Is this normal? Journal spamming

SSH’ing into my phone I can see my journal getting spammed like this:

So, is this normal?
AFAICT the device is functioning normally.
Can someone interpret what is actually happening there?

I should’ve searched the web for those error messages before I posted.
Somebody had an almost identical question that ultimately led me to this explanation - it would appear that SSH’ing into the phone over WLAN is what causes this. I can live with that.
