  • Mackintosh at the Willow (Sauchiehall st) has a nice roof terrace, does cocktails etc. Good place to see if you want a bit of Glasgwegian culture too by IllicitArtefact (Wed 9th Jun 2021 2:23pm)
  • I think you'll love it! I was in london for 3 years while at uni as well and missed it when i moved back to Northumberland, now im in Glasgow and i feel like it's the perfect large city, similar to london in a lot of ways but no where near as chaotic, always feel safe walking around, everyones really friendly. The west end is great to live plenty of cafes, shops and supermarkets, museums, parks, and great transport links especially if you're near a train or subway station, south side is good too, and it's not really a community I'm part of but there's plenty of lgbtq+ spaces around. Easy day trips to Edinburgh too! I think rent/property prices are on the up which is unfortunate but one of the best things about renting in scotland is the leases are monthly so you don't have to be locked into a 12 month contract etc. Loooooaaads of vegan food options everywhere too you'll be fine for food 🀀 by IllicitArtefact (Thu 29th Jul 2021 7:23pm)

  • First and only time i used the one that comes along my street, got two 99 flakes and it set us back near a fuckin tenna by IllicitArtefact (Mon 13th Dec 2021 11:39pm)
  • Yeah they'll be the same as that Hive one, and another i forget the name of. Can't work out exactly what the scam is but all of their instagrams seem to look the exact same, full of shite inspirational quotes and "team building days" by IllicitArtefact (Sat 8th Jan 2022 10:25pm)
  • Thank you! Bit awkward though i had an interview with them end of last year and they never got back to me even to say no hahahaha πŸ™ƒ by IllicitArtefact (Tue 18th Jan 2022 11:39am)

  • I just finished an Art History type MSc at UoG and will be starting my first ever relevant job in the heritage sector at uni of Ed, full time on a measly 18.5k hahaha, worth it for a foot in the door tho by IllicitArtefact (Thu 27th Jan 2022 8:14pm)
  • Lgbtq people have designated spaces so they can relax and have fun without experiencing homophobia. The only reason straight people would want a space just for them is if they just really wouldn't want to be around non-straight people which is a bit homophobic isn't it. Not gonna respond again because you're an obvious bitter troll who's getting rinsed already. Hope you find peace in life πŸ–•πŸ» by IllicitArtefact (Sun 27th Feb 2022 5:49pm)
  • I think most lgbtq+ people would love for there to be straights only bars, all the wronguns in one place instead of out harassing them by IllicitArtefact (Sun 27th Feb 2022 5:42pm)
  • Just be prepared if anyone looks even slightly drunk they/you all could get refused entry/service. Even if you're sober and your face or walk is a bit funny πŸ™„ Hope you have a good time! by IllicitArtefact (Mon 14th Mar 2022 1:19pm)
  • Arrived at McChuills both completely sober for the bouncer to say to my boyfriend "not tonight mate, saw you stumbling around the corner" ?????? He's a little gangly but fucking hell, you can't even argue with them its so infuriating by IllicitArtefact (Mon 14th Mar 2022 10:55pm)
  • I moved here from newcastle and its the best thing ive ever done, the cities are similar in terms of culture and friendliness but Glasgow is just a cut above. Re. Travel back home etc you just have to get creative with times of day and methods to get the cheapest price/fastest route etc but thats like anywhere 🀷🏻‍♀️ I'd move, see how you go (tenancies aren't yearly like england its like a rolling monthly thing so you aren't really locked in for years at a time) and I'll bet you want to stay. Really easy to make friends with people too you'll not be lonely. by IllicitArtefact (Sun 20th Mar 2022 11:42am)
  • Why are poeple being so arsey, its clearly for a bus pass of some sort but op is obviously wondering what type, I've literally never seen anyone use it either you get tickets on your phone or off the driver idk any other method off the top of my head by IllicitArtefact (Thu 31st Mar 2022 4:00pm)
  • Probably just something they tried introducing and hardly anyone uses, or teen/elderly bus passes or something thats what ive always assumed 🀷🏻‍♀️ Id just ask for a single or day ticket from the driver tbh even the app is a bit rubbish by IllicitArtefact (Thu 31st Mar 2022 4:09pm)
  • I know hahahha like god have a day off by IllicitArtefact (Thu 31st Mar 2022 9:40pm)
  • My friend went to get his passport sorted asap and they did it on the day after a lot of begging as he could prove he was booked to go away the next day by IllicitArtefact (Fri 20th May 2022 10:15am)
