Okay, this is one for any writers or illustrators in Ireland doing children's events. In case you haven't already heard, it looks like Garda Vetting rules are changing, so that you will have to appear in person to show your ID documents for any organization that looks for vetting. 1/5

Saying this with as much love as possible, but please stop using AI generated graphics for activism. Plenty of artists willingly donate their time and work designing for activists, and always have. It's not necessary to step on an increasingly struggling group in order to promote worthy causes.

I look forward to seeing your folded arms photo above future opinion pieces on how tenants should just quit coffee.

Just saw Superman and itโ€™s a romp.
Also thereโ€™s more thinly veiled commentary on the state of the world today than Iโ€™d expect from a super hero movie.

Young refuseniks burn their IOF draft papers in the middle of Tel Aviv

They refuse to serve in the Israeli Occupation Forces, and are willing to go to military jail for their position. The new generation of refuseniks is supported by the older, many of them spent months in jail already

Gull Dukat.
Another one of those mental images I had to exorcise by drawing it.

Just an example of the sick "comedy" we fathers have to tolerate on Father's Day. If you see a father tomorrow, be sure to put an arm around him and tell him his farts aren't smelly. Even if they are, that's nothing to do with being a father, probably an intestinal thing.

It's 30ยฐ in London and I hate this heat and I hate everyone who likes it. But dear God the amount of washing I'm getting out. Four loads already, lads. Washed and dried. The last one *bone dry* after 20mins on the line. My ancestors crying joyful tears in heaven. This must be what heroin feels like.

The Leaving Cert, for my non-irish followers, is an ancient, annual ritual where our nation sacrifices its 18 year olds on the altar of carpal tunnel and a lifetime of anxiety dreams to ensure two weeks of sunshine.
It is our shameful pact with the Old Ones.
