I hope they have the party to beat all parties and that the miserable fuck who did this gets help.
In Ballymena today as it holds its 1st ever pride, but also where some disgusting bigots have dumped slurry on the parade route.
A huge thank you to the businesses who have rallied round to clean up the mess.
The lesson for these bigots, Pride goes on. We’ve dealt with your shit for far too long.

What a beautiful world
Imagine knowing that everyone doing any work of any kind was doing it not because they had to for survival income but because they chose to for discretionary income or because of the work itself. Universal basic income would fundamentally transform every interaction with every provider of a service.

Met a friend who got called “a paki” this week in a Dublin pub. He’s Irish and has dark features. We have got to call the racism out. On the bus, on the luas, on the train, in the playground, in the pub - if you hear it call it out. Be in solidarity with the person being othered. This is not us.

Has anyone out there tracked Dublin ambulances to see which roads are their most used routes, and where one is most likely to hear siren noise? I want so badly to live in a part of the city that isn't bombarded with siren noise all day long. This particular sound turns my brain inside out.

Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality
![[“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hppum4l25hcczzffastsicpq/bafkreihuubdwcftfkvvlnepoaf6pfxqulryfp7ydrydi5fe2pflwz63wgm@jpeg)
