I get frustrated by calls to return Piccadilly Gardens to its sunken formal design, not because they aren't lovely, but because the issue is so obviously lack of upkeep and investment in public spaces. The gardens would be smaller and still lack necessary upkeep, and would be ultimately worse.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Well #Prestwich Longfield Suite's day of reckoning is at hand. I am sad we've lost some wonderful local businesses, but do feel the new buildings will be an improvement and better use of space.

This is a weird thing to fixate on, but both Manchester and Bristol's logos are based on the classic basketball design; however, the SLB basketballs they use have a different pattern.

I've seen the video. For some reason it brings to mind the school shooting where the police refused to intervene, and actively prevented people from helping. There's a certain cowardice that is demonstrated by violence against the unarmed.

Is Metrolink removing half the ticket machines at Prestwich tram stop? So there is only one on each side? Is this permanent? What if they break? Not every one can or wants to tap in. 🤦

Along with Google searches, has autocorrect gotten worse? "Kitchen" changed to "Lochcarron", and when I humorously wrote this to Mrs UniMuse, it autocorrected "autocorrect" to "additives" 🤔
