So government at odds over welfare aid to fight inflation
All that will happen is prices will go up to absorb all that financial help
What’s needed is emergency law to criminalise price gouging
It’s pretty simple
The UK are now upping interest rates to curb inflation a measure that works in a normal economy but in an out of control economy it just causes misery
In the UK in 1919 a war profiteering act was introduced making it illegal to profit from war
It’s illegal to profit from war in the UK and Germany
And I bet that law still is on our statute book because we were part of the UK in 1919
Unless of course it’s been repealed
Maybe some legal expert could look into it
Just looked it up it was repealed 1983 but can be reinstated by the senate if needed
Kin
Oireachtas
And here’s me an Irishman calling the place which laws are drafted a senate
Amazing how powerless the government is when it’s profiteering from its people with massive taxes
They cannot build homes they are shutting A&Es in Hospitals they cannot protect our people but maybe if we become all public sector workers we might get a bit of protection

Time, flowing like a river
Time, beckoning me
Who knows when
We shall meet again, if ever
But time keeps flowing
Like a river to the sea
Goodbye my love
Maybe for forever
Goodbye my love
The tide waits for me
Who knows when
We shall meet again, if ever
But time keeps flowing
Like a river (on and on)
To the sea, to the sea
‘Til it’s gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forevermore
Goodbye my friend
(Goodbye my love)
Maybe for forever
Goodbye my friend
(Who knows when
We shall meet again)
The stars wait for me
Who knows where
We shall meet again, if ever
But time keeps flowing
Like a river (on and on)
To the sea, to the sea
‘Til it’s gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forever now
Forevermore, forevermore

Janet, dreams of an alternate universe
Well a last goodbye, it’s been interesting watching people’s reactions to the end of an era, some eloquent, reflective and warm, some pointing and spitting, screeching and blaming. It’s like a messy breakup and a civilized breakup at the same time of this many headed relationship that’s so different for all of us with Broadsheet and each other.
I feel I have learned a lot about myself over the years on here, how willing to be honest and engage, how willing to listen to other maddening points of view and be patient, how willing to throw the sly punch ( johnny I’m sorry for loosing the rag with you ).
I have painted pictures of many of you in my head and thought that would be a great person for a pint or two.
I’m a real sucker for staying in touch with old flames you just have to remember not to bang them after a few….
so I’ll say until we meet again and if you see me knocking about say hi :)

The Day Of Our Divorce Hearing
by Ruth Lepton
You treated me to lunch, a spaghetti place.
We had never been so kind to each other.
When you said I’m still a slob, we laughed.
After lunch, we stood in the parking lot.
You said, you have the last word,
but I said, No, I’m tired of being
the one who sums things up.
You get the last word.
But you couldn’t think of one.
So off you went to our silver car,
I to our red one.
It’s three years later.
And even that’s just a story now.
Lately I don’t feel as if I lived with you.
But I remember our kindness that day,
when it no longer mattered.
Papi
Beautiful, take care Millie.
mills
You too, Papi.
Nice to see you pop back in. I missed your bold self.

The poem just kind of resonated with me, felt a little like how it’s been here over the past few days. I hadn’t been reading so much. The atmosphere in the comments had been unfortunately so toxic. It’s not good for the head.
As I said though, the past few days have really reminded me of the great journalism broadsheet have produced over the years, the fantastic contributors, and the wealth of commenters. So it’s been incredibly bittersweet.
Love the link btw.

I know what you mean. I was scrolling at speed looking for people who hadn’t lost it. It is bittersweet and then some. Take care Milly. Good people with open hearts and minds have a habit of finding similar people.

Bring the little children on to me… and I’ll get you a great price… jokes aside, if I identified as a one armed man (and there are people who do) and when to my doctor and said it was causing me immense harm and pain, this having to have the two arms, do you think he’s solution would be to cut it off? I didn’t think so, and yet, if it’s my cock and balls, I don’t have to pay. The world is gone mad.
Rosette of Sirius
I’ve been knocking around here pretty much since day one in one way or another so I thought I’d sign off with the following…
In parts of Canada, the collective noun for wild rabbits is ‘fluffle’
A ‘fluffle of bunnies’.
I think that’s rather cute.
So, with that in mind and I mean this in the best possible way…
…so long all you fluffle bunnies, stay safe, live well and…

And now, the end is near
Bodger draws the final curtain.
This place held very dear
It’s time to go, there’s no more flirtin’.
Back to, a life that’s dull
Just pulling weeds out in the driveway
And no more Nick’s Esteem to do on Fri-day.
Egrets, I’ve seen a few
Standing lonely to attention.
In the Dodder, Tolka too
Photos taken worth a mention:
Including dogs of every breed
Rescued out along the highway
Without these daily pics
We might just pine-away.
Then came a time, I’m sure you knew
The ‘Sheet bit more than it could chew
Threw a punch, received a clout
Ate it up and spat it out
Faced it all, standing tall,
And did it Ryan’s way.
