The new league season begins, and predictably your hopes and dreams get immediately crushed. 😂 Scored 3 goals and still lost, a Sunday league team could defend better. Oh well, only Celtic next. Piece of cake.
A perfect example of why Westminster will never let Scotland leave the Union and opposes another independence referendum so strongly. We're not an equal partner and haven't been for a long time, we're just a land of resources which they keep stealing from us.
Reports of a car driving into the crowd at Berlin Pride, just so depressing and scary that this is where we're at. Not even safe in our safe spaces.
Left the house and saw two Norwegian flags within 60 seconds 😂🇳🇴
If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be traveling on, now 'Cause there's too many places I've got to see The #Buffy scene where Giles sings this song feels even more poignant now.
I wish I could say The right words To lead you through this land Wish I could play the father And take you by the hand Wish I could stay here But now I understand 🥺🥺
Happy Pride Month, besties. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ The bigots will never steal or silence our queer joy. Those of us who can be loud, visible and unapologetically ourselves need to triple it for those who can't. Sending solidarity to trans people in particular right now. 🩷🤍🩵
Everyone else can stop attempting their Scotland World Cup songs now thank you, this is the one. 🏴
Taylor Jenkins Reid, I hope you're willing to pay my therapy bills because I am not emotionally stable enough for this. I am in SHAMBLES. #Atmosphere
Being the first woman to ever see the moon is Girl Boss Ultimate Level. 🚀🌕 Slightly fixated on this #Artemis mission because witnessing a historical event that isn't dreadfully horrifying is like a drug. Space travel generally just blows my mind.
So the #Buffy revival was cancelled by one dickhead man who didn't feel personally catered to. Months of hard work by Sarah, Chloe and the crew ruined by one smug snap of this asshole's fingers.
We were told that after the war the nazis vanished without a trace But batallions of fascists still dream of a master race The history books, they tell us of their defeat in 45 And they all came out of the wood works on the day the nazi died
Probably the greatest power ballad of all time, argue with the wall.
Some Americans tweaking out over Bad Bunny singing in Spanish, meanwhile this had most of Europe in a chokehold in 2004 despite most of us not understanding a word of Romanian. The Ketchup Song was a very close second.
Jodie Comer the best actress of her generation by far, Prima Facie matinee in Edinburgh was a privilege and a honour to watch. Thank you Jodie and team for taking this show on tour and giving more people the chance to experience it and its very important message . #PrimaFaciePlay
The person in the office is A racist Bride came in the mail, but he opposes immigration That's someone's abuelita Not a foreign armed invasion That would be the masked men raiding graduation ceremonies Unmarked vans snatching people off the street
Downtown's burning you can watch it live Another shooting at the mall on a Tuesday night How did everyday living get to be so cruel Gotta wonder what the hell we're turning into We're just praying that the kids'll make it back from school
12 year old me who obsessively rewatched Titanic partly just to look at Rose would be particularly thrilled at this headline. Turns out one of the closeted actors she knew in Hollywood was herself.
The best part of the day was taking a walk in the crisp chilly air after dinner, fresh air makes everything feel better.
Only Lady Gaga could do an album like Artpop AND sound this natural singing southern style gospel, a true musical chameleon.
Joan Jett not changing the pronouns in this version of Crimson and Clover is my Roman empire.
Someday at Christmas men won't be boys Playing with bombs like kids play with toys One warm December our hearts will see A world where men are free Someday at Christmas there'll be no wars When we have learned what Christmas is for This feels extra timely at the moment. 🎄
Totally expected top songs and artists, surprise coconut tree cameo from Kamala because I listened to 107 Days, and Spotify telling me I have the listening age of a grandma. Much better #SpotifyWrapped this year after 2024 was a letdown.
See you in Edinburgh in February, Jodie! 👋 #PrimaFacie Not even exaggerating when I say that seeing her perform this live will change me as a human being. I also can't wait to see Cynthia Erivo in the film adaption.
I should not be allowed in a bookshop for any longer than 5 minutes, bought two more additions for my TBR pile yesterday. #booksky
In these anti immigrant times, it's nice to know some people have always been on the right side of the history. Love The Proclaimers.
Got back from the shop and left the door open briefly whilst I put the bags down, turned around and the cat belonging to the new neighbours had just let itself in. 😳😂
The first time in my life I can say I've read 2 of the top 5 NY Times Bestsellers 📚
This song was written about events over several decades, nowadays it feels like we could write one per month. Can things just stop happening please. We are very tired.
