist who invites his celebrity rapist friends over to be platformed in front of the whole world and people want you to believe “MeToo went too far.”

The scale of Mao's atrocities against his own people is perhaps underappreciated. This discussion is 90 minutes in length, and even then it's a broad overview. #China

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer.
Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.
We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is.
It will never reach you.

Colm Tóibín · Seagulls as Playmates: Where the Islanders Went
In 1954, the islanders left the Great Blasket. It has been empty since then. What does ‘empty’ mean? What happens...
‘How do historians deal with rapid change, with what is left when it starts to be called heritage? What do we do when even the victors didn’t bother writing history, let alone the dispossessed?’

Julian of Norwich lived through a most turbulent era, rife with unrest and the Black Death, and more.
But I take comfort in her refrain: "All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well."
It is a prayer, a hope, a longing.
