Awful - a kind of environmental sublime - few insects, minimal plants, the occasional sparrow or gull. The island is an exploded volcano so a lot of it is inhospitable to plant life, but it’s all just a backdrop for selfies and instagram. Amazing archaeological remains though

In good news the archaeological museum in Fira reopened with a stunning exhibition focussed on women in the Cyclades. Well worth the €10 entrance fee #santorini

Just back - maybe other islands don’t want to go this route?

Yes the cruise ships thing is incredible- once they’re gone it’s quiet enough but the whole thing is nuts www.santorini.net/information/... Btw I didn’t come expecting anything “authentic” but when people are syncing their outfits for the ultimate ig post you have to wonder…

Yes absolutely. But two teenagers and a direct flight…

A profession in the future might well be a group of people who do not rely on AI to make decisions and write documents

The person heading to the ladies looks over burdened by decision making.

She’s scrummy!

Yes; though of course all of our disciplines started as primarily oral. I need to think more about all this-

It came from a little twig, survived building work and all sorts! I love it
comment in response to post
Yes I know!
comment in response to post
But then I would say that wouldn’t I? Worth remembering too that access to AI is far from universal 3/3
