Let’s be honest does it work or is it that either the guy is suitably hot enough’ or the lady is flattered by any interest rather than the actual content? Having known thoughtful kind friends who got no where with communications they agonised over for hours I am not sure this is a new phenomenon

And c has chosen which content creators it values and whilst they might retain some financial benefit the broader base has vanished. Sadly too many organisations have not yet recognised that there β€˜market’ probably isn’t on it anymore and might be mistaking quantity for quality still. And they don’t

Was the left wrong to leave X for BlueSky? The platform formerly known as Twitter may be horrible, but it's still shaping policy

The platform formerly known as Twitter may be horrible, but it is still shaping policy. So were we all wrong to leave?

There used to be a t-shirt with rage against the washing machine on it - maybe the lad saw it and n’didn’t realise it was a joke

Even if she did it is completely classless to tell the press this had happened.

Tech billionaires seem to be doom prepping. Should we be worried? The debate is ramping up about what happens if - or when - computer intelligence overtakes humans

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... the loons of the modern age - they belong in the lurid accounts of Ancient Rome more than the modern era. These characters are driving AI development whilst building bunkers to protect them from what their perceived risks are. Humanity probably deserves extinction…

The vast majority of the public had (and still mostly don’t) no interest in leaving the ECHR yet now the bbc report it as a hot potato issue. Why because our media seem intent on recycling the garbage coming out of the mouths of extremist voices this Β΄swivel eyed’ loons on the Tory right a decade

How Britain's ECHR membership became a political hot potato The extent to which leaving the Convention would make a difference to immigration has been greatly exaggerated, argues Lord Sumption

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... is it because the bbc have decided to amplify the nonsense coming out of right wing nut jobs?

Brexit killed them off here more as it clashed two competing principles for the centre right - nativism vs free marketing
