One day until retirement 🥲
The country seems to have resoundingly chosen Catherine Connolly as our new president, and I'm sure she will continue to bring humanity to the position, just like her predecessor. I'll miss seeing Michael D Higgins being a legend, standing up for what's right, and his lovely dogs.

Boom!

A good deal of my time spent on the beach at Jökulsárlón is trying to capture waves hitting icebergs, without the iceberg moving (and being blurred). Occasionally it all comes together :)

socialised healthcare is truly awful*, an example of which is that i walked into a local pharmacy this afternoon, asked for a covid booster and even without an appointment, got it literally ten (10) minutes later and it was FREE

*fucking amazing

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

79% of homes sold in Dublin this year were bought by landlords, 75% by large landlords. About 1 in 5 TDs are landlords.

This is disgusting dog whistling. The problem has never been people seeking asylum. The problem is people seeking to endlessly profit from folks just looking for a home.
🗣️ "The one thing that there is a problem with is housing right across the state, and the more that come to seek asylum, the more pressure it puts on that system.” - Fianna Fáil Minister of State Timmy Dooley

Paintings that seem to glow from within baffle me.

How can you create something with your hands and paint that seems to exude light? Astonishing.

This is a lie. Trans people are not a "risk" to cis women.

The only women put at risk by the continued pursuit of bigotry are trans women.

That's what they want. And when they've got you to accept that persecution, they'll come for abortion, & equal marriage, & contraception, & divorce...

We cannot go the way of the UK or the US with this nonsense

Email your TDs, don't engage with the fash, be kinder to immigrants (and reminder that immigrants owe you NOTHING, no good deeds or acts, no politeness/manners. No matter their 'pleasantness' or indifference, immigrants are human beings).

Right wing dickheads want you afraid of foreign criminals coming in, putting "our women and children" at risk, meanwhile this is what they're doing to women and children
