Edinburgh living, rock climbing, forest creating type.

Here for politics, history, photography, environmental science, climate change, the end of the world and cats
Existential awfulness in every direction as I read the news and scroll through here.

Thankful for mountain blizzards and a few hours of distraction.

Hope everyone has as good a Christmas as they hoped or expected! I spent mine with my favourite narcissist.

Also been kept very busy with this 15kg's of chaos embodied.

Been quiet on here as Scotland has been busy delivering divine weather and I've been busy taking advantage of it!

Big day out rock climbing in Glencoe yesterday and here's Neil enjoying the sunset on the way down.

I have a huge trade deficit with several local pubs. I'm going to impose tariffs on all of them to incentivize myself to brew largely undrinkable beer at home

WORLD-FIRST: Ground-breaking research published today in the Ornithologist Journal has, for the first time, translated common UK bird vocalisations into equivalent phrases in the human language.

The results tell us a lot!

Took the big lad for his first view of the sea tonight. Squeaked his disappointment that he couldn't have a dip yet.

Feeling a bit guilty for not rescuing but cat chills are required. Großer Munsterlander pup it had to be. Just lucked out that he's got a big auld Irish head like me.

The cat may kill me.

But, I'm going to pick this handsome boy up on Sunday. Very excited, pretty nervous!

If anyone can show me how you grow the economy by targeting people who need assistance to wash below their waist, please reply.

And a happy St. Patrick's day from the top of Croagh Patrick back in February.

Not gloating, it's all incredibly shit for a lot of people....still, if America survives, hopefully this will be an educational experience.
America - have you ever wondered how other nations felt - when America installed a dictator in those nations?

Like this.

A succinct and seminal run down of how neo liberalism continues to ruin the world. It's good to know you're not on your own!

The inimitable Wave Pictures at Stirling Tolbooth tonight. If you ever get a chance to see them play live, then do your ears a favour.

Well, that's flown by. It's been a year since my Dad died. This week has been hard, just reliving all the trauma of this time 12 months ago.

Still, I guess that's the price of love and he hasn't gone far. I hear his beautiful Galway lilt in my ear every day.

If you go into the Scottish mountains in winter, read this article...and don't dress like a ninja.

Based on this morning's behaviour, that halo is undeserved.
