So decided to go to see @imeldamay.bsky.social Oh wow what a voice what an artist what a person. Wearing the brilliant Éadach designs by @saraoneill.bsky.social
It’s the Masters Golf ⛳️ day 2. McIlroy had the perfect start to the tournament. Can he capitalise on that good start. With Rose, Fleetwood & Lowry still not out of it. Plus Fitzpatrick still hanging on in there!

Masters Golf ⛳️ time. Can McIlroy win back to back Masters. Can Rose go one better. Can a Fitzpatrick win the Masters
Earth and Moon from DSCOVR NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured this unique view of the Moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth last month. This view shows the fully illuminated “dark side” of the moon that is never visible from Earth. Ian Regan processed this version of the image to account for the Moon's motion. NASA / NOAA / Ian Regan
I hadn't seen this before. This is pretty remarkable.

I have to believe that one day the US President's communications will once again not routinely be so unhinged that you have to triple check the source to confirm they're not bad taste parody...
... but it is not this day.
If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment.
This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.
That should be another cracking game
It was a cracking game, I thoroughly enjoyed it. So pleased Ulster won. I think they deserve to get something out of this season.
Right wing media: DEFUND THE BBC.
Right wing media: why can’t the BBC now afford to show the thing I like?

What these Express etc. stories (reproduced with only slightly more explanation by the BBC etc.) show is that much of the UK discussion of Brexit/EU/SM is still stuck where it was in 2016 (and long before, for that matter), as Brussels meanly 'meddling with British traditions'. 1/2
Marmalade. A country that was once a serious contributor to affairs of international importance. F**king marmalade.
Southampton are in their 14th FA Cup semi-final: they beat Watford in 2003 (losing the final to Arsenal) but lost to Chelsea (2018) and Leicester 2021.
Won 4 (1900, 1902, 1976, 2003), winning the cup once
Lost 9
Brexitiers have to have something to feel aggrieved over. So they can whip up as much hysterical nonsense as possible. They use emotive language when they want to sell their points. So they use Domination v us using Cooperation!
Express headline: Marmalade Madness!
Seems this needs to be explained again.
The agglomération of small regulations is what makes a single market.
Without them, you have no 🇪🇺, no unity.
Focusing on the minutiae where the UK is not happy, and not the 1000s of regs the UK doesn't notice, is what led to Brexit.

What's the Monarchy For?
Fascinating and excellent three part documentary about the Royals. David Dimbleby is superb. Dimbleby’s own view, is that he is neither an instinctive, sentimental, ardent royalist (as his father Richard but nor is he any kind of iconoclastic republican
