What an incredible read but it's those footnotes that will keep me awake at night. 😕

I want everyone to know that if we don't stop the rich from destroying this planet, a shimmering life filled treasure, your children will have nothing left.

Nothing is more important. And yes, they will consume it all until it is gone. I don't care how nice they seem.

Amazing how books can fling us down memory lane, it's been 25 whole years since I did my BA in Galway and had the pleasure of getting my books at #CharlieByrnes
Still have the original bookmark and everything! 📚😅

First year selling my art at Christmas without the Other site, where most of my sales came from, as well as losing US orders to new tariffs, so it'll be a tough one - I put huge work into every order, so even if you can't buy, shares help get them in front of eyes. GRMA! www.ciaraioch.com/artprints

November was a good reading month, I finally feel like my attention span is returning!
Space was my main theme but I also read my 1st Agatha Christie too and loved it (apart from the very last lines🥴). December will be more of a mixed bag I think...

Ready to march for Palestine? For International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian people, let's make this the biggest demonstration yet! There is no ceasefire. Our government must sanction apartheid Israel to make it end its genocidal crimes in Gaza and the West Bank. All out! #FreePalestine

They call it Black Friday —
a day for rushing, grabbing, and taking.

We love the quiet — the table, the laughter, the pieces made by hand for years of memory, not minutes of chaos.

Our pieces are shaped by hands, not hysteria.

We choose warmth over waste.

🖤🇮🇪✨

Lemass wasn’t the absolute worst (as FF Taoisigh go) but he did introduce the 1935 Conditions of Employment Act which restricted women’s access to the workplace. His biographer says he was sexist & regarded women’s employment as ‘contrary to the Irish way of life’, so that’s a no from me. #speirgorm

I really really love stuff like this, it has just scratched some part of my brain in such a satisfying way.
I feel I need to watch The Big Snooze now! 👏🏻🐰
I just learned the Bugs Bunny No meme doesn't even come from him saying no. It's a frame rotated 90 degrees from him taking a drink from a bottle. I needed to share this.

Public health warning! ⚠️ Have a look at your hot water bottles and make sure they are not getting too worn.
Mine split on me this evening and I now have a scaldy big burny blister on my leg. Not fun but could have been a lot worse. 🫣😬
