If you intend to vote Scottish Green this May, please be aware of potential voter confusion on the peach coloured regional list ballot paper. Take care to mark your X next to the actual Scottish Greens and not another party which has 'GREEN' dominating their ballot insignia.

Standing on another players foot is not a foul lads. Glad that's sorted.

Official UEFA explanation for overturning the Eze penalty - "82' Decision overturned: No penalty. Atleti player, No17, did not commit a foul on the opponent."

Tom Hiddlestone on why Arsenal being under pressure and being under the weight if expectations is like breathing "rare air". Love his perspective, and one we as fans should also embrace imo.

This is catastrophic.

The Claude logo is just the Kurt Vonnegut butthole doodle

Glasgow nominations for the Holyrood election are out. The far-right Independent Green Voice is back. In 2021, this fake party, led by a Holocaust denier thrown out of UKIP, probably cost the Scottish Greens two MSPs.

If you wander through Queen’s Park regularly you’ll want to give this excellent piece a read!

Ooooh go on, you know you want to bully Transport Scotland into pulling down part of the M8. You do! Fixing or replacing the viaducts will commit us to having a motorway carving up Glasgow until we all die and long after, probably. Strike the first blow, now, while it’s weak!!!

Well here I was thinking that Jimmy Reid would have been ashamed of his starmerite granddaughter and her opaque investment shell-company director of a husband but it turns out they were communist spies the whole time so that’s grand.

This is exactly what happens when public bodies run public assets as if they are capitalists, seeking rent and profit above all else. City Property should be explicitly tasked with using its assets to support the cultural life of the city. Instead it is constitutionally bound to seek rent. Shoddy.

ai is a rhetorical technology. when it produces a list of permissible targets, its value is not producing targets but producing permission

It’s all the same on the video screens

Joe Dante and Hideo Kojima are close seconds but no director was more right about the future of war than Barry Levinson with the 1992 box office flop Toys.

Tonight I was putting my two year old daughter to bed, reading her a story and there was a faraway ‘boom’ outside. Probably just a firework, as it turned out, but with the news the way it is, it made my blood run cold.

there's an entire industry determined to make it so that there are Overseers, but no human has to be the face of the whip

Transport Scotland are consulting on demolishing the M8 Woodside Viaducts. Please, if you have a second today and you care about Glasgow, go look at this surreal virtual exhibition (could have been a PDF?) and tell them to stop throwing good money after bad, and get these monstrosities DEMOLISHED.

The reason you can’t give a single inch on anything be it trans rights or dignity for unhoused people is that they, democrats and republicans alike, will take it and say thanks what else is in your pockets? They won’t say thanks actually.

at last, we have invented retrophenology from the classic Discworld text Don’t Invent Retrophenology

Read my post on the fall out of last nights BAFTA's here. This is an opportunity to increase understanding of oppositional tics and acknowledge the complex realities and impacts of the condition: www.touretteshero.com/safe/2026/02...

Love it when an attack ad makes the intended target look metal as fuck. I would buy this album.

This is a brutal and beautiful rant. Well worth a read.

Computer news: no computer for you. Computer is a service now it’s a chatbot that you gave to ask nicely of, just like no more searching for things on your own on Internet or downloading your own files Now it’s all an app And it’s your friend. And you owe us money for this now and no birds alive

Truly the most stupid timeline. At a point in time where renewable energy has tipped into genuine widespread viability, capital invents whole new ways to fabricate waste and scarcity.

FYI this is probably fake. Hope it gets taken down. The post either doesn’t exist or was deleted and the users existing posts look a lot like an AI doing karma farming. Discrediting AI is currently the easiest way to farm clout on Reddit because everyone wants that to be true.

At least Frank got a cup before he was sacked

It's disturbing to see how Gordon Brown has whitewashed his reasons for reappointing Mandelson, and his own role in eroding democracy. Mandelson's official business was similar to his unauthorised scheming with Epstein. Don't let them rewrite history. My column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Sarwar showing his arse and Starmer limping on is absolutely 10/10 the most hilarious timeline. Thank you everyone, great work today no notes.

We have known about this since January but are only posting about it today, for totally ordinary random reasons. We are very serious journalists.

Incredibly sad and depressing

Love my club

It's always projection: the folk on the make were the UK Taxi companies! Not the asylum seekers!

Do we think that a) Epstein is the only person Mandy was doing favours for? and b) Mandy is the only one doing favours for people? Do we?

Who the hell was this?

Absurd that the Mandelson story has revealed that the Government can appoint Lords but apparently can't remove them 🫠 Should be a wake up call for Starmer to get on with his very reliable and trustworthy pledge to abolish the whole institution.

artists/musicians/venues I am BEGGING you to have a simple monthly newsletter and a page on a website that isn't fucking Facebook where I can find your upcoming events, so that I can attend them. thank you for your attention to this matter.

For me, the most interesting element here are the AI images – the moment when a story becomes a visual meme. While memefication works without genAI, it appears to supercharge participatory propaganda, allowing people to visualize their imaginary fears and hopes, making them much more shareable

This is one of the more subtle ways that GenAI changes the stakes of culture. In the past, if you wanted a propaganda poster this inflammatory, you’d need to find an artist with both the skill and the political will. Now anyone can just conjure good-enough images to advocate for any extreme.

For every retweet I will make Zuckerberg’s creep glasses 5% thicker

This is insane. Anyone involved in running the CCA over the past few years should be hanging their heads in shame. We need to get an occupation plan in place to reopen it asap.

"The UK creative industries — which contributed £125 billion to the economy in 2024 and supported 2.4 million jobs — are being destroyed by an AI sector that, whatever its long-term potential, contributed just £11 billion in the same year and supported only 85,000 jobs." archive.is/hvRv2

"Rees told jurors he joined “anti-Ulez” Facebook groups and pages out of “boredom” and because it provided him with a sense of community." 63 yo blew up a ulez camera, endangering people around it, after getting radicalised with conspiracy theories on Facebook

Quote this post with what YOU would do with 83.6bn dollars

A bargain 😳

This should be a national scandal but the press in this country think computers are magical wizard boxes so nothing will happen.

This government clearly don't really understand the complexity or the danger of the situation. They show no sign of beginning to understand, and every sign of asking the monorail salesman how public transport should work. It's going to be an uphill struggle, but don't leave this to politicians.

The lede somewhat buried in this sadly paywalled article imho: National Arts Companies make the Scottish government £60m back for £24m of investment. Doesn’t that seem like the kind of investment you’d want to put some more money into?
