Over the years my very rules have brought me into contact with many prominent individuals. Many are impressive - others less so. When I was Scottish Information Commissioner, at an event in Buckingham Palace, I found myself in conversation with a truculent Prince Andrew (as was). He bridled that the very existence of FoI laws saying [highlighted] "People have already got as much information as they need. What more could be possibly want?"

skibidi
adjective • humorous slang
A word that can have different meanings such as cool or bad or can be used with no real meaning as a joke:
• "Skibidi, skibidi, skibidi," a boy of around seven sang to himself, as he dribbled a soccer ball.
• What the skibidi are you doing?
• What was the most skibidi part?
• In the viral song the words "you're so pretty" were replaced by "you're so Skibidi."
• That wasn't very skibidi rizz of you.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kaxftga2bqmwprjttffwtt4u/bafkreieqtim32ganbixe5no2rpbyh5zo7iadmr7yrclrcbnmpztmo3o2la)

John Swinney announces £180,000 of public money will help stage a golf tournament at Donald Trump's Menie Estate in Aberdeenshire. The First Minister meets the US President next week.
[screengrab of Scottish Government statement:]
First Minister John Swinney said:
I welcome the Nexo Championship being held at the Trump International Golf Links this August.
"Scotland has long been recognised as a world-class host of major events. Golf and golf events are a key part of our national identity, supporting communities, driving economic growth, contributing to environmental sustainability across the country and promoting Scotland through global profile.
"The Scottish Government recognises the importance and benefits of golf and golf events, including boosting tourism and our economy. As the Home of Golf we have a longstanding track record of support and I am proud this funding will further enhance Aberdeenshire's reputation as a leading golfing destination and I'm hopeful of securing further golfing events in future years."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kaxftga2bqmwprjttffwtt4u/bafkreigehvro7hx3nvqbczokjbpme5outtf62c742gemyjxaqdyxefdrc4)
