That feels exceptionally passive aggressive

Any time soon they'll be embracing 15 minute cities

Oh that’s an iconic and historic bridge

Donald J Trump and Vladimir Putin are going to have long and healthy lives, don’t you agree?

Kinda ironic that I posted this just half an hour after yet another fire took out yet another historic building. Glasgow is safe but the managed decline is becoming less managed

The station itself is separate and didn’t catch fire, I don’t think it’s as bad as it looked

Making conversion therapy the official NHS policy for trans youth

I hope this leads to politicians taking urban planning in Glasgow seriously. You can’t separate the historic buildings disappearing from the hollowing out of high streets or the extortionate price of buses anymore

A screenshot from the National of the live updates of the fire, it is behind a paywall.

To balance out, the national’s coverage is even worse

It took the BBC six hours to notice it was a major news story, ~two million people without trains

wait til the disruption starts hitting euston trains tomorrow, then we'll hear about it

not to be all “if this is were in London” but if this were Kings Cross- which has similar levels of traffic and history- it would absolutely be all over everyone’s news

I’m also really angry that the BBC didn’t start their live coverage until 9:55, this is a massive fire, visible all across one of the largest cities in the country, shutting off transport for over 2m people, not a side story!

Ban vape shops, ban vapes

I think this deserves at least as much sustained attention from US media as Claudine Gay's dissertation

The main point is closed shops and it’s not as busy as it was, but the “safe” line really stood out for just how blatantly false it was

Screenshot with text reading “In 2005, the World Health Organization dubbed Glasgow the "murder capital of Europe." There had been 83 homicides the previous year in the Glasgow region, where gangs were known for their booze-and-blades culture.”

I mean come on, the city isn’t perfect but you can’t say “things were better 20 years ago” when number of murders has fallen 85% in that time

Scottish Labour putting out comms talking about people not feeling safe in Glasgow city centre just feels off. You can’t say the former murder capital of Europe isn’t what it used to be, it’s so much better!

This feels like an exceptionally subtle slur

It got worse as soon as I took the photo

I keep thinking I’m getting better at this then lose patience and mess it up

Easier when you don’t have 50 pairs of black socks honestly

This is my talent, I can pick pairs of black socks out a lineup of black socks

Aside from the obvious part of the name, why are we saying “anti-Muslim hostility” and not Islamophobia? (mostly rhetorical)

How

I got a scam calling as I was debating whether it would be committing to the bit too much to go see Jane McDonald live in HMV, he’s trying to insist he’s from EE but I tell him what I’m thinking and ask his opinion, he says “in my opinion” and then hangs up, rude if you ask me

Challenge for those who are very confident that my secondary school maths calculator isn't conscious: Explain how human consciousness works.

Good morning Ben

A selfie of me outside, shielding my eyes from the very bright sun

A screenshot showing my run time, 24m 7s for 5.01km

It may be cold but it’s so sunny I can only conclude that spring is still on, winter is dead
