This solution is not scaleable, plus it continues the prioritization of private cars over the needs of other users of the the shared public space that is our streets. We need more equitable solutions than allowing cars to take over pavements for EV charging.

We hear fairly often that you can’t get an EV if you don’t have off street parking for home charging. Saw this great example today of what I think is a @Gul_e_EV on a terraced street in Durham this morning. @evmanuk @MusingsEv

Bless the noodle maker and His Water.

Leith Walk's finest work: one lorry drives off the pavement to reveal another. "Ah but it's okay the traffic wardens said I could." Who honestly believes that stuff (or that traffic wardens have that power)?

Replying to @FondOfBeetles @AlSultan_Meriam @arcfire89 @RichardDawkins
My favourite moment of creating humans is holding up my baby at about 6 months, right before they start any solids, knowing that I've built the cells of their body from my own. Through pregnancy and then breastfeeding. It's an incredible moment to ponder how incredible life is.

Riky M has illegal number plates, honks his horn aggressively at other drivers for no good reason, and parks illegally on pedestrianised areas with double yellows. @YPLAC @yplac_ed

Yes I think "Spectral Sounds" at the very least looks like a @MothershipRPG adventure.

Buying books from the British Library feels like docking with the mothership. The prices are great, it gets here fast, and their horror series is amazing.

My 17 year old off to TRNSMT on the w/e. I ask for a rundown of programme and he talks excitedly about @DeclanMcKenna @gerrycinamon before saying "then I have to sit through some band that are *literally* called Garbage ..." There's the multigenerational gulf right there! 😆

A turquoise elephant bike (refurbished Royal Mail post bike) with sunny yellow rear child’s seat and a large forward parcel basket is locked up at a row of bicycle racks outside a church stained glass window. Hanging from the handlebars is a tote bag with the slogan ‘Persevere’ and the Leith town crest; tiny badges on the straps proclaim ‘Yes’ and ‘Vote Green’
