For the last 14 years my commute by PT has worked due to timely connecting trains on the way home. Need to do some more checking but the December timetable change isn't looking good

Always interesting to compare the Halifax Piece Hall with the Huddersfield Cloth Hall (built 1766). The latter was reportedly described as the "ugliest building in Europe" and few were sad to see the long-disused building razed to the ground at the end of the 1920s.

Even an iPhone isn’t good enough but I like the symmetry of the brilliantly lit patch of sky and the LED streetlight-illuminated tunnel of Gledhow Wood Road.

The problem here is illegal motorbikes and not cyclists. A scheme to get the delivery drivers onto proper e-bikes would be a better use of time and effort

Photo of a Kansas City Chiefs press conference with Andy Reid, Travis Kelce, and Patrick Mahomes. Reid is wearing a gray suit and red tie with a lapel pin. Kelce is wearing a camp-style short-sleeved shirt with a bird print, along with a suede cap, and Mahomes is wearing a white collared shirt, a pink checkered double-breasted vest, and a pale pink tie.

It's pretty much been built already by government. That said the rhetoric in the announcement last week was horrific, especially as the concept had had cross party support.

It's really interesting how few people you talk to irl realise how much local government has been gutted over the last 15 years

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
