"Grok is like a man who has been in a pub all day, drunkenly stumbling from one unsubstantiated opinion hub to another, and is then invited to present the information he has gleaned to the world on News at Ten. A bit like Reginald Bosanquet did in the 70s. " www.thenerve.news/p/stewart-le...
Stewart Lee: Using Grok is like believing what your farting uncle says at Christmas
Elon Musk’s AI service is so drunkenly, transparently biased that it would be funny – if it weren’t a mortal threat to democracy

Excited to find I recognised one of the contestants on Strictly, but it turns out not to be the one from Amazing Spaces.

What is quality of life? It can't be measured and is not a number. Clive Lewis: eastangliabylines.co.uk/democracy/ri...
Richness of life can’t be measured in GDP – what happened to joy?
GDP is up, but who’s better off? Clive Lewis, Norwich South MP, argues poverty is growing, wages lag, rents soar. And that’s not prosperity

Paul Merton on Room 101 says the rule "red and green should never be seen" relates to clothing. I thought it related to train signals?

Some people are very concerned about the Channel 4 programme Could Nigel Farage become Prime Minister?
He didn't explain how he would fund his policies and described them as aspirations not promises. Do you think people will see through him in time?

In-bewhelmed – neither overwhelmed, nor underwhelmed, but somewhere in-between. Usage “I was in-bewhelmed by the trip into London today”, as opposed to “The journey into London was neither overwhelming nor underwhelming but somewhere in-between”. I think it is more quickstinct 😉

Donald Trump sold bibles.

Jimmy Carter followed one.

Trump cheated on all his wives.

Carter only had one & was faithful.

Donald Trump spent his post-presidency selling garbage like gold shoes and trading cards with AI images of himself.

Jimmy Carter helped build homes for those without shelter.

It is difficult to tell which season it is. But luckily it is Christmas Day!
Still have lavender and verbena in flower at the same time as primrose and cowslips. #MerryChristmas #Garden #Climate
