Why not improve *your* frames by putting my pictures in the middle of them?

There are still some places on my book illustration course, starting at @irishwriterscentre.bsky.social in Dublin next week! Join us to learn about visual storytelling! It's more about communication than creating pretty pictures, so it's suitable for beginners with basic drawing skills. #SpeirGorm
People casually using genAI instead of their own creativity or capacity for thought genuinely feels like a huge values difference now, on a very fundamental level. We do not hold the same things to be important or worthwhile.
The Greens came under a lot of fire for the compromises they made in government, and got crucified in the election for it, but they did stick to their goal of driving Ireland’s action on climate. Now we’re finding out just how much FF/FG don’t give a shit about what’s happening. #SpeirGorm
Alan Dunne@aldunne.eurosky.social · 3d ago‘we'll do what the EU forces us to do’ is pretty much the strategy now that government no longer has a junior coalition partner to act as a mudguard. incidentally any party that would take on that role in the future is utterly insane
The Orange Order have applied for a parade in Portadown ONCE A WEEK for the last 28 years. [via Reddit] #speirgorm #garvaghyroad paradescommissionni.flexigrant.com/downloadfile...

This guy's not wrong.
According to paragraph 9 of the Parades Commission's determination:
Portadown District LOL No. 1 have complied with each and every determination issued by the
Commission since [1998], of which there are over 1.300.
That's over 46 determinations from the Commission per year over the 28 years, almost 1 per week.
For 28 years. | guess the brethren of Portadown LOL No. 1 take a couple of weeks off every year for
Christmas, summer holiday in Benidorm, etc. Then they get right back to harassing the Parades
Commission. And it finally paid off.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:har4i535fc7jres2p3oqsyay/bafkreicsmp7qjizzty56bp6li7bangs7enigciubpjsjxc64znpqgl2w2e)

Yesterday I demanded answers from the Minister about the Irish Government position on shocking proposals to give AI companies access to our personal data which are being negotiated right now on Ireland's watch. The public across EU want rights protected & more regulation of AI and big tech not less!

If reports are true that Irish players are being threatened that they'll never play for US owned clubs in the UK if they pull out of the Israel game, then that's a great argument for getting US money out of European football.

Walking in the wet woodland of Killaun in 2020, and accidentally kicking over a well rotted branch, and I noticed this tiny little fungi. When I looked at it through the macro lens I was blown away by its beauty. This is a Mycena species, the Dewdrop Bonnet @peatlandecr.bsky.social

Melissa Terras@melissaterras.bsky.social · 2w agoA decade or more ago I stopped engaging with entertainment (books, tv, film, even music) where the central premise is a woman gets killed or tortured. It cuts down stuff to a manageable choice and has done wonders for my feelings of wellbeing and trust. Because, fuck that for funsies.
