Love being a crutches user, getting a train home and folk still dumping their bags on the accessible seats. Come on you dicks. Have some shame.

Calling for the pausing of a decision of pausing because serious MP.
Beaten by Sarwar, Lennon could have been much more of a thorn in his side. Instead she served pretty loyally and with diligence. You'd expect that to earn her some credit amongst her colleagues but they simply cannot park their transphobia or conservatism. www.thenational.scot/news/2642961...
Scottish Labour leadership race 'reeks of misogyny', only female candidate says

As part of my last surgery, I got to speak with a psychologist to support recovery and manage the whole situation. In a shocking development, I also came away with an unwritten autism diagnosis. Sources close to the situation, namely, everyone who has ever met me, has declined to express surprise.
Yeah, regretfully the legitimacy of anything else said in this thread is put to rest by this ignorant, silly, and baitable post.

Scotrail, I love yous but only yous could create a new app that's buggier and takes 4x as long to buy and activate a ticket than your old app.
Fully relate to the Odyssey because when @ulycia.bsky.social asks me to do something it could take me 10 plus years and I'd probably go via Nairn.
After a month confined to either a ward or my living room post surgery, it's genuinely good to be back in the city. Nice buzz about the air re the games. *
PfG in September. Would very much appreciate radical action on preventing and fighting wildfires, treating them as the national crisis they are. Starting with beefing up the SFRS and banning disposable BBQs. No justification for them.
SNP hat off for a second, Sarwar led Labour far into both social and economic conservatism that justified a nastier, more unkind form of politics in Holyrood and the media. Like Leonard before, it would be nice to have an opposition leader who actually stands up for LGBTQ+ folk.
Still thinking about the Menu and how we need more films about burning the rich.
MAGA-approved casting for The Odyssey: The Bard - Joe Rogan Odysseus - Chris Pratt Penelope - Gal Gadot Calypso - Drea de Matteo Antinous - Conor McGregor Agamemnon - Mel Gibson Menalaus - Stone Cold Steve Austin Helen of Troy - Sydney Sweeney Telemachus - Yair Netanyahu in his acting debut
I say this as gently as I can, but your feelings are not really important here when the Cairngorms are on fire.
The National@scotnational.bsky.social · 2w agoTelling people that wanting their neighbour to keep their job makes them right-wing is insulting to a region that has backed the left's cause for longer than most of its critics have been alive, writes Luke Buchanan ✍️ Read more: www.thenational.scot/politi...
Ironic that Lord Anas has been appointed as minister for trade as the only thing he's traded is his credibility for a lordship.
Discovering that Sears has a location 15 minutes away from the GRI is making this admission very bearable.
My Glasgow Pride plans have been cancelled due to an unexpected clash with being considerably unwell. Current itinerary: hospital bed, high doses of IV antibiotics, dramatic sighing, and living vicariously through everyone’s photos. Bi and a bit bitter about it. 💖💜💙

So. Back in hospital for two nights. Probs in for 3 more. The thing that makes no sense is the coffee/toast round at 9pm each evening. Am I the only one who questions why people can't sleep in hospital if domestics are giving out two spoons of instant at a place where you can do no exercise?
Think the real question is who's funding Binfaces' seriously upgraded costume game? Recalling a few years back when the get up was more plastic and ill equipped than first time cosplayers getting off at Exhibition Centre.
it's just open season on people with adhd now people with adhd as their main condition make up 2.5% of pip claims so it's hardly the explosion they're making it out also note: main, not sole, condition. adhd pip claim success rates are 43% - you usually have to have a comorbid condition to succeed
The increasingly tedious experience of every neighbour and npc asking why you're in crutches when you don't really have a simple answer.
Most happy to get home day 10 or so post op. Apologies if I've left you on read the last few days, I'm enjoying reminding myself what air tastes like.
Michael G@indymichaelg.bsky.social · last mo.Day 7 inpatient at the GRI and it remains one of the weirdest hospitals. Sure there's a service you're looking for but you must speak the riddle three to the troll guardian on corridor 4 by castle street entrance to access said service and everyone just thinks it's normal.

Very much hope the party doesn’t learn the lessons of losing one seat to the Tories faster than it learns the lessons of losing 3 ministers (and one more constituency) to the Greens and Lib Dems last month.

The word "complexities" doing a lot of heavy lifting when what we all know is sheer cowardice.
Paul Brand@paulbrand.bsky.social · 2mo agoEXCL: Hearing from multiple sources tonight that the government is moving at pace to announce the long-promised ban on so-called conversion therapy in the coming days. The ban was first pledged by Theresa May but got caught up in complexities with regards to gender identity.
If the independence movement had the militancy of the Scottish political press we'd be independent by now. *
