Want the shit in your google drive to load instantly again, instead of taking for-fucking-ever? Open your gdrive (web OR app) Settings > Manage Apps Gemini was checked "use as default" (and i sure the fuck didn't set it that way, this was a silent push) Nuke that, and suddenly, folders that took up to a minute to populate and sort do so in a fraction of a second.

Sum up #Aras25 media coverage in one pic.
The girl and the tuba meme, with me the girl against the wall, her head in the horn of the tuba, the Irish media as the girl holding the tuba, and presidential non-runner Maria Steen as the tuba being blared in my face ad nauseum.

This is a really important read, on the debacle that is metal detecting in the UK, dispelling lots of myths.

Your regular reminder, it is illegal to prospect, without a licence from the state,,for archaeological objects in Ireland using a remote sensing device

An important contribution on metal detecting & archaeology in England and Wales.

(N.B.: Metal detecting is illegal in Ireland, & subject to fines & even imprisonment, under the National Monuments Acts)

The piece where I get to say everything that's bugging me about the world of detecting & archaeology & ask - why are we not more concerned about this?

Mary MaAleese was from the North, had never been elected before - was an academic. As much of an outsider as you can get really.
She got two terms no bother - the system is fine

We already had a referendum to make it easier to get on the ballot! Lowering the age limit for a candidate from 35 to 21! It was rejected! That was only ten years ago! Are we all going crazy?!

Both FG and FF ran candidates backing their move to integrate Ireland into EU defence arrangements.

One or other would win.

They would then claim to have a popular mandate.

The people supported the woman supporting neutrality and the Triple Lock.

Ollie admires the menhir du Reun, aka menhir de Skividan #Treffiagat #Finistère #Brittany #France (2007)

🏺
A lovely sunny October day. Ollie, a white man in a purple jacket and sunglasses, stands beside a very large standing stone, around 6m tall. From this angle (the side) it's wider at the bottom and tapers towards the top. Behind it is a similarly sized pine tree. The ground is sandy and covered in pine needles, with other rocks exposed.
