Looking at this guy and this list, I’m saying this is too much power for anyone to have. Especially a white privileged billionaire.

I was at an event in @kennysbookshop.bsky.social last summer where Alex Dawson read from the 1st chapter & honestly I’ve been wanting to know more of the story since. This is great news!

Recently my library account flagged a book as being long overdue when I had returned it months ago. Mentioned it to the librarian who sorted it (small glitch) which was great b/c if my library cuts me off, I’m screwed! I don’t have the money or space to indulge my many book genre interests/curiosity

The sad thing is I have shown more care and understanding to my dog while training her than this child received from his father. And I didn’t need a pair of fucking glasses to tell me to do it either. These people have no shame so they should just be booed in public. Loudly and persistently.

I hate that b/c I can’t work full time due to the health issues I live with every day, this kind of thing feels like I need to justify how productive I am in my day to be “of use” to people, to be “worthy”. Sometimes keeping myself going is the work I get up to do.

Sometimes as an only child I do wonder what it’s like to have a family group chat with more than 2 people & then someone shows me the GenAI picture slop their siblings are making & sharing in their group as part of hahaha we’re so funny & I realise I’m grand as I am actually.

It was the anxiety & all the time being upset that got me to the GP b/c sure I overthink things but this was a new and unwelcome level. When it affected me walking my dog I had to do something. Can’t do that to Dora! On HRT since Sept ‘23. Game changer…

I remember guys like this in college. They have what Momo called a “want” about them. Makes them creepy and ones to avoid b/c they offer nothing. You’re a status not a person to them. So “cool people”or girls they like give them a wide berth & they go on to ruin others. Mutton heads all of them.

At age 100 my grandmother needed help moving around & didn’t go out but she lived more than this guy. (She tried on my new mittens & refused to give them back, she told me her UGG boots were nicer than anything I had, she consumed her weight in ice cream, she threw sweets at people who bored her…

From 1999-2001 I was a data entry operator for a trade magazine publisher inputting data off subscription cards what used to be in magazines. To cancel they either rang us or posted a card. It got done. In 2010 I learned how to put forms on Wordpress sites. It ain’t rocket science.

Anytime I’ve taken minutes at meetings, the phrase “after much discussion it was decided that…” usually covers the talking in circles and tangents before they get to the damn point.

The more money a person who is in supposed service to a country or cause gets, the thicker they seem to become. We are currently stuck with politicians who are either 3 lobbyists in a trench coat or shockingly poor in the critical thinking department.

As someone with crohns who’s dealt with the kind of thing during extreme flare ups, this is all extremely valid information. This isn’t your body purging something that doesn’t agree with it or a 24 hr bug. Don’t do it to yourself. It fucks with your body AND your mind.

It’s a fact universally acknowledged that if someone mentions a book on here, chances are good I will library reserve it. Case in point: EVERYTHING WILL SWALLOW YOU by @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social that I collected this morning…

the actual humiliation comes from knowing you’re not going to make the toilet in time when you’re a grown adult hoping that today you will get a break & go out like everyone else and do your shopping & not have fecal incontinence. Before I got my stoma I stopped going out anywhere that wasn’t a…

Blue sky user in response to a post about the Irish Can’t Wait card scheme where people with medical conditions could use the toilet in businesses if they need it urgently: “also is it not kind of humiliating that o have to get a card to “entitle” you to use the toilet?

Caro @librarypatroncaro.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

This is a good question but as someone with crohns & a stoma, if I’m in a shop or business & I realise something is going wrong with me urgently, I do not have the time to go looking for the closest public toilet & why should I when there is a toilet in the actual building I’m in.

This & placing damp cloths on your arms and neck (arterial cooling) are what @deeholloway.bsky.social taught me when I messaged her in 2013 in Croatia absolutely roasting at night. It came in handy in a 1st aid capacity too so I am grateful for that tip!

If you’re being misogynistic about this film and anything in general, then fix your heart because you’re probably a prick.

I saw this movie. I enjoyed it. A lot. It says a lot that a film that has human trafficking & a mission to save a dog is getting slammed by certain folk. John Wick shot everyone in his way to avenge his dead dog but Supergirl can’t kick the shit out of evil brigands to save hers?…

The teams who handle the day to day running of the Oireachtas do not seem to be the quickest thinkers or even aware of implications of things. When they talk about echo chambers and bubbles, this lot seem to be in the most sealed one possible.

Spare us from the self important ramblings of hideously ignorant adult converts to Catholicism. Also which version of the Nicene Creed? The long or the short one? Because in a sense that thing is already “butchered” depending on how attached you are to the long version

Caro @librarypatroncaro.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

I’m going to say that there’s a least half a dozen people, probably women, who sit on Catholic Church committee/pastoral councils/finance committees and are more powerful American catholics than aul JD.

Hey everyone, Google is trying to turn YouTube into a social network. If you post a link (especially if you don't get rid of tracking), it will display your YouTube account and name when it's opened. I don't want that, and you probably don't. Turn this shit off!

Which I think is absolutely terrible. I’ve no connection to publishing but buying someone a book & saying to the writer “but YOU have to sell it” is baffling. And insulting that publishers aren’t better at their jobs. (No, I don’t care if you think it’s an okay business practice)

Nothing to learn or gain for yourself by just being in another place. By having gotten there despite any travel pitfalls. By seeing the sunrise from a different window. Nothing to learn about yourself. Nothing to learn for yourself. What a soulless way to live. Such a pitiful man.
