A timely bit of good news.

Since Naismith was sacked we've had 25 games to close a 6 point gap on the sixth club. We failed to do so with zero goals scored in our final pre split fixtures.
That said Europe via the League was lost last week only a miracle (or 2) in the cup can save the season.

No Critchley would be the biggest boost , I'm not even joking.

Dundee win at Easter Road tomorrow and the battle for the play off spot begins. More must wins!

Last home game of the season for me, Hearts blunt in attack. League over ,top or bottom six who cares? Final game for me is the semi a defeat and Critchley along the many under performing players can GTF.
On the bright side I will be in France from April 30th for 7 weeks. Referees!!

Only four Labour MSPs bothered to turn up to a Holyrood debate on the cost of living crisis.

Just a reminder that the German courts have ordered Musk to hand over X data pertaining to the most recent German elections in regards to election interference specifically.

This needs to be covered more than it is.

It's a huge red flag.

This is giving me "look how much money Hearts can make when we scud Petrocub" vibes.

To Labour voters in Scotland:
Scotland produced the second highest amount of oil in N.
West Europe (behind Norway).
Belgium produced zero oil.
Scotland’s only oil refinery is closing.
Belgium has 4 oil refineries and the Labour Gov are paying them £600m to open a 5th.
Why do you vote Labour?

The Scottish Animal Welfare Commission has said cats present a threat to wild animals & set out proposals to protect wildlife in a report to ScotGov. The mendacious British nationalist media spins this into - The SNP considers banning your pet cat. This is how trust is lost in the media.

Sadly, the BBC chose to report this by saying that Scotland won’t actually have eradicated child poverty by 2029 and are therefore failing, despite doing more to help than the rest of the UK.

Hmmm.

I wonder what the rest of the world is saying about us now. Berlin newspaper.

To be fair they have to justify Pat Bonner's retainer. I missed it all thankfully.

The 'Gulf of America' is that the financial distance between the billionaires and everyone else in America?

I'm writing this with a heavy heart and no small amount of fear. As a former X (formerly Twitter) employee on an H1B visa, I can't reveal my identity without risking everything, but I can't stay silent any longer about what I saw and was made to do. When Elon Musk took over, everything changed. What started as a social media company became something much darker. I was part of a team that was directly ordered to manipulate Twitter's systems to influence the 2024 US presidential election. It wasn't subtle, and it wasn't ethical. We completely changed how the algorithm worked, pushing pro-Trump and right-wing posts to the top of people's feeds. To make it look balanced, we also boosted some left-wing critics of Democrats, but it was all carefully calculated. These changes didn't just affect Americans - they impacted users worldwide. One of the most disturbing things we did was create thousands of fake accounts using advanced AI systems called Grok and Eliza. These accounts looked completely real and pushed political messages that spread like wildfire. Havn't you noticed they all disappeared? Like magic. We also knowingly allowed foreign governments to manipulate the platform. State-backed groups from Israel, Iran, and Russia were running their own influence campaigns, and because their goals aligned with ours, we looked the other way. Even when they clearly broke the rules, we didn't stop them.

Perhaps the most unethical part was how we manufactured news stories. One team would write completely fake articles, while another team would artificially boost their engagement metrics to make them go viral. We specifically targeted certain groups of people, knowing exactly how to manipulate their views and emotions. The moderation team became a tool for our agenda. We systematically silenced anyone who got in our way, enforcing the rules when it suited us and ignoring them when it didn't. Elon Musk himself was deeply involved in these decisions, often joking about being "Black Hat MAGA." What started as US election interference has now spread to other countries. We're currently doing the same thing in Germany and other European nations. The damage we've done is immeasurable, and I don't know if it can ever be fixed. People don't know what's real anymore, and that's exactly what we wanted. The pilot program for the Eliza AI Agent, was election interference. Eliza was release officially in October of 2024, but we had access to it before then thanks to Marc Andreessen. I'm terrified to be writing this, but I had to speak up. I just hope that someone with the power to do something about this sees this letter. You'll know what i’m saying is the truth by Elon's actions to the news someone spoke out. For more evidence look at the docs of Eliza AI Agent software. We left bread crumbs. Yours sincerely, A former employee who can't sleep at night.

Helpful!

It's been quite something to watch supposedly 'patriotic' British newspapers actively cheerleading on a foreign administration that is openly working against our interests.

I'm happy to give Dhanda until the season before I lump him in with the other two. However so far you're correct.

I mean, that's outstanding.

Facts are dead. Cooool.

And you thought the tabloid press was bad? Get ready for a biblical flood of moronic rubbish in 2025… courtesy of an imploding America.

No further comment needed.

Pre match at Dingwall , I thought the team looked weak, we performed well for 95 minutes , so what do i know?. Today I would have started with same line up that began in Dingwall. If Motherwell have any pacy forwards up against Halkett I'd be concerned.

Will Elton have a work permit visa in time for the Motherwell game?

PHD, surely?

Boy on Kickback suggested Jock the Jambo, cheered me up in these dark times.

Shameful from Halkett and Gordon gifting them goals. Would have taken a draw at KO but not when 2 up after 96 minutes. Pitiful ,yet again.

Wasn't confident before, even less so now.

However you apportion the blame I'm dreading Ross County away.
