Some of the finds from my recent Mushroom walk, the CEP / Porcini / Penny Bun was delicious, as was the truffle. The Fly Agaric (red one) was left alone for obvious reasons!

Every political election is nothing more than a popularity contest. Messaging is fraught with inaccuracies/misinformation. So what to do? We’re all human, so don’t get distracted - trust but verify. Support those with a solid track record, not for people that promise to deliver the ‘Garden of Eden’.

So let’s summarize, as things stand, tRump still won’t say a cross word to Putin & he’ll still send powerful bombs to Israel so that both can continue murdering children.
I hope the Nobel Prize committee don’t check for that kind of stuff when they’re deciding who to give a peace prize to…😬 🍊🤡

I’m sure the Nobel Committee folks are lining up Trump’s peace prizes already. He might be too busy to accept though, being so busy selling bombs to the Israeli genocidal regime & sanctioning anyone trying to argue against ethnic cleansing, etc.
UN-backed body confirms famine in Gaza City
A UN-backed organisation has confirmed famine in Gaza, with more than 500,000 people facing "catastrophic conditions characterised by starvation, destitution and death".

“Elsewhere today, Trump imposed on Brazil 50% tariffs to pressure the country to stop the trial of far-right former president Jair Bolsonaro, who is accused of coup charges. Trump has termed the trial a “witch hunt”.”

Great All Ireland Hurling final, neither Team left anything on that pitch. #Hurling is amazing, the skill, speed, agility & right-to-the-very-end tension make it, for me, the best sport in the world. Well done Tipp; hard luck to Cork. Hurling is better again for that final.

Tomorrow is All-Ireland Hurling Final day. Cork v Tipperary - remarkably it’s the first time they’ve ever met in the final. I support Kilkenny, but you can bet I’ll be watching & enjoying it as a ‘neutral’! Here’s a banging tune to set the mood! 😉 👍🏻

Mescan ‘Red Tripel’ is a Belgian-styled full bodied tripel, brewed in Westport Co. Mayo, on the Irish west coast. At 8% abv, this one is a sip & savour and is certainly one of my favourites. #craftbeer #beersky

If you’re a #hurling fan; and enjoy sporting tension with high pressure; and are neutral in terms of the match outcome, then like me, you are currently enjoying the Senior Hurling Munster Final right now. If you are a Cork or a Limerick fan, I’m guessing you no longer have fingernails……😄

It is astonishing, that a country which goes to such incredible lengths to remind the world (rightfully) of the historic horrors of war, genocide & ethnic cleansing, can so easily repeat many of those same evils on a dependent civilian population. Netanyahu & enablers bring only disgrace to Israel.
Watch this montage of clips from Israel's Channel 14, filled with racist and genocidal bile, shocking stuff, ask yourself why you don't see these clips on US or UK mainstream news, and then read Prem's deep dive for Zeteo into Channel 14:

Matthew Goode, Alexej Manvelov, Shirley Henderson & Team are excellent. Genuinely gripping Scottish drama & just a great show. Well done @netflix.com

The UK-US trade deal dealt with none of the complex issues. One commentator noted that the pact was closer to a protection payment to a mob boss than a trade agreement between countries. A legally binding agreement will take months, even though the scope is narrow. But did anyone expect better? 🤷♂️
Trump’s trade adviser bragged that the administration was primed to strike 90 deals in 90 days. Now nearly halfway to that deadline, only two countries have put pen to paper.
Scott Bessent Squirms When Pressed on Trump’s Missing Trade Deals: ‘Are We Talking About 2026?’
Bessent said that deals are incoming, but he refused to confirm from where—or when they would happen.

I aspire to have Mr Helberg’s ‘what will be, will be’ truly next level outlook! Close encounters of the cargo ship kind. 😄
Huge cargo ship runs aground near man's home in Norway
A man in Norway awoke early to discover a huge container ship had run aground a stone's throw from his fjord-side house - and he had slept through the commotion.

Did desperation drive Starmer to sign this ‘deal’? It makes very little sense other than to perhaps temporarily & partially avoid the clownish tariffs Trump printed on his play-school sandwich board & create further distance from the EU. I’m sure the rest of the world is paying close attention. 🤔
The government says it's firm on maintaining our high food standards.
But this, from the White House, will not reassure British farmers.

On the days when Donald isn’t insisting that everyone must respect him & dress appropriately’, he likes to spend his time pretending to the world that he’s the Pope. The most disrespectful, moronic, unhinged, narcissistic, childish American President, ever.
