I think a lot of online leftists need to internalize that Zohran is a successful socialist is because he's not a hostile dickhead

An incredible race at the world championships - the rivalry between Vollering and Niewiadoma-Phinney, the chase by Longo Borghini and Reusser, on a great circuit in Montréal. A deserving winner in Vollering!

Good - better to reinvest the profits that would be going to a private company back into London’s buses!

Great thread by the London Cycling Campaign pushing back on claims that cycling has slowed buses in London. Obviously the real reason is CARS! (cc @thewaroncars.bsky.social)

Tbh I love the idea of a monthly charge on internet/mobile phone bills to pay for public service broadcasting such as the BBC. Much more equitable in this day and age - and tbh mandate Netflix/Disney+/Apple TV etc to have some public service responsibilities too.

Yesterday me and @alys-creative.bsky.social had an incredible party in London to celebrate our wedding with friends and family - a blur of chaotic joy, excitement, bouncing music, amazing food + drinks. To feel so loved by so many is such an honour, one that feels hard to repay.

I was astonished to see the size and scale of construction of the HS2 Delta junction in Birmingham when driving to/from Wales - it's going to be incredible when it's finished!

From flatshare to forever: the story of marrying your roommate. Happy Nerdfighter wedding!

Alys & James on their wedding day. Alys is wearing a floor length white gown, it is simple in shape but with embroidered flowers on the skirt. She is holding a pink, orange and yellow bouquet. James is wearing a dark blue suit. There is pink, orange, yellow and red confetti flying around them. On the right of the photo is a photostrip with three smaller images. The top one is Alys and James sitting on a garden bench surrounded by fields, holding glasses of champagne. The second one is James and Alys sat on the edge of a grand fireplace, wearing heart-shaped sunglasses. The third photo is Alys sitting on a swing while James pushes her higher than she’s comfortable with, so she has a shocked expression on her face.

One arm of TfL is trialling calm spaces for people that need it, another arm of TfL is proposing overwhelming “ten-metre-long digital corridor wraps in selected Elizabeth line stations”. Make it make sense.

I do think we should be spending the (empty) cycle shuttle bus money on something more consequential … perhaps improving bike lanes on both sides of the river? More cycle hire docking stations?

7.2km and 4 new stations of Metro line for €880m. Madrid knows what it’s doing! That’s incredible value - the Bakerloo line extension is similar length and is estimated (in 2017 prices!) to cost up to 10x as much. www.railwaygazette.com/metro-metro-...

Quoting a friend on discord talking about the UK’s proposed social media ban “Whenever I see news stories like this, I can't help but think of the young trans kids in transphobic households, whose only way of connecting with peers and learning about themselves is on social media.”

An example of the silliness of big hammer approach banning platforms like YouTube - sure, 17 year olds won’t be able to watch streamers and concentrate on homework, but they also won’t be able to access amazing learning resources such as Crash Course. youtube.com/@crashcourse

I'm not exactly a libertarian, but the very notion of the government banning 16 and 17 year olds from using social media after a certain time in the evening just seems laughably tinpot
