Did you know Charles Dickens worked for two midlands newspapers?

It was the Bicester Times, it was the Worcester Times.

It was most excellent.

Asking #BorisJohnson if he lied is like asking a tubby dog with brown smears all over its face, in a kitchen covered in brown paw prints, if it stole and ate all the chocolates.
Dog: "I'll admit I ate the chocolates, but I wasn't aware that I was eating them at the time"

Elon Musk recently said, “press@twitter.com now auto responds with 💩”

I had to test this out for myself.

And got 💩 immediately.

Sunday afternoon fediverse observation - I have been rickrolled more since I joined Mastodon (a few months - 3 times) than I ever was on the other place (14 years - 0 times).

I’m not 100% sure what this says, but I actually quite like it.

I think it’s either that I find the fediverse far more trustworthy (albeit occasionally unwisely) or that people here are more subtle in their implementation.

Anyhoo… thank you for the music.

I see people being deceived by this again and again: ChatGPT can NOT read content from URLs that you give it, but it will pretend that it can (and can be incredibly convincing when it does that)

Constantly debunking this feels like a Sisyphean task, but it's really important to spread this message any time you see anyone falling into this (very understandable) trap

Apparently, cows kill more people than sharks.

I'm just surprised that cows have killed sharks at all.
