We knew at the time that legislation and provisions didn't go far enough. Now, it's mostly people in the most heartbreaking situations who are being left behind. Come out for a walk with @freesafelegal.bsky.social on Saturday. Ah, do.

Age verification for children means age verification for all. And age verification for all means ID verification for all. Why is this not being screamed from the rooftops?

In a script I’m writing one character insults another by describing him as “a bit of a golfer” and if anyone questions it I will be referring them to this.

I do love an older-and-younger-character-thrown-together-and-form-an-unlikely-friendship scenario and these two are wonderful in DTF St Louis. Also, the costume design, cinematography and lighting in this show are gorgeous.

A still from DTF St Louis with actors Richard Jenkins and Joy Sunday. They sit side by side on a wooden box bench in a large bare-looking cement-walled foyer. To the left, bars of light stream through the wooden wall slats giving a very contemporary chiaroscuro noir effect.

At the emergency vets and a woman has brought her cat in what appears to be a hat box. The receptionist can’t stop laughing.

A woman walks across a vet waiting room carrying a large circular cardboard box decorated with a purple and pink flower patter. The lid is half off just being kept on by the woman’s thumb. Not visible in the photo: the cat’s eyes and ears peeping out.

Rowling looming over a progressive Irish cultural festival with her menacing insinuations & a phalanx of expensive lawyers dashing off legal letters. And all because the organisers don’t want transphobes peddling hate at their event. A nauseating spectacle of spite.

You sometimes see Government TDs pointing out that Ireland isn’t unique in the world in having a housing crisis. But this graph in today’s Financial Times shows just how extreme ours is compared to the places elsewhere, which also describe themselves as a in a housing crisis.

The share of young adults living with their parents is climbing in many countries and cities, with Ireland leading the way % of people aged 25-34 who live with their parents. National averages vs major regions

[5 line graphs. Ireland’s is sharply above 40% since 2010. The rest show US, U.K., Canada and Australia. The next highest result is the US at just over 20%]

Le Guin on the idea that there is a secret to getting good at writing.

I will dispose of the first myth as quickly as possible. The “secret” is skill. If you haven’t learned how to do something, the people who have may seem to be magicians, possessors of mysterious secrets. In a fairly simple art, such as making pie crust, there are certain teachable “secrets” of method that lead almost infallibly to good results; but in any complex art, such as housekeeping, piano-playing, clothes-making, or story-writing, there are so many techniques, skills, choices of method, so many variables, so many “secrets,” some teachable and some not, that you can learn them only by methodical, repeated, long-continued practice — in other words, by work.

Walking through town one balmy evening recently a man, very off his head, bumped into me and my friend. After he apologised he shouted, with deep feeling, I’M ONLY TRYING TO UNFUCK MY LIFE. Been thinking about him since then. I hope the unfucking is going well.
