Given that Remmick's description of his colonisers being Christian doesn't easily match Irish history, and his name reads more Anglo than obviously Irish, maybe the idea is that he just successfully did in Ireland what he was trying to do in Clarksdale (absorbing people and their songs/culture)

Touching to have Spotify celebrate the 1-year anniversary of my layoff by demonstrating that they could not, in fact, still do Wrapped just as well without me.

The Irish election count is the best election count. Just loads of paper empties on a table and sorted into piles in front of everyone.

Happy Thanksgiving
A hog from a 19th century portrait, expanded and edited so that it stars in the New York City Thanksgiving parade. It is being carried by a group of Ronald McDonalds (which doesn't make sense, but does make sense because the original image was of a Ronald McDonald float).

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) asked her Instagram followers who split their ballot between her & Trump or Trump & another Dem to explain why they did it. The responses are v interesting (summary in ALT text). (📸 Screenshot: AOC on Instagram)
10 different responses from AOC’s insta followers. Reasons include a belief both AOC & Trump care for working class, neither are establishment politicians and because of anti-war sentiment.Further responses from AOC’s insta followers. Comments include a sense that both represent change.

Just one of the different brands of scammy nonsense you have to be aware of if you want to be a musician on the Internet Can't even count how many times someone has pretended to own my songs
