Ireland has history with antisemitism that we haven't addressed, and a parallel history of rehoming fascists after WW2 that similarly needs addressing. I wish we could address these things while also being clear that we will never support theocratic genocide.

I think since they couldn't call it after Hind Rajab for reasons of precedent, the idea of naming it after Max Levitas was a good one.

It is pretty wild that a motion put forward, with barely any possibility of actual success, to rename a small Dublin park has become headline news all over the world.

Forgive my lack of knowledge in this area. The Ranelagh residents objecting to the Metro work, they had an opportunity to object at planning permission stage? Or is that what's happening now?

'Pont Saint-Louis, Paris,' (1928) shows off Albert Marquet's command of light, colour and space. There's real atmosphere in this work; a feeling of luminosity, the way Marquet articulates the flow of the Seine is a masterclass in creating movement.

Two things can be true at the same time: Israel is a rogue state engaged in genocide, and antisemitism is real and thriving. And because of the latter it's understandable that Ireland's small but proud and storied Jewish community might be feeling particularly sensitive right now

I've no strong opinion about it, but if they decided to rename my suggestion would be Tomi Reichental who survived Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, moved to Ireland in 1959, and dedicated his later years to educating young Irish people about the Holocaust

Just a heads up with all the Christmas markets and fairs on at the moment - if you see art or art-based pieces for sale, ask who the artist is, because the amount of people deceptively slapping "made locally" on pieces locally farted out by their computer and a genAI prompt is getting depressing

Tonight I got an Uber home and the driver had an IPad mounted in the backseat for passengers to watch which was screening a documentary about how to butcher a cow. At the time this did not strike me as odd but now I am safely home it strikes me as very odd indeed.

my wife grew up in Southern California and one time we were in Boulder and we went out to dinner while it was snowing and had to scrape off the car on the way there
I will never forget her outraged "what do you mean we have to do it AGAIN" when we came back to the car after dinner

I have nothing against you or your regional culture but there is an unbreakable spiritual bond between anyone who has ever had to scrape ice off a windshield while hungover
the annual snowfall required for me to take your city seriously is like 11” minimum. nobody is using 300 days of sun to serve the lord
