Okay, I'm testing the waters. Five slots for now, but commissions are here! I went with kofi, because they take a lot of the headaches out of organising it. I have a fairly large range of things on offer, so hopefully something catches your eye! ko-fi.com/evegoldenwoo...

An anime screenshot style illustration, which is one of the commissions on offer

Three fullbody character drawings, another example of something on offer.

A screenshot of the kofi page, showing two of the available listings, anime style screenshot illustrations, and black and white illustrations.

Another two listings from the kofi page, this time showing cover art listings.

If you only read one story today, make it @nicolecarpenter.bsky.social's breakdown of the Saudi-backed EA buyout, which includes thoughts from multiple business analysts and experts who explain what the $55B deal could mean for EA workers, its video games, and the wider industry.

Essential reading.

Back to the actual and current Presidential candidates -with all the Jim Gavin shenanigans of the last 24 hours it may have not grabbed people’s attention that Heather Humphreys just threw trans people under the bus in response to a Grift dot ie reporters question!So there’s that! #aras25 #speirgorm

There's three candidates for president (a largely ceremonial but important position), one of them is Jim gavin. He's been a total flop, trailing in the polls, and then it came out that he had treated a tenant badly so he tried to withdraw from the race. But he apparently legally can't.

Eve @evegoldenwoods.bsky.social · 3d

Wait this is so funny

Simon McGarr @tupped.bsky.social · 3d

Brilliantly, @iamreddave.bsky.social points out that the law doesn’t allow for withdrawal of a presidential candidate after nominations have closed.

Section 30(1), Presidential Elections Act, 1993

www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/1993/act...

al 30.-(1) A person in respect of whom a nomination paper has been delivered to the
ire. presidential returning officer pursuant to section 14 may withdraw his candidature at any time before the completion of the ruling on nominations but not thereafter.

For National Poetry Day, a personal favourite of mine and one I think about more and more in these troubled times.

The Second Coming
By W.B. Yeats

Guess who just got back today?
Them wild-eyed boys that'd been away
Haven't changed, hadn't much to say
But man, I still think them cats are crazy
They were askin' if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told them you were livin' downtown
Drivin' all the old men crazy

[Chorus]
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
(I said) The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
