The carnage on the streets of Dublin last night wasn't spontaneous.
It was the result of a campaign of misinformation, disinformation, lies and incitement to hatred.
I'll lay out a detailed chronology of how the far-right orchestrated it, as the day unfolded yesterday. /1
When you burn people out, you push them out. Stars are the first to leave—they have the most opportunities.
The solution is not to pile on the perks. It’s to pinpoint the root causes of overload and design more manageable jobs.
If you want to keep people, stop exhausting them.
If you're sitting on the bus and there are loads of empty seats, but someone sits beside you, just keep looking straight ahead and say "did you bring the money?"

She was recently interviewed by @irishexaminer on the 'rewards and challenges of studying and working in Ireland'.

"Acceptance of breaks in training, increased flexi-time opportunities, on-site hospital childminding facilities and increased availability of fellowship posts in Ireland are examples of potential strategies."

Its incredible that in 2022 most of Ireland’s political parties support funding the greyhound racing industry to the tune of over €18m a year.
Organisations like Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind get a tiny fraction of that.
Cruelty in the industry continues to be a huge concern.
Urgency can become a compulsion when we've experienced childhood trauma. A feeling that we need to immediately respond, that we can never rest, or that we must "fix" every issue immediately. This is our helpless inner child trying to stay safe & to be needed.
The government subsidy to Horse Racing Ireland ('The Sport of Kings') is higher than the budget for Child and Adolescent Mental Health services in Ireland.
Several of Ireland's tax fugitives own studs & are subsidised by the State.
Some areas still have no out of hours CAMHS.
@robertmckenna I also cook some meals a few days in advance (two to three) but the 'meal prep' culture is a very specific thing espoused mostly by American fitness enthusiasts, associated with self-optimisation and tight control of one's diet.
South Africa is a traumatic and traumatised country.
But forcing people to live their lives in the dark and cold - without respite or solution - can only be intensifying our nation’s mental health crisis.
the older i get, the more i realize that the most luxurious thing is being able to live in a walkable city. wearing a nice little outfit and walking 15 mins to buy just enough groceries for a single dinner will make you feel like Mrs. Dalloway going to the market
