she/her, 30-something, too ill and tired for The Discourse, took me this long to finally give in to a twitter alternative
like crafts, music, birds, cats, etc.
queer as in ‘unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe’

Weirdly AI is making me a more productive writer because any time I get stuck, or run out of momentum on a document, I ask myself "What are you going to do, Richy? Ask the machine for help?" and then I'm suddenly fueled by sufficient spite to keep going.

I operate on a higher level of Irish hereditary spite than most. Plenty of you will make fun of your English friends for colonialism but when my friend Sven comes over I make sure he doesn't raid or pillage any monasteries.

often when i listen to the irish times politics podcast (masochism) i hear them frame the housing crisis as somehow linked to immigration, too
the housing crisis is one of ff&fg for *decades* treating houses as investments for the rich to squeeze money from, not homes for people to comfortably live

Once again, if you believe that FF&FG would only love to give us a well-resourced, world beating welfare state but it’s just those pesky immigrants won’t let them, you are a gobshite. You have a loyalty card with your local bridge salesman. You were, in fact, born yesterday.

Imagine being Irish and being anti immigration??? Make it make sense! How’s your uncle getting on there in Sydney? How’s your nephew doing in Dubai? I heard the American cousins were over for a visit last month?

In the original you’re aware of the horror of falling, but the body positions of the workers are solid on the beam. Here, most of them should be falling off, yet they don’t, because they live in an unreal, consequence-free space.

being mildly faceblind is mostly inconvenient but sometimes it’s Very Funny Actually, bc as i was reading this tweet i was fully going ‘God that’s a fierce sinister pic of Micheál Martin they’re after using…’ until i looked at it for about the third time
What would happen if a foreign army occupied Shannon airport? What a strange concept! tis hard to figure out what would happen if a extremely militarised nation with notions of empire decided to use Shannon. The idea is so wild and out there.
Oh.. right...

As well as the physically harmful booby traps, Kevin McCallister set up one that just covered the burglars in glue and feathers.
This shows that he understood that it was important to break them psychologically as well as physically.
