Scribs are little baby kwama. We shuck the shells, crush the flesh into a jelly. Doesn't taste bad. And filling. Takes a while getting used to the texture, though.

I despise Substack and have previously said I will never read it (and I don't). But I will break my rule just for this eally disturbing piece of writing by Neko Case, who was / is in a band, The New Pornographers, who were supported by The Frames in 2002. nekocase.substack.com/p/in-what-fu...
IN WHAT FUCKING UNIVERSE?

There's a guy getting kids up to dance on the street. He has about 4 toddlers reluctantlh dancing around him to Gimme Gimme Gimme and he's just told the toddlers "c'mon, you know this one"
Hate to admit this person from Non-Dublin has some points here. Nowhere is the Dead Dublin Theory better illustrated than the proliferation of new pubs done up to look like old pubs imo. Toxic to native fauna but serving the customer base it seeks. www.westernpeople.ie/opinion/dubl...

Today's youth would rather push hard drugs instead of a neighbour's Opel Kadett
You never see one car towing another any more. The NCT and extinction of the social contract have a lot to answer for
Psoriasis? More like Sore Ear and Ass! [I angrily launch a lengthy explanation that these are the areas most affected by my mild psoriatic condition in response to the cough-punctuated silence in the comedy club]
Work call this evening. Man: I’m down the country Me: Oh, enjoy! Man: I’m at a funeral. Me [smalltalk gauge on Empty]: Fair play!
Look the very idea of nuclear At Carnsore Point produced this so hear the man out
This is from 2012. You make it sound like everyone has gone back to the area around it. They have not. It is like Chernobyl, which cause all sorts of weird shit across Europe as well (think Hentai porn consumption in Sweden).

if the time between 10pm and midnight lasted 12 hours id rule the world
The Dept of Foreign Affairs and Fáilte Ireland need to get ahead of this. The entire budget for Hidden Heartlands must be redirected to undo the damage

I think this is my favourite Pictish carving, the utter confidence in the line with what its depicting, a close breathing familiarity to the natural world. Is it a tribal marker? Showing where these animals are found bountiful? Just a sheer joy of expression, a gratitude to these beings existing?
