A "recommended" post on LinkedIn begins with "We're all guilty of using AI to polish our social media content" and I am overcome with a very strong urge to swear in the comments. Because no, we all fucking are not, actually.

Andrew Tate has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm.
Nigel Farage described him as "an important voice for young men". That tells you all you need to know about Farage's moral compass.

Found on the website of Scarfolk Council, a beermat for Reform UK voters.
(It's not a real council & is worth a visit if you're a 1970s child still traumatised by public safety information films.)
