we just sort of felt obliged to do one
Cartoon by stephen collins: script follows:

[Scene is a SUPERMARKET. An OLD LADY is struggling to reach the top shelf of the cleaning products aisle. A little BOY in a bobble hat is looking at her as she strains to reach up]. 

1
BOY:
Are you OK?

2
OLD LADY:
Ooh...
I'm trying to reach the Cleenco Multi Surface Cleaner

3
OLD LADY:
My tall husband used to reach it down for me...

4
OLD LADY:
before he tragically died.

5
BOY:
Don’t worry

6
BOY:
I’m an unrealistically empathetic Christmas Advert Child

7
BOY:
I can randomly summon some fairies with your dead husband’s face, to get a bottle down for you!

8
[Pause while the old lady looks at him askance]

9
OLD LADY:
Bit weird but OK

10
[Indie ballad plays]

[tiny fairies with an old man’s face fly down from the shelf with a bottle of CLEENCO Multi Surface Cleaner]

11
[Show the fairies giving the old lady the bottle]

12
[Final panel shows a product shot of the bottle]:

CLEENCO Multi Surface Cleaner

(We felt obliged to do a Christmas ad)

I swear that if I can't get a Guinness when I want one because some Gen Z kid wants to make a TikTok, I'll split *their* G.

A terrific theory that pairs well with the Economist's terrific and terrifying chart of Musk's tweeting.
A chart showing Elon Musk's near-24 hour tweeting.

Dr Oz?! Is Trump just trolling us now? In some perverse way I'm almost looking forward to seeing how insane the next four years are going to be.
