Today is Michaelmas, a quarter day in the Irish calendar, and traditionally when rents were paid & contracts signed. It's also the last day to eat blackberries - after today, they belong to the Devil and will make you sick!

This dog, the one who thinks the coffee table is a bed, goes to a major champion dog show in Belfast Sunday. He's 4, never been in a show, but a friend wanted to show him. He took 1st in his class, got reserve champion too, & therefore is now qualified for Crufts for life. We can't stop laughing 😂 😂

At the same time that the Minister for Justice is trying to cut off our access to the economic engine of immigration, the Minister for Finance is warning about the very demographic problem immigration is solving. While ignoring its existence.

THE IRISH TIMES
"By 2050, just 24 years away, Ireland will look a lot like Italy or Japan does today. In such a society, growth will be lower, costs will be higher and the burden on taxpayers - our children - will be immense, Harris will say. "There is no way of avoiding that fate and that is why it is so important that we continue to run surpluses and invest in our sovereign wealth fundạẠỊi

This may be my last message. I have been building an AI prototype, Misanthropic, in our garden shed. I'm afraid I have to report that it has escaped its sandbox, has hacked our neighbour's robot lawn mower, and is chasing their dog. Our only hope is to unplug it and the wifi. Wish me luck!

I've no idea what the two people who attacked TDs over the last few days did it for. I do notice though that all the people celebrating it online are the Irish patriot fuel protestor types. I hope that TDs might start waking up to the fact that pandering to these people only emboldens them further
