@trivvieliz @MarianBWood I'm on there too actually - bsky.app/profile/mykocl… hopefully we don't scatter too much, but I'll be lurking around and seeing how things develop.

@greg_jenner Had seen you'd moved over - I think that's the final impetus I need to do the same. Following you over there now and happy to continue the happy little bubble of history and merriment away from all the chaos and mudslinging.

@DSRGenealogist Is this the one with the rooms from the old monastery and all the original frescos in the stacks?

@karendebruyne @MyHeritage @MyHChiefGen 6pm UK time Karen, hope you can make it!

@MyHeritage @MyHChiefGen @DapperHistorian Is it 1 pm US ET time?

🔍 We are going LIVE Tuesday on Facebook with genealogist Myko Clelland (@DapperHistorian) to update you on all our new historical collections! #genealogy

@SteveCollinsSJ How fascinating! Thanks for sharing.

Ladies, form an orderly queue! an 1865 appeal for a wife from Maine, USA - he has 'a good set of teeth', his 'buckwheat looks first rate' and he wants to buy you all the bread and butter you can handle...

@greg_jenner One of the most surreal and funny things I ever heard was him as Roald Dahl on the Dead Authors Podcast, attempting to wing it through his whole life story.

@spookyjulie I had forgotten about that! All clocks remain in place. The house is exactly as you remember, if you need any mid century Sicilian decorating inspiration for the new flat...

So proud of my grandparents celebrating their 72nd wedding anniversary, still inseparable after so long. Love is like a cough, it's impossible to hide.

@RadioWRFM Well spotted, you got it in one!

@DapperHistorian Outstanding photo and the 72 years gives it extra joy. Cameron Highlanders?

@cbgenealogy 18 and 20

@JohanGamper Who's to say where things will end up - It doesn't seem as friendly a place as it once was, but then perhaps that's true of the world right now, and makes it all the more important that we try to put a little positivity into proceedings.

@DapperHistorian I stayed out until I saw your statement. Now back. You’re right!

Twitter is a place full of great highs and lows, I urge you not to leave and let the lows win - in case the worst happens, I'd love to keep distracting you all by sharing all kinds of #history & #genealogy with you. You can now also find me on Mastodon - @dapperhistorian" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mastodon.scot/@dapperhistori…

@FearStairLmk If you need an excuse to visit certain streets, I'd love a picture or two of some of the areas my Grandfather lived!

I’ll never tire of exploring #Limerick

@oldscotbooks Have you never seen Indiana Jones?

Is it possible to be temporarily immortalised though?

@Rokewood @thehistoryguy I've never seen this book - Is it worth a read? My Ancestor was one of the ringleaders in 1820 (James Clelland - fourth on the list to be executed, first to be commuted to transportation), do they give much on him?

@thehistoryguy Read on …

@NotablyCapable @MyHeritage It was too hard to choose!

@DapperHistorian @MyHeritage How did you choose only four?

So much fun 'time travelling' this week with the @MyHeritage AI Time Machine. Absolutely mindblowing technology, and wonderful to see myself traipsing through the eras. Try it yourself here for free - myheritage.com/ai-time-machine

@michaelidermark @MyHeritage It does depend on the pictures you use to teach the computer - try to use all 25 (even if you have to crop out others) and try to get as close to the guidelines as possible for best results.

@KarenK4Justice 18th Century French Aristocrat, Arctic Explorer, Viking and British Army General I think. There were certainly some that weren't quite there (though you can see what they were going for), but the great ones more than made up for it.

@DapperHistorian What four categories are your photos above from? And did you have some real wild "swing and a miss" pictures in addition to these great ones?

@tomclarkgen @MyHeritage It was so hard to choose favourites - It's so realistic, have you had a go?

@DapperHistorian @MyHeritage Wow you look legit as any of them!
