The Italian Renaissance style former Wylie Department Store on Buchanan Street in Glasgow. Built in 1889, it was designed by John Hutchison, with details drawn by his assistants Andrew Black and Charles Rennie MacKintosh. MacKintosh may have been responsible for some of the ornate internal plaster column capitals on the ground and first floors. These were still present until at least 2012, and may still be in place.

The January 6 attempted was organized, from the top down, with the express aim of preventing the transfer of .

It wasn't a goddam .

At the Supreme Court, [Trump's lawyer] has argued the justices should not concern themselves with “lurid hypotheticals” that “almost certainly never will occur, and would virtually certainly result in impeachment and Senate conviction … if they did occur.”

Dr. Damien P. Williams, Magus

Genuinely huge news from the American Psychological Association, which just voted 153-9 to pass a new policy agenda supporting transgender healthcare, actively dismantling the misinformation and lies ABOUT trans people and their healthcare needs, and calling for a complete repeal of all anti-trans bills, nationwide. It isn't federal law, but it is huge and will have a beneficial impact in a number of places in the US.

Well done on the APA, here, doing what they can to protect trans people.
