    We grew Brandywine tomatoes this year mostly because of the LOTR name. No regrets! A beautiful pink colour.

    One of my favourite bits in the Dirty Dust /Graveyard Clay is the character who chimes in about every 25 pages to praise Hitler. It's kind of comforting to know that the Irish were coming out with the same bullshit as now even at the time.

    Yeah, I can't imagine my "This is absolute nonsense lads" attitude would go down well in the interview.

    This blockchain company is trying to poach me via linkedin https://algorand.foundation/ tempted to go for it just because I think it'd be hilarious to see what it's like inside a "blockchain foundation"

    https://www.irishtimes.com/business/work/think-that-working-from-home-is-here-to-stay-think-again-1.4484553 working overtime to get everyone back into offices, i'd say expect a LOT more of this, working from home is sexism and contributing to the patriarchy etc.

    Back in the 90s many people used to call things "gay" just meaning "rubbish," i'm sure you remember. Very similar to how people call things "cringe" now, it had that aspect to it. It had absolutely no homophobic connotations to most people who used it that I ever came across, but over time it...

    Is stupid ok to say? I'm torn between "words evolve" and "god I don't care, i'll just stop using the dumb stupid words because I don't actually want to offend people" I can learn some new words, right?

    My dad is always saying he wanted to do so much when he was younger, and he put it off until he retired, but now that he's retired he's too tired to do any of it.

    I know too many people who are killing themselves with work right now with the idea of retiring at 45-50, and maybe they will, and have a stress free life after that and the joke will be on me. However, the hardest working person I know doing this is already moving into chronic pain issues in...

    I got this job 2 and a half years ago with the precise plan of getting a house with an affordable mortgage so I wouldn't have to do jobs like this any more, which I have now done. There's no way of doing this job part time or it not taking up 50+ hours a week (even if I wasn't on thumped i'd...
