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.

Wakehurst Place’s enchanting #GlowWild has become one of my Christmas highlights. This year didn’t disappoint.

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

It’s the ⁦‪@SmallStepsDocs‬⁩ annual shoe auction! There’s only 1 day, 4 hrs and 51minutes to buy these beauties! Go on, be a devil…

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

Watching ‘Rage Against the Regime’ on BBC2 and in awe of the men and women who stood up against the oppression and brutality of the Iranian regime.

Gobsmacked. And disappointed. #DragraceUK

Winter morning in the shires. #frost #winter

Someone called this mass exodus from Twitter ‘the fall of the Broman Empire’ and I died laughing. 💀

if you loved the view from the cliffs in #FishermansFriends and want to help us stop this wholly inappropriate seaweed farm from being plonked in the middle of it then please do your bit and sign this: chng.it/ZYdQbQdqb4

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*

Musk's lost the Morris dancers. It's Over.

Here's another great starter pack including lots of political voices you might have been following on "the hell site" Thanks @joshfwd.bsky.social for putting it together Just one click to follow all ...or pick from the list.. go.bsky.app/FpbsVro

I’m starting to understand what it must have been like when Caligula made his horse a senator.

Twitter has lost nearly one-fifth of its daily active user base in the U.S. and a whopping one-third in the UK.  mashable.com/article/elon...
