Two humanitarians climb to the top of the Empire State Building spire holding flag reading "When the power of love beats the love of power the world knows peace"🇺🇸

I love them.

At least they're consistent, this fellah didn't care about housing either.

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

A story about Plastic #WorldBollardAssociation members and lazy active travel design. Can anyone see what the problem might be here? maps.app.goo.gl/CWFQ3eNEstTi...

Updating to OPNsense 26.1.9 broke everything.... DHCP failure, CADDY broke, Cloudflared not working and worst of all and hardest to find... Crowdsec blocked my own server!! What a day

These evening dips may just catch me at the right high tide moment

First time swim for me at Seapoint this evening... Lovely full tide and approaching sunset.

So joyful to see kids as young as six safely cycling the streets of Dun Laoghaire! www.dublincycling.com/cycling/bike...

A #painting for a brief distraction. "Dublin, Purple and Orange" I painted because Dublin is home, and what can one say about one's home? I can actually talk a lot, so could wax purple about it all day, but in this instance I decided to simply give you my Dublin - painted in purple. #art #SpeirGhorm

As I’ve now received my copy of Ringo’s new album along with @damienmaguire.bsky.social and @pavementoyster.bsky.social shall we have a listening party? @beatlespod.bsky.social @stevenc63.bsky.social @beatlesbookspod.bsky.social @jeremyblackmore.bsky.social @mightylyng.bsky.social

What's the Irish for #FlagShagger??

Hurling - The Game youtu.be/xW_4zMQr9v4?...

Commuting by bicycle in Belgium pays off as employees earn compensation for every km they ride. 1 in 6 employees commute by bike and get a bicycle allowance of €0.28/km. People cycling to work in 2024 earned an average of around €460 net per year (some as high as €810), up 20% over the past year.

REMINDER: Eurovision starts tonight, and Israel is still in. Don't play along. Boycott it. Culture should never be used to whitewash genocide, settler-colonialism and aparthied. #esc #eurovision #boycotteurovision #esc2026

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

Our so-called road ‘safety’ agencies fall full-square into this category. @darraghobrientd.bsky.social

1/ Speaking at #dcuclimateconference President Catherine Connolly notes it is 7 years since Ireland declared a climate emergency but "unfortunately we have seen report after report confirming that transformative change is certainly not happening at the scale and speed that is required."

I suppose if I can't get a dip at 8:30AM then PM will do!

Enjoying a sunny walk on the West Pier while the sea scouts from 8ú Calafort Gasóga Mara - 8th Port Sea Scouts, Dún Laoghaire are doing their annual swim test in the harbour. 🌞🌞🌞

A populist distraction: framing cycling investment as 'waste' while shielding massive car parking subsidies from debate. We ignore the truth: our transport system is unsustainable and unhealthy precisely because we refuse to account for the true cost of cars

tangled up with bee

The bike shed/cycle hub holds 40 bikes and is at the cheaper end of provision for 40 car parking spaces. I don't think I've heard anyone complaining about the cost of car park provision for HSE staff?

Hopefully it's not "Déjà Wu-han"

Bloody Cranes Bill and Pink Valerian at the Vico Baths, Dalkey, Co Dublin

We've been lucky lately with the gardeners, they're beautiful singers too!

Making the most of these beautiful mornings

If your daughter is interested in joining the fun, come down to our Open Session next week! Wednesday, May 6th 6:00 PM Kilbogget Park (Main Pitch) maps.app.goo.gl/bjybV5yCg38h... Open to all girls aged 4–13. Games & Pizza Party

What was on TV when you stayed home from school as a kid?

A #JohnLennon documentary is to air at #Cannes2026. How very exciting!

May your gods go with you.

With the restoration works continuing at the Vico Baths, we've been 'on tour' locally and spoiled for choice. This morning at Colliemore Harbour, Dalkey

"I am always fascinated to see young Irish kids bringing their hurl to hurling matches. Where else in the world could this happen; allowing supporters bring in, what is for all intents and purposes a weapon to a high-tension, high drama sports match? It is both crazy and beautiful at the same time".

"A bicycle needs no fuel. It requires no oil refinery, no pipeline, no tanker route through a contested strait. A worker who cycles to the office has removed themselves entirely from the chain of geopolitical dependency that currently makes Ireland vulnerable." www-tinyurl.com/1b95e30a

My second favourite car ad. Favourite being the Saturn Ion commercial that inadvertently became the depiction of inefficient building a transportation system around private motor vehicles actually is. youtu.be/e_oWmY_mkCA?...
