A link to a fake BBC article, full of made up quotes.

Pushed by a paid blue tick, of course!

I am looking forward to Bethany England scoring for Bethany England and for England.

A man walks into a library, approaches the librarian, and asks for books about paranoia.

The librarian whispers, "They're right behind you."

I read recently of a foreign visitor to Auckland airport who kept hearing bizarre announcements for a passenger to make their way to the 𝘔𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘦𝘯.

I want to be able to completely drop out of the corporate owned world or as much as possible.
