I can't tell you how much fun I had taking Ope to his first ever Scottish football game - honestly just a joy, they could have made a feature length film of us laughing at each other. Here's the link if you want the video (it's about 5mins) bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/…
In Nigeria, the term ‘Dundee United’ is used as an insult

Short film by @BBCScotland about my ongoing attempts to redefine the meaning of Dundee United in Nigeria. We can do it, even if it means winning over one Nigerian at a time bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/…

I can't even speak at the moment. Frans de Waal's death is a profound loss in the world of animal-behavior science. My sincere condolences to his family and closest friends. improbable.com/2024/03/16/sa… #primates #anthropology #ethology #animalbehavior #chimpanzees

I can’t believe I’m actually writing this.
The North Atlantic sea surface temperature has been at record warm levels for an entire year now, setting daily record highs every day for 365 consecutive days and counting.
Yes, you read that right.

You can question if it met its aims as a policy but I love the baby box regardless. If you're worried about whether you have the stuff you need - or how to look after a baby - it makes a huge difference to get all the essentials in one delivery.
Around 232,000 baby boxes have been delivered in Scotland to support new parents 🏴🍼

lost my job as a bridge troll because my riddles were “weirdly personal” and “why are your ankles like that?” isn’t a riddle

Apple has more money than most countries.
Apple TV+ productions are flagship shows driving subscribers to their ecosystem.
But the writers are not fairly compensated for their work.
Apple could redefine the relationship to artists for the entire industry with its deep pockets.

“Not everyone will agree with this bill. But the language used, including from advocates, has been vilifying in terms of victims. It feels like they..are just collateral damage." @LiamKirkaldy_ talks to rape victims on the furore over jury-less trials. heraldscotland.com/news/2353…

I have a long read piece in tomorrow's Herald, based in interviews with women who have been through rape trials, to find out whether recent proposed reforms of the justice system would have made their experiences any better.

Found this post-apocalyptic edit on Artstation by joo ann.
Dippy the Diplodocus in the Natural History but abandoned.
Its sad to think that if humanity disappear all the fossils we've found over the centuries and casts made will be left to weather and get destroyed.

I’m looking for any rugby fans(specifically glasgow/Scotland/Edinburgh) that have been put off going to the games due to the ticket prices to interview for a uni piece. Your name will be used but it will not be posted on any public blogs only submitted to be marked

I think a lot about the fact World Rugby told the most marginalised group in our society they have no place in rugby, leaked the story to a paper instead of even putting out a press release, and have made absolutely no attempt since to show anyone trans they are welcome in rugby.
