Lovely stuff

That cover though 😍

Sam Altman: In five year’s time AI will be able to go to the toilet for you. Every news channel and website: We must cover this unquestioningly.

Kerryman who is married, living and working legally in the United States for >20 years has been incarcerated by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) since September 2025. Profoundly disturbing report by Karlin Lillington @klillington.bsky.social www.irishtimes.com/world/us/202...

"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.

Bought this aged 9 and never looked back 😁🤗🐷. The reason I'm working in comics today ✏️

An attempt to disconnect our gas connection earlier today👇 SSE Airtricity’s AI chatbot is going a little out of scope 😬

I used to have a lot of contact with UK Nuclear Waste Services as part of my day job, and this was more or less how every meeting began 😅

Ah (Facebook) memories... A comic I produced fifteen years ago (!) for Aidan Courtney's much missed Coimicí Gael series 'Rí-Rá' - An Dr. Cáis, Tréidlia Spáis! This was page one of three I think, not sure I have the rest in digital format anymore.

I'd say at least half of the news lines that I read when I wake up in the morning now read like text-based exposition you find lying around in Fallout games.

Every example of ai being useful begins with "okay imagine you're in a situation, and you are very dumb"

Not sure I agree with much of this - I'm still on Twitter and much of my TL over the last while has been outrage, resistance and calls to action following Venezuela, ICE and so on. Definitely less fun than when we could deplatform unsavoury views and accounts but still an essential source of info.

It’s maybe not the point, but it warms my heart to see the word ‘comics’ being used here rather than ‘graphic novels’

The more I think about it, the more I reckon the 2003 Iraq War began the process that let Trump win. The blatant lies we were told by our governments, the disregard for public opinion and mockery of international law created a rupture that never healed. Trust, consent and cohesion were smashed.🧵 1/3

It's a great word in its own right, leaning towards wonderful onomatopoeia when referring to food. It's perfection in this context. Keep calling out the slop for what it is. Slop: "digital content of low quality that is produced usually in quantity by means of artificial intelligence"

When 97% is 'no clear consensus', and 52% is 'the will of the people', it's time to face facts that Governments do what Governments want to do regardless of what their people actually want.

Hmm I wonder how much attention they’ll pay to this.

Tradition (since I was 14 or thereabouts) dictates that this pair of idiots are the first thing I draw in any new notebook :)

What if Russia came and placed a Stephen Collins article in front of me and told me to read it?

Ireland should be doing more for Palestine, boycotting the genocidal state of Israel on every level: trade, sporting, and cultural links. But RTE's stand on the Eurovision is still cause to be proud. share.google/O7eDraWZmvyf...

Ireland’s influence in non-proliferation far outweighs our size and it’s because of our neutrality. It’s maybe the most important thing we do on the world stage and our media basically never talks about it. So of course he wants us to step back, it makes it easier to argue against neutrality

Fresh meat was as precious as gold bullion back in the 70s. According, that is, to Letraset's dizzyingly exciting THE SWEENEY Super Action Transfers, which allowed kids to create violent scenes based on the classic post-watershed cop show. This meat blag is *carnage*, guv!

Hypothetically, things might be this bad some day, but as a parent of two school age children I refuse to believe it's this bad now, or at least that it's a widespread Weltanschauung :(

Wonderfully wet and wild. Make up all the bug hotels and bird boxes you want, but without way more healthy wild natural habitats like this, nature will continue to crash. Rewilding is how we make that happen.

The billionaires can buy the newspapers and buy social media and buy attack ads, but they can't buy their way out of how much we fucking hate all of them.

So much of the centrist approach to politics has devolved into "How do we trick people into supporting us like the right has done?" where talking sincerely about policies that might help ordinary people's lives is for naïve schmucks who don't understand the glorious theatre of it all

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

I write full time largely because of one thread about getting high with the Irish president. As cringe as it is to admit, my entire life has been massively enhanced by Twitter and ketamine over precisely the same time that those two things have proven less beneficial for Elon Musk.
