The North Inner City is regularly left begging for basic amenities like bins, while millions is squandered into already polished areas. Dublin divided: ‘Grafton and Dawson Streets don't need regeneration, they're already gleaming' jrnl.ie/6692063

"In the face of great intimidation and power [Nikita Hand] stood up for herself, for what’s right and what’s true. These are Irish qualities to be truly proud of. In marking our national day...the president of the United States identified someone who has none of these qualities."

This might be the most courageous and inspiring story of 2024. Emma Fogarty, Colin Farrell, and the power of friendship/resilience/love. A column on a woman who breathes bravery. And a sound Hollywood icon. A Dublin City Marathon story highlighting the power of the human spirit

"It is time to collectively acknowledge the fact that we have hollowed out Ireland’s capital city to make way for tourist business and that it is no longer a place that caters to the people who live in the city."

Just checked and Elon has indeed also opted people in the EU into giving #GROK full access to their twitter content to train the AI - you can't tun this off on mobile but need to go into your settings on a desktop as shown below Privacy & Safety -> Grok. This has tp a giant fine?

1. I'm legit shocked by the design of @Meta's new notification informing us they want to use the content we post to train their AI models. It's intentionally designed to be highly awkward in order to minimise the number of users who will object to it. Let me break it down.

I refuse to believe Marchioness of Cholmondeley is a legitimate title, and not just what would happen if I drank 5 glasses of wine and then tried to say Matthew Mcconaughey. #KateMiddleton #RoyalFamily #rosehanbury
