Calling in to report approx 15 bad typos in Matthew Lindsay's piece in my print edition (Pressreader). One can hardly blame him in his rush, but do you not do any sub-editing or proof-reading in the office? Truncated sentences, badly wrong words spoiled the reading.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky is facing the second-biggest test of his presidency — and it may prove even trickier than leading the country's resistance against Russia.

The Russian nation has done something imbecilic. Why? And who is responsible?

The questions Solovyov has never asked his viewers about the "SMO".
Meanwhile in Russia: state TV host Vladimir Solovyov was horrified by the falling Russian robot and other technological shortcomings, especially in comparison with robots produced by China and Elon Musk.

Here’s fun: just bought this old painting from a charity shop as I liked the style & pensive expression.
After I paid, the lady at the till told me the person who donated it said they think it’s is maybe of the guy those books by the door are about.
As I left, I looked at the books: it’s John Buchan

My photo of the stag on the hill that I posted earlier reminded me of a photo that I took many years back. Even then someone suggested that I had 'photoshopped' him in. I didn't of course, but A.I. will mean everything you look at from now should be viewed with suspicion.

Mine will always be real.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

One of the most eclectic tenement facades in the city can be found on Broomhill Dr. Designed by William M. Whyte, who was also responsible for Balmoral Crescent off Queen's Drive, it was built between 1902-4. The style can only be described as "baronial fairytale".

Yes, yes, freedom of speech, but it goes with freedom to escort people off the premises without explanation, and only one of these freedoms was exercised pre-8am on Friday, setting the tone for the next 3 days. That Tom Watson was the one to have to apologise says it all about the PGA of America.
