I came to this article in search of evidence that the amount you fly is strongly correlated with income (it is) but learnt something extraordinary: the %age of UK population who don’t fly has been around 50% since 2002. Low-cost airlines haven’t budged it inequalityintransport.org.uk/exploring-tran…
I don’t recognise this from my experience of tours, but if you live in a noteworthy place everyone’s heard of, such as Texas or California, it would be a completely legitimate answer. I’d say London

Is there any specific guidance for how you go about pedestrianising town centres? E.g. quantifying how much parking you need, maximum distance from drop-off points, optimal hours for deliveries, etc.? (Before/after photos are Pontevedra, Spain, which is *very* pedestrianised)
Oh, das ist neu: Es gibt nun im @unsereOEBB-Ticketshop eine Unterscheidung zwischen "Zug nicht buchbar" und "ausverkauft". Zumindest bei Zügen, die im ÖBB-eigenen Reservierungssystem hinterlegt sind.
Anyone who's been interrailing in Spain: did the need to make reservations put a big dent in your flexibility? I only did two days of travel, but it was a pain. And what happens if you miss a connection due to delays? Are you covered?
Arriving in Paris from London: Allez allez, love it here, en vacance, so chic, une grande verre de vin rouge s’il vous plait garçon! Arriving in Paris from anywhere further south: well this fucking sucks, it’s like London if everyone hated you and a beer cost £10
Honey, you okay? You barely touched your Billie Irish!
I can’t help feeling we’ve failed as a society if our only solution for transporting a cake is a van
Why do all marketing emails have to sound like this? Do you really think I’m going to mistake this for a personal email? I hate it
look how happy he was the day he ruined his life and everyone else's nice time, the simple delight of one obscenely rich friendless imbecile and the lamest joke ever activated in the anglosphere.
Great video as always! But while "big black smudge meaning error" gets the idea across, I think the details of how the smudge came to be are really neat. When you look at the ocean in Google Maps, you're not really looking at satellite photos at all. It's totally fake. 1/🧵

I was fortunate to witness Seville’s famous Running of the Cars earlier, where daredevils attempt to navigate narrow streets in oversized vehicles as delighted crowds shout helpful advice
50 minutes wait in total (to be told all the tickets were sold out). Joder. What a way to run a station

I have found the least happy place on Earth (after 15 minutes of searching because the signage is so bad): ticket office at Madrid Atocha train station. Have been queuing for 33 minutes so far
This is a good question. Why have heat pumps become a bit of a contentious topic in the UK? I'm late to it, but wanted to have a proper go at answering it... 🧵

@nonstopeurotrip @baveshmoorthy @AndyBTravels @Interrail @DB_Bahn I've long been of the view that SNCF and RENFE should either accept InterRail properly on that basis or withdraw from it entirely.
@nonstopeurotrip @baveshmoorthy @AndyBTravels @Interrail @DB_Bahn Quota control on InterRail reservations takes the mick. I get that some countries have compulsory reservation, but until the train is actually full a reservation should be issued either free or at a nominal charge the same as would apply to the holder of a full price ticket.
The total cost of all my journeys? €0. Well today anyway. I'm travelling on a First Class @Interrail and you can jump on any train in #Germany, no reservations or fees. And if you miss one, get on the next, no penalty. Listen up France, Spain, Italy... 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪 #NonstopEurotrip

The advice in the US, where bird flu has spread to many dairy cows, as well as cats and at least one human, is to avoid unpasteurised dairy. Why not go plant-based, to help reduce the risks of pandemics, antibiotic resistance, chronic diseases, and climate & ecological collapse?
This is exactly what I’d expect from high path avian influenza H5N1 in many mammals. It’s a deadly virus. Any attempts to minimize the threat of this virus are irresponsible. This virus can change easily, can spread swiftly, and cause great harm. There has never been such…
@PoliticoTeacher @lukeakehurst Luke's argument is just a tedious tautology. "Voters don't want hard left politics". So if voters support a programme it by definition ceases to be "hard left". So the statement is always true, by definition, but it tells us literally nothing about how to win an election.
@Microlambert I took a load of smaller regional trains in the north and didn’t have any issues finding reservations last minute. It’s actually amazing they sell out considering how many services they run. When we did Barcelona-Madrid there were trains leaving every 15 min and were all packed.
...what? Huh.
@bob_the_worm @Microlambert @iambrianjones There are few streets in Oxford so narrow walking and cycling can't co-exist. Maybe Brasenose Lane, southern Turl St, etc. The fundamental problem is getting the motor traffic restricted to services, deliveries, disabled parking, etc.
@Microlambert The only problem we had was Madrid -Lisbon which isn’t bookable online. Supposedly it usually doesn’t sell out, but we went around Easter and the whole week was sold out. Ended up flying that leg (very expensive)
@NickTagliaferro If someone is allowed to say they're from Malta I think it's fine to say you're from California
@NickTagliaferro in my experience telling a european that you are american leads to a "no shit thats obvious, what part of america" followup anyway lol
@PSmough @NickTagliaferro @orelladeporco @JamesSBTaylor Yeah man, me, a 6’3 white guy in wayfarers, a polo shirt and boat shoes who says “y’all” is from Tbilisi.
at this point there is pretty much no reason at all to not consider West Africa as one of the primary "Cradles of Civilization", and hopefully in the future this changes. that said, I also think the Dniester-Dnieper region of Chalcolithic Europe should be considered one too
