A remarkable oil painting, Chalice of Saint John the Evangelist, by Nederlandish artist Hans Memling, 1470/1475.

His paintings were quite a hit in Renaissance Italy and influenced some of Raphael's paintings as well.

    Do we really want this AI stuff here? Dunno. I declined it, as I certainly don’t. I assume this is some kind of bot or tool and may ‘read’ our toots and use them, including any attachments, in order to ‘educate’ itself. Maybe this should be a block and / or report? Any advice?

    @harriettmb I wish so many of my "regulars" weren't on mastodon dot social. There's so much garbage coming from there I'd rather just block the whole domain.

    WEEK 17: This morning, hundreds of European and American officials penned a letter to their governments denouncing Israel’s war on Gaza as 'one of the worst human catastrophes of this century'. The statement – titled 'It Is Our Duty To Speak Out When Our Governments Policies Are Wrong' – denounced policies that 'weaken' their nations’ 'moral standing' in the world.
    via Aljazeera

    Full statement here:

    Tuesday: Belgium announces it will not be withdrawing financial support from UNRWA.

    Thursday: Israel bombs the Belgian Agency for Development Cooperation office in Gaza. It's been completely destroyed.
    Edit - source is Belgian Minister for Development Cooperation on X

    @Susan60 In the same way that when Macron criticised the level of civilian deaths in Gaza, the French Institute in Gaza was mysteriously bombed the same day 🤔
    Or when the Pope called for a ceasefire, they targeted the Holy Family Church ...

    @FediTips
    Hey 👋 😊 This might be a little outside your remit but I've got a question. Why isn't the "follower request" option a default, rather than the other way around? There's been a massive increase in recent weeks of garbage accounts and bots turning up, both from dodgy instances and some of the main ones like mastodon dot social. To my admittedly non-tech mind, it would seem a relatively simple way to reduce their impact.
    Your input would be appreciated 🙂
    Thanks!

    @RolloTreadway It's most definitely physical as well as mental health.
    Luckily I don't really suffer from it any more but I understand how debilitating it is. Don't minimise it.

    I kinda think of you as North Wales' ambassador to Northumbria - or the other way round, whichever you prefer 😊
    I defer to your more knowledgeable stance on Teeside.
    We probably don't want Anglia either. Or Essex. Or Kent. Or Surrey, for that matter.

    fkamiah17 OP ,
    @fkamiah17@toot.wales avatar

    @RolloTreadway @essjayjay @BashStKid @wav3ydave From my admittedly fairly limited knowledge of Yorkshire, I think being an independent republic of their own would rather suit them. Don't force them to have Teeside though, that's very much their decision 😂

    @fkamiah17@toot.wales avatar

    @RolloTreadway @essjayjay @BashStKid @wav3ydave Having grown up in NW Kent, with Essex actually visible from the town centre, there are more reasons than historical ethnicity to keep that particular region waaaay out of it.

    @RolloTreadway I'm sorry to hear that. I had a bout of horrible nightmares a week or so ago, it's really grim.
    Would you like to join our Northern Exposure watchalong? It's really fun and a great distraction from All The Things. You don't need to catch up, it's not the sort of show where you'll miss plotlines or anything. I can give you links to the episodes, so you don't need to worry about sourcing them.
    Our next one is tonight at 7. Let me know if you want to play 😊 🤗

    @RolloTreadway Ha! I get that. I remember it from when it first aired, so I've got a kind of youthful affection for it - it's very silly.
