March 2nd 1838, an advert was placed for a new joint stock banking firm in Glasgow: marking the founding of the Clydesdale Banking Company.

Two months later, the Clydesdale Banking Company opened for business in Glasgow - and Edinburgh - in May 1838. The history of the bank recalls that it was to be ‘chiefly a local bank - having few branches - but correspondents everywhere’. The bank was initially viewed as the brainchild of a collective of Glasgow businessmen, described as ‘liberal radicals … who were active in the government and charities of the city’. James Lumsden was the lynchpin behind the bank’s formation, a councillor who would later hold the role of Lord Provost of Glasgow.

Throughout the 19th century, Clydesdale hoovered up smaller banks, and was purchased by the Midland Bank in 1920, before merging with the North of Scotland Bank in 1950.

Mergers across the banking industry reduced the number of Scottish banks and by 1969, Clydesdale was the smallest after the Bank of Scotland and the Royal Bank of Scotland.

The bank were the first of our banks to start issuing a “polymer” notes in March 2015, and saw them immediately being put on auction site Ebay fetching up yo £100!! Since then the novelty has worn off.

It was eventually sold to the National Bank of Australia in 1987 but has now been separated again and was sold off last year again becoming an independent. In 2018 it was announced that Clydesdale Bank’s holding company CYBG would acquire Virgin money for £1.7 billion in an all-stock deal, and that the Clydesdale Bank will be getting phased out as a brand with Virgin Money being the new name of all the brands they own.

As more and more banks are disappearing from the High Streets, Clydesdale/ Virgin have recently closed 31 branches in locations across the UK, Airdrie, Banchory, Broughty Ferry, Cumbernauld, East Kilbride, Galashiels, Milngavie, Musselburgh, Oban, Portree, Stenhousemuir and Wick have all been lost in the last 6 moths.

While Clydesdale are still issuing notes the brand's owner, is retreating from its contracts to supply cash machines run by rival lenders. No longer will you get a crisp Clydesdale polymer note when drawing cash out of other ATM’s on the link system, the contract to supply them is being taken over by the other issuers of notes, Royal Bank of Scotland and Bank of Scotland. The move to infection-free contactless card payments during the Covid crisis has accelerated the reduced use of readies. With Clydesdale Bank no longer being a trading brand the name will continue to appear on the notes you get out of Virgin Money cash machines, but not any others.

The idea of issuing a Virgin Money banknote must have appealed to Richard Branson, particularly if his cheerful physog appeared on it with an airliner or balloon. But that's not happening. Virgin Money is not saying how much cash it's retiring as notes are returned, but it will be a big reduction from the £2.3bn which I'm understand is now in circulation - around 47% of the Scottish banknote total.

You wouldn't bet on it continuing indefinitely, because it's an odd and expensive advertising and marketing tool to support a brand being consigned to history, so in my opinion the notes will be gone from the Scottish scene before to long so anyone out there who still might have the old paper ones hang onto them, they might just be worth a bob or two in the not too distant future

I LOVE your style as another colors and patterns lover do u have any shops you recommend besides like etsy and such

UMH so like. depends on pricepoint and what you’re looking for. in terms of rlly nice but really expensive stuff theres fashion brand company, big bud press, lucy and yak- but those are kind of exceptions in weirdo and colorful fashion since most brands don’t really have the audience to price that high, the decora and colorful fashion community is rlly small 😭 I also look a lot at pinup and modern fashion type places like modcloth and unique vintage, not so much for most of their stuff but they sometimes have collabs with things like care bears or strawberry shortcake, which works. but in general im a bit fan of kei collective, they’re a collective of USA based artists, mostly in the jfashion circle, and a good portion is colorful and cutesy. (one of their house brands, good fortune, has made some of my favorite peices in my closet.) After that, you’re really looking into individual artists or brands. Candytrap is run by great people and def the best for plus sizes, my only complaint is some of their fabrics are kinda cheap. Clammy Heart! has a lot of really nice stuff, Pretty Sour is like. really small but i’m really excited about their future releases. I really love Ocean in space, she mostly makes shirts but they are damn good shirts. Kirakirakarakasa is really reliable, i love their plush purses sm. I’ve never bought from egglien creations, but a cardigan from them is on my bucket list lol.

something you’ll notice is there are quite a few pastel focused brands but not many for neons and bright colors.. but you can kiiinda work with it. usually i just try and buy a few more pastel items to style with other peices and it works out ok. Thrifting and stuff is of course never out of the question, it’s just a matter of knowing that theres about a .0000001% chance you will be able to find a peice to base an outfit around at a goodwill, usually i just get plain color stuff if it’s vibrant enough and use it as an accent. Vintage or consignment stores can be good but as a fat person I don’t tend to have a whole lot of luck with those.

as always i reccomend you watch cybr.grl’s two part series on decora brands, it’s really helpful. I’m listing mostly USA based brands here but she has reccomendations for Canada, the UK, Australia and Japan as well.

Finding colorful fashion is easier than it’s ever been, but you are gonna have to be creative from time to time. I ended up finding out that brands focused on raves or clubbing actually has a lot of stuff that can work. Just be smart. Theres a lot of knockoffs on shein and stuff of some brands as well as some very low quality stuff out there (i still regret buying from in control although i still wear the stuff i have from them.) so it’s just a matter of trying to see where other people are buying from and realizing what you’re looking for and not looking for.

Hello Tumblr followers, I have lots of news for you this month!

First up, a picture of my booth from Friend Fest 2023!

I had so much fun vending and it was a joy to meet those of you who stopped by, I truly appreciate your support and I hope to see you again at future events!

Now for news on the March Etsy shop update. Lots of new items are available, including new prints, stickers, and keychains; as well as the return of greeting cards.

This month's vault pins are the Cat Angel pins and Shrimpin' Cat; and the monthly seconds pins are some familiar faces, Guard and Emperor back by popular demand.

As the new arrives, we must say goodbye to the old. Sadly I have run out of storage space so it's time for some items to depart. You'll notice many listings now have "Departing Soon!" in their titles, and a deadline has been added to their descriptions. Any items marked as such will be removed from the shop April 2 2023. That is your last day to purchase them, so if you've been waiting to buy, it's best to purchase now. To help sweeten the deal, most of these items will be on sale until April 2 as well.

A few of these items may return if space frees up, but no guarantees. I will be giving most of them to my stockists or selling them wholesale, so they may be gone forever from my Etsy shop. For those of you who are new, my stockists are other retailers who sell my items on consignment. You can find them here. My older designs and merch from other creators are available through my stockists so I definitely recommend checking them out.

Speaking of my stockists, I'm happy to share that my Mushroomy storefront is now open! They're based in Melbourne, Australia - so if you're in the land down under, you can purchase from them and save on shipping.

Finally, some news on Kickstarter campaigns. Cowboys of the Apocalypse is on hold for now, so in the meantime I'll be running Eldritch Saints, a smaller pin campaign featuring designs inspired by eldritch and saintly imagery. You can follow the pre-launch page here, and keep an eye on my social media for previews of the designs.

That's all for this update, enjoy the rest of your week!

"If your mental world is already one of extreme (and delusional) fear, mass shooters do not seem like an aberration. They are just another threat among many. The natural state of life, in much conservative literature, is 'nasty, brutish, and short,' and the forces of order and civilization only just barely keep the forces of evil chaos at bay. Conservatism is characterized by an extreme pessimism about our ability to improve the world; the standard argument is that progressives are naive and hubristic in their desire to effect change through social policy and whatever they do will 'hurt the very people they are trying to help.' The view of human nature that underpins right-wing thought is false, but it’s a compelling story.

If you view the world as a place full of virtually uncontrollable menacing evil, it’s easy to see why gun control doesn’t make sense. Under a conservative framework, it’s hard to understand why gun control would ever work. After all, we’re up against the forces of Pure Evil. Surely Pure Evil would not let mere laws stand in its way. If it was determined to kill, it would find a way to get a gun. As Arjun Byju noted for this magazine in a piece on the normalization of 'active shooter drills' in schools, 'we cannot legislate away evil' is a common GOP refrain, with shootings treated 'like the fates and furies of Greek mythology, something horrible that may strike us from without, and to which we are all but consigned.' But as Ryan Cooper notes, in reality, it turns out that a lot of gun violence is spur of the moment, and can be disrupted just by putting inconvenient obstacles between would-be perpetrators and access to a gun: 'If you can get a gun in a day or even a few minutes, then it’s easy for a stupid argument or moment of despair to end in a shooting death…But if you make it an expensive, annoying, and time-consuming process to get a gun, then this process is disrupted.'

This view sees perpetrators as fundamentally human, and reduces the distinction between the Bad People and the Good People. Gun control cannot work in the conservative view because, to use a favorite NRA slogan, 'if you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns.' The idea being that 'outlaws' are a class of people to whom the law will be no obstacle. But as the U.K. and Australia show, it turns out that many would-be 'outlaws' can in fact be deterred by extreme inconvenience.

For many people on the right, I don’t think it’s possible to change their position on gun control without changing their entire ideological worldview. Their fear and pessimism are not grounded in reality. To support gun control, they would have to believe in a very different kind of world, one where many of our problems were solvable through policy, perpetrators were human beings subject to ordinary human incentives rather than just Forces Of Evil, and where it is conceivable to not be afraid all the time. But for the American right, the world is teeming with antifa terrorists and BLM rioters, and there’s no choice but to arm yourself to the teeth (and possibly shoot anyone who rings your doorbell).

I am generally a proponent of trying to have constructive political conversations with people and find common ground. I believe in trying to argue and persuade. (I have previously been called 'the left’s debate bro.') I’m actually teaching a class this weekend (come join us!) on how to effectively respond to right-wing arguments and change minds. But one of the things I’ll be emphasizing is that often, dialogue is in fact quite hopeless, because a person’s ideology is very deep rooted, and you’re not going to change their mind on one issue without getting them to radically alter their entire worldview. I think gun control is an issue like that for many on the right. They don’t think mass shootings can be stopped, and it’s not because they are misreading the statistics, it’s because they don’t see how the forces of evil could be kept at bay by something as trivial as a regulation. Just as they’re skeptical of diplomacy with China and rehabilitation in the criminal punishment system (How can you negotiate with evil? How can you reform it?), they think that the only thing you can do to stop violence is kill the perpetrators. The right’s world is a world of menace, where all we can rely on is Good Guys using violence to stop the violence of the Bad Guys. (This is why many on the right see the murder of Jordan Neely as the act of a Good Samaritan. For them, Neely was, in part for racist reasons, coded as one of the Bad Guys, and white ex-Marine Daniel Penny is coded as a Good Guy.)

In situations where it’s hopeless to persuade people, and they’re doing harm, the only choice you have is to restrain their power. This is why the only hope for ending mass shootings involves reducing Republican political power. They are never going to change. If they changed, they would cease to be Republicans. They must be thrown out of office if we are ever going to build a country where we can feel safe going about our daily lives."

- Nathan J. Robinson, from "Why The Right Will Never, Ever Support Gun Control." Current Affairs, 8 May 2023.

How Did A Court Jester From The Ottoman Empire End Up Buried In Cincinnati?

It almost goes without saying that any given cemetery contains a lot of history. That is most certainly true of Cincinnati’s Judah Touro Cemetery in Price Hill. But Judah Touro, unlike any other cemetery in Cincinnati, can boast the grave of an actual court jester.

There must be a story, and indeed there is. The long journey of Hayeti Hassid begins in Thessaloniki, today the second-largest city in Greece but in 1852 part of the Ottoman Empire. It was in that year that Hayeti was born to David and Esther Hassid. Always small, the boy stopped growing altogether when he was around five years old. For the rest of his life, he stood only around 30 inches tall.

It appears that Hayeti early on developed a talent for making people laugh through a repertoire of dancing, singing and sleight-of-hand tricks. He had a remarkable skill for languages, eventually gaining fluency in Arabic, French, German, Greek, Italian, Spanish and Turkish.

At the age of 20, Hayeti’s reputation caught the attention of the Ottoman Sultan, Abdul Hamid II, who brought him to the royal palace in Istanbul, where he entertained the court for some years. The Sultan’s troubled reign was disrupted by wars, revolutions, intrigue and plots. He consequently developed a well-earned paranoia and maintained a high turnover among those with access to the court. Hayeti was consigned to the harem, where he entertained the Sultan’s many children, becoming, as it were, a sort of Ottoman Uncle Al.

Tiring of the kiddie fare, Hayeti made his way to Paris and joined the troupe of the Folies Bergère, where he was discovered by British entertainment impresario, Lloyd Forsyth and promptly named mayor of Forsyth’s “Tiny Town” revue. Whether as mayor of Tiny Town, or ringmaster of the “Lilliputian Circus,” Hayeti traveled the world. He was billed as the Turkish Tom Thumb, or Pasha Hayati Hassid, “pasha” being an Ottoman rough equivalent to a knighthood.

(The promoters and newspapers had a tough time transliterating his name from the Ottoman, so he appears as Hayeti, Hayati and even Chayatim. Although his tombstone reads Hayeti, most publicity materials show his name as Hayati.)

On a 1908 tour of Liverpool, Hayeti earned accolades from the local Birkenhead News:

“A truly wonderful little man is the Turkish Tom Thumb. His height is only 30 inches, his age being 56 years, and he knows no fewer than seven languages. He went through a smart conjuring performance, and also sang a French song, for which he was loudly applauded.”

The Folkestone Express [20 May 1908] devoted most of their coverage of the revue’s visit to this Kentish seaport on the English Channel to Hayeti’s act:

“Pasha Hayati Hassid, the Turkish Tom Thumb, is creating quite a sensation at the Pavilion this week. He styles himself the continental comedian and cuts a quaint figure as he struts up and down the stage. He talks in a very childish voice and is only able to sing with the power of a child of four or five years.”

Hayeti and his revue performed in Australia and New Zealand as well as in most European countries. The ensemble toured Canada and the United States, but ran into an unusual obstacle at the U.S. border. According to the Cincinnati Post [10 August 1910]:

“Fifty midgets came to Cincinnati Friday morning to entertain Cincinnati and her guests during the Ohio Valley Exposition. The half hundred Lilliputians are connected with the Tiny Town Circus and they have just come from Europe. They are so small that the U.S. immigration officials declared they were deformed and wanted to exclude them from the country. After thinking the matter over for a day, however, they were permitted to land in New York and came to Cincinnati on special cars.”

Eventually, the years of performing with a large group paled, and Hayeti went solo. There wasn’t much to his act. He was usually booked as a sideshow oddity and did little more than sit and be stared at. The 15 January 1908 edition of Punch, a British humor magazine, carried the report of a correspondent who found Hayeti ensconced in the “Mammoth Fun City,” a sort of ongoing freak show staged in the London borough of Islington:

“They are mostly school-children, and are staring at the ‘Turkish Tom Thumb,’ as he sits in a tiny wicker chair, selling photographs of himself on postcards. Whenever his attention is called away the children look at one another and suppress a giggle. Then, as he turns round, they resume their preternatural solemnity with extraordinary suddenness. There is no charge for seeing him. I gaze at him, too but (I hope) without rudeness. The T. T. T. takes no notice of any of us. He merely hands the postcards and pockets the pennies for them with silent and impassive dignity.”

Hayeti’s travels eventually brought him to Cincinnati’s Chester Park. He made $42 a week pretty much just sitting in his chair selling postcards. He never asked for a raise, explaining:

“What does a fellow with a little stomach need a lot of money for?”

While in Cincinnati, Hayeti was reunited with a friend from childhood, Leon Ben Mayor. According to the Cincinnati Post [29 April 1919], Ben Mayor said:

“I had known him at Saloniki [today’s Thessaloniki] when I was a boy, and so I was glad to keep him for nothing. It was just like taking a little child into the house. But he insisted on paying $5 a week for board and lodging.”

Hayeti slept in a crib outgrown by one of Ben Mayor’s children. As his health worsened, Ben Mayor sometimes had to lift Hayeti into the crib. The Turkish Tom Thumb died, aged 67, on 27 April 1919. Ben Mayor and another compatriot, Vita Habib, arranged the funeral, purchasing a child-sized coffin for his burial.

It may surprise some that a citizen of the very Islamic Ottoman Empire is buried in a Jewish cemetery, but Thessaloniki was for many years a majority Jewish city. The Sephardic community there was protected by the Ottomans after thousands of Sephardic Jews were banished from Spain after the Catholic conquest in 1492. In the Spanish-based dialect of the Sephardic community, Thessaloniki was known as “The Mother of Israel.”

Why Professional Asbestos Removal in Melbourne is Essential for Buildings and Houses?

Before it was banned, asbestos roofing was rather widespread in Melbourne; as a result, many older buildings still retain asbestos roofs. Professionals with the necessary training, and equipment do asbestos removal in Melbourne and are generally put in charge of the task. In Australia, asbestos was widely used in building and construction materials until it was discovered that breathing in asbestos particles might lead to serious health issues such asbestosis, mesothelioma, and lung cancer. While asbestos is still present in older buildings, its use has been outlawed in Australia since 2003; hence, experts are needed to safely remove asbestos from older buildings.

Because asbestos removalists are equipped to perform asbestos house demolition properly and dispose of asbestos in a safe manner, and hence people need their aid. The possibility that any building being repaired or demolished that was built before asbestos was prohibited may contain asbestos is what makes asbestos testing necessary. In order to determine the kind of asbestos contained in the structure and to confirm its existence, providers of asbestos removal services might carry out laboratory testing. Making the decision to hire licenced asbestos removalists is essential for the safe removal and disposal of items containing asbestos.

Why Should You Hire Asbestos Removalists to Remove Asbestos from Home?

Safety Measures: Licensed asbestos removalists follow strict safety guidelines and protocols to ensure the safe removal and disposal of items containing asbestos. They make use of protective clothes and specialised equipment to lessen the risk of asbestos exposure.

Appropriate Disposal: Trained asbestos removal experts dispose of goods containing asbestos in a safe and sustainable manner. When it comes to the packaging, labelling, and delivery of asbestos waste to approved disposal locations, they follow strict guidelines. Asbestos removalists also give their clients a complete copy of the environmental waste consignment note, which includes information on how to transport and dispose of asbestos safely.

Legal Requirements: Asbestos removal is governed by government regulations, and licenced asbestos removalists follow all applicable asbestos removal and disposal legislation.

Indeed, prior to restoring an older house, asbestos testing and surveying must be completed. If you have any cause to suspect that your property contains asbestos, have it tested by a licenced asbestos testing company.

Can Eurovision survive outing? Eurovision 2024. SPOILERS!

New Post has been published on https://qnews.com.au/can-eurovision-survive-outing-eurovision-2024-spoilers/

Can Eurovision survive outing? Eurovision 2024. SPOILERS!

Some of the magic seemed to leave Eurovision 2024. After flirting with coming out since the 1990s when it allowed its first openly queer contestants, Eurovision finally burst out the closet doors.

“We’re here. We’re camp. Get used to us.”

Ah! But there in lay the problem.

Eurovision brought us an annual giant concoction of frothy camp. But in the years since the 1990s, queer took over. It consigned camp to history.

Not that we disliked it. We just didn’t need it any more. We had rights. So, we no longer looked to our quick wit to protect us from the slings and arrows of outrageous heterosexuality.

We here. We’re queer. Get used to it.

But Eurovision thought they were buying the camp.

Witness their year’s winner.

SPOILER

Nemo, the non-binary singer from Switzerland balanced on a tipping metal disc as they sang the opera-dance track The Code.

Exactly the sort of vocal and visual gymnastics combined with edgy fashion and sexual identity that made Eurovision such an international TV success.

However, according to many on social media, organizers banned the non-binary flag from the Eurovision 2024 arena.

'Trojan horse': Greens' warning on rebooted religion bill

'Trojan horse': Greens' warning on rebooted religion bill

A long-awaited religious discrimination report will finally hit parliament this week but the Greens are worried the debate will get ugly as the Albanese government prepares to unveil its own Religious Discrimination Bill.

The federal government will table Australian Law Reform Commission’s review of anti-discrimination laws and religious exemptions for faith schools on Thursday.

The Greens and the Coalition also anticipate Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus will introduce the Religious Discrimination Bill soon too.

Scott Morrison’s religious discrimination bill famously fell apart ahead of the 2022 election. Several Liberal MPs crossed the floor to vote it down.

Today, Greens LGBTIQA+ spokesperson Stephen Bates said his party will carefully consider the report and Labor’s promised new bill.

But Stephen’s worried the rebooted religious discrimination debate will be “a Trojan horse for anti-LGBTIQA+ hate” all over again.

“We’ve been through this already in 2018 when Scott Morrison’s bill unleashed a torrent of LGBTIQA+ hate in our political system, our media and our community,” he said.

“Anti-discrimination laws can’t be a Trojan horse for other kinds of discrimination.

“Right now, religious institutions running schools, aged care, disability services, social housing and hospitals [are denying] people of their rights to be themselves or access to services.

“Last time, Labor stopped short of extending protections to LGBTIQA+ staff. The LGBTIQA+ community should not have to wait their turn when it comes to anti-discrimination laws.

Stephen Bates said the debate can’t “act as cover for more hate and division in our community.”

“We want to work with Labor to get the laws right to make sure people are free to practise their faith without discrimination and that people who rely on religious institutions for employment, social services or community aren’t discriminated against either.”

Michaelia Cash argues for religious freedom for schools

At the weekend, shadow attorney-general Michaelia Cash told Sky News she wants faith schools to “be able to conduct themselves in accordance with their values.”

“What they’re saying to me is, ‘Michaelia, we just want to educate. Under [Attorney-General] Mark Dreyfus and Anthony Albanese, we’re going to wind up litigating,’” the Liberal MP said.

“This affects tens of thousands of families. I would say to the government, be open and transparent in the way you deal with [the consultation].

“I just want religious schools to be able to operate in accordance with their values, their doctrines and beliefs.

“This is all about families and the choices they make to send their children to these schools.”

Greens education spokesperson Senator Penny Allman-Payne said private schools received billions in government funding.

“Why should private religious institutions subsidised from the public purse get exemptions from the rules that apply to public schools?” she asked.

“Our kids deserve an enriching school experience that exposes them to the full diversity of Australian life.

“Allowing some of the most privileged schools in the country to discriminate against staff on the grounds of their gender or sexual orientation perpetuates prejudice and division and must be consigned to the dustbin of history.”
