My university (Aberystwyth) is having a thing at the Royal Welsh Show next Tuesday and sent me an invite.

As I'm a distance learner I thought I might pop along and meet some of the staff.

But £32 for a daily entry ticket! Wow!

Will have to think carefully about that

Should not-for-profits use Facebook, Google, etc. Or are there better alternatives for social good organisations?

I spoke with @nonprofits recently about this, the fediverse, small web, and more.

My partner and I are supposed to move to Ireland, from the USA, in a month. Still haven't found any housing. Gah!

Anyone know anyone who may be able to help us out? We're both artists/academics, and my partner has a job already at UCD in Dublin. We just need a place to land, even if its temporary. House sitting, apartment, house rental, private rooms, we're open to anything within 1 hour commute to Dublin via public transit.

If you know anyone who could help we would greatly appreciate it! We're almost in despair-mode 😅

I don't have a lot of followers on here, but feel free to boost this post if you're comfortable doing that!

Be very wary of this charlatan. Until he’s out of Downing Street, he can do immeasurable damage to the country.
