I’m reminded of watching two old ladies ask a teenage goth for directions and she politely told them and when she was out of earshot one lady said “You know where you are with a goth”
Things are Terrible, but this isn't.

Newgrange is an amazing feat of engineering but there is also something deeply human and Irish about how they built it for a time of year when the weather is basically never good enough for it to properly work. Anyway the livestream is magic

Helped a woman in the shop find a Christmas card for her godson. She said thanks and I tried to say “you’re welcome” and “no problem” at the same time but instead said… You Problem

123 vs 24. Fox hunting remains legal.
I’ll just note that this in no way reflects public opinion, which is massively against this barbaric relic gifted to us by our colonisers, nor I suspect the opinion of the TDs if they were being honest with themselves.

God bless the HSE for covering my unlicensed meds that were going to be €70 a month. Now I just have to hope they help and be sober over Christmas 😭

"The British empire invented and commited crimes so heinous people had to invent new words for them" is a surprisingly large category 👀
The word dystopia was first coined by John Stuart Mill to describe the British governments rule in Ireland

"they ought rather to be called dys-topians... what they appear to favour is too bad to be practicable."

You are ABSOLUTELY NOT going to regret listening to this bird:
A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.

Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.

A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).
