No one doing it like @garbageday.email right now. The venom. The concision.
Welcome to 2025. No one reads your website or watches your TV show. Subscription revenue will never truly replace ad revenue and ad revenue is never coming back. All of your influence is now determined by algorithms owned by tech oligarchs that stole your ad revenue and they not only hate you, personally, but have aligned themselves with a president that also hates you, personally. The information vacuum you created by selling yourself out for likes and shares and Facebook-funded pivot-to-video initiatives in the 2010s has been filled in by random “news influencers,” some of which are literally using ChatGPT to write their posts. While many others are just making shit up to go viral. And the people taking over the country currently have spent the last decade, in public, I might add, crafting a playbook — one you dismissed — that, if successful, means the end of everything that resembles America. And that includes our free and open and lazy mainstream media. And they’re pretty confident it’ll succeed because, unlike you, they know how broken the internet is now and are happy to take advantage of it. While I’m sure it feels very professional to continue playing stenographer in your little folding chair at the White House, they’re literally replacing you with podcasters as we speak. So this is it. Adapt or die. Or at the very least, die with some dignity

my favourite game to play in the supermarket is called "big night in?" and involves trying to find the person in the supermarket it would be funniest to say "big night in?" to given the contents of their basket

most recent winner: a woman with two kiwis and some surgical gloves

Decent offer, you’d have to say. I tried to sub before and it was basically the online hunger games so I patched it. We go again.

If you’ve been around Central Station today, you may have noticed this title and a familiar face staring back at you.

That's because you can now read The Herald for the whole of 2025 for only £25.

What a lot of fun it was to talk to Scott McKenna and Oli McBurnie, Las Palmas’s first and second Scottish footballers ever. t.co/zEKSh44lO9

As much as I am enjoying the vibe here… the quality of Gary Barlow’s son patter is undeniably low.

First Buckie and now Bonnyrigg. We're only a few months into the new set-up and I already hate the demand for bronze licensing from every club in the SPFL.

Can't we just let Scottish football be a little bit tinpot?
