Been saying this for a long while. #Ireland needs to stop joking around about our #biodiversity crisis, and plant actual forests. Not crops.

If only we’d had more plucky moral fast-acting individuals like this in government in recent years the Occupied Territories Bill would definitely have passed by now. #mastodaoine
Women in the Wind.

Watercolour on paper
Boa Viagem beach in Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil. gusts of wind sweep the sand and palm trees, leaving hair and clothes in disarray. Done from life, holding the paper tightly.

@fesshole any guess as to the the shop?
A journey I just made. My destination is a literal stone’s throw but heaven forbid we build in pedestrian or cycling permeability. #mastodaoine
Shore Leave , by James McCormack.

Drawing - Ink On Paper
Shore Leave is an ink drawing, showing three sailors out on the town on a Saturday night, while their ship is in port. A night of fun, mutual support, a little drunkenness, and making sure everyone gets back to ship. No tar left behind!

I watched #Thunderbolts* this week, and it was great. Right mix of action and comedy, while dealing with some serious themes. A little grittier than most #MCU stuff but still managed to keep the fun.

He did go on to have a rant about all the Pakistanis coming in, and we have a new neighbour who’s black and all “the Islams” who call to your door trying to convert you.
I’m in my house 18 years and have only ever had Mormons or Jehovahs calling but he didn’t seem to hear me when I said that!
He reckons the Ukrainians were fine but not “the others”.
I’m looking forward to him returning back to his homeland.
My Polish neighbour just after telling me he’s moving back to Poland because “there’s too many immigrants coming into the country, taking all the jobs and getting all the houses”.

Also remember, it's not just women of a certain age need HRT (it's basically hormonal contraception under a different flag). It's used to manage heavy periods, hormonal imbalances, younger women who have been thrown into menopause through surgical necessity etc. All women (ALL WOMEN) have the right for this service to be accessible from the onset of puberty right up until it is no longer needed (menopause etc). For it to be truly accessible it needs to be free. #mastodaoine #accessibleHealthCare
Management inflicting a completely unnecessary, short-sighted, ignorant and misogynistic decision on these teams - both sides are comfortable playing wearing shorts and had agreed to do so; but the menz [it’s _always_ men] can’t let women play sport wearing what suits them - skorts, which are weird, unwieldy and uncomfortable must be worn for this match.
I hope both teams play regardless.

Decision to cancel Munster Final shows lack of respect for players - Social Democrats https://www.socialdemocrats.ie/decision-to-cancel-munster-final-shows-lack-of-respect-for-players/
Social Democrats · Decision to cancel Munster Final shows lack of respect for players - Social DemocratsWhat does it say about our goal to progress women’s sports when we stumble at the simplest barriers? Cancelling the Munster Camogie final a mere 16 hours before the match shows an appalling lack of respect for players, according to Social Democrats TD Sinéad Gibney. “It’s an insult to these women. The players, the management […]
With the closing of the public toilets in Stephens Green, I would like to remind people of the phrase #UrinaryLeash in the past this was used to describe how the lack of public toilets women were permitted to use meant they could often not travel far from their homes. I believe this modern leash is to ensure poor people cannot access facilities as the rest of the toilets in the area are in restaurants etc so if you cannot afford to buy something you cannot use the facilities #mastodaoine
Bigoted Bryson, yet again gets the courts to grant him his wishes. Hopefully when this goes to a full hearing in September he will fail; as the Irish Language is a legitimate language in the country of Ireland - all of Ireland.
How much legal time and taxpayers money has this person wasted in such delaying actions over the years? He’s hardly ever out of the courts here; and all his actions over Brexit and the NI Protocol ultimately failed. But he’s never made pay the defence costs for this; he really should be.

I am beyond annoyed with suddenly all bike stands in #Dublin, never mind that it is hard to find one or a free one, are occupied by these bike sharing companies. And they were placed there by them, not active riders. There must be a way to report this. #cycling #MastoDaoine

Rob sent this to me the other day. 
Apparently it’s on the little island bit across the river from the Spanish Arch in #Galway city.

Piano Fire is a watercolour painting, initially created to have colour represent the emotion of piano music. As the flow and colour could be interpreted as flames, it was named Piano Fire.

@martin Must be a day for it: this morning I had a driver blasting the horn at the driver in front, including on approach to red lights, because the latter slowed to safely overtake two people on bikes (myself being one of them).
