Indulge me in a bit of nostalgia, if you will: The Magic Bus is no longer with us, and this is what it meant to me + thousands of other Manchester students over the years https://t.co/Z4DLdU7dPB

Deansgate Chaos 🚗💥 Deansgate, Manchester’s key artery for over 200 years, is now a one-way bottleneck with half its width given to barely-used cycle lanes (unless you’re a Deliveroo rider). Pat Karney, @patkarney I respect you, but this mess is on your watch. It took me 1

Standard Saturday evening where the @BeeNetwork bus leaves from Shudehill (late), 35 minutes later we’ve not even made it to Blackfriars due to complete gridlock. When will @AndyBurnhamGM address the fact that @ManCityCouncil plans to remove cars from the city is a disaster?

Best part of being a Cradle Catholic? You’re born with a gene that makes McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish taste good. They can’t give converts that gene at RCIA.

Remaining firm in my resolve that the Oxford Comma, regardless of geographic location in its name, is the keystone of English grammar!
The 'Oxford comma' is only given the time of day because of its posh-sounding name. If it was the 'Chelmsford comma' everyone would ignore it. As they should.

And there’s a very important musical aspect to the decision by @CardinalNichols which is pertinent to Catholics and non-Catholics alike. We are all affected, not just “backwards” Catholics (as @Pontifex designates us if I’ve translated him correctly).
*Statement* I read with a heavy heart and profound regret the news of Cardinal Nichols' decision to disallow the celebration of the annual Sacred Triduum at St Mary Moorfields in the City of London, organized by the Latin Mass Society @latinmassuk. As someone involved in

This is so true. My Apple Music algorithms are all over the shop! 🎵🎶
Might be obvious to many, but people who play an instrument listen to music in a totally different way to those that do not. They'll end up liking bands they wouldn't normally just through appreciation of technical and compositional skill rather than just enjoyment of the sound.
