Look at this ancient video of me performing outside old city hall in Toronto! 2010 was almost a decade and a half ago!

This is heartbreaking. The US government will continue to send miltary aid to Israel, but they have cut funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. These are the people who are ensuring food and medical aid are getting to the Palestinian refugees. We are amplifying the tragedy of Israel/Palestine. Peace will not be found under these circumstances, and this undermines peace in other countries as well.

Israel isn’t complying with the International Court of Justice ruling — what happens next?

Looks like #Caturday came early last week. Did you hear that Meta is removing politics from Instagram and Threads?
Now can we make Mastodon more political and viral-friendly? I'm still missing quote-tweets, and live feed reach.

"So what's been great about it is developers, even within this really simple canvas, have had just tremendous creativity. And what's been great for users is it just meets them where they are. So developers now get users, and users get actual delightful, interesting experiences right in their feed."

If I'm reading it right, it sounds like iframes embedded through OEmbed? That's how Mastodon shows YouTube/SoundCloud/Bandcamp players in posts.

I installed it on the Deck about a year ago, and I couldn't configure the controls in a way I could enjoy the game. Maybe I should try again.

big fan of that brand. It’s one of my must-haves at home at all times

Yay! Also highly recommend Russian Earl Grey tea. Yes seems like a cultural contradiction. It has a dash of orange rinds to complement bergamot.

I asked this new ‘AI UI design tool' startup to make me a pro iPhone camera app UI and it literally calls itself Halide in its Settings UI without any prompting from me. uhhh...

@Deb Zaccaro-Rojas Aw, these things happen. I grew up in part in farm country. Ringworm gets into the soil and there's not much you can do about it but medicate and clean. Moki came from a caring breeder--who lived on a farm.



Request: Does anyone have an old Clare GAA top (size L)they're no longer wanting and would be willing to post to Scotland?

I'm after one and went looking at O'Neills and it's £54! 😲 ebay's not looking great either 😬

I have a Wexford top which is apparently "traitorous" as my partner is from An Clár.

We once tried to recitify it but the parcel was delivered to the wrong adress and it was never seen again.

in reply to Rí Rua nan Earraich 🐦‍⬛

they pop up in charity shops from time to time and I'll keep an eye out. My partner's family is also from Clare so I will ask around too.

Does it matter what era, or does it have to be from the Davy Fitz golden years? Or does any of that matter?

think it's just monopoly and good old fashioned GAA greed to be honest. But no hassle — I'll keep an eye out. Will let you know soon, or pop a message here if you find one.

And there's only one banner!
