The mind boggles. A few years ago there was a young man died after falling off the battlements in an Italian fortress city. The photo one of the papers used was of him dressed as a clown. It’s not hard to crop a photo you know.
‘Attention sub-editors: No wait, we fired all the subs. Ah well. Onto the page it goes.’
This is what happens when you sluice copy and photos right off the wires and straight onto the website/page.

Great to see the guy from Human Centipede keeping busy. Also, is it a prerequisite for psychiatric nurses that they look like they just walked out of a B-movie based in a Victorian asylum?
Also, I always thought prisons in the Philippines looked like great craic.
Terrific. Fun fact: The guy who initiated those dances was inspired by the Flower Duet scene in Shawshank. Depressing on so many levels.
We did a photo shoot for Bushmills. To be clear: They gave us a bunch of money and we were able to finish [my recording studio] without borrowing. It was great for us, and everybody that worked at the company was great, and I love Bushmills and wanted to do the deal because my dad loved Bushmills — we bond over Irish whiskey. But the problem is that it isn’t just Bushmills. It’s run by a corporation, and you kind of forget that they’re not interested in you or really what you’re doing. They’re interested in your popularity and your reach, and it felt really sickening after a while. Not badmouthing Bushmills the company, but I regret it.

We heard you like cocaine so we painted your van so everyone would know you like cocaine, plus we stuffed the seats with cocaine. Also: It runs on cocaine.
Spotted in Midleton yesterday. I met one of the people from the DAWG place when I was running in the woods a couple of days ago. She had a three-legged dog. It outran me.
