Shortage of doctors in the NHS giving parliament new, unexpected powers.

scotland waiting for everyone else to wake up so we can tell them we didnae lose

every shop window in scotland currently looks like this btw (doxxing myself with the reflected abbey, i know, but it's a big toon you'll never catch me ya freaky bawbag)

i finished my night manager spanish civil war au! (sad ending because it's 1930s europe and we all know how that went 😟) archiveofourown.org/works/837556...

anyone catch the name of the artist that did that huge balaclava guy mural on the elephant in the room?

fuckin hell, i shouldnae huv to be warning mah neighbours to avoid the town centre racist 'protest' :( what the fuck, scotland >:(

happy pride lol 🏳️‍🌈

The big door at Central and the wee door onto Union Street are still shut, as is Smiths. (Pic taken last week.) No photoshopping here btw, that's just what Glaswegians look like. Have you no seen the 'Glasgow Smiles Better' signs?

Every trans-supporting cis person in the UK needs to make peace with becoming more annoying, persistent, and pedantic than they ever thought possible. EHRC guidance is full of contradictions - they're relying on transphobic compliance out of fear. DON'T GIVE IT TO THEM

wasn't sure what to email my MP on the EHRC guidance so i sent a long and overly pedantic email about disabled toilets and who i am supposed to be lending my radar key to now and whether trans people will have to pay the VAT on those. i am psyching myself up to be as annoying about this as i can.

thanks to the upstairs neighbour for letting me know that celtic won a football match today which was either a really important match or the victory was unusually exciting in some other way. he is still celebrating, so well done to celtic for whatever it was that they did earlier today👍

archiveofourown.org/works/837556... Here is a chapter 4 of a 7-chapter Night Manager Spanish Civil War AU. It's not filthy yet but it will be whenever I post the next part. So if you catch up on the plot now you can enjoy the E-rated m/m slash then without worrying that you missed anything.

idk why but this one cracks me the fuck up

yessss, after 15 years on AO3 i finally have the first (only!) work in a fandom! XD archiveofourown.org/tags/The%20J...

archiveofourown.org/works/83313971 Night Manager slash

'farage jumpscare' today because reform hide their election material in envelopes and i foolishly thought it might be something worth opening, only to get that cunt's face staring at me :(

here is my hottest fandom take: the huge increase in epic length fics (100k+ words) and the demand for them, as well as the increase wordcount in 'short' fics is not *despite* poor attention spans and low literacy, it's *because* of those. longer unedited texts have more repetition and filler

Genuinely cannot recommend this enough if you find yourself caring more about AO3 stats than you want to care. (I think having stats easily visible on AO3 was a bad idea anyway, and don’t get me started on the ‘congrats to my fic on its first [x thousand] hits/kudos!’ post thing people do now.)

so proud to have made the youtube algorithm overestimate my nerdiness levels to this degree 😊

it's fucking snowing!!

archiveofourown.org/works/81972971 Finished watching Tinker, Tailor, Etc and Smiley's People so here is a wee bit of G-rated George/Karla in which I have fucked about with future tense and 2nd person POV and censorship levels that would shame even a TikTok poster.

someone has complained that my crackfic does not present an accurate record of events in the marvel cinematic universe

archiveofourown.org/works/81473291 Pls enjoy this documentary following Loki's failed 2012 invasion of Earth.

happy 'slf play the barras' day to everyone who celebrates it

archiveofourown.org/works/81212651 A wee Still Game drabble

Protegee (Missy tutors Jamie Moriarty) Forget-Me-Not (Frigga mindwipes her son) A Wild Variant Appears (Pikachu the Thor variant) Her Molten Core (Earth/Theia babyfic) honey in the trap (baby's first night manager fic) archiveofourown.org/users/teh_no... <- all here somewhere (if you even care)

oh aye another thing that happened is i put fics that are by me on my own ao3 account instead of all over the place, which makes life easier for everyone. There's maybe something in there you haven't read that you might want to. If you like. archiveofourown.org/users/teh_no...

dreamed i had a pet creature of some kind. i think it was a guinea pig.

Very good photo from the BBC News livestream on the Glasgow fire

i'm no sayin central's NOT a nice building, i just think had it burned down fire last night the main concern would be the fact that it's the busiest station in scotland, one end of the uk west coast line, and even if it's just shut for a few days the disruption's massive. people huv tae get places!

Gonny say this as a friendly FYI… the Victorian building that collapsed is NOT the railway station, that seems ok so far. But if you want to use a devastating fire and my city’s pain as an excuse to be racist then get absolutely tae fuck. Keep Glasgow out of your rotten mouth and piss off.

The current view along Renfield Street. It seems like the flames have been quelled, although I'd really love to have it confirmed that Glasgow Central is out of danger.

is central station on fire now???

This is no longer about saving the corner building. It's lost. All the SFRS can do is try to prevent what would be a catastrophic spread to Glasgow Central Station. 📷 Vyro Media

hello it is now march and i have not yet recovered from the unexpectedly queer second series of the night manager (sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, sometimes it is very obviously not)

it turns out 'butter chicken' is a) similar to a tikka masala and b) called 'chicken makhani', and these two things combined at last explained why i'd never heard of it until recently even though it's apparently everywhere and rly popular.

they've released the secret extra end titles card from the night manager 2!!!!!

archiveofourown.org/works/79170256 it's a crossover between the jeely piece song and the film high-rise. i am sure you instantly understand my vision just from that info.

i cut my hair short, omg my head is so much lighter now, as is my soul.

i am still dying of plague it is very unpleasant i hate it. i wish to become unsick.

kids on tumblr are so determined to have been queerbaited by the night manager, it's bizarre. you could show them actual gay porn and they'd go "okay but they didn't marry in the end so it queerbaited me" :(

Day 4 of the Plague, it is somehow worse. I think this is because I stupidly tried to sleep, I will not do that again. This is very unpleasant plague, do not recommend.

thanks to this cold i currently sound like marge simpson but cracking mid-sentence like when taylor swift pretends she can't do the high notes at full power. (idk if she's really pretending, i assume she must be cos i think it's just a modern singing trend? 'ironic spice girl vocal range'?)
