Car brand BYD's new SUV ad pokes fun at people walking and cycling, comparing them to Horse & Carts. It joins a long list of car ads that sell a false promise of convenience and aspiration while punching down at sustainable transport modes. So I made it a bit more realistic...

I agree with a pay per mile driving charge for EVs. But a key fact that many are missing is that fuel duty has been frozen since 2010 and petrol is cheaper now than 2 decades ago. It's about time conventional car drivers actually started paying a fair share too. www.theguardian.com/business/nil...

The Bell reporting music changes at BBC radio Scotland: ‘The mix of programmes in the late night slot, which cover a diverse range of music and audiences, is set to be replaced with “one generic music programme”.’

Support acts announced for Glasgow Green’s annual KSBN festival

Good story about Krautrock producer Conny Plank. Quite fucking right pal

I expected this shit from British Cycling but I thought better of Cycling UK.

I don't get all the fuss about Nick Cave. He's a bang average lyricist, writes forgettable melodies and has the politics and religion of a Home Counties pensioner.

This is going to hurt them in every seat where "we hate you and them" opens a route for the Greens, Libdems, SNP, and Plaid. So... every seat in Scotland and Wales next year and a disaster in the English cities pulverising their activist base.

I should be at a grindcore extravaganza in Glasgow with Wormrot and Endless Swarm but no, you dicks have to chuck explosives around. Solidarity with all pet owners.

well I for one am shocked that "every aspect of your life gets worse forever and also look at my marble bathroom" did not turn out to be a winning election strategy

Napalm Death playing Ibrox seems like an @oldfirmfacts.bsky.social meme.

VP Cheney will be honoured with a 21 gun salute accidentally aimed directly at 21 of his friends

Renationalise without compensation and fire everyone at Ofwat (out of a cannon into the sun)

Just days after saying there was no place for transphobia in her new party Zarah Sultana cheered recruiting anti-trans trade unionist Mark Serwotka. Mark now saying exactly what you'd expect - that he intends to expunge the trans rights movement from Your Party to bring in anti-trans campaigners.

Scotland now choosing games purely to get Hogg off their top scorers list.

Games v T2 opposition since the last men's World Cup: England- 1 Wales- 1 France- 1 Ireland- 3 Italy- 3 Scotland- 9 Scotland have played the same number of games v T2 opposition as the rest of the Six Nations put together.

Schoey has 100% just asked her how her brother is "No not that one, the other one"

Well that’s quite the arrogant headline.

The British media digs its own grave with this nonsense. Papers like Mail can continue with this bullshit for maybe another ten years. But eventually their current readers will die & there will be nobody to replace them as younger generations are so alienated. The dumbest financial model imaginable.

Genuinely wild that people would leave a party to join a mailing list

Quick, somebody use it before Jello Biafra does

What can we do personally to reduce emissions? #fuckcars they are literally killing the planet...

from my lunch today; "the trouble is not so much AI making you more productive, but that it's tripling the output of the biggest f***ing idiot where you work"

First nuclear waste, now this.

No further questions. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

“Highly Evolved” by The Vines. An album so wretched, I took it back to the shop. Piss poor landfill indie hyped beyond reason by NME.

You’re laughing? Rangers* season is ruined again and Murdo Fraser is sad and you’re laughing?!? 🤭

As an aside, I will buy any journalist a drink of their choice if they ask the Home Secretary whether she supports these powers being used to ban protests outside migrant hotels.

These monsters always look ridiculous but when you realise they’re the same size as a camping pod with 3 beds and an en-suite 🤷‍♂️

The difference between a million pounds and a billion pounds is that if you work very hard for many years you can earn a million pounds. To get a billion pounds you have to steal it from other people who work.

Top episode about Led Zeppelin. Could possibly be summed up with this...

Doing the West Highland Way again. Remembering how much the Inversnaid Hotel are dicks again 🙄

whoa. Every single one of the Sinclair advert buyers on this list is automotive or automotive related (insurance). That is one aspect of the power in our society held by car companies that I haven't seen studied enough.

With all the GWAR chat, remembering the time the po faced moral arbitrators in the Scottish Sunday Mail happily took money for the gig advert while doing the “Ban this sick filth” article. Standard. (Mid 90s).

Keep using paper straws and make sure you separate your rubbish, everyone!

One of several reasons why the answer can't just be replacing internal combustion engine cars one-for-one with electric cars. The problem with cars isn't limited to emissions.

We should have never traded physical media (CDs, DVDs, cassettes) for the convenience of streaming and digital distribution. Now we don't own anything and media preservation is at the mercy of corporations ie completely fucked

More heavys, less mid IPAs, please!

We need to bring this back. Instead of "You can't do that! That's Hate Speech."

Sensible folk: Cycling is an egalitarian mode of transport, accessible to most. Graun: No, you must cut about like Robocop with hunners of quid worth of daft gear.
