Interested to know who your vote-spoiling family would have voted for? Or was it a more general protest against * gestures vaguely at everything*?

Genuine question which I think we'll all have to consider after this count. If spoilt votes are heterogenous and should be examined for meaning.

Times I've wished I was still there = 1, during the election count here in Ireland. I'm begging journalists and political dorks like me to move over here. There is no reason to stay in that cess pool. Please bring your live political news reporting here, that's all I miss.

Yup. I'm a social media consultant, so I really thought for a while that I *had to* stick it out there. But eventually decided no, f*** that. And so far, impact to my business = 0. Times clients have questioned me / my business not being on X = 0.

Happy French Cupcake day! You don't look 75.

This feels such a key part of Harm Reduction. Whether drugs are legal or not, knowing what's in what you're taking and how strong it is is fundamental to whether you're at risk of serious harm or not.

Same applies to beer even. We all know sinking an 8% IPA will mess you up more than a 3.5% lager.

Outside the Barbers pub!

And the transphobes don't even realise their crusade is being used as a distraction while the billionaires hoover up our incomes and destroy our planet. Make sure we keep turning against each other so we don't have time to notice how we're actually being screwed.

You've broken my heart Angela 😭

Bought! Thank you! X

I'd love to buy the print. Had a quick look on your redbubble but couldn't see it, would you mind sharing the link here?

This is lovely. Are you selling it?

The Lighthouse in Smithfield does an 11am screening. It's baby-friendly so lights are up a bit and volume down a bit but still perfectly enjoyable for non-baby-owners!

Hot take 1: Hang Dai is overrated.

Hot take 2: Caviar is only enjoyed because it tastes of elitism.

These are amazing Simon. Does your mother sell her work at all? Where could we find it?

Not delph or bedding, but for furniture you'll get gorgeous (reproduction) retro style furniture at www.salternativefurniture.ie For actual vintage furniture, keep your eyes on adverts.ie and frequent charity shops, you can find great value diamonds out there. Character > convenience.

The US-centricity at Facebook was galling because the focus was always on scalability: bespoke arrangements (on policies, tools etc) couldn't happen at national level because they weren't scalable globally. So the standard to which the whole world had to commit was "what works in and for the US".

Wait til y'all hear about decentralized organizing.

Followed!
