Awful. Looks like it isn't anywhere near under control either. Could spread to the likes of Blue Lagoon which wouldn't help.

Seriously, how has it gone from a single unit to destroying an entire corner of the city? And it's still going?
In a city known for its fires, this looks like it's on a whole other level. Genuinely can't believe how bad this is.
Re the Guardian's Louis Theroux int: I went off LT a wee while ago after sensing a mocking, superior tone behind his supposedly naive approach to documentaries. Couldn't shake the feeling he felt above the topic and the people he was investigating. Think that comes across in this interview too.
This coming from the guy behind Inside Out and Soul, the two weirdest films in Pixar's library, is particularly depressing. Felt as if he was pushing the studio further into what it could be, but now he's advocating for colouring inside the lines.
Can’t find the words for the David Byrne show we’re just home from. Haven’t seen anything like it, haven’t felt anything like it at a concert before. He’s in a category of one. Will remember it for the rest of my life.
Last RT: convinced Chalamet knows he’s not winning Best Actor and is leaning into it
That clip of Timothee Chalamet being like “no one watches the opera or ballet” is wild and I am dying over every ballet and opera acct (correctly) being like “we’ve been here for hundreds of years before you and we’ll be here for hundreds of years after you” lmao
These new Scrubs episodes are freaky. They feel like discovering lost episodes of an old favourite show, except they’re new and just as good and exactly what you want them to be. I’ve no idea how they’ve done it this well!
@samkeyse.bsky.social on it with the paparazzi shots 📸
Photo of a cinema screen and two people sat chatting in front of us, myself and director Jon Asp.
Took part in my first ever post-film Q&A with a director. Enjoyed chatting with Jon Asp about all things Being Bo Widerberg.
Thanks to @chriskumar.bsky.social and the whole GFF team. Feeling extremely grateful and lucky.
Does this mean I’ve made it on TikTok
Managing to programme Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie for @glasgowfilmfest will forever go down as a core festival memory. Two sold out screenings in our 400 seater screen, electric atmosphere, the cheers, the laughter and the applause is what it’s all about
That was a riot, so good to see it with a packed crowd too, so much fun!
The Mad Max Fury Road of comedy films
People keep coming in! Where are they gonna sit! hahah
First time having to queue outside to get into the GFT for Nirvanna The Band The Film The Movie. Don’t know anything about it but feels like we’ve got the hottest ticket of the festival.
I’m not sure I understand the justification for bleeping ‘free Palestine’. What rule is it breaking and in what way does bleeping it not look like political censorship?
And the opening gala was about a neighbourhood rallying around two men targeted by a dawn raid who were locked in a van all day. Which voices are we hearing and whose are drowned out?
Theme emerging at the Glasgow Film Festival of unheard voices. In We Believe You, it's kids in child court proceedings, in The Last Viking, it's people with dissociative identity disorder (although, absurdly so), and in Sundays, it's an adolescent caught between warring family members.
It’s a gut-punch to realise others aren’t pretending to be decent people; they just are. As loud as they seem, online communities of far-right rage are niche in the grand scheme. But we need to keep showing up to stop them.
Reform’s voters are wounded because we haven’t forgotten their brand of hatred is a stain on civil society, historically and today. They genuinely believe everyone thinks the way they do.
Opinions held by people in Reform were until very recent history considered unacceptable. Losing is a reminder that they still are. Everyday people came out and voted to stop a fascist party.
The far-right get so wound up when they lose these days because they thought they had it in the bag. Every institution is on their side: the news is obsessed with them, algorithms favour them, legions of their bots flood digital spaces.

Fresh from its UK premiere last night, my review of Everybody to Kenmure Street at @loudandclearrvs.bsky.social:

Must be the 2000s, can’t wait for the end of the day to watch a new episode of Scrubs
Electric night at the Glasgow Film Festival’s opening gala. Longest standing ovation I’ve been part of for the rousing Everybody to Kenmure Street.
There has to be a mass movement of refusal to pay obscene ticket prices, otherwise live music becomes an exclusive hangout for the upper classes.
Live music at a certain level has been becoming more and more inaccessible for a while. It’s there now. One of the greatest ways of bringing people together has slammed the door on everyone but the wealthy.
