Millions of our books have been used to train generative AI without asking us, the writers. Here's the Irish Writers Union representing and fight for our rights... @KidsBooksIrel

That's terrible. ❤️

Did you know if you go to an adult hospital in an emergency with a small person who happens to have an intellectual disability they may not have a sats probe to fit. If your young person has any issue that needs monitoring this is dangerous. @HSELive @NPQD_CHB @stjamesdublin

Moving over to Bluesky... Hope to see you there!

I'm glad @rtenews have taken up the issue of Meta's AI training and the piracy of the works of Irish writers:

There is huge discrimination in Ireland against people with disabilities, intellectual & physical, in healthcare, education, employment, housing, advocacy, in every way possible. Access, transport, toileting, parking spaces, disability allowance & indirectly carer’s allowance.

[Gaza Notifications @gazanotice]

“Get up and report the news… please, speak.”
🚨A heartbreaking farewell from the father of journalist Mohammed Mansour, killed by the Israeli army.

In the end, the grieving father could only say, “I wish I were the journalist instead of you.”

The Government Media Office in Gaza reports that the number of journalists killed by Israel in Gaza has risen to 207, following the death of journalist Mohammed Mansour.

Had a fab evening at the @WritersUnion_ie networking event in Drogheda library yesterday evening!
Lovely to meet so many wonderful writers!

(A bonus was to catch a sneak peek at the bookshelves - only two of my books left on the shelves!) #writerslife #WritingCommmunity

@NicolaPierce3 So sorry to hear this. Deepest sympathy ❤️

[Lindsay J Sedgwick @LJSedgwick]

@annieryan849 Thanks for sharing that. It's hard to remain confident in our writing, and it does help to hear how other writers handle it!

[Lindsay J Sedgwick @LJSedgwick]

@HelenORahilly Loved all the exchanges and the book was such fun to read - Yyou made her immortal!

[Minding Creative Minds @MindingCreative]
