ยฃ3.25 and it's impossible to transfer with your ticket
yes i will moan and moan about public transport in glasgow mostly because of the depressing lack of imagination it shows in the scottish public sphere, that existing infrastructure assets should be so squandered

susan kare demos are tom holland's umbrella for me: i see it, i reskeet it
The renewed discourse around if people called 3.5" floppies "diskettes" (nobody did in casual conversation, at least in the US) reminds me of Susan Kare's amazing demo of the Macintosh on Computer Chronicles in 1984. She calls it a "diskette" and it sounds so peculiar to me youtu.be/x_q50tvbQm4

i know that we shouldn't look away - my mind can't look away - but that video (which i have not seen with sound on) that is all over the timeline plus the fascist lying over it is really a lot. they really just shot her for being queer, and they really are defending her murder also for that reason
