The Govt’s response wouldn’t be “hang on, they let us print flyers there too”.
Absolutely blows my mind that Americans have this attitude to work / life. That they put up with hardly any annual leave, being in massive debt for health and education, no paid maternity leave. Greatest land in the World though... for employers.

One of the handwritten gift notes that I can include for free with all orders, if desired.
First year selling my art at Christmas without the Other site, where most of my sales came from, as well as losing US orders to new tariffs, so it'll be a tough one - I put huge work into every order, so even if you can't buy, shares help get them in front of eyes. GRMA! www.ciaraioch.com/artprints
They are! I'm loathed to open them 😊
Is that a toy show peak at 11pm?!
A screenshot of Green Collective's records dashboard. It shows current and past wind output records in MW (red dots) and as a percentage of demand (blue dots) on the Irish grid. It also lists out top 5 timestamps with highest all-island wind output, the top one being Friday December 5 2025 @9:30: 4671MW.

oh cool I’ve been meaning to learn anxiety
Fucking love when gross men face consequences.
We were gold and blue for the first few years, which are the school colours. Then with increased numbers red got shoehorned in, and I went from gold to red 🥲 e.g. Form 1 gold
