  1. @winnipegfreepress #trump says he heard 4 or 5 shots - but the account of what happened was that the suspect camped "for nearly 12 hours with food and a rifle but fled without firing shots". So if no one fired their weapon what are these phantom "shots" #Donald is talking about? #republicanspin #falsenarrative #embellishment #herotozero #uspoli #Election2024USA

  2. A quotation from Gaiman, Neil:

  3. The highlight of our evening was watching “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story — The unexaggerated true story about the greatest musician and sex symbol of our time.” Well there may have been an “embellishment” here or there. Hilarious! #funny #comedy #movie #weirdal #embellishment
