Inspired from a post by @pikat.io, I thought I'd explain why I'm here.
I realised I was spending far too much time feeding Musk's trolls. I had become this guy, and I don't want to be this guy anymore:

I've just seen an utterly disgraceful AI-generated scam ad using your voice & likeness on YouTube. Unfortunately I couldn't report it.
The ad made no mention of who was behind it; it simply had a QR code that "you" urged people to scan.

As you've disabled replies and quote posts on this, here's my take:
1. Vandalism of this nature is wrong.
2. Organisations like Policy Exchange shouldn't exist unless they're completely open about who funds them.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.

Recently I found myself on Antipope Instagram, where there are endless reels of the current Antipope of the Palmarian Catholic Church.
This is, of course, extremely my jam, and I started reading up on them hoping to find some wild theology, but instead I found something WAY better...

This is an excellent takedown of the Mail's modus operandi.

Another day, another wildly misleading Daily Mail headline.
I mean, it certainly would be headline worthy if police had turned up and accused her of committing a crime by writing innocent FB posts.
But that's not what happened…
