  1. This is shameful!

    "Survivors fighting Bessborough apartment plans prepared to chain themselves to diggers

    Cork City Council has granted permission for 140 apartments, a decision that is currently being appealed to An Coimisiún Pleanála, with a decision due by July 9"

  2. CW: lots of bs, traumadumping

    Goddess help me, today was horrible

    I got to work and the girl before me did almost nothing before she left

    the customers were all being mean and angry

    the truck came in, a full day early, while I was the only one working

    I kept making dumb mistakes because I was overwhelmed

    a guy came in to work on the registers, and his voice sounded exactly like Krish, one of the men that assaulted me

    I was hiding in the back room crying every chance I got

    I was panicking and triggered for basically my entire shift

    everything hurts

    I'm exhausted but too adrenaline to rest

    my brain is on fire

    and I think my coworker who came in to relieve me was annoyed that I hadn't gotten more done

    but I'm listening to music from Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VI and it's helping me calm down

    I have an appointment with my therapist on Tuesday

    "I'm alive, but I'm not well"

  3. This Sunday, a group of survivors, advocates, and public representatives will gather at the gates of the former Bessborough mother and baby home to read aloud the names of the children known to have died there.

    Organisers said the gathering is in response to the decision at the end of February by Cork City Council to grant planning permission for 140 apartments on the site.

  4. *Long update post*

    A month ago, on my old instance, I posted this photo of a tiny pademelon joey we found wandering about without a mother. Although small to be on his own, he (joeys all seem like boys to me, but it might be a girl) was able to feed himself, had good hiding instincts and the weather was warm so we thought he'd be able to survive OK without human assistance.

    I'm happy to say he's fine, and we named him Chandler (Joey, Chandler, get it?). Every night, we watched him hop from the forest to the house at dusk. He initially preferred to eat little grass shoots between the paving and in the driveway gravel, but after a couple of weeks he moved around to the other side of the house where it's more grassy.

    He's grown now, so we can't identify him amongst the other joeys that are ganining independence but I'm sure Chandi's there with the rest of them.
