@LizClements It's everywhere with paving slabs. They never last as an even surface. One of the falls was on the approach to Bournville station MV side.

@gardensinboots @stwater Remind me again why I should take short showers and turn the tap off while brushing my teeth?

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

1. Could we stop saying "natural gas"? It sounds almost wholesome, but it's one of the most potent drivers of climate breakdown. The term is
a. meaningless
b. fails to properly to distinguish it from other sources.
The obvious alternative is "fossil gas" or fossil methane".

Reading @BBCRosAtkins book. Can only hear it in his voice. It definitely adds to the clarity of his words.

@WoodinRivers It showed me this after I read your new oil plan. Have you submitted dinosaur cloning?

[Simon J Dixon @WoodinRivers]

Carbon capture might not work at scale. Plan involves first figuring out how to clone dinosaurs, then doing it until there's lots. Then going to space & spinning an asteroid & throwing it at the Earth, killing dinosaurs & turning them back into oil.

We're at @KEVIAston today safety checking and @bikeregister security marking bikes for staff and students | @TransportForWM @Sustrans 💚

Had my bike serviced by @Sustrans Dr Bike team at work yesterday. Then cycled through the River Rea to get home. Chain probably needs oiling again.

@adamjeffrey98 @MikeyCycling If you aren't inside your car that's stuck in stationary traffic how are you driving over his bike?

[Mary Van Roy @capybara100]

@CaoimheNova All that time on uni station and you still can't load an e ticket at the turnstile. But it's okay the many security will be unhelpful and tell you off for it while you wrestle an autistic child into waiting patiently while you struggle.

[Mary Van Roy @capybara100]

@DrDavidGK Yesterday morning I'd noticed the awful traffic and saw buses stacking up on the cycle to work. An hour later in a minibus we struggled because buslane access was blocked and various cars dipping in to skip queues. Bus lanes need greater protection

@ask_aubry But he had a bad relationship with his father and he got rejected from Oxford. He's the real victim here. Hasn't he suffered enough???????????? /s

My latest cartoon for @newscientist

[Anon Opin. @anon_opin]

It really pisses me off that the great Tori Amos is generally only remembered in the UK for Cornflake Girl and that excruciatingly shit remix of Professional Widow. She's a songwriting genius who deserves respect.

Are you #SepsisSavvy?
For #WorldSepsisDay, we're highlighting this life-threatening condition. Sepsis occurs when the body's response to infection goes into overdrive, but if caught early, sepsis is often treatable!

Sometimes you just have to get through today and know that there is a chance tomorrow will be a better day. And if it isn’t, then there is a chance the day after will be. And if it isn’t, it is inevitable that one day in the future will be.
