Molly Furey: 'At best, we could dress it up as a wholesome sense of curiosity – a joie de vivre for the eclecticism of Dublin life'. We treat our Dublin city steps like a set of pitchside bleachers. In an age of doom scrolling and brain rot, it has felt good (dare I say even revolutionary?) At best, we could dress it up as a wholesome sense of curiosity – a joie de vivre for the eclecticism of Dublin pedestrian life. It feels good, grounding even, to know that Garda One’s five debs trumps Garda Two’s mere three.
