Remember TweetDeck? Wish Bluesky had its own version? Have I got good news for you!

This is an utterly wonderful film––16 minutes of quiet magic.
King of the Fells: a homage to Joss Naylor, the Lake District shepherd who broke record after record for fell-running, fuelled by Guinness & apples, powered by his seemingly untireable legs & spirit.

I know it's a big ask, but we need help getting CouncilTracker.ie back online to show how Dublin city councillors vote. counciltracker-fdecc5cce045.herokuapp.com/motions
We need to add a system so we can update the line-up of councillors as it changes. github.com/DublinInquir...
