While weโ€™re worrying about AI, the bollards are planning a global revolution...
@DTJackson
it's a political con "Arise Sir Bollard" will be the next sign?
@DTJackson I think they started their fight back quite a while ago ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
Iโ€™ve seen those videos ๐Ÿ˜‚

@DTJackson

The warning signs are taking over. In your pavements. Blocking your ways.

@jbond @DTJackson Of course. This is UK cycling infrastructure summed up in one image.

@jbond @DTJackson

This sign reminds me of certain people I know ...

@jbond @DTJackson i always move these into the road when they're on pavement and cycle lanes. They're for the car users.

@Burntcopper @DTJackson

I like it. Small and random acts of civil disobedience. Like turning over copies of the Daily Mail in supermarkets to hide the 5 min hate on the front page. Or putting "please do not park here" stick-it notes on Police Cars.

I also have moved "Warning - Road Works" signs off the pavement and into the road.

@jbond @DTJackson not to mention when they're on pavements they're literally blocking the pavement. Hello, wheelchairs? Pushchairs? Fit people having to walk round them into the road?
@jbond @Burntcopper @DTJackson it's good to know that the road keeps itself busy
@DTJackson I like u based on this alone! Never trust bollards!
@DTJackson aren't Bollards in reality just very thin Daleks?
@pjakobs @DTJackson
They're first generation daleks. Only move in 1 axis (if they can move at all), but still formidable opponents
@DTJackson ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ
@DTJackson
> revolution
its more of an erection, really
@DTJackson Why not? They're smarter than most of the current government.
@DTJackson don't underestimate the baby-dalek
@DTJackson I, for one, welcome our new cylindrical overlords!
@DTJackson Image description:
Photo of a street and a sign that reads โ€œCAUTION! BOLLARDS WILL RISEโ€
@DTJackson
โ€œAnd on Stage 1, fresh from their first European tour, I give youโ€ฆ The Priapic Bollardsโ€ฆ!โ€
@DTJackson Perhaps we'll have a new political party with "Lord Bollardhead" as the next PM
@DTJackson need that in a wearable sandwich board, with a hand bell, for an 'end is nigh' vibe.
@DTJackson Just enough to whack you in the unmentionables but not enough to cause nationwide panic.
@DTJackson
Someone let the bollard out ... again.
@DTJackson
๐Ÿฅฅ First the #orcas rose against the rich and I did nothing because I'm neither an orca nor rich.
Then the #otters rose against surfers and a man in #Singapore, and I turned away because otters are cute and I've never been to Singapore nor do I surf.
And when the #bollards rose in the streets there was no one to help me because the #cats with opposable thumbs had a firm grasp on all the levers of power. ๐Ÿฅฅ
@DTJackson I can't wait for the new Doctor Who season.
@DTJackson All hail the Bollards!!! \o/
@DTJackson Poletarians of all countries, unite?
@DTJackson <envisions cast of bollards performing "Not Throwing Away My Shot">
@DTJackson Itโ€™s always the quiet ones.
@DTJackson In solidarity with the orcas!
@DTJackson @adhdeanasl someone should put that on underwear
@DTJackson Never trust a bollard! They are so sneaky!
@DTJackson
I hear worms have something in the pipeline too!
@DTJackson can't tell you haven't been warned.
@DTJackson foreshadowed by this record
@DTJackson Good luck competing with the sea levels.
@DTJackson Bollards are the front line in the War on Cars. And those super-bollards that can stop speeding trucks are the elite soldiers. I'm grateful for their service.
@DTJackson I'm immediately thinking "As targets bear, blasters will fire. Nine zero, full thrust." โ€“ but that's probably a bit obscure for here. @blakes7bot
@DTJackson While you were minding the gap, the bollards rose up.
@DTJackson "... and THAT is how little road cones are made..."
@DTJackson It's the inanimate objects you least expect as well.

@DTJackson

I doubt they will do much worse that we are and running the show ๐Ÿซค๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

@DTJackson Is this perhaps about Lollards and sectarian unrest?

@DTJackson These aren't new... Videos of rising bollards from 2009.
