36 today, the same age as Kekulé when the structure of benzene came to him in a dream. I dreamt that a T-Rex was loose in Tralee last night, and have yet to apply it to the field of chemistry. 'Til then, there's 15% off all prints on http://www.ciaraioch.com/artprints using the code BIRTHDAY at checkout 🎂

Selkies are beautiful creatures from Irish, Faroese, and Scottish folklore who have the appearance of seals in water, but shed their skin to come ashore and reveal their human forms. If a human finds the skin and hides it, the selkie can't return to the sea 🦭

Realising the thing about being on text-based social media platforms is you get used to people typing complete sentences that reveal their personalities so you forget most people IRL and by extension on dating apps either write nothing, "just ask", or use three vague emojis in their one and only bio

Stamp doodle logo for the Conradh na Gaeilge AthGhaelú campaign "to encourage people to use Irish placenames instead of English placenames in all aspects of life."
They've also created a Gealltanas Logainmneacha "to encourage individuals and groups to use Irish-only placenames"
🚗 So turns out the noise that my car was making is of the diamond-encrusted, gold-plated financial bracket variety, so it would be a VERY good time to treat yourself to a print, if you've had your eye on one - and there's 10% off when you use the discount code FECKINGCAR at checkout for a limited time. Shop here: https://www.ciaraioch.com/artprints
The discount will still be running until the end of August so there's plenty of time left to either buy one or work out exactly how many of my foes to slay in exchange for one A4 or A3 print
Good afternoon from the Kingdom 🌞
Ireland's Ancient Animals, for which at least some evidence was found to suggest they once roamed this island, even if only for a while. Some might even make a comeback! Featuring the Irish elk, bear, lynx, great auk, wild boar, & wolf.

Don't think I've spoken to a single artist who didn't struggle this Christmas, and I spoke to a lot, so even if it's not my work I'd really encourage people to try to support a local artist that you like instead of big corporations - every single sale makes a real, tangible difference to their life.

Worried about the global economy? These prints do not need to be sent through any Strait to get to you and are safe from any shipping shenanigans, AND you can burn them for fuel when all our oil runs out ✨
The longer this year goes on, the more I'm starting to understand why companies invent holidays to sell things. Please consider buying a print so that I'm not forced to forcibly create Aprilgiving to encourage sales.

Scent of distant turf smoke and midnight curlew calls drifting gently through the sliver of open window into my bedroom. Irish winters can be hard but they're gorgeous, too.
DnD people of Mastodon - is there a way to export spells and their descriptions from DnD Beyond into a more print-friendly format, for someone who prefers physical references? I've tried a few sites like dnd-spells but they're missing some or aren't as up to date as the DnD Beyond site, with older descriptions than 5th Edition.
