So from exit polls 4 out of 5 Germans did not vote for the AFD. Looking forward to blanket coverage of that ......#Germanelections www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

I recently purchased a print of Brigid, goddess/saint of Ireland from @ciaraioch.bsky.social as a gift for a good friend of mine. Not exaggerating when I say the quality of everything was impeccable. The art, packaging, the extra goodies inside, the personalised note, and address on the parcel.

A cost-of-living crisis isn't the easiest time to sell art, but: www.ciaraioch.com is where you can support my work, with each archival-quality print on textured heavy paper being produced here in Ireland, shipping internationally in eco-friendly packaging, with free mini-treats in every order 🎁

Ciara's work is beautiful and she's not kidding about the mini treats! They're beautiful all in their own right! 💜

@irishrainforest.bsky.social some of our local sitka felled in storm revealing their worth at collecting fly tipped rubbish.....

Breaking news indeed @independent.ie , chapeau to editor of this one.👇

Great to see this added by BBC Archive over the weekend. Some very interesting times on this trip... youtu.be/J_Gy-9UHS0Q?... You can read some of the inside stories of that tour to China and Hong Kong in The Third Degree. www.curtis-sport.com/gretna-2008/...

The Irish saint and goddess entwined, Brigid is associated with blacksmiths, spring, and cattle, among others, and stories like blinding herself to repel men's unwanted attention. The three-armed cross here represents both the triple goddess and the trinity. Lá Fhéile Bríde shona daoibh 🌸

Just seen the techbro involvement in the new US administration referred to as "the Nerd Reich" and I'm going to need a minute.

Headline should read, British Emigrants.

30 years ago Spitting Image dared to broadcast the truth about Israel. Now no one dares.

Kerry's Thomas Ashe was born on this day in 1885, and died aged 32 from forced-feeding while on hunger strike to demand POW status from Britain. He was a Republican, socialist, musician, supporter of the Gaelic revival, and a key figure of the 1916 Rising. Prints: www.ciaraioch.com/artprints/p/...
