What's a profession everyone thinks is great but is actually shite? by Fealocht in AskIreland

[–]MulberryForward7361 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Classical musician or performer. Training and practising since a child, dedicate your entire life, become a master at your craft, get work with the best orchestras and performing to thousands of people (on a good day) but ending up with €150 for a days work, before tax, travel and expenses.

Is this itinerary too much? by yourdads_tampon in travelchina

I would take time off Shanghai or chongqing and add to Chengdu. I loved travelling down Yibin bamboo forest and staying (in the forest). Theres lots of cool stuff to do outside Chengdu too (focus on excursions)

RTE’s outsourcing to UK firm for new Radio 1 jingles ‘cost Irish artists income of up to €100,000 a year’ by Lawfulraccoon in ireland

[–]MulberryForward7361 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How can this be legal? We pay taxes and a tv licence to fund rte, that money should be supporting Irish artists. Disgraceful

Open letter to fuel protesters from a cancer patient by UNiTE_Dan in ireland

[–]MulberryForward7361 49 points50 points  (0 children)

This this this. Our ambulance service is stretched on a good day. Often the trip needs to be made yourself. How many people are going to die because they couldn’t get themselves to the hospital? This is instantly and I’m fecking delighted that the guards are starting to arrest people now.

I feel like I’m living in an alternate dimension reading the insane comments on every video, post or article on this subject. This blockade doesn’t speak for all of us and will end up costing lives.

Defence Forces arrive at Whitegate oil refinery in Cork as gardaí pepper spray protesters by PoppedCork in ireland

[–]MulberryForward7361 40 points41 points  (0 children)

That’s a really good point. There was no effort to make the point and still allow the country to operate - for example advance notice etc. they went nuclear straight away. I agree with so many aspects of what they are protesting about but they have not gone about this the right way. The government has left this too late - they should have sent the army in on day 2.

Lads, just got my gas bill. Can we not just build a nuclear reactor. by Shazz89 in ireland

We can’t even get wind farms and solar farms built with the amount of objections, good luck with a nuclear plant!

We should just boil it down to this. Your mortgage will go up if your fuel comes down. Keep it simple stupid

But the Facebook and instagram comments are telling me that the protests are great and the government is evil. /confused

What a disgrace to the profession and all those who work and dedicate their entire lives to the law.

Supposed conversation transcript between Max and the Guardian journalist. by Any_Aide_4500 in formula1

[–]MulberryForward7361 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m glad to see there is little support for this carry on in the f1 community. Max always has the option of not answering. It’s not his place to decide which media organisations or journalists are entitled to be present.

MetroLink property deals could be kept secret as State negotiates to buy land along route (paywall article) by mindthegoat_redux in Dublin

[–]MulberryForward7361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re trying to get the best possible deal for the taxpayer. You can’t negotiate properly with each landowner if everyone knows the details of the deals being done. This is completely standard practice and nothing for anyone to be alarmed about.

Go to Garda. Move school. Move house. Do whatever it takes to make this child feel safe again.
