In his special report "A calamity of lost youth", @toby00green looks at the high number of deaths among young people. Alarming but largely ignored by the media and politicians:

AND @ONS has changed the way it counts people who have died!

Imagine discovering a medical breakthrough, proving it worked, saving lives, and then being called dangerous, unnatural, and untrustworthy for saying so. Three hundred years later, the playbook feels strangely familiar.

She started life in a brothel, sold oranges in a theatre, became the star everyone wanted to watch, and ended up capturing the attention of a king.

A wind with a voice, a novel 20 years in the making. Sarah Hall’s Helm turns climate crisis, myth, desire, and radical optimism into something wild, haunting, and impossible to ignore.

We don’t have a scarcity problem, we have a distribution and priority problem. Between excess and deprivation lies a gap shaped by policy, systems, and collective choices.

We like to believe we’re living through something entirely new, but history keeps quietly reminding us otherwise. The real shift isn’t just technological, it’s mental...

Convenience isn’t neutral, it rewires you. The more we hand over thinking, the less we practice it, and the harder it becomes to take it back. Tools should extend us, not replace us. Stay sharp.

A city where time stretches, conversations linger, and even a cup of coffee feels like belonging. Vienna isn’t just beautiful, it’s deeply lived in. ☕✨

We like to think of ourselves as animal lovers. We share videos, rescue pets, and speak out against cruelty. But every day, our habits tell a different story.
The truth isn’t hidden, it’s just inconvenient.

Behind the façade of a prestigious boarding school, a culture of violence, fear and silence went unchallenged for years. Charles Spencer exposes not just abuse, but how it became normalised, ignored, and quietly endured.

For decades, science fiction warned us about dystopian futures. But some writers argue those visions aren’t predictions, they’re thought experiments. And the stories we choose to believe may shape the future we build.

Once the fourth-largest inland sea on Earth, the Aral Sea has nearly vanished. What remains is a toxic desert, a history of secret Soviet bioweapons testing, and a landscape so strange it gave rise to UFO stories and time-bending legends.

What began with a suspicious bank statement uncovered a disturbing reality: an elderly woman had been quietly defrauded by the people meant to care for her.

When judges couldn’t tell the difference between real poetry and AI-generated entries, it sparked a bigger question: if machines can create like us, what happens to the meaning of creative work?

After emails surfaced showing supportive messages from Peter Mandelson, the family of Virginia Giuffre questioned why someone with those associations was ever appointed UK ambassador to the US.
What do you think?

Billionaires preparing for the apocalypse isn’t a conspiracy theory anymore.
The same people shaping the modern economy are also building escape plans from its worst outcomes.
What do you think bunker culture says about the future?

Frustration with U.S. politics has reached a strange point.
Some people are starting to wonder if an economic crash is the only thing that would wake voters up.
Do you think economic pain actually changes how people vote?

We spoke with Chris van Tulleken, author of Ultra-Processed People, the book that changed how Britain talks about food.
From ultra-processed products to poverty, he argues this isn’t about personal failure, it’s about a food system designed this way.

For decades, politicians have promised to “stop the boats” while quietly relying on the labour that keeps the economy running. Fear makes good headlines. Facts make inconvenient policy.
Migration isn’t a glitch in the system. It’s part of how the system works.
