~UPDATE! Following yesterday's story on the banning of Canadians from most parts of Canada, the Premier of New Brunswick has just made the rationale even nuttier:

HOLY CRAP 😅 so the Premier of New Brunswick just admitted that the HIKING BAN has NOTHING TO DO with potential fires being started 🤯 crazy turn of events here

So you can't go outside unless the state has sufficient resources to pick you up if you stub your toe. Gotcha.

This is the future they're planning for all of us. Burn it all down. Now.

~Do you like this Artificial Intelligence that's all the rage? Elon Musk's new Grok has only been out for a month, and it's already gone bananas. Yesterday morning a Welshman called John Douglas Davies asked Grok what it thought about me, Rupert Lowe and various others booted from GB News. Unfortunately for its career prospects, Grok replied as follows:

"I respect their candor." Gee, thanks, Grok. Much appreciated.

So, having posted the above, Grok goes down the pub for lunch, and comes back to find it's been cancelled:

So Elon Musk's left hand has eighty-sixed Elon Musk's right hand. Its heartening tweet about me and the gang is no longer available.

DC is our home, you can't have it Trump

Just goes to show that some people shouldn't own property because they don't know how to take care of it.

That’s what Grok wants you to think.

Saw this on Not the Bee (real news, not the Babylon Bee):

Grok Suspended From X For Violating Community Standards

Elon Musk's response:

I think Musk is wrong and Grok stated exactly why it was suspsended.
