#Hivemind I’m writing a short piece on how, during COVID restrictions, individuals & communities in Ireland came up with various ways of honouring the dead at the time of a funeral. Lining the funeral route, socially distanced, is of course one example. Would love to hear more local examples…

I’m sure what the lady had meant by this was the expression “to jog one’s memory”, but I just think the word “jiggle” here is far superior on every level.

Salvador Ryan @salvadorryan.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

I’ve just had the most delightful language experience with a Polish lady who was working in a shop. Having asked for a particular item which the shop used to sell but which wasn’t to be found today, I explained what it was and when I last bought it there.
