At the start of April, we announced new Standard Play Contract Rates for playwrights in Scotland, negotiated with our friends at the Federation of Scottish Theatre. These went into effect immediately, and more info can be found through the link in our bio.

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.

We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.

Please stand by for more.

It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.

The myth of selling your soul for power and wealth is probably based on the fact that so many wealthy, powerful individuals are so devoid of compassion, imagination or appreciation of art as anything other than an investment that they genuinely seem to have no soul.

BBC Radio 4 Extra - The Marx Brothers' Flywheel, Shyster and Flywheel, Series 3, Episode 3 The shady lawyer starts a bus tour of New York. The Marx Brothers radio show recreated.

If you need a healthy dose of sanity in these insane times, BBC Radio 4 Extra are repeating our Marx Brothers re-creations “Flywheel, Shyster & Flywheel”. I believe you can listen live from anywhere on the planet but can only stream them on catch up in the UK.

Watched the last two episodes of The Other Bennet Sister and it was bloody lovely. Then read that Hungary has voted out Orban. Pretty bloody good day so far. Also - nice to see the tradition of Trump/Vance endorsements leading to mega losses continues unabated. Long may that continue.

Breaking the News - Amanda Dwyer, Jamie MacDonald, Kim Blythe and Stephen Buchanan - BBC Sounds Des Clarke hosts Scotland's award-winning satirical news quiz.

After 7 years of writing for Breaking the News, I reached the stage where the words ‘CalMac Ferries’ were enough to give me a migraine. I did write some stuff for it this week though; it’s very funny if Scottish news doesn’t make you physically ill: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Greedy rich folk: AI might do all the work for zero pay, but since it's not earning it's also not buying whatever you're selling. So your quest for short-term savings now will ultimately be the death of your - and every other - company.

Oh yeah, and the species.

We've basically reached the Jonestown Massacre point in the Donald Trump Cult thing, haven't we? How can he back down now? He's basically saying he's orchestrated a revolution and when it doesn't happen by his deadline the only option left to save his ego is to die and take everyone with him.

I feel so rotten for friends who are facing anti-semitism raising its vicious, ugly head in this country. There is no justification or excuse for it.

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...

Huge fire shuts Scotland's busiest train station indefinitely A blazing four-storey building has forced the closure of Scotland's busiest railway station. More than 60 firefighters are at the scene.

Quite heartbreaking to see this building destroyed in a massive fire. It was such a recognisable part of the cityscape. I loved seeing the Irn Bru sign as we got the bus home from Buchanan Street. Thank God there appear to be no casualties at least.
