Reposted by chefSusannah Walker @susannahwalker.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Despite the picture, this is a development which will not necessarily benefit women. Research and engagement is clear that greenways do not feel socially safe for many women, particularly after dark, and they would prefer to cycle near a road. 6223
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 29/09/2026It's favourite bar tape and 10 speed rear mechs for me. Weirdly also TRP winter hats and DT swiss summer caps. 011
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Do you have any pointers of where I could real a simple-ish explainer of whats going on here regionally and how it ties to the US? 020
Reposted by chefPolly Pallister-Wilkins @pollypw.bsky.social · 07/09/2026When 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. 201782453
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Jason Kottke documents this sort of thing as the 'great span'. eg kottke.org/16/03/daught...kottke.orgDaughter of Civil War vet still getting a pensionPrivate Mose Triplett was 19 when the Civil War ended in 1865. Later in life, he married a woman 50 years younger than him and, in 1930, they had a daughter Ire 020
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 12/08/2026The suns going behind the moon guys. Lets not overcomplicate things. 000
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Are you being deliberately obtuse? It's the cars that kill people. Stop punching down. 030
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026But thats not at all whats depicted in this photograph being discussed. 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026You've already won matt. Changed my mind completely with your winning ways and cheeky chappie smile. 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Well thats me told. Matt wins at sitting. Couldn't be comfortable because Matt says so. 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Guy on the left looks super comfy. Guy on the right like he's perched on a branch. I'll take option A if there's space, but then BSky isn't a nice place to express unpopular opinions :) 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I promise you it's not uncomfortable or performative. What do you find weird about it? 200
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Isn't he wearing clothes? Why are you looking at his crotch? 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Tough day to have an opinion on the internet. If he's stopping people sitting down he's a prick, if it's a quiet carriage then whats the harm in being comfy. Jesus Fucking Christ. Smash the patriachy! Does that help? 200
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Somebody doesn't like men to have opinions either. The cut and thrust of reasoned argument has sailed you by. But where's the fun unless you can bully people with unpopular opinions into silence? 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026It like a poorly written chatbot. Keep it going. Something something men! emotion! logic! men! 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Well, yes, that hits my point squarely on the head, but you go ahead with your very, very dull straw man argument. Show me on this testosterone fuelled action figure where the bad man hurt you? 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I'm such an ass. When is international mens day? etc etc. OR, how about we just don't randomly lash out at men going about their business? 200
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026No, I do not. But it is more comfortable to sit that way sometimes, especially if it's hot. 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Snark indeed. Where is the discourtesy in spreading to empty seats? 100
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Well, it's certainly policing what they do with their bodies, what's comfortable, what's natural. There's a gulf of misunderstanding on this and it's such a lazy trope. No more! 300
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 21/07/2026It feels like you're policing whats comfortable for external genitalia. Nobody should be encroaching in anyone else's space, but if the space is free then I don't see the issue. 510
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Well, you get a comment, but you also get an unfollow. Don’t lionise ghouls. 060
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Kind of missing the point with the AC bit as we prefer to just suffer 6 days a year. Unflinching accurate on everything else. Well done. 110
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 23/06/2026So which c*nt wrote that headline? And on whose instruction? 000
chef @mereditp.bsky.social · 22/06/2026I couldn't agree more, and it's good to see you on BSky. As a Roker resident I think it's time you also showed a moral lead in getting off Twitter. 010
