@redteamwrangler that takes me back a few years.
@AlynSmith one down.

How bus use has changed in London & in big cities outside of London since deregulation. (from which London was exempt).

From @thomasforth (posted at the other place)

Its quite an extraordinary 'natural experiment' - from which we can draw the conclusion (without too much difficulty) that #privatisation is not the way forward if #busses are to be part of the #greentransition

(and don't get me started on #London exceptionalism....)

@ChrisMayLA6 living up north (st Helen’s) I and many others are fully aware of how London is blessed with excellent public transport. I moved there in the 60s and it was the same then.
Having trouble accessing Quordle on the Merriem Webster site. Anyone having a similar problem?
One for the Brits. Can anyone tell me something that is better after Brexit? I’m genuinely, and desperately, trying to come up with something.
Instead of: no one wants to work anymore. Try: no one wants to be exploited anymore.
@Richard_Littler I feel for you. I’ve never tried Ulysses.
I think Kazuo Ishiguro is wonderful and I love all his books except “The Unconsoled”. I’ve tried and failed to finish it three times. I did feel vindicated when an interviewer on BBC2 said it was his only poor book.
@malwaretech I agree. If I want to fight I’ll pick a worthwhile battle. Twitter isn’t worth the hassle. So far I’ve found Mastadon better; not so many “no marks” as we say in my part of England.
