“I know there’s a lot happening in the world, but I want to share a headline from Irish news.

•A rare, protected snail in Clare is legally blocking Trump from expanding his Doonbeg golf course, because its habitat is protected under environmental law.

I am firmly on the snails side.“

What did they do to you?
(insert the snark thingy here.)
The salient feature is they are working overtime to make it so NOBODY wants to live here. Wait to hear the bellyaching over not having people willing to work for dickheads for nothing in order to get their yard-work done and their bed-pans emptied. Oh, pardon me, I forgot we’re doing this to take back all those cherry jobs for White “Murkins”.
Save yourselves, my little Mollusk friends
