"Dublin is more dangerous now" Shut up you big baby. I grew up in Dolphins Barn in the late 80s/early 90s and it was absolutely wild. Our house was burgled seven times before I was twelve. My dad owned a shop and kept a shotgun out the back it was so dangerous. Lmao.

Occupying and clearing Gaza in the face of desperate and certain opposition would be the biggest urban warfare challenge since, what, Stalingrad?

There’s a Turkish phrase about the upside of hitting rock bottom being that things can’t get any worse. It goes göte giren şemsiye açılmaz and it means “an umbrella up one’s ass cannot be opened”

I (finally) wrote about why Sinn Féin lost the Irish election. Check it out!
(Spoilers for the impatient: yes, it was immigration - but no, the party should not have pivoted to the right.)

During Trump’s first presidency I realized Trump only cared about two things
1. The stock market
2. Positive Fox News coverage
Every action could be evaluated based on that rubric.
I forgot about it in the recent tariff drama but in hindsight he obviously wasn’t going to go through with it.

Elon Musk's mother moved to South Africa in the year Apartheid was created, and she and Elon left the year it ended. The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory.

I started watching Severance and was so confused. i warmed to it, though: a bold directorial decision to start mid-action, reflecting the characters' experiences! love a show that challenges the audience. OK well it turns out my husband had already watched the first five episodes on my account

Here's a little tip for dealing doom scroll brain: YouTube comments.
Not kidding.
Think of a song you used to like. Something from, say, your late teens or early twenties.
Go to YouTube, play the song to yourself again, & scroll them comments
