Random moment with Raven. 4am. Predawn walk. No-one except us.

If Trump had been president in 1861 instead of lame loser sleepy Abe Lincoln, then the US civil war would never have happened. Obviously, stable genius Trump would have stopped the war on the 1st day.

Descendants of violent immigrants complaining about peaceful immigrants. The irony is off the scale.

Anyone in Dublin (or surroundings) looking to purchase a 2018 model electric Bullitt? I bought it new as a back-up for when my other Bullitt is being repaired/serviced. Unfortunately I no longer have space for two Bullitts.

Not the point of the video, but by Odin, cars are so goddamn space inefficient. If it was 150 bikes, they'd all be captured in the last second of the video.

Vance and Musk will be on the socials complaining that woke culture has broken the UK, or somesuch sh1t.

Don't poke the bear, you say. The bear has rabies and is attacking and killing children in schools, playgrounds & their homes. Don't poke the bear, you say? I say the bear is violently insane and needs to be put down.

Random moment in Dublin. Male & female Early Bumblebees (Bombus pratorum) mating on a yellowrattle.

Apparently there's an upcoming movie directed by David Leitch titled 'Jason Statham stole my bike'. I don't care how well he slides around in oil, half-naked, fighting bad guys, Mr Statham had better never try to steal my bike. 😡

Spider Noir is the best thing to happen to the Spiderman franchise since 2004's Spiderman 2. Nick Cage & Brendan Gleeson are great fun.

I've said this for years: If you live in a 'rural' area & moan that U don't have proper services like doctors, utilities, post-office sorting centers, etc then the most important change U can push for is to eliminate 1-off housing, Bcoz it's the biggest drain on resource distibution, bar none.

Random moment in Dublin. In case anyone is interested in what they look like, here's a flower from a Medlar tree. I spotted this one today in a garden. From what I could see, it was the only flower on the whole tree.

Random moment with Raven. Overnight camp and predawn light.

Random moment with Raven. A day in the hills.

The 3 steps of a logical argument, as seen through the eyes of car-brain. 1): Premise: Not everyone can cycle. 3): Conclusion: Therefore we need to ban cycling.

Random moment with Raven. Sunny morning in May.

Random moment with Raven. Bike camping & the early morning after.

Random moment with Raven. The face he pulls if I ever suggest we get a cat.

How many more accounts do I need to block B4 the goddamn algorithm gets the message that I DO NOT want to see weirdo bros posting half-naked photos of themself at the gym!

Random moment in Dublin. Dramatic clouds at sunset.

When food shortages/price hikes start to bite here (yes, likely by Autumn) I hope that the farming lobby will finally be exposed for the utter fuking bullshit that they spout about feeding everyone. The majority of stuff that Irish farmers produce, is produced for export. @thinkorswim.bsky.social

Random moment with Raven. May morning on the way to work.

This is a long-shot but I'm desperate. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this noise. Residential area D5. I can't locate the source. It's coming from another house somewhere in the area. All day & all night. Varies in intensity. Wakes me up at night. Utterly maddening. 😡

A guy cycles around with different hats on his head and comes to conclusions about safety. If I cycle around if different plant-pots on my head, maybe I can come to similar conclusions about the benefits of plant-pots with regards to safety.

Random moment with Raven. Evening stroll.

Random moment with Raven. Sunny evening below the twin towers.

Random moment with Raven. Sunset.

There's something seriously wrong with the educational system in the UK, specifically England. WTF are they doing. Farage is an utter slimeball. He doesn't give a fuk about anyone but himself. You'll be objectively much worse with him in charge. Ask Germans from the 1930s/1940s for an opinion.

Random moment in Dublin. A nice wall.

May the twilight of the 4th be with you. The light today in that brief period after sunset was mesmerizing. Photos can't capture the experience properly.

Random moment with nature. Hawthorn flowers in May.

The poor driver must be distraught. No doubt both the bus and the tram-line came out of no-where. Trams and buses need to start wearing Hi-Viz and paying road-tax otherwise these ACCIDENTS will keep happening.

Random moment in Dublin. Contrail shadow. When a high altitude contrail casts a shadow on lower level clouds.

Random moment in Dublin. May morning sunlight through the trees.

Random moment with nature. Holly flowers in May.

When they saw those views from space, it was the greatest experience of their lives. But looking at their expressions standing in the Oval Office listening to the orange buffon, you could imagine they were thinking: 'Nah, it wasn't worth it'.

Banning peaceful protests is undemocratic. Protests are a valid form of democracy. Jewish people are not responsible for the actions of the Israeli government and peaceful protestors are not responsible for antisemitic attacks.

Random moment with Raven. Sunset on the pier.

Random moment in Dublin. Buff-tail bumblebee snorting pollen from a Welsh Poppy like it's cocaine.

Random moment in Dublin. Dandelions by street-light.

So, following the latest incident with someone trying to shoot Trump, he makes loud calls to build a bunker/ballroom for security reasons. And yet no calls to limit guns??? The US is completely fuked-up.

Holly Blue butterfly. Dublin April 25.

It's a sh1tsh0w out there.

According to some, cycle-lanes have ruined Dublin. They're talking bollocks of course. It was the decades-long policies of promoting private cars as mass transit in urban areas that has resulted in the constant car-jams. It's also why more people don't cycle. It's dangerous & terrifying at times.

Random moment in Dublin. Twilight with a waxing cresent moon and venus.

Female chocolate mining bee, just emerged today from underground nest. Dublin.

When the US war of aggression against Iran eventually ends, I think there's opportunity for Iran to become a powerhouse in satirical Lego comedy.

Food security misinformation/illusion is big in Ireland. We need to rapidly move away from export agriculture. Better for food security AND energy security. It's also a national security issue.

Chatshat: When you intentionally make up a word to misdirect AI crawlers into thinking that it's a real word. The purpose being to highlight how utterly dumb LLMs are.

Hoverfly, resting on a hawthorn leaf. Eupeodes sp (possibly luniger).
