Back in Cork after my UK trip. In contrast to Heathrow, landing in Cork airport there are lots of #pride signs, and pride bunting up. It's nice to be back, fresh air for the soul as it were. And someone waiting ...
This trip I managed to trigger scanners/security. Was it because I'm trans? Nope.
The Oestrogel I'm carrying? Nope. Because of the suspicious looking bundles of fresh green herbs (holy basil) 🌿? Nope ...
But something in my Kaeng Som curry paste needed a swab down, and serious attention ... 🤣
Anyway, nice to be home

Trump mega-donor’s paper savages his pardon of Las Vegas Republican
Las Vegas Review-Journal, owned by billionaire Miriam Adelson, condemns pardon of ex-lawmaker Michele FioreAdam Gabbatt (The Guardian)
IDK why, but out of all the horrible, no good, very depressing news on the front pages today, this one stuck in my head the most so far. From WaPo:
"At least several months ago, Israel’s top spy agency, the Mossad, began to smuggle missiles into Iran and secretly installed swarms of explosive drones deep inside the country, laying the groundwork for a devastating Israeli surprise attack on Friday morning. As Israel launched its air attack, the Mossad activated its planted drones, which struck missile launchers at a base near Tehran, a senior Israeli official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence operations."
But sure, let's spend a bajillion dollars building a nationwide golden ICBM shield.

in reply to Stephen Royle • • •We had an issue a few years ago with a duck that nested for multiple years on the inner yard of the university. The problem was, the mother duck and the ducklings couldn't reach water from there, as there was building on all sides. So there was a duck family rescue mission each summer. 😅
Likely something similar going on here.
