The greatest antifascist ally in the UK is the Grim Reaper.

THAT'S WHY YOU BRING ON DARCY FUCKING GRAHAM

Quite restrained from the Mail today, just 15 main pages on Andrew, plus some extra comment later in the paper. I've seen them do more on Hitler.

Wow, Farage *really* doesn't like it when people ask questions about the expensive private education of every single one of his top team, does he... it would be *such a shame* if people were to share this widely... bsky.app/profile/did:...

Henry Arundell is really good at the bit of rugby where you have the ball and run towards the tryline. Unfortunately there are other bits to rugby.

6N: No Edinburgh players in Scotland XV for England clash In a two club system this says more about where we currently are as a club than any league table, etc. If we aren't supplying players to the national side, then what are we here for? Damning #rugby www.theoffsideline.com/6n-no-edinbu...

It's all rightwingers have got, the moment that anyone seriously challenges the shit they're spouting. Problem is, that's going to be a rarity as long as most British current affairs broadcasting is some breathless variant of "Aren't racists exciting?"

🧵 Ace thread by Ranty. Free parking is like homeopathy for ailing town centres. Despite all the evidence many think it will work.

There are no immutable rules keeping streets like this in Europe. Our urban environment is a reflection of what we commit to build. We don't have to let cars sterilize our landscape. It's a choice.

Bradford, West Yorkshire. 2026.

“OUR city isn’t [insert name of a much more livable & successful city here].” Trust me, we know that. It’s abundantly obvious that you’re not that city. That city made, and continues to make, much better choices with fewer excuses. The real question is, do you want YOUR city to be better or not?

I don't think I could take one of the most dominant club teams in Europe and make them that shit if it was my stated intention. Gregor Townsend really is a generational talent in that regard

Lads it's not losing to Italy that decides whether a coach stays or goes anymore. It's losing to Wales.

Thoughtful of the Six Nations to move a game to avoid a clash with The Winter Olympics opening ceremony. Can you imagine football doing that? “NO, YOU MUST BOW AT THE MAJESTY OF OUR RATHER DULL GAME WHERE FOLK GUDDLE ABOUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PITCH FOR 90 MINUTES!”

Outsourcing means you get the absolute minimum to fulfil the contract. That means that no-one gives a shit about doing a job properly or putting in the proper effort. "That's enough, it'll do" - that's the mantra of outsourcing. No wonder the county's infrastructure is crumbling.

OF COURSE the Six Nations on STV is sponsored by a horrible Wankpanzer 🙄

While we wait for World Cup jerseys, let's take a minute for Haiti's Winter Olympic uniforms 🇭🇹 A work of art 😍

Congestion charges could be brought in for drivers entering #Edinburgh city centre. "But it was rejected 21 years ago" is hardly a sound argument for anything. Plus Miles Briggs MSP is 'really concerned', so it must be a good thing. news.stv.tv/east-central...

It's hard to cause a disruption when the reaction was almost unanimously, "thank fuck for that, could they take him sooner?"

Anas Sarwar being rude to a woman for daring to ask him questions about his ongoing persecution of trans women. Scottish Labour, this is your guy. He represents you. You cannot tell LGBT+ voters you disagree with him and do not share his views and then expect us to vote for him. Be serious.

As a Scotland rugby fan it's infuriating the the SRU continue to treat our awesome women's team like crap. Equally frustrating that they keep getting away with it without consequences. Hard to see what to do as fans? Don't pay to support them seems like a poor option. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-...

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

It's fascinating that medics are making the effort to switch to anaesthetics with less greenhouse effect while people are driving alone in SUVs

That's Labour kicking off Scotland's 2026 anti-trans election in the paper that campaigned to keep Section 28.

A lovely warm hug of a book.

you can tell the AI revolution is going well because every CEO is begging you to use it in the same tone as the government asking good citizens to buy war bonds in the 40s

These can both be true: The Grammy’s don’t have the first clue about metal. Turnstile are far superior to any of the other nominations in that category 🤷‍♂️

No organisation existing solely to eliminate trans people should be a charity. #DeregisterSexMatters

Pleased to announce I've been hired to do the marketing for this campaign

I want an album if black metal covers of show tunes and show tune arrangements of black metal classics.

Keep this to show to your grandchildren when they ask why the mainstream media died

Not one mention of climate change or resilience in this report.

People drove by. "Oh no! Is everyone okay?" "It's an ICE vehicle" Laughter erupts and people got out to take photos.

It’s great that they did a major update on the Met Office app and now it looks like shite and gives you an inaccurate wind speed. Cheers lads.

Reminder that it wasn't just right-wing columnists bigging up Trump after the 2024 election win. Anas Sarwar too was saying how crucial it was to put Scottish business links ahead of silly political concerns Somehow I doubt he will want this messaging in election flyers now

“I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of peace"

Ban boomers from social media before teens.

It's time for my Alexander O'Neal joke again, gang! *clears throat* Alexander O'Neal once had to finish with his girlfriend because she was utterly obsessed with measuring and recording the details of various rodents. ALL SHE DID WAS CRITTER-SIZE. #TotP

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.

If you don't want to be exposed to US government Bluesky accounts, there is a block list you can add that will handle it for you. They added ICE before I even knew they came here. 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

Perhaps the most pressing question following that contract extension is whether the careers of those young & talented Edinburgh players, such as Douglas, Patterson, and OBL, will survive two more years of brutally poor coaching?

While Robert Jenrick is getting most of the attention, don’t miss that today a Reform staff member grabbed a journalist in Scotland to try and get them to stop asking questions. This is what we’re dealing with www.itv.com/watch/news/w...

Oh, Edinburgh 😞

I feel seen.

"If you don't allow parking on the pavement, parked cars will have to block the road!" is just shifting the externalities of the fundamental problem - that there are too many cars - onto pedestrians, and particularly onto disabled pedestrians. If there's not space to pass, there's not space to park.

"The enemy of the state is wine moms" is not uh.. well it's not tactically brilliant

‘If a drug boasted such benefits [as the arts] governments would be pouring billions into it. Instead, funding has been slashed across the culture sector.’ www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Accurate.

If we're going to ban social media and mobile phones for kids, then we need to ban Facebook and the Daily Mail for boomers. For the exact same fucking reasons.
