I gotta say... this out-of-context neverending ad for labels on Facebook took me on quite a journey, and now I think I may need some "Pathological Waste" or "Exempt Human Specimen" stickers.

Shocking news about crumpets. Not sure I'll recover from this.

I started actively using Twitter in 2010 & quickly realised there were other sides to the place outside my hinterland of people there to have fun. Whether you looked for it or not it would pop up in your timeline. Far beyond what I was exposed to irl. So I’ve always thought ‘bubbles’ were bullshit.

A number of artists and creators have made their home on Bluesky, and we hear their concerns with other platforms training on their data. We do not use any of your content to train generative AI, and have no intention of doing so.

Oh dear, now we need a new Archbishop of Canterbury AND a new James Bond, and pretty soon it'll be time for another Willy Wonka and a new Doctor Who. To save energy they should all be amalgamated into a single new character called Archdoctor Bondwonka.
