I want to thank Elon Musk for attacking Wikipedia for being a part of the internet he can't currently control. It reminded me to donate to support Wikipedia, the best remaining thing about the internet. You can donate here: donate.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?...

What it means for China👇

Jeremy Clarkson, who owes his fame & fortune in large part to the BBC, sneers at the brilliant @vicderbyshire.bsky.social for being ‘classic BBC’ when she uses *his own words* to describe his position.
