Shocked worker spots deer on empty Buchanan Street during lockdown A shocked city centre worker spotted a lone deer on the once busy shopping street.

... found a link to a report on that at the time: www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/shocked...

During the pandemic and the height of lockdown there were ones sighted on Buchanan Street that they thought had ventured out from the Necropolis!

They say they are in the Necropolis too. But never seen them there. Have you?

A screenshot of an Android app. Text: ▲ Nearby Glasses Smart Glasses are probably nearby Device: Unknown RSSI: -42 dBm Reason: Meta Company ID (0x058E) Company: Meta Platforms, Inc. This app notifies you when smart glasses are nearby. It uses company identificators in the Bluetooth data sent out by these. Therefore, there likely are false positives (e.g. from VR headsets). Hence, please proceed with caution when approaching a person nearby wearing glasses. They might just be regular glasses, despite this app's warning.

I hope it's useful for someone.

It's also downloadable outside the Play Store. iOS port is in the making

@scottwortley.bsky.social FYI :-)

It all looked yellow to me but there might be white in there!

Thanks. Looks like it now I have googled images. Thought the beak looked rather strange which might be particular to this one bird!

@chrisdaleoxford.bsky.social Can you identify this bird? - Saw it in Glasgow yesterday and unsure what it is. Quite big and looks as though only its lower bill is yellow?

BBC Verify have been kept busy today. Fake News from Trump on Windfarms, NATO and Greenland to name but three.

Thanks for adding a comment :-)

LinkedIn Legal Marketing: Vanity v Sanity LinkedIn Legal Marketing circles in the UK have been awash this week with 'influencer' humble brags. See Sanity over Vanity.

@juliansummerhayes.bsky.social I felt compelled to blog about that today: thetimeblawg.com/2026/01/18/l...

Surely no one ever has said we will tariff you until you let us take another country. The boot should be on the other foot: If you invade that country we will sanction you like you have never been sactioned before. Perhaps sanctions should be imposed unless and until that threat is removed?

Think this is sensible. The relentless clatter on LinkedIn about legal 'influencers' is driving me in the same direction.

Aphoristic Intelligence Beats Artificial Intelligence It’s not just okay for some things in life to be hard—it’s essential.

“At a time when polarization is so amped up, aphorisms can serve as psychological circuit breakers, interrupting our comfortable assumptions and prodding us to open our minds, unclench our fists, and think for ourselves,” James Geary argues:

Just like they didn't want us calling "hallucinations", "hallucinations".

And as always if you are in Glasgow and have time do get in touch. Happy New Year!

Scotland usually is on a good day ;-) HNY to you Julian when it comes.

Yesterday's walk. Was a beautiful day for it! #Scotland
