Sorry, an all day ticket on the bus is EIGHT POUND THIRTY?! I’m just going to the city centre, not the bloody Winter Palace in St. Petersburg in 1914. Get a GRIP First Bus.

Lads, I’m so sorry, but I do not like Edinburgh. Barely out of Haymarket five minutes and the vibes are terrible. A French tourist just spat in front of me and gave it a very emphatic “je suis desolee” Nah. Hate this city.

That’s me away to see cmat This top came half an hour before I had to leave the house. Thank you god (cmat) for this blessing xoxo

The most horrific part of Resident Evil: Requiem is this perfect recreation of where I used to do the dishes on third floor of the Argyle Street Pizza Hut while weird teens in KFC stared at me.

Oof. I just read your post in the most uncharitable, pedantic way possible, and I gotta tell ya: it's not looking good for you.

My neighbour fries a lot of fish and smokes a lot of weed (often with his door open) so a good amount of my monthly budget is currently being blown on scented candles, room sprays, plug in air fresheners, and soon, some sort of thermo-nuclear device.

I hate being a historian

I don't ever really "feel old" but I'm making a playlist for a pal coming over tomorrow night and we've known each other since 2012 and I'm suddenly like "oh shit, all of this music is very old and so am I." Finding old playlists I made when we used to hang out and like "what's a mumford and son"

it takes an alarming amount of effort to be like a medium level of healthy, and keep my house clean, and go and work so I don't die. Medium level of healthy is doing so much heavy lifting here. Something I myself I cannot do.

Please appreciate this banger shirt from @roryblank.bsky.social I am obsessed

Fix your heart or die 💔

Your energy bills will go down by around £117 per year. But your bus pass has increased by £143 pounds. For no real reason. And your internet has gone up £45 this year. To improve the network. But it's the same speed. And your rent's going up by fifty quid per month. To market value.

a typo or the most audacious two-hander imaginable?

So there was a job I had back in 201...8? where one of the requirements was knowing about blockchain, and planning strategy around it. In 2026 I still don't know what blockchain is, and frankly I do not want to know. My life is actively better not knowing. Leave me alone xoxo

My brain whenever people talk about billionaires

I've done a big rant on "philanthropists" from history on my IG stories as there's a post about Andrew Carnegie doing the rounds and to sum it up - we do not need billionaire philanthropists. We need redistribution of wealth. One man should not have the power to make hundreds of people homeless.

A staggeringly cynical exploitation of the precarity & repacious rent seeking of the Thatcherite housing model in this country. This is what you get once you've flogged off most of your national housing stock to private landlords who then rent you back what you used to own at vastly inflated prices

So I’ve decided to put my book about Robert Owen on the back burner and I’m instead going to write the book I was meant to write: the lives of working class women and children in Glasgow. (Probably 1780-1875)

A paedo former prince got arrested and I got a giant loaf from Freedom Bakery. What a day.

Aw, I like it when you see people facing consequences. That's lovely.

I miss when my instagram feed was 80% videos of that one person being like "I'm Chloe Sevigny" and then saying words and celebrity names for around 2 minutes. That was really nice. Now it's like "do you hate every part of your body? Here's a fake product for your teeth/hair/gut/pinky/inner ear"

I'm working on my next history talk and an important part of it is summing up the past 20 years or so and I couldn't bring myself to do it sensibly so

Me whenever I have to communicate with other human beings #anxiety

Was stressed in the shops and accidentally bought weed drink How exciting What a wee rebel Look at me lads, I am edgy

Oh you haven’t seen my new tattoo. Mary, I’ve you

RIP Catherine Howard. You’d have loved a vodka red bull and tapping a Sterling Dual off a fella with a fade and Turkey teeth xoxo

Sort of...overwhelmed by yon gainful employment at the minute so fully living for my current routine which is going home and watching history documentaries in my big, comfy hoodie. Tonight I will make a quesadilla, and I will eat the quesadilla and be like "no Catherine Howard, don't shag him"

I love all genders🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 Because I have no gender. Especially right now, transgender people are living with a lot of anxiety. Why are transgender people not allowed to freely love the people they want to love? Why can't transgender individuals live their lives with the soul they prefer?

I really want to find a boyfriend who is super into hiking so that he won’t be mad when I ask him to leave me in the car with the window rolled down a bit. See you in 5 hours bbz xxx

Would not recommend piercing into 5 hour tattoo sitting. I am wiped and thinking fondly of pizza. And hot wings.

Gonna post this every year until I die

Happy Valentine’s Day pals. I am getting a new tattoo and piercing today because that is my romantic gift to me; hours of pain.

Looking forward to the Forge Pyramid Head.

First *in walking distance* Grindr message I’ve gotten since I’ve moved and I’ve regrettably just eaten an excessive volume of quesadillas

Watched the first episode of How to Get to Heaven from Belfast and now I'm wondering if someone could send me a wee three hour teams invite for a fake webinar so I can keep watching thanks in advance xoxo

I could eat anything from 6-15 pieces of French toast right now. Anything from a mother's pride right up to fancy doorstop bread. This isn't a brag, it's just recognition of both need and volume required for satiety.

Been really struggling to get to sleep the last few nights and I've come to the realisation that, in my attempt to replace Red Bull with black coffee, I've just added black coffee without giving up Red Bull. Like if instead of giving up smoking, you just added 5 blueberry ice elf bars.

OK so I know I'm bad for a spiral, but really trying to be grateful for being where I am at this moment in time, in that I'm launching a community energy project just as £1bn in funding gets announced for that, while a Community Wealth Building Act passes first stage at the Scottish Parliament.

Grökke, I just posted 7 Instagram stories about Mary, Queen of Scots before I've even had breakfast. Am I OK?

I need to work out why, when a guy is interested in me, he is not actually interested in *me*. I mean, I don't mean this in a self-deprecating way, but I'm not *hot*. I have a medium to good personality though, but I only seem to attract dudes who perfected conversation with brick walls.

Really enjoying the spin rn "the cabinet, who you also would like to resign, are all supporting the person you really want to resign. Indeed, Baron Von Fistybum, posted on their X account 'weloveNetanyahu:' the public love us, and they love the PM. All the bad things we've done are great actually."

I think we should all get to go home early whenever a PM resigns. Like they're getting to go early, why can't I? I'm not the one resigning in disgrace. I'm continuing on with aplomb, thank you. I'd just rather do it on an earlier bus.

I don't know how to feel about this.

I asked myself everything I know about myself and my job and I made a drawing of me at my job

Every time I see someone extolling the virtues of 996 working (9am - 9pm, 6 days a week), I think about my ancestors, who worked from 6am - 9pm, 6 days per week. And how they went on strike, went without pay, and food, and warmth to stop us ever having to live like that again. (1/6)

Hey! I did a creeping but ultimately skelping remix of Mushroom House, from the Everhood 2 OST, for Stewart Keller’s Everhood 2 RMX album! You can check out the full release on bandcamp and the usual streaming platforms. stewartkeller.Bandcamp.com/track/mushro...
