There has been such an unveiling of who we really are, in this awful genocide. The emperor is absolutely naked, and there isn't a sanction in sight (and I suspect there won't be, as long as profits are good).

A few genuine questions... Does any country except Israel have the right to defend itself? Why have you not learned to abhor a holocaust after learning about your own ? How do you feel about what children will learn about you and other genocide enablers in history classes not too long from now?

I see small dead rodents/lizards outside a lot recently. Not eaten, just dead. It never occurred to me (until he told me he'd seen them) that cats kill them for no other reason but to play. I thought no animals but humans did that.

Anyone in Belfast want a very nice drawing table? I’ve a spare (its got on part that needs fixed, but should be an easy fix). Pick up only! (deadline is later today, so if you can repost this I’d appreciate it!)

Save the Children says more than 270 Palestinian children have been killed in the week since Israel resumed its war on Gaza, marking some of “the deadliest days for children since the war began”.

I won't pretend that Amazon's launch of a .ie site is not a threat to many small (and medium sized) businesses here.
It is.
But if I could ask Irish people to do one thing - don't assume that whatever you're buying will always be cheaper there. A monopoly is in no one's interest. #speirgorm

Looking forward to seeing the results of your work! So admire anyone who prints and tapes. Have a few patterns in this format and I just keep pushing them to the end of the list.

It's so heartening to see all the support for Ukraine after last week's circus. It's painful to see so many of the same people say nothing about the ongoing genocide in Palestine. Mar a chéile muid. 🇵🇸 🇺🇦

Well, though I think there's no such thing as cheap fabric (if we don't pay for it financially we're likely paying environmentally) I am team toile for first time makes. I try to use old sheets or tablecloths, and if possible make it wearable!

Great list. I'm also learning garment making, and starting to buy real books again. Can I recommend community food growing groups? The pooling of knowledge and encouragement in these groups is priceless.

It is SO grim. I'm walking more, reading more, have a daily time limit on social media, and I'm learning to sew clothes. Using your hands to make anything is a great stress reliever.
