4-panel vertical comic. (1) 100 Years Ago [two people standing next to bicycle with small car nearby] PERSON 1: It’s too dangerous riding a bike with these cars around. I should get a car, too. (2) 50 Years Ago [two people between smaller car and bigger car] PERSON 2 with short hair: Small cars are less safe in collisions with larger vehicles, so I should get a bigger one. (3) Today [two people between big car and even bigger car] PERSON 1: Everyone has huge SUVs now. If I don’t get the biggest one, I’m putting my family at risk.

Absolutely shameful of Microsoft

The End of Windows 10 Support Is an E-Waste Disaster in the Making In an example of egregious planned obsolescence, as many as 400 million computers will soon hit the waste stream.

Nobody needs Windows 11. I work on an 8-year-old laptop running MX Linux and it's amazing. We can't go down this ridiculous global e-waste path every couple of years

We Need a Proper Transport App for Dublin. It’s 2025, Not 1998. A basic integrated transport app isn’t innovation. It’s the bare minimum.

Dublin desperately needs one fully integrated transport app, not a patchwork of half measures.

MSF strongly condemns the killing of Omar Hayek by Israeli forces this morning in #Gaza. Our thoughts are with his family and colleagues.

Omar is our fourteenth colleague to be killed in Gaza since the war started. We call yet again for an end to the genocide.

“This morning an attack by Israeli forces killed our colleague Omar Hayek.

Omar, 42, is our fourteenth colleague killed in Gaza since October 7, 2023.

Omar died on his way to work at the hospital.”

😂😂

Israel is and has been committing genocide. It's not that hard to write, RTE. See, I did it!

Is 12 matches even enough... barbaric behaviour

Why can't rte just start referring to it for what it is

Naoise Dolan: I've protested Israel's actions every way I can. Now, I'm joining the flotilla sailing for Gaza Author Naoise Dolan explains why she’s joining a flotilla mission to Gaza – and why it’s long past time for Western leaders to take action.

What about Israel Ms Kallas

What this area needs is a large body of water #Lido

The *genocide* in Gaza

That's a key part of the conversation starting them. They are subscription model not a treatment course! No point starting unless you want to stay on for life more or less

@news.rte.ie shouldn't be platforming such a man with airtime. What a disgraceful man. Just heard Mr Turner speaking there. Absolutely deluded and shameful denial of an active genocide.

Washington Post now exists to further the goals of a single billionaire. The world needs independent journalism.

Good. We are burning the planet currently so anything in the other direction is a +

Send me a DM if you'd like me to put you in touch with the store manager 👍🏻

Maybe reach out to Patagonia store?

We need a government construction agency to build housing and a whopper dereliction tax. Like 10% equity of the property is liened on it for every year of dereliction.

Every inch of Israel's war (genocide) has been documented.

There is no room for doubt - and no room for impunity.

Hill farmers are dumping wool because there is 'no money' for it - cllr Fianna Fáil Cllr. Justin Warnock has called for the government to "come up with a plan" for the use of wool.

At a time of climate and nature collapse, farmers are paid subsidies to maintain all of Ireland's uplands as ecological deadzones. For what?

For the production of wool that's then dumped.

You could NOT make it up.

James Cameron didn't know of Zhanjiajie when Avatar was made. The association is a lie promoted by the park and China... #Cunningham'sLaw

"Legally, morally, that has consequences. You have to do everything in your power to stop it"

🚨Pass the Occupied Territories Bill (with goods and services)
🚨Stop the Central Bank authorising Israeli war bonds
🚨US Military out of Shannon
🚨Stop weapons overflights for genocide

Is it time to ban SUVs? ‘Their presence on our roads is undermining hard-won road safety gains and making our streets more dangerous’

If we are serious about road safety, if we are serious about climate action and a liveable future, then we should ban SUVs.

My letter in today's @irishtimes.com.

We don't need more airports in Ireland. 🌍🔥
