Hm, how about Darling Be Home Soon by the Loovin' Spoonful? I think that'd work.

That's it. I'm changing my look!

In related news, the Daily Mail has ran multiple scare stories over the last few years about cyclists, and has called for cyclists to have licences like drivers.

The only other nation to adopt this system happens to be North Korea.

Urgh... I've noticed that the council haven't learned from previous consultations that were open to abuse - It doesn't appear to have any security. Literally anyone can complete it.

Conversely, Fall lyrics sometimes actually appear to be actual locations.

Although 'Neurotic.Red.Landscape' is not, 'Debtors.Retreat.Estate' appears to be in Brunei, Asia.

I'm beginning to suspect Mark E Smith may have left us with an opaque Goonies-style treasure map to solve!

Did you know, the location finding website What 3 Words - which tags 3 random words to physical spaces - makes an excellent The Fall lyrics generator? 😆

I've had to stop reading it. Too frustrating.

@hullcitycouncil.bsky.social recently did the same when reintroducing cars to a car-free green park - initially citing disabled access for the move before pivoting to provide over 100 new non-disabled parking spaces, all on a park route previously used by walkers, cyclists, children, etc 🤦‍♂️

This. And, same result, different issue:

Schemes are often subject to quality-eroding meddling, and officers actually being unaware of the latest guidance. There are examples that'd make you wince!

I've found it all rather weird! It's akin to campaigning to ban all roads because some drive dangerously on them.

Do you think your Labour attacks on social security will lead to more or less anti-social behaviour?

It’s very difficult to keep up sometimes. One presumes the rightwing news publishes daily updates!

Pedestrian underpasses - they’re ‘snowflakes’, right? 😂

I saw this on TheRacistVersionOfThisSite (tm).

Do you expect traffic infrastructure to inherit derogatory left-wing slurs? As in, ‘That flyover is a pinko commie!’?
