Come for the shelfie, stay for my tiny Germanic mouse voice at the end.
Was asked for a shelfie over on the @emeraldcollective.bsky.social Discord earlier, and here it is. Pretty much all (I think?) of my physical RPG stuff.

Shovel-ready Luas and Dart projects delayed “to free up funding for more roads”
The Government is delaying shovel-ready public transport projects such as Dart+ South West and Luas Finglas in order "to free up funding for more roads", the Green Party's transport spokesperson, Cllr Feljin Jose, has claimed. He said that this is a "disaster" that large new areas of housing in Dublin -- including a development of nearly 900 homes approved in Adamstown today and the major housing project at Poolbeg -- were being left without the promised transport links, forcing more people into cars on the capital's congested roads.

New Iona Zajac. Lots of good contemporary folk goodness on this one. Anton is tough but beautiful, Summer is a standout, and Murder Mystery is a bop.

We have moved past a need for Ranelagh. It should be dissolved and its treasures dispersed among neighbouring kingdoms.
Yes, I am annoyed about them delaying the Metro.
