Billionaire living in a castle calls minority group she is paying hundreds of thousands of pounds of her own money to legislate out of existence ‘elitist’

🚨🚨🚨 PHP PATCHES JUST DROPPED 🚨🚨🚨 Go update right now!!! www.php.net/archive/2026...

Scalded my ankle at work, so I couldn't cycle home. @etainsurance.bsky.social arranged a taxi for me and my bicycle to get home. They called me en route to make sure that I'd been picked up, then called later to make sure that I was safely home. They came through for me, and not for the first time.

It is peeing down but the sun is out

SPACE for Fenham and Arthur's Hill are running a Glow ride again this year. They'll be meeting up outside the Civic Centre (by the God of the Tyne) on Thursday 22nd October for a ride through the Toon. It's free and all are welcome- as long as you've got a bike. www.facebook.com/events/17453...

On the birthday of Margaret Thatcher, let us take a moment to remember what a cruel, heartless piece of shit she was.

Currently here for a couple of nights.

This is a positive development, full stop. Anti-racism norms matter, elite cues on anti-racism norms matter, a broad political consensus on anti-racism norms matter so a strong signal from the leader of a party which has been blurring red lines lately is good news.

The two vertical lifts at the Tyne Pedestrian and Cyclists Tunnels have been shut since September 25 after a survey found "a number of significant safety and operational defects"

A) Yes you can. B) But anyway, nobody is saying that you have to. C) It is perfectly possible to own a car and also do most of your journeys NOT by car (and/or want to reduce how many journeys you drive). D) What do the many people who don't have a car do? So fed up with this ridiculous argument.

I went to Geneva a few weeks ago and spoke on a panel about the nature of time for a Geneva Watch Days event. While I was there, on a lark, I entered a competition to most precisely calibrate a Swiss watch. And today I found out that I won! 😃 www.instagram.com/reel/Dd6hUTB...

I’ve seen moon halos and sun dogs, but this must be my first moon dog 🤩🌖✨

As I’ve said before, I prefer the term “language researcher”

It’s a 9️⃣.5️⃣ from the #WorldBollardAssociation

Haven't had your say on the future of the North East's buses yet? It's now or never! Please fill in the consultation to call for public control, integration with other public transport modes, simpler fares, and more bus priority! The consultation closes at 9am on Monday. Important links below⬇️

This tiny fix solves a problem you never realized you had, and once you see it, it makes perfect sense.

100 years ago today: A cyclist replies to a motorist's complaint that cyclists don't pay road tax and cycle two or more abreast, holding up drivers. How things have changed.

Well these are eye catching from Better Streets for Liverpool

Very nice to hear a sane voice from Piddington. Serious respect to this woman, who is apparently already being othered by more bigoted villagers.

A missile just crashed into the building I was sleeping in. Built up residential complex intentionally attacked in Odesa. The building is still on fire. Barbaric terrorism.

When I lived in the UK none of my concerns e.g. affordable housing, climate action, increases in welfare spending, scrapping tuition fees, an ethical foreign policy, were ever framed as legitimate concerns. lnstead I was routinely told to fuck off by most political parties for having such concerns.

Cyclists were the primary force behind organized political pressure for better, paved roads before the arrival of cars and drivers. Drivers now think they own the road and oppose safe infrastructure for all other road users. What if tanks started using roads and were crushing cars and people?

Hive is basically the only really good coffee in Jarrow.

Looks a bit...fash doesn't it? (Posted by the Reform mayor of Basildon, Cllr Sam 'Spy Specs' Journet)

⛔ From 7th Sept the Waggonway past the Freeman Hospital will be closed. ⛔ From 1st Sep (the first day of school) the link to Longbenton will be closed. ⛔ There will be no access past the hospital on the waggonway. ❌ No safe cycling alternative has been provided - the diversion is Freeman Road

The companies responsible for the 17-tonne nurdle spill that is polluting England’s north east coast seem to have given up, as they stand insurer-funded clean-up teams down, leaving volunteers and council teams to keep going.

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.

I thought that Tim Curry was already dead, but TIL he was alive as recently as yesterday.

"A solar farm on a rewetted peatland is home to more types of bird than drained agricultural fields nearby, suggesting that land used for renewable energy can make money for landowners, lock away carbon and boost biodiversity at the same time."

It’s election week! At this important moment I would like to address your entire planet with a message to the people of Earth. And I think I found the perfect place to do it.

Genuine sentence from this piece. “Of course safety matters; road deaths are tragic. But any restriction on citizens needs careful balance and moderation.”

Reminder for all watching the Labour party go "well, we have to enforce segregation of trans people, the law's the law" The UK is not the USA. Parliament is sovereign and Labour have a thumping big majority; they could, trivially, amend the equality act to end this. They are choosing not to.

Can you imagine the look on a Dutch tourists face as they cycle off the ferry and this is the cycle lane towards the City Centre. What a sh1t show.
