@ronandusty.bsky.social Coming soon to Limerick!

My painting COASTAL EXPLORERS

There was a little Middle Eastern restaurant near Silver Lake in LA. About 6 tables on the kerb and a short menu: Hummus Bling, Grilled Beets, Charred Ribeye, some other small plates, great bread. No dessert, no booze, just great food. Reasonably priced. It closed during Covid.

Nice little dig there www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/o...

Oh God Emer Higgins. My eyes have rolled so far they might have to be surgically fixed 🙄 #Drivetime

italians are about to invent a form of corruption so lucrative it will destroy the global economy

One day, governments will realise that they let universities close the only departments that had the skills and knowledge to understand the subsurface, hazards, climate change, and where to find Earth's resources. And they no longer have the workforce for the sustainable future they promised.

Absolutely appalling

Yessssss

I’m nervous #IrlFra

As a lifelong Prince fan - saw him live a number of times, read a few books about him, have most of his albums, I’m very sad that Ezra Edelman’s 9 hour documentary about Prince is being vaulted, never to be released 😢

Huh?

I’m amazed that No Other Land actually won an Oscar and its brilliant makers spoke about the injustice of Palestine before a global audience. No US distributor took it - even before Trump’s election, but it is currently free to view in Ireland and the UK here: www.channel4.com/programmes/n...

Delighted for No Other Land #Oscars

Reminder: we are being trained not to care about other people. It underlines the attacks on migrants, on DEI, on trans youth, on so-called "wokeness." Sure there are legitimate critiques but this is not about critiques. It's about supercharging capitalism's culture of uncare.
