The world class megahub that is LJU airport advising people in the lounge (the, as in the only one) to make their way to passport control 1hr 20min before the flight to LHR. There are no other non-schengen, passport-required flights between now and 1.5hrs after our flight 🤡

I hate the concept of cars in cities and love taking transit and am amazed at Paris and would love to live there, yet I also love my 2 tonnes of rapidly depreciating metal and rare earths worth a mortgage downpayment on a home.

Not all conservation areas are thatched houses, stone walls, and bunnies. Here in Ealing we have one that conserves the 1960s area. Think plastic cladding, asbestos soffits and flues, and tiny in-house garages residents can’t turn into usable living space.

I finished Highlands Burn by @jkass99.bsky.social and it’s amazing. Thanks to the friendly person at the live show in London for convincing me to get it! Downside is that I can’t stop thinking about inspirations for it! Is Hayqia the Balkans? Which llbd stories inspired the Von chapters?

The car brained bellends of Slovene capital of Ljubljana forced a referendum against limiting free car parking to 1 per flat. Despite the city being notoriously flat, cycling friendly, yet also polluted, and impossible to park in. I can’t even. Site (in slovenian) cilj.org/parkirisca-s...

I just spotted a car wash thingy - those auto brushes on either side and top - on a train track. Makes sense but mind has been blown. It’s on the thameslink from ldn bridge to brighton via gatwick, couple of mins north of east croydon, looking west if you’re a #transitnerd

Stunned, appalled, shocked etc to see actual tax reform from a politician. This from Wes Streeting today. A thread on why capital gains tax is broken. It's too low AND too high. & why this is a good proposal.

The moment we got the solars cleaned we hit maximums for the year. The amount of gunk in London air from all the pollen, traffic, guano, saharan dust and similar pollution is wild. Good solar hygiene is important mkay.
