    Irish Times is known for their clickbait articles. Not too long ago, an article that was written just to generate outrage (fake tan is cultural appropriation), was found to be generated by AI, and I wouldn’t be surprised if this was also the case. My advice is to ignore anything Irish Times is writing. (I’ve been living in Ireland for well over a decade, and I learned to regard IT as the low end of the already poor media landscape here.)

      I was just going to say, of all places, this gets published by an Irish news outlet? Hah! It has been my experience moving there that in workplaces in Ireland is you go there, do your job and go home. No bullshit, the workplace is not a family, your colleagues are not your friends. In and out. Very efficient while on the clock, couldn’t give a fuck immediately after.
