Did we ever have any wanted visitors? This is awful sad, far too young. Loved this track, but first I sought out on hearing the news was What - a banger, with a great video.

One of the best and quietly profound gigs I've ever been at.

Maryhill in Glasgow is drenched with them. Every street around high rise blocks where a ton of migrants are housed (including my street). It's despicable

Great episode. Re the welfare cuts/acute health crisis we're experiencing, nobody mentions austerity. Data shows by 2019, we were already dying/getting very sick as a direct result. Highly recommend Social Murder, a book by academic colleagues David Walsh& Gerry McCartney from Uni of Glasgow.

Hmmmmmmmm 😕

Done, entirely because "bunnies do not judge the hand that boops them". Keep up the terrific work.

Oh that's fantastic, love a nice map - ta!

Lovely! I've snaffled an online ticket - will share to interested pals.

Data centres require huge amounts of water to stay cool. I can't remember which paper I read recently, but it estimated every single AI email takes a 500ml bottle of water to cool the system. Amazon have/are trying to buy entire annual output from a Scottish reservoir for it's UK data centres

I have two cats who have been absolute rocks through hell and high water - I know how important the furry friends are. Fingers crossed for you ...

That's absolutely rotten, I'm so sorry. Fingers crossed for a swift recovery and normal service resumed

What a lovely piece. Lest we forget!

This always does my head in especially as someone with permanent cog-fog - I have to refer to printed instructions every single increase because I can't retain the info. So this is revolutionary for me! Thank you!

I bloomin will 😉

I hadn't noticed that!

I love that photo of you both!

Crypto mentuoned in a podcast this morning in that BRICs are (is?) discussing using electronic tokens as currency within their trading agreements and thought, aha, THAT'S what Trump is angling for, boosting crypto (which he's already lucratively milked). I've never watched Mr Robot though 😬

A plump black and white cat sitting in an oblong box of sunshine, he is glancing down to his right, his whiskers shining

Just a boy in a beam with twinkly whiskers.

Can any paleographers help me out with the name of this street? Located in Govan, Glasgow 1871 - ta!

Baby steps! You'll be grand!

Yep, at my pool the morning hours are very quiet. Women only is perfect. It takes real courage - it shouldn't but it does - so you should be so proud of going for it!

I'm a bit chubby and I only have one boob which made me feel very awkward at first. But I'm also myopic so without my specs I can't see if anyone is gawking. I go at 10am, when the school run mums and pre-work athletes are gone. It's quiet. I feel strong in the water, it's good for my wonky body.

We battered past that point over a decade ago 🙄

Doesn't seem to be. There's talk of a class action in the States but we don't have that option here. It's completely illegal in the UK but I guess hard to stop it when it's happening on a global scale ☹️

So frustrating when your hard work is just hijacked for someone else's profit 😫

Eight of my academic publications scalped - thieving expletive sods

FFS at least four of my papers on here. Hope there is going to be an authors’ class action against these thieving bar stewards

In her pit. A fiery one.

ScotGov obviously 😊

Paid employment. Cutting it does nothing to 'encourage' folk back to work, in fact it will do the opposite. The illogicality of the govt going after it really rips my knitting. In Scotland it's called ADP and likely ScotGiv will mitigate any cut to it up here, as it does two child/bedroom tax
