I went looking for old anti-vaccine propaganda and expected an interesting historical curiosity. Instead I found arguments from 1802, 1885 and 1920 that would barely need rewriting to circulate online today. That raises a rather disconcerting question.

Thanks to the Plant Identifier app I now know this is Cymbalaria muralis, commonly called ivy-leaved toadflax. Other names include coliseum ivy, Kenilworth ivy, mother of thousands, Oxford ivy, and wandering sailor. The folk at my local coffee shop will no doubt be delighted 😆
Rathmines Post Office has moved to an alcove at the back of the Centra store. Problem is, the alcove can only be accessed via a narrow entryway. Was planning permission granted for this? Because it feels like a potential death trap. Is there access to an emergency exit? @LaceyDermot @PeterDooleyDub
Maybe it’s the weather but a cup of coffee and these songs are a fine way to ease into this morning.

Brian Patten 1946 - 29 September 2025 Eamon Carr and I had the pleasure of publishing beautiful poems by Brian in Capella. I read with him in Dublin, Liverpool and Edinburgh. He was the 'marvellous boy' of the 60s and early 70s, an influential figure and a friend. May he rest in peace.
Came across this memorial to James Joyce in Dublin on Bloomsday and felt obliged to demolish it in his honour 😊 #AperolSpritz
