Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

I've no strong opinion about it, but if they decided to rename my suggestion would be Tomi Reichental who survived Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, moved to Ireland in 1959, and dedicated his later years to educating young Irish people about the Holocaust

Always my favourite Christmas thead. Essential Christmas reading if you haven't come across it before!
The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

In one of her first public actions as the newly elected Uachtarán na hÉireann (president of Ireland) Catherine Connolly has written a public letter of solidarity on Trans Remembrance Day. It is a very promising start.

I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke.

i missed this thread about hippos and all the science as to *why* they are terrifying murder cows the first time it was around
Additionally, hippos - despite being massive - have almost no fat on them. All of that impressive bulk is muscle.
2% body fat. Compare that to Elephants, which are around 8-10%, or rhinos, which are 10-20%.
The average human is around 20-40%, for reference.
They're *all* muscle.

Following the tragic deaths over the weekend, I wanted to understand were there areas in Ireland that were more dangerous than others for road deaths and injuries.
I've produced the map below, which I hope will draw attention to where road safety efforts may help save lives.

There once was a man who said "scone"
So that it rhymed with "gone",
But his wife said "scone"
To rhyme with "tone";
That marriage is over, it's done.

Bo Nix is better than John Elway. At least, when you compare their stats through their first 26 starts, he is.
