Support Darren if you can and check out his Fringe show today if ye're in Edinburgh (last show!) In any sane country we'd care more about what people like Darren have to say about things which really matter, rather the lies a political charlatan spouts

This film should have been the piece of work which got me some recognition. In any sane country it would have been. Alas, we live in Scotland.

As Sturgeon whitewashes her reputation, aided by an apparently 'hostile' media, here's the only meaningful piece of Scottish political satire which utterly eviscerated the politician she pretended to be 👇 NICOLA FERGUSON STURGEON: THE TARTAN MESSIAH

Everybody's wrong but you, eh? Every opinion's wrong unless you say it, eh? Every point of view or revelation is wrong unless you're the one saying, eh? Praise be, brothers. I'm just waiting here patiently for your revolution. Oh, look, IT'S NO FUCKING COMING, YA WANK

I get it...most of you think the mere concept of Scottish Hip Hop is stupid. Rap is bad enough, right? Last thing we need is it being performed in a Scottish accent. But hear me out. What if someone wrote an album which specifically addressed this very issue? And not just that,

Maybe this is Scotland in general. As a creative, if you aren't "connected" then yer fucked. Repeatedly bang yer head against a wall and hope you don't die before a brick shifts. Fuck it. Time to write a Creative Scotland application? At least that'd be a laugh, right?

Don't know where we go from here. Unlike Oor Nicola I genuinely do have 'plenty left in the tank' but I don't have a direction. With there being literally no opportunities out there for me to grow, I'm really struggling to see what comes next.

Still feeling pretty despondent Was gonna write one of those long essay tweets explaining it all but what's the point, eh? I think my "moment" has passed I was useful to some people for a while (as long as I reflected their bullshit right back at them) Alas

The algorithms have been a pain in the arse for a while now. Every week feels like I'm battering my head against a brick wall and today's no different. Or maybe I just have to admit that my time has passed. Oh, well. It was fun while it lasted, eh?

Many of you are more enraged by those trying to do something to change things than you are with those responsible for that change being necessary in the first place. I don't know what that says about you but I guarantee it's not good

I'm fairly convinced these same women would have utterly denigrated the suffragettes if they were alive back then. It's just all some bothersome, isn't it?

What the hell happened to Suzanne Moore et al? Absolutely pitiful stuff that doesn't stand up to a moment's scrutiny. These people write of an inverted reality that bares no resemblance to what's happening (or indeed the structures of power). Quite ironic, eh?

Although don't be surprised if this rears its head again once the heat dies down. Because that's how this Scottish Government rolls these days. The corporate lobbyists always win

Scottish Government's rowing back its approval of Flamingo Land at Loch Lomond 👇 Good job, folks! (Usual mealy mouthed PR bollocks from Ivan McKee as he is forced to eat a big bowl of shite) https://t.co/DecgApXHlY

The Scottish government had been set to give permission for the park after overturning the decision of the national park authority.
