Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.

#EUROVISION.

My Daddy was a massive fan, I followed suit. He was also a huge supporter of Palestine.

When I was just 18, my Daddy (53) caught a brain virus that caused dementia like symptoms.

He sang All kinds of Everything, all day, every day for 4 years.

He would be very proud of #Ireland.

A new study found the Trump administration’s cuts to NIH grants disrupted more than 380 clinical trials, affecting over 74,000 participants.

The cuts disproportionately impacted trials on infectious diseases and minority communities.
Federal cuts upended clinical trials. A new study reveals the toll.
Grants for 383 clinical trials were terminated and the funding disruptions affected more than 74,000 trial participants, according to new research.

As my Inbox fills up with stupid Black Friday emails.

Here's a little reminder of our starter pack, celebrating #IrishDesign.

Lots of lovely things to buy, and you will feel all squishy inside for supporting small Irish business.

Its that time of year again when we will all be overwhelmed with Black Friday offers from multinationals with questionable ethos. Any definitive lists to support local? #Cork #Ireland #beatthetarriffs
We (as a couple) challenge ourselves to get each other a gift from somewhere hyper-local: for us this usually means Douglas Street:
1. The Cork Flower Studio
2. Cafe Moly
3. Nano Nagle
We are spoiled for choice!

Where would you shop go to support Cork?
anyone have a list for supporting local shops/industries for Christmas in Cork? Don't want to give money to Bezos et al

When the most powerful man in the world goes about the place spreading very dangerous nonsense about paracetamol and vaccines, millions of people will sit up and listen.

It's consequence free for him but this is going to kill a lot of kids and make a lot more children very ill indeed.
