@murchadhfinn #FeloniousTrump creating mayhem everywhere does not own the entire world. His threats in the Middle East, in deference to Netanyahu are criminal, as are his actions regarding Ukraine to Putin & Russia. Add in his demand to own Greenland, the Panama Canal, make Canada a 51st state, and changing the established names of various parts of the world. What should be very concerning for the Irish government, is the complicity of Labour and others in the UK, as they slyly comply with much of Trump [& Musks] demands. That the US administration is now working to remove the power of courts and the legal system in order to do what they want is a #TrumpCoup
Ireland’s representatives must stand strong and united with the EU, and do everything they can to ensure the six counties in Northern Ireland are not brought into this by the British Government. This is not the time for Harris or Martin to long finger reunification and emphasising the importance of the Good Friday Agreement is vital. #Think32 #UI #USPolitics #UKpolitics #Mastodaoine

"Ní mór duit é seo a fheacáil" is the subject line to an Irish-language sextortion mail doing the rounds.

I think the perpetrators may be over-estimating the number of native Irish speakers, the success of Duolingo, the number of people who jerk off in front of webcams, the gullibility of the Irish, or all four...

I can tell you now that Amazon.ie is imminent. My wife and I run a small webshop and we've just had the first contact from an Amazon account manager.

We won't be turning into an Amazon merchant, but it will be interesting to see which businesses do.

…When my daughter was in the first grade, - young mother I met while waiting in the injury clinic recalls - she once came home and said, “Mom, I want to go to Amazon.” I was impressed; she is only six, and they already teach them about the rainforests and biodiversity and stuff.
“Why do you want to go to Amazon?” I asked.
“That’s where all the toys come from!”

We had phone/fibre optic cables hanging across our driveway since the storm the other week.

Initially there was a tree leaning on them and they were dragging on the ground. I was worried about a car running into them so I attached a hivis vest to them for visibility.

The tree was moved and the cables raised a bit, but they were still low across the driveway entrance so I left the hivis as a warning.

Today, some workmen installed new telegraph poles and raised the wires back up to their normal height.

But they didn’t remove the hivis vests. 🙄

The fibre cables are still hanging slightly lower than the phone cables so I dunno if someone else is gonna come and sort that, maybe they can get the hivis down. 🤷🏻‍♂️
