It's very easy to not use AI image generators. Less than zero effort required. There's no reason to help normalise it at all.

A survey is under way to assess the dilapidation of Dublin's historic North Georgian Core, the Department of Heritage has said. It comes as experts say the level of dereliction and neglect is at its highest in decades.

A few years ago I made a series of mini drawings of interesting Irish women (available as a print here www.ciaraioch.com/artprints/p/...) - this thread is a little information on the women featured, partly because it's useful, but mostly because I'm trying to be sustainable by recycling content.

Great trip to the @nlireland.bsky.social for some research 📖 and catching up with classmates too
In November, some of the MA History of Family students went on a field trip to Dublin. They visited the National Library of Ireland to consult some manuscripts and then they toured 14 Henrietta Street. Pictured are some of those who attended with Dr @leannecalvert.bsky.social the Course Director.
