Billy is bamboozled by baubles this morning. #cat #billywilliam

After Billy helped me with the lights yesterday, Mr Gum has emerged from stealth to grab the power slot beneath the tree! #cat #billywilliam #mrgum

I live in Wales and today received my Join Us letter from Reform UK, complete with SAE which I posted back to them, immediately, empty. If every other person in Wales did this, Reform would spend over £1.5 million on postage. Not sorry. Join me Cymru.

Billy is very chilled out tonight after all the chaos helping to get the Christmas decorations up! #caturday #cat #billywilliam

There's nothing quite so gratingly cheerful at breakfast than a bright empty mcdonalds with Christmas pop schlop playing. #mcdonalds #eastkilbride

This is a very low polygon Frosty from a bygone age in a shop window! New GPU required! #glasgow #onabus #scotland

Cyberpunk, the 1980s dystopian vision of our techy now, is the child of a small number of super-influential writers. The great @rudytheelder (@mastodon.social) has released 'Mirrorshades' from the dawn of the era. It will *blow your mind* rudyrucker.com/mirrorshades/ #cyberpunk #cyber #mirrorshades

Brilliantly bonkers in the bright winter sun, Christmas Cafe Transylvania on Victoria Road! #glasgow #cafetransylvania #vickyroad

A bit later than its intended audience, but this is a bright spiky morning after mix that's chill - just like the days we have now. Fantastic! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... #bbc6music #6music #bbcsounds

Reading www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/o... and seeing folk using LLMs and talking about the future of 'AI' (not the same thing!) the more I wonder who will come up with @nealstephenson.bsky.social "Young Ladies Illustrated Primer" (and who will control the narrative for our kids future!?)

Daylight is finally visible, filtered and barely there through the glass and blinds of the office window. #Glasgow #Office #Clyde #Scotland

If it's provable (by dint of personal investment strategies) that these folks in positions of public power manipulated the market, the UK FCA should be all over this. If they just lied because they were stupid (as appears to be the case) then I'm unsure if there's any recourse.

The squiggly bridge is a raucously reflected rainbow in the predawn quiet of the Clyde on my work walk this morning. #Glasgow #Clyde #Scotland #Squiggly

Watching this and hearing @hayleyjfowler.bsky.social say "This is the least extreme climate that you will experience in your lifetime" should have everyone rushing to sign this open letter to the PM www.nebriefing.org/open-letter-... Kill the disinfo - the UK needs to be properly prepared!

The Big Yin reaches up to lend a hand to the Ferris wheel to 'gie it a birl' in St Enoch's square, Glasgow. #glasgow #stenoch #billyconnolly #bigyin

Monday morning ugh. Didn't help get going today when the bus timetabling app was borked. #monday #onabus #glasgow #firstbusglasgow

Happy St. Andrew's Day to each and every one of you! #StAndrew

You couldn’t get that movie made. The plot is too outlandish.

It's very stormy outside tonight and Mr Gum and Billy William have found their favourite sofa spots to ride out the blusters. #cat #mrgum #billywilliam

What is bizarre to me is why this hasn't just happened automagically. Takes 30 seconds to sign, go for it!

The view from Glasgow Bridge looking east into the predawn light. Carlton Place's magnificently neglected facades hiding dark and unloved on the south side of the Clyde. #Glasgow #Clyde #Predawn

In an era filled with tech dipshits who never developed emotionally past the age of 13 & use their wealth to become odious monsters ... ... listen to Steve Wozniak.

The state — and state schools — must not teach any religion as truth or push it on children. It’s simple: would Christian parents want their kids taught Islam as fact? Or Muslims want their kids taught Christianity? Exactly. That’s why we keep all religious indoctrination out of public education!

Shocking scene in Glasgow today as the Duke is without the appropriate headgear! #glasgow #ironduke

A very slow start to this week's Monday madness, ably assisted by a carefully constructed morning after mix from #6music #bbc #morningaftermix www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Interesting. I wonder if a key decision maker has recalled this bit of IT lore and decided they don't want to be the test case in a court. "A computer can never be held accountable. Therefore a computer must never make a management decision." IBM 1979 apparently. simonwillison.net/2025/Feb/3/a...

Good morning from the South Portland St Suspension Bridge! What a cracking view to greet me on the work walk. #glasgow #predawn

After some nervous footling with various spudgers, I now have a new battery in my 2016 Kindle Voyage - still a scarily good e-reader. #kindle #repair #spudger

Billy is singularly unimpressed with catch-up Strictly tonight. I confess, I agree! #caturday #cat #billywilliam

It's bitterly cold outside, but Billy William is cosily crashed on the warming blanket on the sofa. #cat #billywilliam

Today I have mostly been announcing some new bollocks to replace the last lot of bollocks that we were forced to admit was total bollocks.

Wow, Scotland, fantastic! World Cup here we come! Awesomesauce! #scotland #worldcup #awesome #awesomesauce

The boys waiting (im)patiently for some tasty scran this morning. #cat #mrgum #billywilliam
