Twitter is full of surprises. Today I got called a 'sexist asshole' by Roseanne Barr of 80s sitcom fame. :-)

@STVNews Sorry didn’t notice the mistake in this last night. It was President Trump who made the call to @JohnSwinney, who happened to be on the election campaign trail in a garden centre when he took it!

Paul Bradley's post about Nigel was too lovely not to share #EastEnders

@STVColin @JohnSwinney It's amazing what can happen when the First Minister can talk directly with the world instead of being ignored via Westminster. @bjcruickshank

President Trump called FM @JohnSwinney this afternoon about the deal to lift whisky tariffs. FM thanked him in a nine minute call.

It's rare a politician gets so thoroughly and indisputably embarrassed as this. Fun though.

The story of Ukraine's EU accession has had a convenient villain. For two years, Viktor Orbán's veto gave every other reluctant government a reason not to explain its own position. With Orbán gone after his election defeat on 12 April, those positions are now visible. 1/ 🧵

Congratulations to Scotland defender Scott McKenna! Croatian Football League title winner with Dinamo Zagreb for 2025/26! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇭🇷 🏆

@paulmasonnews Calling someone 'horrendous' is shilling now?

All those decent Green activists who came in fighting for the planet and ended up with a leader shilling for Putin

Hey @DSanderson_85, just to let you know that #HMPGreenock is not a 'female jail' as you stated in your article today in #TheTimes! It is a mixed offender prison with a capacity of 249, the vast majority being male! There is only 1 female prison in #Scotland, HMP & YOI Stirling!

@Inconvenie46043 @PeteWishart If you knew anything about the NHS you'd know that there's likely a taxi driver in the bed to Pete's left, and a teacher to his right. There are lots of problems with the NHS, but a bias towards wealthy white guys isn't one of them.

@PeteWishart NHS is great if you are a white, middle-aged man with an important position. But not for everyone else.

I think everybody knows I've not been myself for the past 6 months and have been crippled with nerve pain after 5 mins on my feet. Surgery to put it right today and early signs are good. I'll not be about for the next few weeks but my office will be open as usual. #ourNHSisgreat

I got completely owned by the most sophisticated hack I've ever encountered. I'm a developer. I know what scams look like. This didn't look like one. 🧵

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our former chairman, Hector Maclennan. His dedication and leadership played a key role in saving the club, steering us to Highland League and cup success, then leading us into the Scottish Football League. His commitment and passion will never be forgotten, and his legacy will live on in the hearts of everyone connected to the club. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time.

A defending player who is on the field of play, close to the touchline, deliberately handles the ball as it is going past them (with no opponents nearby), preventing it from leaving the field of play. Otherwise, the ball would have gone out for a throw-in to the opposing team.

I received a false copyright claim on one of my videos and YouTube removed the video because of this. It's a video about the Riemann Hypothesis. The claim comes from some person who submits a link to their paper about "The Continuity Engine: A Formally Verified Framework Prime Resonance Unification with Medical, Physical, Mathematical Evidence" with links to two unpublished papers that are completely unrelated to my video content. It's obviously some crackpot work, I receive dozens of those a day. YouTube took the video down based on this false claim. The only way they allow me to react to this requires me to submit my personal contact information to some random crank on the internet. Alternatively, I am supposed to hire a lawyer (!!) on my own costs, to track down some random guy from whom I then have to extract my up-front expenses. I have complained to YouTube support about this multiple times. No success, the video is still down. This procedure is completely unacceptable. It allows random people to try and blackmail me into responding to them. I have no time for this bullshit and no patience either. Frankly the only sensible course of action forward that I see is to sue YouTube for facilitating fraudulent DCMA claims. @YouTubeCreators @YouTube

I’d enjoy interviewing Joanna Cherry as she needs some rigorous journalistic challenge. Eg: how is it she ended up in opposition to or not speaking to every member of the SNP #LGBT group - the largest group of gay parliamentarians. She did not speak for us. @IainDale

Is Japan the only country that sometimes uses a >24H clock? I have seen izakaya bars in Tokyo with signs that say things like "Open 17:00-26:00".
