Bitcoin, Magick and Eco-Socialism: Part 1 - Bitcoin
I haven’t been blogging for ages, which means that I never get ideas out of my head, so they all swirl around in the great soup of my brain and make random connections. This three part series of posts is a classic example of that. I am well aware some people think that bitcoin is a ponzi sch...
Gendered Language and Reproductive Functioning
The gendered nature of language has come under some scrutiny recently, primarily in relation to the rise of trans activism who have sought to repurpose traditionally gendered language used to describe sex specific reproductive functioning in more gender neutral ways. This approach has come under...
A More Measured Response to Male Confusion
Loki’s article on Bella Caledonia has certainly generated a lot of controversy, including two responses published on Bella, a republishing of my previous article on here, the other from Kirsty Strickland. Loki himself has also responded to these articles both by video and in ...
Whinging and Waterworks: Male Confusion in an Age of Social Justice
I’m not in Glasgow right now, but the sound of men whinging in that city is reaching me over the other side of the continent. Teh menz are confused, especially the leftie ones and male tears are being wept by the bucketload all over teh interwebs. There is a part of me that is amused at t...
How I became a Feminist
When I was three, I used to go to a wee playgroup in the church round the corner from my Granny’s house. I loved that playgroup, and I especially loved the woodworking table. Back in the 70s when health and safety was less of a deal than it is now, there were painted blocks that could be ...
Creative Scotland is badly out of step.
Right now, the whole of Glasgow, it seems, is enraged about a patronising and insensitive art project, The Glasgow Effect, funded by Creative Scotland I went off searching for more information on the project and, by way of a meander, found Creative Scotland’s “Get Scotland Dancing” stra...
A small survey of opinions about sex and gender
The idea for this survey came from a statement that “everybody” knows that a woman is an adult human female. I attempted to find research on people’s perceptions of sex and gender but drew a blank, so decided to set up my own little survey to collect people’s views. It is not scientific, it is ...
Living in a post-MAD world.
Its been 30 or so years since Mutual Assured Destruction was the philosophy behind the nuclear weapons build up. In the 1980s we were all reassured that more nukes on both sides of the Cold War was a good thing, as then we could feel safe from them and them from us, cos neither of us wanted to...
The Soundtrack of the Independence Referendum
One of the most fantastic things about the independence referendum has been the creativity unleashed. From the posters and memes, to the theatre produced and the artworks created, the past couple of years has seen an outpouring of Scottish creative talent. No less creative is the music that h...
Miliband: There will be no deal with the SNP
Following last night’s statement from Miliband stating that he would not have a labour government if it means doing deals with the SNP, people seems super confused about what that means. Some people even seem to think that we live in a democracy rather than a monarchy, and forget that ...
NeoLiberal Realism: The Largest Party Forms the Government
One of Jim Murphy’s favourite lines is “The Largest Party forms the Government”. Its a lie, thats not how the British parliamentary system works, but then Labour and the truth aren’t exactly best mates at the moment. But the truth, you see, is what you make it. At the ...
Jihadi John and other ISIS Mysteries
According to the Washington Post, the ISIS beheader of James Foley and others in Syria, is a West London computer programmer called Mohammed Emwasi. Yet only a few short months ago “Jihadi John” was declared by British Security Services to be Abdel-Majid Adbel Bary, a London rapper ...
From Alexei to Romanos: Greece comes full circle
When Nicos Romanos was fifteen, he watched his friend and comrade, Alexandros Grigoropoulos murdered by police in the radical area of Exarchia in Athens. He was the last person to speak to him, and held him in his arms as the life seeped from him. Today, Romanos also faces death. On day 26 of ...
On publishing
This blog has been quite quiet for a wee while, since I came back to Scotland. Its kindof ironic that while one of the biggest political campaigns here was going on, I didn’t want to publish anything. But I’m starting to get withdrawal symptoms A blog crash in February this year w...
Making Streets Safe to Walk On
Earlier this week, around 5, 000 people turned out at a silent walk in Govanhill to draw attention to a number of violent sexual offenses . Toryglen, Govanhill, the West End, City Centre and Giffnock have all seen violent sexual assaults in the few weeks. In the tradition of “Reclaim the ...
Its not just the poll that needs published
Its been a week since the first inkling that a poll which showed a less than favourable result to the Better Together campaign had been conducted by the UK government. An employee leak, followed by a clever find of £46K paid to a polling company confirmed it. The hashtag #publishthepoll was bo...
Deterritorialization and the Scottish Independence Debate
There is less than six months to go in the Scottish Independence Referendum. Attempts to paint Salmond as a vengeful nationalist in the spirit of Mugabe backed by Scottish neo-fascists look woefully unhinged when contrasted with the reality on the ground. But the ground is shifting, unsteady a...
