When the world, or rather certain people's actions in the world, are getting you down go search out some Blue-Footed Boobies who will take you off into a different world....where all is well.

Ancient yew and oak, growing side by side for probably centuries, their roots and crowns locked in a tight embrace. The magic of an Irish rainforest 🌍

Don't worry - we will save you a doggy bag and have put your favourite special drinks to one side for when you feel like them. The fact that today is your birthday is all that matters!

That's okay. We are just letting people who have conversed with Dolly on Bluesky that today is a special birthday day for all sorts of reasons and so invited people to a Bluesky Party just to say hello and have fun.

This will be the future, if you let it be. Already the authoritarians are using AI and social media for their own benefit. What do you think happens next? It won't be hateful or inciting speech in the future, rather independent thought.
