I had a real visceral reaction to the Oval Office spectacle last night.
I am a product of the post-Cold War geopolitical order. To see it crumbling like this is filling me with utter dread.
The US has chosen. Time for the rest of us to regroup and step up.

I got to watch three films at the weekend, for the first time in months.
Behind the Lighted Stage - a Rush documentary that is more human than most.
Longlegs - unsettling and bizarre, but mostly enjoyable.
My Old Ass - so effortlessly good that I know it will stick with me for a long time.

A good day to be outside in Aberdeenshire, for a change. Strong little legs up a slightly snowy Mither Tap.
