Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...
Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Eight years married today to this wonderful human. I know more about conservation architecture than I ever thought I would and he knows more about pop culture than I think he likes to admit.

Wouldn’t mind my own collector's cabinet. This one belonged to William Bragge (1823-1884). A civil engineer, antiquarian and author…he eventually established a museum and art gallery. Mostly sliced and polished specimens of agates in this one.
