And then we need to make sure that there's liability. A model hacks someone? Put a C-suite guy in jail. A model produces sexual harassment material? Put a C-suite guy in jail.

Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Thing is that UK gov at the very top wants to keep the emiratis sweet because they provide so much inward investment. That’s why a blind eye was turned for so long. It took a Portuguese hacker and a German newspaper to blow the lid on this. 121

Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 23/09/2026How can this be allowed?! This is a dereliction of civic duty! Doesn’t creative Scotland have a board? Doesn’t it have an obligation not to piss public assets away?! How can it possibly be justified to transfer this building into private hands?! 120

Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Yeah but it’s part of the home advantage imo. That’s why we have two games per season and neutral venues for finals. I enjoy it when it happens to us and take it in good humour when it happens against us. You can’t expect kids to be perfectly sporting; that’s what makes them kids. 020
Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 06/09/2026You try to stop them. There’s no way you can get kids to do that job who don’t love the club to their bones. Even if you fired every single one who broke the rules, there would be ten more to replace em, all willing to break the rules again. 120

Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 19/07/2026This would be a crime. If you know this building at all (or have taken one look at the way the windows are arranged from the outside) you can see that it’s a singular work of art. To keep the outside and change the inside seems not only ugly, but maybe actually more expensive and difficult? 002

Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 09/07/2026And? I was 13 years old when Iraq was invaded. We all walked out of school and made our way to parliament square. I’m pretty sure I had political opinions at that age. I wouldn’t assume the youth have empty heads, especially those who have grown up in an age even more dense with information. 210
Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 09/07/2026It's pretty mad to try and spin this as a meme "with no context" – I think there is an awful lot of context here, and a awful lot of young folk using his death to make political statements. I think a lot of people don't want to hear those political statements, so they'll pretend "it's just a meme" 2100

Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 03/07/2026I totally understand your position but I think the current push for artist led models doesn’t come from nowhere: it’s a response to the fact that administrator led models have failed and are failing all over the place. The CCA is just one example and artists are sick of it. 110
Rob Willoughby @abbenay.bsky.social · 02/07/2026This is a criminal dereliction of civic duty.
