My Walk

This post has the "wild opinions" tag. That means the content of this post is neither my opinion nor the opinion of anyone else. The contents are untrue and definitely misleading. Read at your own risk.

Today as I was walking to my place of work I saw many miracles happening in front of me. Miracles were as small as leaves falling from decaying trees. Trees which were green are now brown and orange with highlights of autumnal reds. The bark slowly peeling and becoming mulch. Water slowly flowing from the remaining tips of leaves down the trunk into the now fertile ground. Snails enjoying life with the nutrients available.

But it's turning to winter and the ground is about to freeze tonight. The weatherman has informed me about the frost tonight and it'll be the demise of the snails. Do snails freeze? Are snails able to feel the cold? How cold is too cold for a snail? Should we all adopt a snail for nights where there will be frost to keep them safe? Do snails actually feel anything? Does anything feel anything? Am I me? What is we? And...

After being sidetracked by one of my many thought experiments I found an abandoned house which at both times is perfectly normal and completely dilapidated. I think to myself it's QUANTUM. But why is quantum energy present here. Infact quantum is happening everywhere but we don't notice it. Infact if we don't notice something in our everyday life does it actually exist. The answer is a definitive yes. But ask that same question to flat earthers or anti vaxxers and the collective knowledge of scientists and astronomers and people who have spent many years researching that exact thing goes out of the window.

I continued this morning on my actually relatively short walk to work. And more miracles happened the continuing roar of cars disappeared. Silence. I knew something dreadful was wrong. Climate change had come real and there was a wall of water approaching me. My geography teacher had said that the Thames Barrier will last to at least 2070 but its 2021 and well I think he was wrong. The wall of murky brown freezing wall of water. I was guaranteed to die but today was a day of miracles so the wall of water parted like Moses. I discovered like Google analytics told me I can control and manage dimensions. After using my supernatural powers I continued on the last few metres of my journey to work. And surprisingly it was still dry and working after being hit by the wall of Thames water.

London's Hail and Ride Sections

Image
What they are, what they try to do and why we should probably get rid of them. What is Hail and Ride In London many routes ( including the 969 which is London's least frequent bus route ) have sections which don't have any physical bus stops and are defined as hail and ride. These sections are almost always on very minor roads going "round the houses" which means the route is almost certainly not the most direct way to a destination. But the routes themselves have their uses, and whilst routes with hail and ride sections are generally somewhat infrequent, they fulfil TFL's aim for every resident in London to be within 400m of a bus stop. But these buses are not just a box ticking exe

Cavalry Tunnel: The Secret Almost Abandoned Tunnel under a London Railway Line

Image
Nowhere to be found on Google Maps, running parallel to the River Crane, the Cavalry Tunnel lies dark and abandoned under the train line between Whitton and Feltham. And despite the unclear access rights the tunnel is relatively heavily used by the general public with no physical obstructions which stop access. The tunnel is split into two parts; the most used paved section connecting either side of the train line, and the abandoned pitch black fly tipper's heaven with a tantalising door at the end. The Used Section Despite being almost abandoned the used section has unnaturally high footfall primarily because the nearest crossing of the railway line is 0.6 miles away (by the c

Bees And What Is Really Vegan

Image
Bees, through being pollinators, are vitality important in fertilising many flowers which grow into plants for us to eat (and for other animals to eat which we then eat). This is why the declining bee population is so concerning with some people believing that bee extinction will be the cause of human extinction. Bees are small animals and are the right size to fly into a flower, collect pollen, and then play their role in fertilisation by releasing their pollen into another flower. But bees are just like humans and they need to get something out of their work which is fertilising plants. This is the role of nectar which has a sweet smell that invites the bees to a flower and when consumed the pollen of the flower is unknowably transferred onto the bees body. T
