Here is something for Tesla Owners in Ireland.
The Irish Times is asking owners how they are feeling now #Musk is such a divisive political figure.

Why am I totally unsurprised that it's the fucking Irish Times doing this? ๐

While she would respond to #SineadOConnor, it is bothersome to me so many (well 95%) of people writing about her (media) do not refer to her by her legal name, #ShuhadaSadaqat. Even #TheIrishTimes mentions it 75% down in the article. She converted to Islam and changed her name five years ago. To me, this is akin to dead naming a trans person. It's sad that we talk about how awesome she is when she died but we can't bother to write her legal name? (I'm also guilty of this. Don't come at me.)
Can anyone confirm the reports of Sinead O'Connor being dead?

Ireland's newspaper of record, The Irish Times got duped by an opinion piece written mostly by generative AI; GPT-4. The piece was removed by the paper and an apology posted by the editor.

Last Monday was #EuropeDay , the anniversary of the 1950 #SchumanDeclaration , a #European agreement and precursor to the #EU . Martyn Turner of #TheIrishTimes drew a cartoon to celebrate the contrasting fortunes of #Ireland and post- #Brexit #Britain , in terms of #wealth and #GDP .

There's many uplifting stories for #EarthDay (#earthday23) in #TheIrishTimes today.
My own is the growing awareness that tree fruits (and nuts) are among the most sustainable foods that people can eat. I often like to think that it wasn't coincidence that the #GardenOfEden was filled with fruits.

In personal business news, we received a "local food hero" award from the #RestaurantsAssociationOfIreland last night, in recognition of the work put into #TipperaryFoodProducersNetwork over the past few years. I'm very grateful to whoever nominated us for this, and of course to the judging panel. #LocalFoodHero sponsored by #TheIrishTimes
