The WMP are not a good police force! In practice, the trigger for a change of leadership shouldn’t be “use AI to provide false info to after becoming part of a national story”.

Lor bless me, sir, but I do love tales of that sort. And I believe them too, whatever Ted may say. Milves, sir! I would dearly love to see them. Couldn’t you take me to see Milves, sir, when you go?

while Dot and Bubble was one of the better episodes of recent Doctor Who, today remembered that there's an episode of Stargate SG-1 from the year 2000 that has the exact same twist.

While I love my niche stupid hobby of historical board gaming, sometimes it does just make me want to scream. Take the latest example, a board game about the Irish Potato Famine where you get to compete with friends to see who survives best (?)

Easy-to-learn, card-driven game, rich with historical detail; explores 19th-century Irish expansion, blight, famine, & emigration. 2-5P

Have any of these twats actually been presented with these numbers and asked what the fuck they're talking about?
Minister of State Alex Norris tells the BBC he won't personally come off X because it's important for communicating with voters.
None of his tweets for the last month has more than 1000 views.

This is a truism about what the job of journalism is that I probably heard as a teenager but I feel like I have been alive long enough and vaguely media-connected long enough to say that I don't think that many journalists think it is their job?
As my journalism tutor said" “If someone says it’s raining and another person says it’s not, it’s not your job to quote them both. It’s your job to look out the fucking window and find out which is true.”
I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance".
It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder".
The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.

Being 101 years old and clearly dying but not having actually died yet does not seem to be a very good time is all I can say based on having spent the last couple of days with my granny.
