"If Scotland win, I won't bother going home!"๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ
93-year-old Moira Brown is a Scotland super fan, who even lost her job just to support her team๐ฑ
A Scottish startup has taken out billboards in Boston to thank/apologise to the city for the 50k scots that descended on the city.
It has also sent 367 bottles of custom Scotch to Boston.
The 50k strong Tartan Army travelled to the city for their first world cup in 28 years and completely drank the city DRY.
Sam Adams' downtown taproom reportedly drank dry, Hennessy's sold out, and Tennent's flew in emergency reinforcements.
So now @WrdsmithAI, the index-backed legal AI startup founded by @rossmcnairn, has taken out billboards across Boston and sent Scotch to apologise.
Some GREAT marketing here ๐
Saw an American lassie tweeting that she has paid an Etsy witch to make sure Scotland beat Brazil so the Tartan Army come back to Massachusetts and that's the kind of can-do American attitude we can learn from. I'm sure I have a book of spells somewhere......

Thousands of Scotland supporters transformed Miamiโs Little Havana into โLittle Scotland,โ marching through Calle Ocho behind bagpipes and drums as they prepared for their World Cup match against Brazil https://t.co/uot7USYbkv
Today I joined a group of Miamians in Little Havana to welcome Scotlandโs famous Tartan Army to the 305. After hearing stories about the unforgettable reception they received in Boston, we had shirts made that read: โThe 305 Loves the Tartan Army.โ
What happened next surprised us.
We thought we were there to welcome them. Instead, they welcomed us.
They were loud, funny, gracious, and full of life. Within minutes, complete strangers felt like old friends. It reminded me why their reputation travels wherever they go.
Iโve visited Scotland before and experienced that same warmth and hospitality firsthand. Today, they brought a little bit of Scotland to Little Havana.
They say, โNo Scotland, No Party.โ After today, I believe it.
Welcome to Miami, Tartan Army. The 305 is glad youโre here. ๐บ๐ธ๐ค๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ #TartanArmy #WorldCup2026 #Miami
This is a breaking podcast. We're premiering a new paradigm for quantizing 4D gravity here first, without strings. Neil Turok โ inaugural Higgs Chair at Edinburgh, former director of Perimeter Institute, and 2026 Fellow of the Royal Society โ believes quantum gravity may not require strings, extra dimensions, or a multiverse. The key: a 1970s theory called quadratic gravity, long abandoned over two seemingly fatal problems. Turok and Bateman argue both problems dissolve โ one by reinterpreting a classical instability as ordinary gravitational expansion, the other by a subtle tweak to the Born rule that allows quantum states of negative norm without ever producing negative probabilities. One quiet assumption, Turok argues, underpins decades of string theory's necessity. Drop it, and the whole case for a multiverse unravels. Neil graciously gave me a sneak peek at his and his PhD student Sam Bateman's new research. Bleeding edge! I hope you enjoy.
