Absolutely brilliant to see Jessica Williams back on The Daily Show on Monday. I always expected her to get the job when Jon Stewart left but they went with Trevor Noah. She’s brilliant.

I thought the point of VAR was to correct clear and obvious mistakes but this picture is entirely debatable as to whether the player is offside and benefit is meant to go to the attacker so this should quite clearly have been onside.
Not that I care but feels like protectionism.

🧵Politicians from all parties calling for a separate Scottish review after the #CassReport are guilty of the most fatuous Scottish exceptionalism. Just how do they suppose it would improve upon this detailed years long process led by a senior clinician? 1/3

Dear First Minister Humza Yousaf,

I object to you referring to Scotland’s 2.8 females as ‘cis’. We are NOT a subset of our sex class - ‘woman’ does not require a qualification. Nor are there several varieties of women and for you to suggest otherwise is hateful.

Yours,

This is how to deal with smoking. Do what you want in your own home and as long as you're not affecting anyone else. Otherwise it should be banned. Why does my 4 year old have to breathe in your second hand smoke?

The northern Italian city of Turin has banned outdoor smoking unless other people are at least five meters — or more than 16 feet away, in what Mayor Stefano Lo Russo called a 'common sense' decision reut.rs/4azuzEJ

Cultural suicide in the name of 'progress'.

I have a background in international law

Unlike Israel which targets civilians, it appears all of Iran’s attacks were against Israeli military bases. This is a legitimate form of self-defense under international law

What I really don’t get about this is the fact they’re saying it wasn’t a terrorist attack and wasn’t ideologically motivated. Yet the cowardly little shit weasel targeted women with the clear motive to terrorise them. This was a misogynistic attack driven by hatred of women.

Once in a 100 year event and I get total cloud cover to the point where you can’t even see where the sun is never mind see an actual #Eclipse
You can take the man out of Scotland…. 😂

Trying to do a rewatch of Cheers that I remember watching with my Mum as a kid and loving. Man those first 2 seasons are a tough watch. Homophobia, sexism, and when Diane leaves there’s straight up domestic violence played for laughs. Can’t recall any diversity in the cast. Yikes

It looks very much as though the 'Cabaret Against Hate Speech''s 15 minutes are well and truly up. wingsoverscotland.com/far-from-the-m…

You have to wonder about the mentality of someone who hears about an event called #LetWomenSpeakEdinburgh and thinks “no, I will not let women speak, I must protest this and intimidate them” and yet still manages to convince themselves they are the good guys.
It’s always men.

Puberty blockers ruin testicle development in boys.

Who would have predicted that messing around with hormones during the critical period of sexual maturity ruins sexual development?

I cannot imagine how agonizing it must be for duped parents who had been persuaded they were saving their child’s life to gradually come to terms with this, but it’s true:

Really pleased there’s a new series of Colourblocks but by god that guy who does Purple really grates. His Scottish accent is absolutely awful. Perpul? What the hell is Perpul? We don’t speak like that, and you have other Scottish voice actors who could tell him that.

If the argument that Jewish people can live in Israel just because of ancestral DNA holds true does that mean any Native American can just kick out any people of European descent and take their house? Anyone from Juarez can just rock into El Paso and take whatever house they

'chaotic incident' is a weird way to spell 'mass murder' don't you think? Must have been a Brit who came up with that line. Probably the exact same headline exists in numerous British press clippings from the colonial days. Not that they're over, but you know what I mean.

Going to see #DunePart2 tomorrow on one of only 12 screens in the world that are showing the 70mm version in #IMAX Total geekery I grant you, just so happens to be in roughly commuting distance (1:45 away on public transport) but hopefully it's worth it. At the least it'll be an

Just finished rewatching #StarTrekDiscovery s4 in advance of the new series. I don't know why people shit on it so much. I love it.
I never knew the man, but I think Gene would love it. He envisioned a future where humanity got passed it's bigotry, given the reactions to it,
