I do, but I refuse to believe it. Trade deals, tariffs, special relationships - it's all just so small compared to international security. And I know I am oversimplifying, but we can not just tiptoe around bullies anymore, East or West.

I had a real visceral reaction to the Oval Office spectacle last night.

I am a product of the post-Cold War geopolitical order. To see it crumbling like this is filling me with utter dread.

I got to watch three films at the weekend, for the first time in months.

Behind the Lighted Stage - a Rush documentary that is more human than most.

Longlegs - unsettling and bizarre, but mostly enjoyable.

My Old Ass - so effortlessly good that I know it will stick with me for a long time.

A good day to be outside in Aberdeenshire, for a change. Strong little legs up a slightly snowy Mither Tap.
