Union street fire: support Haus of Hair
Last month, my wonderful hairdresser and friend Gemma left her job to fulfil her dream of starting her own salon with fellow stylist Aimee.

My hairdresser and friend opened her business last week. Tonight it burned to the ground. This is devastating.
I’ve set up a fundraiser. If you haven’t done anything for international women’s day yet, here’s a chance to support a women-run business in need: www.paypal.com/pools/c/9nhn...

devising a new social media platform where you get three energy to spend every turn, posts can attack or defend, and the goal of the platform is slightly more obviously about defeating other commenters than here

A handicap blue and white painted sign on the asphalt of a parking space. The symbols are meant to be a pregnant women and a baby stroller, but it doesn't look like that. It looks like pac man being killed with scissors next to a dancer

Bloody hell, giving extensive notes on movies like this when they're nearly finished is an inept way to work. If there's a type of movie where you really need to nail your script down before production starts, it's this. And if you make creative decisions you should stick by them.

This is no longer about saving the corner building. It's lost. All the SFRS can do is try to prevent what would be a catastrophic spread to Glasgow Central Station.

Eating soup while drunk is fascinating because it either means you are at the absolute lowest point in your existence, or at a wedding

Something that I think about less than I should but more than never is how the media backdrop to my toddlers lives is just full of this stuff that’s made by toxic characters, largely men, who write fantasy worlds for kids while being unable to conceptualise women as people or themselves as predators

an image shows a rene magritte painting of two large apples on the ground with a cloudy blue sky background, the apples have each on a blue face mask and a red face mask like the teenage mutant ninja turtles

The immediacy of the single always suited the weeklies. Following the development of a new artist across their early singles was part of what made the papers exciting to read. Plus indie labels liked singles, and the weeklies eventually found their natural constituency there.

My daughter is making zero waste jewellery from offcuts from 3D printing. These pizza earrings are really fun!
Here’s a link to her depop site if you like them

Yeah, it seems like US rockists think being a great singles band basically doesn't count for anything, it doesn't register as a meaningful achievement.

I don't often use it myself, but that's because I still record stuff so I can flick through the ads. But when I have used it lately it's been fine. They improved it a lot around the time they dropped the All4 name.

St. Vincent - Birth In Reverse
Listen to Birth In Reverse on TIDAL
#THETENX5 Day 33
"Birth in Reverse" by St Vincent (2013)
Annie Clark's sonic palette has broadened over the years, which is generally a good thing, but it means her superb guitar work has become less prominent. This track is a reminder of just how good she is.

It used to be a binfire but I find it pretty much fine now, and YouTube shoves so many ads at you these days there isn't even much difference on that score.

Women working at a record plant, checking and bagging the A Hard Day's Night album by The Beatles.
I love it when The Beatles turn up randomly.

There really is nothing like the refreshing breath of self righteousness when there’s calls to boycott something you wouldn’t touch if your life depended on it.

Screenshot of the photo at the top of an article in Dazed magazine. “Is it finally time to boycott ChatGPT?” It shows a young woman with a blue bob looking annoyed at a computer
This reminds me of when I gave up encouraging vulnerable people to crossbow public figures for Lent.

On my travels and talking to Tories and Reform voters. I’ve discovered what they mean by “woke” and how it varies from what us on the left think it means: they think it means humourlessly earnest. Once you know that, combating it is easy.

Call me crazy but I think someone is a lot more likely to need extensive therapy if their sexuality is treated as something to be hidden rather than if they see a gay person exists.

This quote isnt just out of touch or disappointing, its fucking dark. Gay people are not a conversation parents need to have with their kids? Knowing gay people exist doesnt require therapy??
Any parents who thinks that way needs to have their kids removed ASAP. Get in a volcano, Pete.

According to Severin Films, only Mr Jolly Lives Next Door survives on original film and could therefore be rescanned. The rest of the Comic Strip films - including the theatrical releases - are SD videotape only.
Anyone with access to Channel 4's archives want to confirm this?
