One of the top replies under an image on X of Renee Good's body slumped over in her car after an ICE agent shot her is another user asking Grok to put her body in a bikini. Grok then generated the image.

BBC journalists have been banned from describing the kidnapped Venezuelan leader as having been kidnapped.

The BBC News Editor has sent this to BBC journalists.

Nothing is wilder than watching US pundits on many sides of the aisle argue about whether Trump got the right permissions to invade another nation, instead of, you know, whether any part of the US government should be allowed to once again invade a nation based on US preferences.

The US attack on Venezuela is rampantly and shamelessly illegal.

Donald Trump has repeatedly made it clear that the US wants to steal Venezuela's resources.

This gangsterism, trashing anything left of the 'international order', will pave the way for global violent mayhem.

Two things I'm going to try and bear in mind this year:

- It doesn't matter what I'm writing, so long as I can write when I feel like it, because the most important thing is that I'm enjoying it

- Regaining any level of fitness is a marathon, not a sprint. Any progress is good progress

Good riddance to 2025.

May 2026 be kinder to us all

Not me getting teary eyed at a TRAILER for Shrinking season three.

(One of the best shows Apple has to offer, IMO.)

Me: What?

Wake Up Dead Man

Good:
- Daniel Craig and Josh O'Connor were great together
- It made me hoot with laughter several times

Not so good:
- Underutilised/boring ensemble characters by comparison to other KO films
- Way too long

Knives Out is still my favourite.

I can forgive Westworld somewhat for its ending because I double checked that it was cancelled before they could round it up, but couldn't they have hedged their bets even a little? The last two episodes were so dang depressing even with the 'possibility of more'.

The Avatar TLA skins are back in Overwatch, so of course I had to get Appa Orisa 😀 Bossed it with Orisa through three tank games to three wins, yip yipping all the way 💪

My dental surgery: A quick reminder that your check up is due, which means travelling over 100 miles to a town that now fills you with dread to have the same condescending ***** from last year check your teeth ☺️

Stupid messed up dentistry system 🤬

Ignoring the anxiety by watching more Westworld 🥲

Very grateful for my flu jab right now, because I'm on my fourth day of feeling so exhausted and sore, but I know it could be worse.

I've kept myself entertained by:
playing Dispatch (3rd time, heh)
watching Jingle Bell Heist (actually decent Xmas move)
and S1 of Truth Be Told (goes so dark o.O)

Five of the anti genocide protestors on hunger strike that the British govt have held as terrorists have been hospitalised. This Scottish newspaper is the only news outlet in GB that thinks this is newsworthy.

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

I think before I realised I was burnt out from a lifetime of masking, I could muster my way through games (and other things) that I maybe I wasn't enjoying so much. Now? I got completely turned off by the first 20 odd minutes of AC Valhalla. It's especially bad after Dispatch being SO fun.

Dispatch gets a 9/10 from me. The story was superb: very funny (and rude), but also made me cry. I adored Robert, and the supporting cast was 👍

It took me longer than I would've liked to get to grips with the main dispatch system (👎 RNG element) and hacking felt tedious.

Otherwise, a great time 😊

Just finished 6/8 and all I can say is 😭😭
Played 3/8 chapters of Dispatch. I love it so much already 😍

My first shift was incredible, and my second was God awful 🤣 Here's hoping I can turn it around on the next one.

Controls on PS5 make it hard to move around the dispatch board, which ain't great tbh. That's one of my only gripes.
I used it to get Dispatch and AC Valhalla :D
