We are saddened to hear of the death of Sir Menzies Campbell. An alumnus of the University, he served as President of the Liberal Club and the Glasgow University Union, and was awarded an honorary doctorate in 2001. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

This is your occasional reminder that when Alexander Graham Bell (born #onthisday in 1847) invented the telephone, he suggested it be answered with the phrase 'ahoy-hoy.' Which is exactly what we say in #Orkney whenever we sail past the island of Hoy.

For a brief moment at the end of February, every planet will appear in the night sky simultaneously in a rare celestial spectacle. This so-called planetary parade, which will occur shortly after sunset on 28 February, will be the last time the phenomenon occurs until 2040.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Under President Biden, a 30-day eviction notice rule was made permanent. A new bill would erase it and landlords would be allowed to give tenants in federally-subsidized housing three days’ notice or less before evicting them. @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/r...

This is not just a musing from a dude with some various ideas. The next step is to hollow out the judiciary and also not follow their rulings, which have been against Musk’s efforts. This is a very obvious coup, for those not paying attention.

Sign the pledge to stand strong against immigration raids and the racial profiling of our friends & neighbors. Targeting and deporting hard-working essential workers who have been struggling for a path to legalization for decades is just wrong. ufw.org/immigrationr... #WeFeedYou
Text overlay on top saying sign the pledge to stay strong against immigration rates with a photo of a person's hand holding up a UFW red card with the words: I do not wish to speak with you, answer your questions, or sign or hand you any documents based on my 5th Amendment rights under the United States Constitution. I do not give you permission to enter my home based on my 4th Amendment rights under the United States Constitution unless you have a warrant to enter, signed by a judge or magistrate with my name on it that you slide under the door. I do not give you permission to search any of my belongings based on my 4th Amendment rights. I choose to exercise my constitutional rights. These cards are available to citizens and non citizens alike.
