How has is become such a normal thing for people to watch/listen to stuff without headphones on public transport 😣

Preach!
Stop worrying about bats and newts? No Rachel Reeves MP – start worrying about the future of our economy if we tear down the nature it depends on.

Nature isn’t a blocker; it’s the foundation of growth.

I knew it was too good to be true! Bus home from work was on time for the first time in literally months! But it looks like there's been some kind of incident and traffic is barely even crawling 😣

My bus commute to work is usually an hour and a half each way. The previous record for amount of time taken to get home was 3hrs. Today, that record is getting broken in a major way 😴

Fun fact before #stormeowyn at the bottom of the weather warning page on the Met Office website, there’s an impact matrix for that specific warning. A storm with low likelihood and high impact will feel very different to one with high likelihood and low impact yet both may get the same grading.
