Fact-checking is not censorship.
Requesting evidence is not censorship.
Refuting falsehoods is not censorship.
Stopping a lie from travelling halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on is not censorship.
But Zuckerberg's grovelling to Trump will sure as hell lead to censorship.

Once #SquidGame2 got going, I was gripped (but it takes its time setting up the premise). (Hint: keep watching once the credits start.)

I was completely gripped by #Conclave Great performances and visually stunning. My take-away on the Catholic Church - terrible institution, great frocks and iconography.

Room full of satire writers will struggle to find a funnier line that the BBC Newsreader just now saying “The Chinese approached Prince Andrew in the hope of finding intelligence’”

Just got round to watching series 3 and 4 of #SlowHorses on Apple TV+ and, honestly, I don’t know what took me so long.

What an emotional #Masterchef final. Three worthy finalists and a very worthy winner. Glad the BBC decided to continue airing the series.

The Courtauld Gallery has pulled off quite the feat with its Monet and the Thames exhibition. Such a privilege to see so many ‘Thames’ paintings under one roof. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. #Monet #Thames #CourtauldGallery #Monet

Wonderful van Gogh exhibition at the National Gallery that tugged at my heart strings. Come for the sunflowers, stay for the gardens and landscapes. Buy, beg, borrow or steal a ticket if you can. #vangogh #PoetsAndLovers #NationalGallery #art

Watts Cemetery Chapel near Guildford in Surrey is such a hidden gem. The contrast of exterior to interior is mind blowing. It was designed by Mary Watts, wife of the painter George Frederick Watts. #architecture #arthistory

I so wanted to love #GladiatorII but I was not entertained. For all its action scenes, I found it a bit dull. Too much rehashed from the original film but not done nearly as well. And Paul Mescal lacks the requisite charisma. In the words of Commodus, I am vexed, terribly vexed. #Gladiator2

Tonight, the Woodcock Moon rises. 🌕
Folklore whispers of Woodcocks awaiting this moonlit night to cross the seas and arrive in huge numbers on our shores.
It was believed tiny Goldcrests journeyed with them—riding on their backs!
Look up for the final Supermoon of the year.
Moonrise: 15:29*

Elon Musk's X is losing users in the U.S., UK, and EU. X's own data proves it.
The former Twitter continues its decline under Musk.
