The full moon has reminded me of my most important (now deleted) tweet.

And that is that ‘werewolf’ should be a protected term like ‘dentist’ or ‘building society’, qualified in large part by said beast being wolf-like but primarily bipedal rather than quadrupedal.

So Musk, champion of free speech and opponent of anything being branded misinformation, is threatening the ‘hammer of justice’ upon those who spread the *correct* story of foreign interference in US elections?
