Oh dear BBC has gone full Gala magazine (or any other of that type) - about Trump's visit and what Melania was wearing....such drivel "Her choice of bold punctuation of clashing colour palette states clearly Trump's modus operandi that he will continue to do things his own way,"

This is an incredible story when you read it and discover what actually happened was:

- Lammy paid in advance
- The driver tried to extort him for a massive tip
- Drove off with his luggage
- At somepoint clocked he was a VIP
- Is now selling the story to The Sun.

A feature about the film director Coralie Fargeat said: "Fargeat is all smiles in the office of her production company in central London. There's a big plate of salami - she loves salami (I love salami!)."

To clarify, Fargeat was not in the office of her production company but that of Working Title, and she is a vegetarian.

Also, her first film, Le tΓ©lΓ©gramme (2003), wOir several awards, not just two as we said.

Meta to get rid of factcheckers and recommend more political content Mark Zuckerberg says company will β€˜dramatically reduce censorship’ across Facebook, Instagram and Threads

And so we move into the next phase of reality’s Squid Game: the end of fact-checking. From now on, what happened, what you think happened, and what you wanted to have happened, are all of equal value. Other than people getting killed, what could possibly go wrong? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

He died as he lived, clicking β€œForgot password,” then checking his inbox for a code, then putting in that code, then setting up two-step verification, and then waiting for the text message that doesn’t come, and then calling the 800 number, and then downloading an authenticator app, and dying.

Every single racist, rapist and anti-LGBTQ+ bigot is going to start claiming autism as a defence now, and the media are going to let them do it.

Absolutely vile, both for their victims and for people with autism.

Absolutely go f**k yourself. Autism is not a "get out of jail free card" for being an arsehole. Do you know how hard so many autistic individuals work to fit in, to be treated "normally"? This type of crap makes it harder for all of us. Being autistic doesn't give you a pass to be a predator.

An inspirational tale for aspiring journalists.

Remember, if you're a sibling of the former Prime Minister, and close personal friends with the current editor of your favourite magazine, and his ex-wife, you too can achieve your childhood dream of becoming its columnist

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in.

The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers.

This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.
