atBuzz Aldrin imparts advice to Buzz Lightyear in 2008 before he (Lightyear) was sent to the International Space Station for over a year.
Clue: he bought his phone the year she was born.
Yes, it’s Aoife Kenny.
She’s running for Irish Language Officer in UCD.
As she says herself: “Tá an Ghaeilge láidir i gCÓBÁC agus ba mhaith liom í a dhéanamh níos láidre fós an bhlian seo chugainn. Is mar gheall ar seo go bhfuil sé ar intinn agam ritheadh d’Oifigeach na Gaeilge san SU.”
Which is easy for her to say.
Evidently.
Also: Aoife appears to be opposing current Fine Gael policy on the Irish language.
Awkwardini.

But why would you call it th…
Oh right.

Tree House
at
Or house tree? Hmm.
Photographer Marianne Kjølner sez of this tree she snapped in Denmark:
This old pink house is situated at the old dunes, a few hundred meters from the west coast, a very windy place were there isn’t much that can grow. So the tree can only grow where it has shelter. It has looked this way always.
Nature, u awesome.
Or, householder, u secretly pruning.
