Responding to my email job with the bone-weariness of a Greek mythic character being asked to push a rock up a hill.

Half man, half-wit. Dublin, Ireland. I have a book. https://linktr.ee/richycraven
But by all means, play your shitty fucking game.
Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.
I started Ludwig. A show that seems to be scientifically designed to be watched on a Sunday with a mild hangover.
A few book clubs have reached out to say they're reading Spirit Level. I'm always thankful for new readers *but* I did pay a therapist a lot of money to convince me that there weren't groups of people talking about me while I'm not there and now that feels a bit of a waste.
I don't think we appreciated what a landmark this was for representation in cartoons. As someone who also lives with an angry, vengeful monster where my stomach should be, this was huge. We Stan an IBS king.
I keep opening my news app out of habit and ruining my day.
Me: I can't wait for Autumn. *It starts to rain when I need to be somewhere*. Me: No, not like that.
Why is Chicken Tonight a perfectly fine brand name but Beef Soon isn’t
Okay, who owns the rights to Carmen Sandiego? I have a billion dollar idea.
Look at my girl 🥲🥰
Yeah, I'm almost positive she won't take it as a compliment. Wild from the Irish Times
Gavin Bazunu statement on withdrawing from Ireland squad Ireland only has 2 goal keepers in squad EUFA regulations require 3
It has been confirmed that Gavin Bazunu has withdrawn from the Republic of Ireland squad after a "significant majority" of players voted to fulfil tomorrow's nights UEFA Nations League game with Israel. #VMSport #FAI #Israel #Nationsleague
Lunchtime with Michael Fry Season 3 episode 4: Sir Maurice’s last will and testament is read out live on air. Will Michael inherit Ulster FM or will his years of reckless incompetence havae caused his Father to disinherit him?

Fair play to Bazunu for putting his head above the parapet and trying. Shame on the FAI.
20 years from now there’s gonna be a saipan-esque film about gavin bazunu that paints everyone else here as a complete prick and i am looking forward to it
Love Tony O'Donoghue talking about Saipan like a Marvel cameo making and in-joke
The heat from my body will iron out the wrinkles on my shirt, and other lies we tell ourselves
I have no idea what’ll happen with the lads but I am glad they are taking it seriously. It should never have been allowed to get this far. The neck of Martin saying that Palestine has been failed but not backing the cancellation of the game. A failure in leadership both in government and the FAI.
what happened to 90s video game star COOL SPOT?? This four part comic has the answer 1/4 🧵
Picturing Erling Haaland being sold at police auction like a drug lord's speedboat.

Call me a curmudgeon but I'm going to start looking into a moat to prevent every fucker with a broadband company lanyard and a sales commission from knocking at my door
In the year of our Lord of 2025, it shouldn't be this hard to convince door-to-door sales people for energy and broadband companies that I don't want to do these transactions unexpectedly on my doorstep.
In response to the new Oasis tour announcement, Ticketmaster has announced that they've doubled their IT and customer support staff to deal with expected demand. Both employees are very excited but they will have to share a desk.
I think we should take a leaf out of Wales' book and have a mythical creature on our flag like The Dullahan, The Cailleach or a single, working professional that can afford a house.
Small minority would consider new flag or anthem to make Irish unity acceptable to unionists
Micheál Martin applauded at the UN, condemning what’s happening in Gaza/West Bank “Nobody will be able to say that we did not know. Let it not be said that we did not act.’ Meanwhile his Gov has refused visas to fully funded students from Gaza. Talking out of both sides of his mouth
