Brilliant to see @npwsireland.bsky.social staff in Killarney feel they're now making serious progress re invasive rhododendron and sika deer in the park. But what about the feral goats?? The place is swarming with them, one of the world's *worst* invasive species. www.irishtimes.com/environment/...

Yesterday, I returned from 3 weeks in Costa Rica, where I went to find out what can be learned from their spectacular success rewilding a country. I cannot overstate how awe-inspiring the trip was: nature loss CAN be reversed on a huge scale, benefiting *everyone*.

In the spirit of Draw With Don, have decided to launch a series of How To Draw Nice Irish Celebrities
Sketch titled "Draw with Ciaraíoch: Hozier" 

Step 1: Draw an oval (pointing to a drawing of an oval)

Step 2: SHIT. Wrong. Rub it out. Curse a LOT. (Drawing of a rubbed-out oval)

Step 3. Question the life choices that brought you to this point. Maybe I should bave chosen a more stable career. Sure, I'd be unhappy, but maybe a job is just a job, and being mediocre at something I don't care about is-

Step 4. Hozier! (Little drawing of Hozier)

people posting the antisemitism map of Europe over and over and over and over again:

"I know this, and I love you"

I have to take an annual fire safety training for work, and I am reminded that I asked some of the folks who manage these things how they evacuate the NICU and apparently they have vests you can load up with babies

Yeah, and we didn't prosecute the ring leader either. As a matter of fact, we just put him in the White House. Nothing makes sense anymore.

I'd happily pay higher Local Property Tax if the money offset rates and other costs for enterprises of cultural value like bookshops, cinemas, heritage (non-franchise) cafes and youth clubs. I think many homeowners would, but politicians seem to think we want tiny tax cuts.

Funny comic strip. Two people, one says “how’d you know that?”. The other replies, “a little birdie told me”. First person says to a small bird “what the hell man”. Illustration drawn in simplistic cartoon line art style. By Amii Illustrates.

No joke: The ill-considered, lightning fast adoption of these faulty technologies across different sectors of society is nothing less than a mass cult conversion. It's the Kool Aid at scale, and we're treating it like a nice calming cup of green tea

It's also shit for the voters of Kildare South, who have been under represented for the last 10 years. Should be term limits for the Ceann Comhairle.

And I'm sorry, but with so many now claiming the Greens "punched above their weight in government", it has to be said: One Green minister drafted a forestry plan that was mostly about ramping up sitka, while another Green minister insisted sheep graze a national park.

The idea that FFG need to give concessions to Labour or the Soc Dems is a nothing but pie in the sky wishcasting. The last time the Greens negotiated hard they got a PfG that was full of vague commitments around social justice commitments that ultimately meant their demise.

I would politely suggest that officialdom in Irish Education (particularly the support services!) migrate their material and updates from X to here. It is so unfair that teachers are forced to engage with that platform in an effort to be informed. #edchatie

Exit poll showing that Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil’s transfers to each other have fully consolidated. No longer any argument to be made that there is a meaningful difference between the two.

Here is a test for the civility on BlueSky: A movie cannot be a Christmas movie unless Christmas plays a central mechanism in the transition of the narrative from A to B. So Die Hard is clearly NOT a Christmas movie because Christmas changes nothing in the story.
