Photo from the fire in Glasgow last night. All rumours of an Alien invasion have been rigorously denied.

@grandoldteam Can you even technically foul your own player?

Should Gana Gueye have been sent off?

@neonsuntan @Edgeways_ Has been out for a while. Know a bunch of people who have a copy. One of the online Glyphs groups is going through it right now I think.

@psychcomm @Edgeways_

My first shot at presenting some proper Egyptology. A paper I’ve been working on for a while around my MSc and parental shenanigans.

@OfWolfanManBook @Edgeways_ I even managed to introduce my classmates to our Lord and Master Glycon the other day. There were many (as is normal) confused looks.

@psychcomm @Edgeways_ The Bumper Boys Book of Dee!

On Sat 22nd Feb, EDGEWAYS presents "A Consideration of Dr John Dee and Sir Edward Kelley: Their Achievements & Legacy" with Gary Nottingham from 20:00 GMT. In this talk, Gary will look at who Dr. John Dee and Sir Edward Kelley were, their importance, and what they had achieved.

@OfWolfanManBook @Edgeways_ Yeah, and the big box set of everything John Dee that came out around a decade ago.

@Edgeways_ Nice! Pity I can’t make it 😭 @psychcomm do you still have that dubious tome you got in Atlantis books that purported to be by Kelley?

@jzellis Perhaps it’s that the three best sources for Up-to-Date evacuation information are behind paywalls?

I hear everyone in LA got an evacuation order by text and panicked for a second before they realized the massive wildfires above the city hadn't actually reached them yet and they relaxed. If this isn't the biggest goddamn metaphor for modern life in 2025 I don't know what is.

The Rites have been undertaken and witnessed by the Gods. It is now just a matter of time. So may it be. Amun.

@PaulAnleitner Star Wars has been a major problem since the prequels, with the portrayal of Anakin’s move to the Dark Side leading to an empathy with his change of outlook within young audiences. It led to teens self-identifying as Sith and was probably the basis for Incel Culture.

The Star Wars Wars Since Disney's release of its divisive Star Wars: The Last Jedi in 2017, Star Wars has been embroiled in an online culture war. Silly as it may sound to some, Star Wars has become an important myth in our culture and challenges to mythos means challenges to cultural power and influence. One faction of the Star Wars War wanted the storytelling to reflect more progressive, postmodern, and postcolonial values. The most quintessential iteration of this vision for Star Wars was the recent series The Acolyte. The divide between professional reviewers and average fans was emblematic of the cultural divide between the intelligentsia and middle America. The Acolyte was canceled, and all of its merchandise was scrubbed from Disney's online store. It appeared that this particular faction had lost the Star Wars War.

I don't study politics, but I do study culture, and here are some of the signs that a cultural shift has been brewing for years in America that most of the professional political analysts just completely missed. Some of these may seem absurd, but hear me out. 🧵 We'll start with this one:

Until tonight I was not aware that there is a popular singer called Celeste. Until tonight, 5 lovely women from Liverpool weren't aware that there is a French avant-garde post-hardcore, post-black metal band called Celeste. Sadly for them I was not the one at the wrong gig.

And after 20+ years since first hearing about this project, it’s finally here. Now to see if I can get an essay about Glycon passed by the Classics Dept for next term.

Harry Potter was not written here. #Leith

I must have been looking particularly action-packed this morning waiting for the library to open. I was asked by a couple of eager looking undergraduate sorts if I was the University Skydiving club.

Any light you could share on the law regarding this donation of a military support vehicle to someone on the US sanction list? @StateDeptPM

I enjoy this image of the Transport Museum in Glasgow. My favourite part is the four desire lines cut into the grass because cars have been prioritised over pedestrians.

@HooklandGuide Did you get my email to the other address last week with possible date? Any good or try again later in the year?

@BookwormVaught You may DM this account or send an email if you prefer at HooklandGuide @ gmail . com.

The ghost lives where live. However, the ghost may also live where we used to. Each year brings a raft of new cases where phantoms perform a reverse banishment, driving the living from the homes. Houses not empty, but left to spirits. – George Kindred, 'Haunted Hookland', 1970
