Hello I used to Tweet but now I only tweet

Extremely Gay, extremely Scottish, mostly angry queerposting, no Yanks in the replies (Nice Americans welcome)
"So part of the gimmick of this game is you have to rank up through Z to A"

Okay makes sense

"Hehe actually we skip you from V to F"

Ah so this game is so thin you didn't even stick to your bit? Legends ZA is no Legends Arceus, boo hiss

Continuing to work on this today (no rest for the wicked, or, those too lazy to have done it pre-holidays) and it's very important we all remember the screamingly funny circumstances behind (half of) the first by-election of the year: ballotbox.scot/preview-cf-2...

I am now on day five in a row of cycling, despite Christmas, and you would think I would be feeling very smug about that and, well, yes, okay, you would be correct, I am smug, but I am also very annoyed to have lost around 7 hours of perfectly good Sitting On My Arse Playing Video Games time

Merry Christmas from me, Rosie, Maggie and Monty (these are new dogs to me apart from Rosie, obviously)

All my pals must think I am rude but I am waiting for the dug to arrive before they get a Merry Christmas, because what is a better seasonal greeting than a photo of a nice wee dug?

Mum got me a nice new winter jacket. It was of course immediately put to use with an outside task, for what is Christmas if not a time for parents to command their adult children with military severity?

Well, Legends ZA is set in a modern city, so it's not like having Alpha Pokémon here is going to be scarier here than it was in the wilderness in Legends Arceus, right?

... ... OH MY GOD, FLEE FOR YOUR LIFE, THERE'S A RAMPAGING BELLSPROUT

Greta Thunberg feels like a sort of Milkshake Duck but where the baddie is the speaker.

Everyone loves Greta Thunberg, the schoolgirl speaking up for the climate!

We regret to inform you Greta Thunberg is still doing that, and more, as an adult and it makes us uncomfortable being challenged so.

I know we're very near Christmas and the politics posting should calm down but it amazes me how confident some people are that Reform will show themselves up and collapse pre-GE29.

My guys the Yanks re-elected Trump (on delay) knowing full well he was completely evil and clearly unfit for the job!

"Love you Uncle Poseidon" - things you say out loud when you have his duplicate items boon in Hades II and despite it being at 25% chance you get extra gold, health and magick in one room, yes we're having fun this run, check back with me when Chronos makes me eat sand again

We have reached the effing and blinding and shouting OH THAT'S FAIR, THAT'S FUN at the telly stages of Hades II
Took 5 attempts to then beat Scylla but only 2 for the Infernal Beast, despite the fact I hate the torches

I have stuff to DO today but the siren's song (pun intended) of one more chamber...
Ate shit at the first miniboss on my first run, got all the way to Scylla on my second run before being toasted, which is pretty good right? I mean I was never making it past her first try with that BANGER playing

Tangent to this thread but with Tamar's post having reminded me, have I done my "I don't think it's currently possible for the SNP to win a majority" spiel on here? Basically, they can only afford to lose in 8 constituencies, and there's 8 I think are guaranteed to be won by other parties
Ironically I think the SNP winning a majority on a lower vote share by sweeping the FPTP seats under AMS might do it

Pokemon Legends Arceus: Since you fell through a rift in time and space to a barely populated wilderness you need to go along with what the people who took you in want

Pokemon Legends ZA: Hey tourist you're helping us run a hotel now no we don't care where you were actually booked to stay

LET'S GOOOOO (I have had a Switch 2 sat in my home for about 6 weeks and have only allowed myself to start playing anything on it today, the iron discipline I have shown, truly, incomparable patience)

this the Labour Together guy who said they should ship migrants off the the Isles in Scotland and Scottish Labour pretended was a nobody whose views didn't matter? funny
Yet another crap video from another Labour MP (Josh Simons) attacking me and "lefties."

Showing us exactly who they are.

They serve only power & weath.

2026 - the year of people power.

The sheer racism is very obviously the worst thing here, this man is absolutely vile and the fact he's gotten any public airing at all is awful, but alsobmy Jock Senses are tingling and making me scream SCOTLAND DOESN'T HAVE A STATE RELIGION, NOR DOES WALES OR NORTHERN IRELAND, YOU STUPID PRICK
A more extreme positions is banning all Asian, black and non-Christian British citizens from parliament or the civil service. It is very bad that Talk TV and Mr Cole, a senior staff member of The Sun actively legitimise such blatantly overt racism against all British minorities

Relatedly on "the possible, not merely the presumed", that's why Scottish Labour are currently at risk of such a dire result: they presumed they'd always dominate the FPTP side of the Holyrood system and did not consider the possibility the SNP would crack it.
Also when people say this you still see quite a lot of "Reform support will drop nearer to the time" or "tactical voting will stop them" cope and even if one or both of those are true that's still a sign of a deeply unwell voting system! You need to account for the possible, not merely the presumed!
our current system has a strong chance of putting a far-right government in complete power with about a quarter of the vote. electoral reform *must* be a Labour priority. FPTP is simply not set up to deal with a system with five competitive parties.
