Scottish Labour are in some mess. Not content to revel in the tag 'Red Tories' it seems as if Anas Sarwar wan't to be Red Reform. Not only seeking more private interference in the NHS but wanting to emulate Musk and cut public service funding. I keep thinking Labour can't stoop any further […]

Finally deactivated my Air BnB account after the news that its CEO, Joe Gebbia, has got into bed with Musk. Started to have reservations about Air BnB and its impact on housing in some areas of Scotland - and probably elsewhere - but this confirms the toxic nature of the business. #AirBnB […]

In case you didn’t know this, #Tesla is one of the most agressive carmakers in suing bloggers and news outlets that criticize them, and even their own customers, in #China. They use their cozy relationship with the Communist Party to bully and punish critics into silence. “In a review of […]

Tùr Dhùn Alasdair. Aodann? Ràn-bàis? Part of the ruins of Dunalasdair House. A face? A scream of death? #Gàidhlig #Gaelic #Rannoch #Perthshire #FensterFreitag #WindowFriday #Scotland #MastoDaoine

Trump implying that all men are trans. Never saw that coming! #Trump #lgbt

If you're still on Zuckerberg's Facebook, Mozzila Firefox has a handy Facebook Container. As it says: "his extension isolates Meta sites (including Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger) from the rest of the web to limit where the company can track you" #Meta #Zuckerberg #billionaires […]

Hive Books. Sounds like a good alternative to Amazon. Supporting independent bookshops instead of sending a rich man into space. Surely this kind of thing is needed more than ever? #books #Amazon #BoycottScamazon https://www.hive.co.uk/WhatsHiveallabout

The moderation policy changes at Meta are deeply troubling and should be a concern to anyone with a conscience. While the fediverse is a decentralized platform where different service providers have different moderation policies, at mastodon.social, hate speech is prohibited, and we will take […]

After close consideration we have come to the decision to block Threads.net instance wide on all related instances (mstdn.social, masto.ai, mastodon.coffee, pixey.org, gram.social) The new Meta policy goes against much we stand for and we will not allow to […] [Original post on mstdn.social]

Sorry to hear of Zuckerberg's passing. They say 'never speak ill of the dead' but his cosying up to Trump was unforgiveable not to mention his complicity in the spread of harmful disinformation. #Zuckerberg #Meta #Trump #Facebook #Altright #misinformation #USpolitics

Israel doesn't commit ethnic cleansing only in Gaza and the West Bank. It happens within Israel proper too. Bedouin communities are systematically destroyed to make space for new Jewish communities. https://tinyurl.com/4tvyw5nh #Israel #Palestine

Là Nollaig aig Mavisbank. Taigh mòr a chaidh na thaigh-caothaich a-nis na thobhta. A mansion house for toffs that became an asylum, now a ruin. #Midlothian #ruins #abandoned #Scotland #FensterFreitag #WindowFriday #Gàidhlig #Gaelic #MastoDaoine @photography
