As AI standardizes knowledge, art education teaches what machines cannot: to perceive deeply, translate inner experience, and embrace ambiguity. Art is no luxury—it preserves emotion, intuition, and symbolic awareness.

If any Scot REALLY thinks that an Independent Scotland wouldn't be richer and more successful than Ireland, they're 95 years old, a Fund Manager, a Member of the Royal Incorporation of Archers, Royal Burgess Golf Club or a Tax- Dodger. Probably, all five.
There isn't even an argument any more.

Democracy disnae die with a bang, it dies when we let liars away with it. One broken promise at a time. One ‘oops, we misspoke’ at a time. Nah! Call them out, boot them out, and remind them they work for us—not the other way round. Keep them honest, Scotland is ours, not theirs! 🔥 #YouYesYet

I'm in Canada and applying for EU membership is a serious part of the public discussion now. We're with the EU and against the US on trade and Ukraine. I'm wondering if Canada applying would impact the EU convo - and even where the UK will come down on the Trump v EU (Canada v. Trump)
