Picked up a signed copy of tomjunod.Bsky.social’s fascinating memoir IN THE DAYS OF MY YOUTH I WAS TOLD WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A MAN during a recent visit to Books Are Magic in Brooklyn. Worth the flight alone.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I’ve just had my first glimpse of the extremely pretty maps of the Neagh Archipelago which come as a bonus print with the No Alibis special edition of #FewAndFarBetween preorder if you want to make sure you get one. Once they’re gone they’re gone.

Absolutely. Why should some people have a multiple vote for both chambers.

I’ve always argued for abolition of the Seanad. It’s crazy so few have the right to vote.
