Totally unreasonable that @oldscotbooks is trumping me with David Hume's rhubarb but, still, I'm glad to know about this paper.

I’m harvesting the same rhubarb planted by my great grandfather, Robert Fraser. It's possibly Glenurquhart in provenance. This pic shows it in 1909 but it could be older. Six generations of rhubarb eaters can’t be wrong. Now available at Root Down, Portobello.
Does feel it’s getting worse on the roads. Impatient drivers, half-baked new road layouts and unfinished, incompetent cycle projects that don’t join up properly, all on terrible road surfaces exacerbated by growing numbers of vehicles. Pedestrians getting hit. Limited policing.

The job of much media is to turn flagrant, conspicuous horror into something that cannot be known or understood. No evidence would ever be enough. It’s terrifying.

Can’t get over the size of this early Holocene Red Deer stag recovered from, of all places, The Meadows in Edinburgh (formerly the Borough-loch). @NtlMuseumsScot show it with a titchy modern stag for comparison. Current overpopulation means smaller deer.

I compost strand line seaweed at Portobello and you would not believe the amount of plastic in the Forth. I remove all I can see, both on collection and whenever I turn the compost. Even then, I removed 2kg (mostly wet wipes) from just 4 cubic metres of finished compost.

So sad to learn of the death of Christopher Tilley the author of immensely influential works such as A Phenomenology of Landscape. We also co-edited a book and closely collaborated in Material Culture Studies at UCL. He will be much missed by his students, friends and colleagues.
This is a big win in @aberdeen_ucu’s dispute with senior management at Aberdeen. We consistently made the case that compulsory redundancies were unjust and unnecessary. Solidarity won. Thanks to every member who joined the campaign and all those who worked to make this happen.

This looks absolutely stunning @ProfileBooks! Gavin Stamp is someone I would have absolutely loved to interview. Gone too soon. An extraordinary body of work though, and I can’t wait to read this.
tl:dr For political reasons, @michelledonelan recklessly spread a damaging and dangerous lie about named academics in an area *directly relevant to her Ministerial responsibilities*. She has now admitted this and paid damages. In what world is this not a resigning issue?

So memories of it too, and of seeing swathes of it for sale in the old Kirkgate Market in Leeds. But there you are with your provenance and terroir. It's magnificent.
@JAFMacDonald The celebrity rhubarb has been located.
@JAFMacDonald @oldscotbooks There's a thread coming on chaps, what with this and Patrick Miller of Dalswinton's role in the establishment of the Neep in this country. I'll be needing pictures of your respective pedigree rhubarbs. And perhaps some sort of taste test.
@JAFMacDonald I have rhubarb from the late 19th century that has traversed various tenant farms in Strathearn, a council house garden in Aberfeldy and now in a Pollokshields allotment. Thanks to a kind friend.
@cocteautriplets @JAFMacDonald Yes, our rhubarb comes from a crown borrowed by my ggg-grandfather in the mid-nineteenth century from Prestonfield House. It's a direct descendant of the rhubarb grown by Alexander Dick from seeds smuggled out of Russia by James Mounsey. It's the same rhubarb used by David Hume!
@Calum_M_Ross @cocteautriplets @JAFMacDonald @oldscotbooks That's wonderful. On the other side didn't Lord Lovat stop for some honey-blobs (gooseberries) on the way to his execution ? Fruit and the '45 - a PhD in the waiting.
@JAFMacDonald My neighbour is nearly 100 and our rhubarb is his rhubarb that has spread through the fence. It was his dad's before it was his.
@cocteautriplets @JAFMacDonald @oldscotbooks One of my favourite rhubarb related anecdotes is that in 1745 when the Lord President Duncan Forbes hurried out of Edinburgh in advance of the Jacobites, he was raging that he didn't take enough rhubarb to the extent that he sent his servant back to the occupied city to get more
@JAFMacDonald Rhubarb is some tough stuff. I have visited a long-abandoned croft in #Shetland where the only remaining signs of human habitation were the two end walls of the house and a line of rhubarb plants growing out of the moorland.
Question for all parties in Holyrood is if they will find a science based consensus and the means to deliver or use a legislative opportunity to play pre-election politics. Particularly as for the first time Labour might think they’ll be in office when policies need delivered.
@JAFMacDonald @oldscotbooks I'd join in, but mine came from B&Q 4 years ago...
Every 16 minutes someone is killed or seriously injured on UK roads. #SUVs are *8x more likely* to kill a child than an average passenger car. Bigger cars come at a cost. Great piece from @CBTransport on the dangers of car bloat 👇

@JAFMacDonald That’s amazing! My family are rhubarb growers too 🩷

I cannot stress enough how necessary it is for all of us to wake up every morning & believe and insist that we can and must live in a world where children aren't drone-striked at a playground. Israel is counting on your fatigue and hopelessness.
In the past hour an Israeli drone fired a missile into a group of children in a playground. 11 children have been killed with more injured. Hani Mahmoud reporting.
