That was easy, now we’ll all remember him as a Nobel prize winner rather than a pedophile.

Today I had to explain Iran’s been a Muslim country for 1,300 years. It wasn’t overrun by asylum seekers in the 1970s.

Here’s a short blog post about shopping for a laptop that can handle design work and music. I bought mine for £230. madmarch.co.uk/2026/01/06/b...

I want to see a version of ‘A Christmas Carol’ where Tommy Robinson gets visited by three Muslim boxers instead of ghosts. 🎄 🥊

Enoch Powell playing the clarinet. He gave it up because he feared ut would give him passions he couldn’t control. He admitted to family he wasn’t attracted to women at university and later in life he told a friend he’d been in love with a man. I drew a version of him where he’s happy. 🏳️‍🌈

I’ve been taking stock of nearly 500 OpenProcessing sketches. I keep getting lost in them when I look through them. This is what cyberspace is for. openprocessing.org/sketch/2810585

Given the current temperature in Glasgow, I figured it's worth posting this plaque I came across on Westbank Quadrant about the origins of Lord Kelvin's ground-breaking research into absolute zero while he was at Glasgow University. Cont./ #glasgow #glasgowtoday #keepglasgowweird #lordkelvin

This archive of live works by the pianist Jessica Williams is one of the most remarkable jazz finds in recent memory, and our Album of the Day.

I’m hypnotised by this P5.js sketch of mine. Pinch to zoom and rotate. openprocessing.org/sketch/2461696

So the Epstein vote isn't the only reason Mike Johnson should fear Rep. Yassamin Ansari. More of this, please.

@scotnational.bsky.social hi, think you need to fix this article? The formatting’s broken and its attributed to The Herald - www.thenational.scot/news/2557163...

Annoy the FASH by coming to our post-punk show on Thursday. Donations for Refuweegee welcome.

SNP are going to have to up their game too, now that an English party are finally talking about taxing the rich rather than cutting welfare and blaming immigration.

YAS come to Scotland and find out how things should work (apart from the things decided by London) 😉

New! Cassetteboy vs Keir Starmer. This took absolutely ages, so if you'd like to buy us a coffee at ko-fi.com/cassetteboy we'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

SNP branch meeting tonight. Remember the Tweeddale Amendment, folks: “the mandate for independence will come directly from a majority of the popular vote for pro-independence parties on the list cast by the sovereign Scottish people.” 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇮🇪 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Scotland is a nation - and nations have the right to decide their future. Today I have launched and signed the Right to Decide declaration. Let’s make Scotland’s voice heard loud and clear. Add your name here: yes.scot/decide

‘Your Right to Decide’ is out today, worth reading if you believe in an independent Scotland, or just that political unions should be consensual, not coercive. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 www.gov.scot/publications...

What a shower of bullies. Safety in numbers eh?

Rights protected by the ECHR in an independent Scotland. 1: Obligation to respect Human Rights. 2: Right to life 3: Prohibition of torture 4: Prohibition of slavery and forced labour For the full list go to www.echr.coe.int/documents/d/... Reform plan on leaving the ECHR

A few months ago I boarded a train in Manchester and got threatened with a big fine for not having a ticket with the correct train company. Nationalised rail just works.

NICs aren’t devolved so only independence would give us control over this. The SNP have lost the habit of framing bad Westminster policy as an argument for breaking up the U.K. 🤷

It’s worth remembering that David Cameron only agreed to a Scottish Independence referendum because after the SNP landslide of 2011, they were very likely going to hit the low threshold for independence set by Thatcher. Referendums are a tool for holding on to Scotland.

This should be easy, then. @teamlabouruk.bsky.social do you agree that an SNP majority at Holyrood will trigger a second referendum? Just need the Prime Mjnister to agree and we’re all set.

I’m messaging my own SNP branch about this. Swinney’s plan won’t work, the SNP aren’t popular enough.

Trump’s visit and the banal coverage reminds me that while Scotland is owned by England, England is owned by the USA. Being part of the EU is the only way for medium and small countries like ours to have a voice, rather than doing what we’re told.

Black metal, grindcore and hardcore tonight in Glasgow.

Watercolour for someone who came to one of our shows on their birthday. They’re a fan of black metal and noise. #watercolour #gouache #blackmetal #harshnoise

Just listen to how Stephen Colbert answered this question off the cuff.

Was going to get a Paramount subscription for Yellowjackets but sod that.

Agree with this. A second financial crash under Labour’s watch will finish them off as a party. They gave up on electoral reform or reform of the House of Lords, which would actually improve the U.K. Instead, the faction who run Labour govern the U.K. like Enoch Powell and Margaret. Thatcher.

Totally agree with Colin T of Largs @theSNP must now put #ScottishIndependence front & centre and start turbocharging for #Defacto26 Inspire us @JohnSwinney Inspire Scots, make them feel Scotland can & should be independent. Show them a vision for a better future. Inspire them & they will come!

@gerryhassan.bsky.social I enjoyed your article ‘an open future’. Did you ever write up what you learned at Scotland 2020? I’d be curious to read it.

My local Labour MP added her name to a list of MPs who will oppose her own party’s welfare cuts. I’m pleasantly surprised, she voted to keep the 2 child cap after saying she was against it while she campaigned in Glasgow. For the SNP: how do we get people to vote for us when our own MPs get ignored?

The @snp.org need a firm commitment to independence as our top priority, and a plan for how to achieve it within a reasonable timescale (5 years). If not, we’ll keep losing members and losing elections.

It's the SNP National Council this weekend. It's *vital* that the SNP announces a plan for campaigning for independence as their no.1 policy in GE2026, or risk losing many, many voters. Devolution is being eroded. We must regain independence. #UseItOrLoseIt indyposterboy.scot/drip-drip-dr...

When Labour say they’re the party of working people, they mean they’re the party of capital. They only care about people who earn an income, who are mainly male and of working age. If you’re out of work you’re bad, and the system which is designed to look after you is bad too.

Scots who campaigned for independence in 2014 will recognise this kind of cropping and photoshopping, from when the Scottish media pretended crowds of people were showing up to cheer on Labour and the Union.

Great picture.
