Ireland had the opportunity to be an egalitarian republic where the most vulnerable were always protected, and instead we got a partitioned country built for landlords and the corrupt, veiled behind a thin layer of bowls of shamrock and Aran sweaters so tourists don't notice the rot.

Masked bigoted thugs along with Leon Bradley, Stephen Redmond, Leslie Fagan and Paul Nolan are currently outside the Hampton Hotel in Dublin. Behaving in a very threatening manner. This is not the time for a 'softly softly' approach with these bigots. There are kids in there.

'When Starmer speaks of taking measures to avoid compensating Gerry Adams, a victim of imperial violence, what's at stake isn't just money, but the legitimacy of British rule itself.' Starmer seeks to protect 'the national myth that sustains Britain'. www.ontheditch.com/comment-deny...

Denying Adams compensation protects British national myths
It can’t be accepted because it contradicts a carefully managed image of imperial benevolence.

77 years since the Nakba began, Palestinians continue to resist erasure & displacement. Today, after 15 months of genocide, a million returned to northern Gaza, defying those who tried to erase them. Their unbreakable spirit proves no force can extinguish the right of return. 🇵🇸

The people who’ve spent the last fifteen months committing genocide want to tell us how much they’re solemnly sorry about a genocide that ended eighty years ago You have to be an absolute fool to see this as anything but a PR stunt to bolster Israel’s vicious campaign

The world gathers to say 'never again' as it marks the 80th anniversary of the holocaust. Meanwhile, it is happening again. It is the same who gather to remember, who support Israel in their current genocide. This word is broken.

Was interviewed by Silicon Republic about the use of GenAI for image creation, and its impact on artists. You can read Rebecca Graham's article at the link in their post below 👇
“For most artists, the creative process is the ultimate drive behind the work – the love of drawing or making, the stimulation of learning from others and improving our own skills, of putting our own experience and taste into the things that we make. It’s valuable to us,” Kenny tells SiliconRepublic.com.

“The process of using a model to generate AI images provides the user with none of this insight – the patterns used to generate the images are incomprehensible to the user, and there are no creative techniques to learn from. It removes from the process the very act of creation.”“Our nation’s artistic output in all forms is a massive selling point for this country, something that draws in countless visitors every year and hugely contributes to both the economy and our international reputation.

“We are not a large country, and artists here often struggle to make enough money to survive on – the very least that our State and semi-State bodies can do is use and promote the work of our own artists."

Word of the day is ‘matutolypea’: extreme grumpiness in the morning. From the Latin ‘Matuta’, Roman goddess of the dawn, and the Greek ‘lype’, ‘grief’. Put them together and you get ‘morning grief’.

A horrific image of a someone who seems to have his hands tied behind his back. A big cat (the predator kind, not the overfed pet kind) has jumped up at him and is devouring his face. Blood splashes on the floor.
