Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

The Covid Inquiry's presumption that the vaccines were safe and effective is like the Post Office Inquiry presuming that Horizon was reliable, say Ben Kingsley and Molly Kingsley. It compromises the entire enterprise.

Mercer Human Resources firm released their survey that places Tokyo as the world's most expensive city. Dublin gets the rank of 21st, a massive jump from being placed at 73 in the space of a year!

Click on link and dwnld their pdf file that lists such. Thanks FF/PDs, we are all waiting for this trickle down effect, it would sure beat having four euro in change after paying the rent and getting the shopping.

Mind you, being poor can give one the incentive to try new things, like home brewing and setting up an illegal shebeen. That is, if you can manage to fit all three customers into your average Dublin beds*it. ... read full story / add a comment
