  1. A new demand-responsive public transport service, OnDemand, will launch across parts of #Doncaster and #Rotherham on 3 August as a 12-month pilot led by the South #Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority and #technology partner Via. Passengers will be able to book shared bus journeys by app or phone up to seven days in advance, with no fixed routes or timetables. Designed to improve access to jobs, education, healthcare and transport hubs, the service will complement existing buses, trams and trains. Fares start at £3, with concessions available, and services will run Monday to Saturday, 5am to 6pm. Feedback and journey data collected during the pilot will help shape future public transport across South Yorkshire. Information events will be held in Doncaster and Rotherham before and shortly after the launch.

  7. UPDATE: this has now sold! I'm selling other stuff at ebay.co.uk/usr/zoyzone

    Anyone in #rotherham #sheffield #doncaster or nearby with an interest in #DIYscience or #experimental #filmmaking should check out my microscope, which I'm selling to pay for a mobility aid.

    It comes with a bespoke smartphone holder, so you can easily record and even livestream the teeny tiny wildlife you find in your local environment. It also comes with a guide on how to find microscopic critters and how to treat them well while they are under your attentive care!

    Local pick-up will save you a bunch of money and save me a lot of hassle - I really don't want this thing to get damaged in transit.

    This is a #mutualaid request: I need the money to pay for a mobility scooter, as I've become almost housebound due to MS and Long COVID. Boosts greatly appreciated.

  11. CW: Henry Nowak's death, police etc: good analysis

    Good piece from Fiona Robertson about Henry Nowak's death, making connections with other strands of injustice.

    "Henry died pleading for his life and the systemic cause was not ‘anti-white racism’, it is that we, as a society, do not care about people the system has decided are criminals. ...

    "Henry Nowak died because we have a culture which allows people cast as criminals to be ignored, abused and degraded. ... Rights are not rights unless they are universal."
    graniteandsunlight.wordpress.c

    (CN allusions to murder, rape, epistemic injustice - but not in detail)

  15. Hot week means most #coffee deliveries for #Sheffield and surrounding area done by Royal Mail and Feral Express.

    But personally just under two hours on #ebike for the week doing just over 35km is the way to travel. Cars are too hot - outside is the natural air-conditioning and doesn't require two tonnes of metal to do it.

    Note: God-speed to all the delivery workers out there, without you, we would all struggle in this modern world.

  21. Second time volunteering at a #Waverley Lakes #Parkrun today. Did pre-event set up which allowed me to run it too.

    I did feel like a bit of a spare part as it was set up quite quickly by people who knew what they were doing but I will probably become that person one day - learn by doing/watching.

    No PBs as carrying an injury right now but a fun morning.

  23. Es wurden mehr Fälle aufgespürt vom #ZDF

    Ähm ! Nee ! Angst vor Rassismusvorwürfen ist vorgeschoben. Tatsächlich ist es Mysogenie ! Durch die Fälle der #GroomingGangs #Rotherham gelernt. Vertuscht wird, weil Mädchen, als Menschen systematisch als unwichtiger eingestuft werden
