Ammama, maternal grandmother. She was a self-made woman. Probably misunderstood. She did her best. She was strict with her daughters. She loved my tattoos. She was loving to her grandchildren- she did her best by us too. She, like many women in her time- ran the household like a lean machine.

"The authoritarians among us are already adept at manipulating our mortality fears for their own benefit. We can accept their preferred power trajectory, or we can recognize the influence of mortality fears & create alternatives." theconversation.com/is-donald-tr...

OMG my comrade + my dentist !

The Induction Day for post-graduate researchers @ MTU was a full day. I am thrilled to know about the support, services & amenities available on campus. Education is a Basic Human Right. Joining a research community is my privilege. I am humbled & grateful to have experts rooting for all of us.

Memories of producing a wholesome radio documentary: Living Heritage. Full of personal reflections about one's connection with nature from childhood to present day. In a busy life, how do we be with nature. Tune in here: gooddaycork.com/latest-news/...

Hope we can enjoy meaningful authentic connections here devoid of capitalism. Here's an image of a moment at People's Cafe in the Cork City Library #Ireland The hope for the People's Cafe was to hold space for discussions that increase bias awareness and how to be soft and open with each other.
