The guy in front of me in Subway ordered my go-to sandwich so I freaked out and ordered my third preference.

A senior manager at work asked in a public channel for intern interviews if she could record interviews and summarize notes with an AI tool. We're fucking cooked.

(that Ditch article is the most human Humphries have come across to me, so maybe her campaign should bring it up)

Is Gavin genuinely as thick as he seems or are FF malcontents/FG and media class really digging the boot in? Humphries also has property skeletons in the closet on the public record but it has not come up at all for whatever reason www.ontheditch.com/heather-hump...

I love Belfast: one of the best cities on this island. We've played 3 times in the last year and it's always inspiring. Everyone we have met is super kind and engaged, with a real sense there is space to make a life in the city around arts, politics or whatever. They also have this.

Yes, I want to see headlines about the millions of euros that are spent so people who were once elected can store their car in the centre of Dublin. haul them in front of an oireachtas committee!

“The Office of Public Works spends around €1.2 million every year leasing car parking... spaces for the Revenue Commissioners cost over €100,000 annually. Parking for Leinster House itself runs to a similar figure each year. These are recurring bills, quietly signed off without any outrage”

Those outraged by a €100k bike shed should look at the annual cost of renting out car park spaces

goner-records.com/pages/gonerf... really enjoying the gonerfest stream in full, but the Thursday headline lightning bolt set is purifying. The only band that makes multiple freight trains passing the stage seem appropriate.

This feels like the toxic masculine version of the always delightful "slightly off-mic laughter from Paul F Tompkins before he is introduced as the podcast guest"

The Subway piece kind of assumes some working knowledge of local Tuam businesses from the mid 2000s, so good to see this isn't a huge barrier for enjoyment.
