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.

When searching the internet for for Irish mobile phone "location based services", I perchanced upon a webpage on the "02" site offering spying services to employers (http://web.o2.ie/portal/business/enhanced_business_solutions/location_based_services/). Its a shame too that the only function they have found for this technology is for surveillance. read full story / add a comment

I've been trying to work out who will be listed as anti-bin tax local election candidates.
I'm not making any comment on whether this is a waste of time, just merely trying to ascertain who is likley to be the candidate in each ward. Below is the list I have compiled. I'm not sure that this is accurate. I'm only going on previous announcements. That's where you come in. read full story / add a comment

“What is the use of rainbow week” is the title of a tread on the UCD student union message board. Followed by a comment that says “I don't know if the scrawls on the posters were homophobic - sounds like it was people who think it's funny to slag gay people, not necessarily homophobes!” Reading this makes me think of this Le Tigre song Tres bien and the line “because they will try to convince us that we have arrived, that we are already there, that it has happened. Because we need to live in the place where we are truly alive, present, safe and accounted for.” read full story / add a comment
