Brake lights, Ambulances, streetlights on the 250 to Croydon.
Barbican station’s (sort of) secret platform level Crossrail entrance, and its slightly overthought elevator controls.

So it looks like a book on Argentinian 70s space age intercoms might not be such a niche thing after all. Now I just need a publisher ❤️
Barbican Stationers has closed. There can’t be many shopfronts left in central London still repping the old 01 area code.

I’ve not been as active on here as I usually am over the last few days and whilst it’s not solely down to the increase in anti-disabled rhetoric that’s being thrown about freely, I would be lying if I said it hadn’t played a part. As many of you will know, I hadn’t disclosed…
I'm pro-abortion, pro-gender affirming care, pro-medically assisted death, pro-public education, pro-socialized medicine, pro-school lunch programs because I believe in quality of life. I refuse to set society's bar at "Be grateful you're alive."

@blacksquarebrig Oh you’re talking about London — well, I do think Piers Gough’s Green Bridge in Mile End is a great success, but perhaps better to say High Line was inspired by it. Toronto has the West Toronto Railpath which is a subtle copy that doesn’t get enough credit

It’s completely nuts to me that as a country there is simply no acknowledgment of what a sacrifice that generation made by keeping to Covid rules — with barely a complaint. It’s a genuinely wonderful and heartwarming thing that young people wanted to protect their grandparents.
