#CriticalMass tonight, cycle through East #Belfast I'd forgotten how harsh the East is compared to the rest of the city Also, a guy ran out of a house, dropped his pants and hung it out to dry🍆 Great, I admire the enthusiasm (he wasn't too enthused) But there were kids on the ride so👎 Get on a bike
I've not been able to motivate myself for a run in months. It will be like starting from scratch when I finally do go
Even ignoring the fictional details (spot the errors!) and the poor design (the brightest thing on this map should be the walking route!), this thing makes me feel psychically sick to look at. Generative AI imagery is awful at the best of times, but mapping? HORRIBLE.
in Manchester today. I was promised glorious weather. it is entirely cloud.
The trailer for big walk made me inexplicably sad. The concept is just having friends and a third space. Damn. I need to find both of these things.
This is a railway access point. There are more than 35,000 of them in Britain, each one enabling inspection, maintenance, repair and, sometimes, emergency response. Since 2020 though, a potentially fatal flaw has been creeping across the network, and it needs to be reversed.
Midnight in Whitechapel and people are still literally queuing round the corner for eclipse glasses
how do i politely explain that if you're sending me reels into my instagram dms i'm not watching them
Treating myself to a peak-time train ticket. There are 8 people on this 12 car train direct to London. I have 3 carriages to myself. Almost worth the cost.
remember you can block people and move on, and in doing so not give their nonsense publicity
Walked to the Thanes Barrier north island tonight. (original plan was Greenwich and back via Woolwich but apparently the cable car closes really early??) Absolutely awful place, entirely because of the loud angry road cutting it in two. I feel cheated out of a nice evening walk.
hiked over to hope today. going over lord seat and seeing the hope valley drop away in front of you is still dramatic even when you know it's coming. and no point in taking a photo, one could never do it justice.
I just had a big spider try to wander up my leg. permission denied, my 8 legged friend. I am not a tinyguy jungle gym.
"So how will seeing a clown cure me?" "I'm afraid you misunderstand. There is no cure; this is purely pagliative."
I want a charging congestion zone and controlled on-street parking in and around Manchester city centre. It is far too easy and cheap to drive inside the inner ring road and the result is parking chaos on the fringes and traffic jams all over.
Briefly graced the Buxton pride picnic. it was substantially overshadowed by the nearby competitive morris dancing festival. extremely normal peak district experience.
A financial service provider just replied to my support ticket with "privacy and security are our highest priorities" followed immediately by "please upload your passport scan to zendesk" 🙃
I am in Ireland this week. culture shock: you can just open apps here. they don't immediately yearn for your biometric essence
Hey, psst: every line of code is still a liability. That part hasn't changed.
After almost a year of searching, I've found the last public AED near me. There was an openstreetmap project last year to verify each AED with a survey and add them to the map, but the locations are descriptions, rather than coordinates, and so this one (on the edge of a field) was ridiculous...
Waiting for a train with a vegan carrot cake. Beautiful day to he darting between patches of shade #gingerproblems
I finally finished Banana Fish. Highly recommend, but has every content warning imaginable.
Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should
