For Glasgow Film Festival I filmed and put together @markdonaldson.bsky.socialβs interview with documentary maker Felipe Bustos Sierra about telling the story of Kenmure Street, why itβs an important story to keep alive and how Americans have reacted to it

New fear unlocked! Stairs! But for mums!
I saw Everybody to Kennure Street today. I highly recommend to everyone in the world and its future.
An old comic style of a woman looking out her window at a city skyline. The bubble says, βWhat a stupid time to be alive.β
βJustice may yet be hard-won, but the modus operandi of contempt and powerlessness which the powerful rely on to sustain their corruptions has been exposed.β
Excellent and inspirational column from @hardeepmatharu.bsky.social
A crypto investor just donated Β£9 million to the Reform Party. Right now, billionaires can pour unlimited money into our elections, effectively buying our democracy. Think that's wrong? Add your name to call for a cap on donations today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...
Nice to know businesses with crazy spelled names isnβt a modern thing.

Hey @heriotwattuni.bsky.social ! Why is it impossible to contact your accounts payable team? I can see that paying freelancers is a bit troublesome for you. A phone number (not an email address that's ignored) would be greatly appreciated! www.justanswer.co.uk/law/s1ytu-ex...
MTV is officially ending all of its music channels.
In honour of that, whatβs your favourite music video?
It has to be the one that inspired me and my brothers to pick up a camera, make a dummy called βFormaggioβ and hurl it down the stairs.

Ooh!
I was about to smugly show off my childhood cinema and claim itβs still going, but in writing this post Iβve learned that actually it was sold to tiger woods to turn into some golf bar π’ (itβs St Andrews after all)

So glad @herring1967.bsky.social 's substack tuned me into this masterpiece 'home movie' retelling of The Princess Bride. Watching it now, it feels like a love letter to Reiner. Bryan Cranston vs Javier Bardem, and Patton Oswalt vs Jon Hamm are stupid good www.youtube.com/watch?v=29s1...
When the orange hoodlum shuffles off to the underworld we should all celebrate by watching our fav Rob Reiner movie.
Oh god, how awful!
This is all the good feels you need today. Watch the live stream till 10pm. Never not have the song in your head! How longβ¦ has this been going onβ¦
This is particularly poignant from this playwright: βWe have a storytelling crisis in our nation. Weβre struggling to imagine the next chapter of our national lifeβ¦. we fall back on to nostalgic old stories, rather than have the capacity to imagine stories for the next generation.β
My Apple Music top songs of the year looks suspiciously like my 5 year oldβs fav songs. Only one of mine broke into the top 15. But can you guess which one?
Introduce yourself with 5 concerts youβve seen:
Patti Smith
Beastie Boys
Buena Vista Social Club
BB King
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Had a blast at the Inside No.9 stage show last night. Even when you expected the unexpected they managed to make me jump out of my seat. Go see it!
I was there. You made a fantastic decision!

This is full of mildly astonishing revelations about right-wing influence at the BBC, but foremost among them is the fact that he was advised that writing for the New Statesman was effectively unacceptable but doing so for the Spectator was fine - indeed, advisable. I am flabbergasted.
Objections to this east end entrance to the necropolis seem ott to me. βItβll be the end of it!!β π€ Do I detect some snobbery about letting in the east end folk? Weβre not all prostitutes and junkies honestly. And already hemmed in by the hospital and the motorway. Gies peace to take a walk!
