I’m in the process of escaping the hellsite; if you’re on Mastodon but don’t have your account in your Twitter Bio, can you @ me with it? Similarly if you notice me unfollow you here, it’s because I’ve found you over there. I’m trying to fully leave Twitter.

Here’s @BeatsonsBS Edinburgh blocking road AND cycle space for kids on their way to primary school - mine included - at the busiest time (8.45am). When challenged the petulant driver refused to speak, but perhaps as his parking indicates he’s just thick as shit and can’t. @YPLAC

Please make decisions in everyone's interest - including kids, who won't fill in this consultation but who live with the effects of high traffic levels every day. We just want to get around this city quickly, breathe clean air and not die in the process. 🙏 More modal filters!
Screenshot of consultation page with the question 'Please provide any other comments or suggestions you may have about the consultation process.' and the answer in the text box reads 'I find it hard to understand why this is being consulted on again. I'm so tired of filling in consultations. I just want to get to school, nursery, the shops and medical appointments safely and quickly.'

Shocking to witness how pedestrianisation and the #waroncars has ripped the heart out of once-thriving Edinburgh

My favourite start to a Friday, To the nice lady driving in the opposite direction that shouted "ridiculous" at a group of kids riding to school, while she was sat in a solo occupancy car in a queue of solo occupancy traffic... I suspect you need to do a bit of self reflection

Are you still using Twitter? The insufferable pointing out of this stuff will continue until the fashing improves

Me: Zadie Smith is right - for my generation, the opinion _is_ the person and we do, wrongly, disqualify folk as human beings based on the positions they hold! This is profound and important! Also Me: Elon Musk is a shitty little wanker and you will not change my mind

Twitter now engaged in the pettiest of shit, which may lead to my account being suspended (as it has pointers to my Mastodon and my LinkedIn profile). If you're still active on this platform, ask yourself how you countenance this behavior. help.twitter.com/en/rules-an…
