I 'm crushing the Irish Heart Foundation challenge with over 85 km walked in the last week. 16km today. Please consider a donation.
At 65 backing me is backing not just a walker, but someone proving resilience stamina and heart.

No bread, no problem. Mammy taught me well. Freshly baked olfactory heaven carrying me back to childhood. Buttermilk and Greek yoghurt loaf. From “just one thin slice” to nearly devouring it all: exquisite. The alchemy of scent and flavour turns denial into communion.

I’m an avid reader, especially drawn to books that explore how meaning is created, communicated, and assimilated. I’m fascinated by the ways we come to accept disinformation, propaganda, and conspiracy theories—and how we can resist them. www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/...

Are eugenics and phrenology making a comeback? In the USA, it’s starting to look that way.

Names change. Words change. But actions… you shall know them by their fruits. Sanitised, rebranded—but still oppressive.

White House border czar suggests ICE can detain people based on ‘physical appearance’
Tom Homan’s comments about ICE agents being able to detain people based on “their physical appearance” will likely make racial profiling concerns worse.

Love

Love is not sugared kisses or candied dreams,
it's not brewed in mystical love potions.
It's not rainbow colours or kaleidoscope themes.

Internet an information ecosystem Replete with bbb (believable bulshit babble) The internet isn’t inherently broken—humans are. It is a mirror of human cognition, with its brilliance and flaws. The best defense is skepticism + verification, not cynicism or retreat.

Our minds are fertile ground—be mindful of the seeds we plant. The roots from the seeds of hate, xenophobia, racism, misogyny, fear, intolerance…once sown, burrow deeply spreading web-like as mycelium; they are notoriously difficult to uproot.

Are we on the cusp of a Technopoly? Neil Postman warned we’d surrender to tech, and it’s happening. Algorithms shape our thoughts, replacing critical thinking with viral noise.
Join the 1%, resist algorithmic poisoning, and think critically.
