@404mediaco@mastodon.social That the company's CEO refers to people who write things themselves as "human-writing maximalists" says more than enough.

@ebel@moytura.org Haven't done it as a big trip, but I have gone along a few of the trails and they're lovely. There are definitely places to stay along the way, the only issue is that some of them may only be open seasonally so December may be a bit trickier. You're never too far from Dublin itself and there are some busses that run near the route in case the weather gets really bad and you have to bail.

@epilonious@toot.lgbt They look like immature pencils. They probably just need a bit more time to grow and fully develop.

@kelpana @EUCommission I had the same thought with non-EEA immigrants living in Ireland. So many visas require a subscription to private healthcare as a condition of residence.
Some colleagues and I wrote a piece on the environmental history of nitrates for the iN-Net nitrates governance blog. Quite short but hopefully an interesting entry point into the topic for people!

@kelpana @EUCommission While so many Irish nurses and doctors go over to Australia or Dubai for better pay. It's disgusting for a supposedly modern nation with so much in its coffers.

I'm reading CoDex 1962 by Sjón and it is so lovely. I've never read a book like this and despite it's size and strange narrative structure I haven't felt intimated or tired by it.
To paraphrase, it's easier for folk to imagine the end to the world than to imagine the end of YouTube or Instagram.

In trying to find a short term lease in Kansas City I've been tricked into having an email conversation with a landlord's AI chatbot.
Posting the conversation below because it is so strange to have an exchange like this email:
In what other industry can you be unemployed and still expected to take on such responsibility? Sometimes I wonder what I've gotten myself into.

@sarahtaber@mastodon.online Caprese sandwiches also. Especially since basil is so often swapped out for spinach.
