Love ❤️ this section of the Blackrock greenway & the sweep down to the Marina. Frosty morning & a bunch of 🧍‍♀️🧍🧍‍♂️ on 🚲 going to work & school safely away from 🚗🚙. Getting a bit of fresh air & exercise. It's about 0°C/32°F at the time. We get almost everywhere within 15 mins because of this route.

It suits many factions to claim they are being excluded when in fact they can’t organise a piss up in a brewery but get loads of opportunity to misinform and plant notions which go unchallenged - meanwhile Taoiseach/Tanaiste say ‘look over there’ at a fictitious problem rather than their leadership

It’s not - but those who publicise it as if is is and who platform those who claim it is are revealing themselves.

The story of this election is that Catherine Connolly is the most popular Presidential candidate in the history of the State.

Imagine if an FF or FG had achieved that.

Catherine Connolly amassing the largest number of votes of any politician ever in the history of the state is of course a smaller story than the minority who spoiled their votes

Connolly's younger volunteers and organisers are fantastic and deserve huge credit.

Smart, optimistic, strategic, disciplined, tapped into culture, positive message-bearers, excellent communicators.

It's so great to see people putting their energy into a movement that expresses hope. 🇮🇪

RTE desperately trying to make the main story about people not on the ballot, spoiled votes & FFG infighting. Fuck off. Catherine Connolly won despite all of the rotten tactics from FFG.

200+ bike and scooter corrals will be installed across Seattle to make it clearer and easier to find a place to park shared bikes and scooters.

These, created by local artist Roy (Eroyn) Franklin, were installed in partnership with Seattle Symphony, Benaroya Hall, and the Office of Arts & Culture.

There were so few people around the Mahon polling station this morning I thought I was at the wrong place. 😵‍💫 Result could be closer than thought if turnout is very low.

🔺️ ⚠️ Heads up for Cork Nth Central voters who normally vote at the Hall at Trinity Church, end of Summerhill: works there mean your polling station has moved to City Hall.

That is stated on your polling card, but the change is not well flagged.

Reposts appreciated. People may miss out. #aras25

Polling card for an area in Cork Northcentral whose voters have to attend City Hall and not their normal polling station.

If nobody else has done it yet it is possible to export all the data from each Telraam & I can probably pull it together into a dashboard for the Telraam-only data (i.e. no TFI bikeshare data). Here is the Seattle one: app.powerbigov.us/view?r=eyJrI...

COVID Vaccine May Hold Clues To A Universal Cancer Shot

It began as an observation buried in hospital records: cancer patients who got a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine near the start of their immunotherapy lived longer. Much longer. What sounded like coincidence now looks like a breakthrough that could rewrite how medicine mobilizes the immune system against cancer. Researchers from the University of Florida and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center analyzed records from more than 1,000 patients with advanced lung or skin cancer.

🛴 Shared scooters and bikes were a big hit in Seattle this year: more than average 46,000 daily rides during the period of May thru October. The Lime seated scooter, a new vehicle type, outpaced shared e-bikes for second place after standing scooters

A key benefit of wide bike infrastructure is that it's cheaper and more efficient to maintain.

When a bike lane is wide enough for standard city sweepers and plows, you don't need a separate, specialized fleet.

Good design is fiscally responsible.
