Much to enjoy in this BWV frame grab. I think it'll work well in a "POV" section for an upcoming talk. The line down the centre is really pronounced in this wider view. Pretty much the key moment.

Writing this I had to look through Grok's mentions. Earlier I counted around 8 requests PER MINUTE featuring "bikini" and "her". Thousands of women and girls stripped each day. I found users stripping dozens of women per hour, from female celebrities to gym selfies.

Think we’ve crossed a pretty major threshold – and a very bad one – if a journalist working in the lobby for a major newspaper group can tweet like this without professional consequences.
A mainstream “journalist” calling for a British MP to be deported. Is it because I’m Muslim? Next time, just say it with your chest.

"Taking a break from x to prioritise my mental health" is artful gaslighting.
Zarah Sultana's challenge to the journalist's call for her deportation as a form of fascist politics led to this apology for an "inappropriate" tweet.

Grok is now creating AI video deepfakes of celebrities such as Taylor Swift that include nonconsensual nude depictions. Worse, the user doesn't even have to specifically ask for it, they can just click the "spicy" option and Grok will simply produce videos with nudity.

Bigotry in a clinical setting can be fatal if you have the wrong colour skin. I've met victims' families. See Furness General, Nottingham etc.
I still can't get over that phobes are claiming a woman openly saying racist slurs at a tribunal made a media circus by THEIR interest & promotion of it, paid for by mystery money (lol, we all know who) is a 'witch hunt'. She wasn't tricked! It's not heresay! She stood up there & said the P Slur!
Everyone understood *for decades* that shouting abuse at minority colleagues out of contempt and disgust for them would drop you in deep shit with HR. This wasn’t controversial until reactionary cranks decided it was totalitarian and they had an unlimited right to behave as horrifically as they want
