Glasgow City Centre felt just right without traffic today

The £10 Return Fare – and Everything Else that Went Wrong with Cumbernauld Why the "Town of Tomorrow" fails us today

"Cumbernauld didn’t fail because modernism was doomed. It failed because they let it rot, and then told us it was inevitable." My thoughts on the town of tomorrow, today! open.substack.com/pub/smixsam/...

We can dream!

This government is such a cataclysmic disappointment in every way

Any plans here MUST take account of the future cross-Clyde rail tunnel and the main station linking Queen Street and Central. It's an inevitability and a necessity and the fact that Glasgow hasn't yet developed safeguarded plans means opportunities like this will be wasted.

And they justify a nice IKEA trip

Discovery+ is to watching live sports what PE in high school is to taking part in live sports

Two dudes standing around a watercooler, presumably having a 'watercooler conversation' about last night's Seinfeld or whatever.

A guy in a suit on a city street doing some damn business on a cell phone. The business never stops!!!!!

Today I discovered that people have been uploading old stock photo CD-ROMs to the Internet Archive and now I'm obsessed with the mid-'90s business-core aesthetic.

I think it’s fine to bully people for reading Harry Potter in 2025 actually

If you want to read your old Harry Potter books, you should do it in secret and shamefully - you know, in the way that J.K. Rowling wants to force trans people to live.

Twitter post asking: Should we be told where we can walk out dogs? Yes or No Above a screenshot of a news headline: 'This is an Islamic area now. Don't walk your dogs here': Police probe sign in east London park

Are Muslims really banning dogs in parks? 🤔

Let’s look at this perfect example of how rage baiting works, and how disinformation spreads, sticks, and fuels division, even years after being debunked…

Are we at the “sacking Kwasi Kwarteng” stage yet?

Finally, something light to distract us from the news

Joke’s on you, I haven’t replaced the batteries in one of mine 😎

Before Pixar was making movies like Toy Story, they made software and its whole purpose was 3D text on some very basic Windows PCs.

…what?

This is a good thing

Val d'Oro Chip shop in Glasgow has nailed its colours to the mast. How you react is up to you, but you do have a right to take that into consideration in making your choice of who to give your business.

TEAM COCO!

Well it used fairly standard (albeit advanced) techniques to separate and clean up vocals from a recording from the 70’s. It’s really not connected to the same kind of GenAI slop you see elsewhere. Conflating the two is misleading and unhelpful

The Beatles song isn’t “AI music shoved out on the cheap” at all…
