Hey #MastoDaoine of #Dublin 8, has anyone around #Kilmainham or #Inchicore noticed recent appearance of right-wing-y, fascist-y, football-hooligan-y, Ultr*-y, German language-y type stickers on lamp posts, street signs, and pillar boxes? Bit shocking.
Littering is bad of course, fine upstanding people of #Mastodon will figure out has to be done I'm sure.
In other news my fingers nails are in ruins from scratching at small bits of sticky paper.
