The look on goalkeeper Craig Gordon's face as he sat on his arse looking at his hapless defence is pretty much how every Scottish football fan feels. A gift for the Greeks -- like they needed one. Ah well.

We saw a colour-ringed Oystercatcher on West Sands, St Andrews, yesterday. @jengill.bsky.social
She nests on the 9th green at Selfoss Golf Club (Iceland).
St Andrews seems an appropriate winter home!

Has Dirty Donald been on social media to claim those emails are all fake yet?
Surely he could use his Presidential executive decree to instruct the DOJ to immediately release the Epstein files and clear his name? Use his big mad Sharpie magic marker and make it so!

Using a VPN to watch free-to-air French, Italian, Spanish, Belgian - etc - television coverage of bike races? I won't be able to do that anymore? To the barricades, mes amis!
The British government admits it is now monitoring VPNs use by UK residents. Regulator Ofcom has contracted with an AI-powered surveillance service to detect the number of citizens using VPNs to evade the Online Safety Act.
The UK tech minister has said a VPN ban is on the table.

Dear old Auntie Beeb should set up a crowd-funder to defend the Trump lawsuit. It'd be a hoot to see Trump lose in a Florida court. Given the US House committee report found him guilty of provoking the January 6 riots and that defamation requires proof of malicious intent, Trump would lose, no?

We have nothing to fear but fear itself, which I'm spreading.
Bloody hell
Watch this because it tells you everything you need to know about how the right-wing weaponise fear.
First come the facts.
Then come the views of the public, sick of politicians & the media spreading unsubstantiated fear.
Then comes the journalist, ignoring the facts & the public to spread fear.

Pulled up by a journalist who did a bit of fact-checking, Trump calls it "fake news" and immediately pivots to more lying on a different topic.
Have we ever seen a leader lie so barefacedly and so frequently? Mind boggling that this guy is the President of the USA.
