What an interesting precedent to set

US President Donald Trump told Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney during the World Cup Final on Sunday to get control of wildfires burning across Canada whose smoke has been "poisoning our air" in the US. "If we can help them, we'll help them. But maybe they should pay damages or something," Trump said.

This may be the most British thing I've ever seen

Why would half of Britons not want to visit the moon, with statistics of reasons e.g. just not interested, 23%

This post was about a specific industry (music) but it could describe many different sectors that have shrunk, digitized, corporatized, with secure career paths dissolving, reducing new entrants while AI eats and shits out creative outputs. One of the reasons it feels like our worlds are ending

Thanks, I hate it

Nothing is making me want to quietly end the British monarchy and sell all their properties than seeing this list of potential shame-residences they have to put ex-Prince Andrew in
