Oh, the Daily Mail, how you never disappoint me in attracting the most mentally deficient, goblinesque commentators that the internet can produce. No small wonder then, when an internet connection, I’d imagine, is hard to install in a swamp bound cave network. But I digress, the above is about some skeletons found in Galloway, and …
“Build a wall! Build a wall! Build a wall!” They chanted, to the glee of the guffawing Liz Truss, and her self-satisfied smile. 44 days. That was all this limpid, wiry hag needed to plunge the economy of Britain into the red, to sink the pound and just about cripple the economy so severely, that …
According to my analytics, a few of my posts have ended up on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. Although I’m not on any of these social medias, and so haven’t been able to search through them, or successfully follow the referrer links, in order to see how they’ve been viewed. Yet I’ve always been somewhat curious, …
Stream of consciousness Let me start out by saying, that I hate the subreddit, r/Scotland. It’s quite frankly a tornado of shite spinning around an echo chamber, of which already reeks of farts. If you don’t praise the SNP, then you’re a Nazi. If you don’t find Humza Yousaf delightfully charming and debonair, then you’re …
https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/582749/irish-slang Well, not according to the above link. Nor the one below, either. But I can assure you mo caraid, they are not Irish words, and they most certainly did not originate on that island.

Often, these two words, especially in today’s politically charged parlance, are all but synonymous. Or, at the very least, go hand in hand with one another in the minds of many people. And if I’m being completely honest, I understand why, although fortunately I continue not to view the world in blinkered black and white …
Now, I’m under no illusion that anyone actually cares about why I no longer believe in the SNP, for I inhabit a small, inconsequential corner of the Scottish blogosphere, where my own opinion pieces are often overlooked in favour of a few choice, standout posts, chiefly this, this, and this one. And alone, they garner …
The only counter to Nationalism, is that it isn’t inclusive. That’s all they’ve got, and by “all”, I mean the multitude of begging, membership-only-costs, type websites and “institutions” that have sprung up all around the web as of late. - That’s right, for the small fee of 55 dollah a month, you can also have …
Quick, here’s a question for you: If your child came home from a night out and told you he’d gotten into a drunken altercation and knocked someone out, what would you do? Answer: You’d probably chastise him, and then fret all night until you were sure the police weren’t going to chap the door. You …
This is the first post I’ve ever written that doesn’t concern Scotland, or some grievance or whatnot. That’s progress, perhaps, because this blog has only ever been about Scotland. Never about Celtic culture, or other Celtic nations. Not because I didn’t care about them, but because they didn’t need me fighting their battles. But this …
