Dublin 15, Ireland. Nobody wants to read what I write once they’ve read what I’ve written. I assuredly will write it. I also post occasionally about coding, bird-feeding, photos of things, cycling, and drawing (once in a while). He/him

I never did this here:
I guess that I should introduce myself, tell everyone a bit about me. I live in Dublin 15 in Ireland out on the Western edge of Europe, in more privilege than I like to admit. [1/10]

Photo, landscape, exterior: A selfie, bald, bearded man wearing a green hoodie, parkland behind obscured by bokeh. He appears to be very happy, perhaps manically so, maybe his is thinking about all of the happy things.

So you see, this was all good, actually

Not that this is what’s happening, no way at all

And because we have rules to protect us economically, they are incentivised to go ahead and risk flying those things even if that guy isn’t around, possibly especially if he isn’t around because he might say ‘Yeah, no, there’s no way that thing is safe until I’m done with it’

I’ve experienced a variation of this with Loganair, minus the bus, but with added ‘Wait, do their planes actually work? Do they even service these things?’

O’Brien: There must be rehabilitation and restorative justice
Us: What? Well, yes we agree, absolutely, wow

O’Brien: Great. So I have these religious orders here and a bunch of priests, who everyone said should-
Us: Oh no

My column today in a paper but also behind a paywall: If Maria Steen is a failed candidate, why do people want journalists to stop writing about her?

I am on a bus (This was originally a Greg Stekelman line)

Work trip to Brussels this past week. 1/2

Photo, landscape, interior: Looking down a long office corridor, white walls, subdued lighting.

Photo, landscape, exterior: Selfie of a genial, bald, somewhat unshaven potato-headed man in a blue-grey shirt with a blue lanyard on a city street. There are large office buildings in the distance behind.

Photo, landscape, exterior: Two diverging city streets divided by a wedge-shaped building in the older Dutch/French style.

Photo, landscape, exterior: Looking down a main street, a road emerging from underground with heavy traffic between tall office buildings in various architectural styles. Early evening.

I don’t see the shield, that’s kind of his thing, even if he doesn’t have the suit. So he’s probably going around with an awkwardly shaped gym bag, getting in the way on the bus and what have you

More than €1.1 million in taxpayer funds was paid last year to ministers, TDs, and Senators for social media, PR, and secretarial support.

Details of many of the payments are now kept secret with the Oireachtas saying they're personal information:

He could become the OverPope, even more powerful. That’s the equivalent of three popes combined

Why would you hate the trillionaires, what did they ever do to you

A Ponzi scheme of sorts. To make what they need to fund this nonsense will require more money than exists, multiples of it.

This week I’m in the office of the organisation that I work for, and the corridors look a lot like the ones in the Severance office.

This is could cause Fianna Fáil to collapse in on itself as some sort of singularity. A new tiny, superthick political party will be formed, composed of SportsDadium

Ugh.

I have to admit, I can’t read odds, but what I take from this is that Jim Gavin is still in with a fighting chance

We cancelled Netflix a little while ago. I’m enjoying getting emails from them explaining how Netflix works and what it’s for, specifically written for someone who was doing these things very recently.
