Lacking both accountability and humanity.

Zero accountability—or humanity.

These homes were boarded up when @judesherry.bsky.social & I moved to Cork City from Amsterdam in 2018
7 years later they are still boarded up
In Amsterdam they have a policy that all homes can only be vacant for 1 year before compulsory rental
Its time for that policy here

Intensive farming should be banned. It's bad for the animals & for the environment.

How hard is it actually to learn Finnish, move to Finland and then be part of one of the few countries in the world which basically seems to work?
“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me
In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

The idea that JD Vance—who has never been to Ukaine and chalks up his knowledge to shit he read on the internet—believes he knows more about the situation in Ukraine than the man who has led it for the past 5.5 years is a perfect encapsulation of the havoc this administration is wreaking worldwide
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

Feels strange online today. Might be just how mad and horrible so much of the world is now. Anyway, here's a #painting. "Bovine" came out of a time I stayed in a cottage and at the front I would get stared at by this beautiful beast and his long-haired friends. Placid times. #SensoryArt #Februarty

Mine hasn’t arrived yet either! But fear not; you don’t NEED it to vote. You can still just show up at your polling station with photo ID and proof of address and you should be accommodated.

If you don’t know where your polling station is: it’ll be listed on your records on checktheregister.ie.
When are poling cards supposed to arrive? I switched my address 2 days before the deadline and was worried I’d left it too late as I haven’t received anything yet. But my family and co-workers haven’t received theirs yet either so I’m hopeful it’s all ok but I thought I’d have received it by now.
