STILL EMPLOYED

Unemployment doubled in Ireland over the last year, and maybe soon it’ll triple, so now the government is doing the obvious: distributing suicide prevention materials. (The suicide rate in Ireland, by the way, has tripled since the 1950s.) This is sad, because it is not at all the Irish who I want to be doing themselves in. There’s like eight other countries, at least, higher on my list!
