The Guardian
The Guardian is a British daily newspaper. It was founded in Manchester in 1821 as The Manchester Guardian and changed its name in 1959, followed by a move to London. Along with its sister paper, The Guardian Weekly, The Guardian is part of the Guardian Media Group, owned by the Scott Trust Limited. The trust was created in 1936 to "secure the financial and editorial independence of The Guardian in perpetuity and to safeguard the journalistic freedom and liberal values of The Guardian free from commercial or political interference". The trust was converted into a limited company in 2008, with a constitution written so as to maintain for The Guardian the same protections as were built into the structure of the Scott Trust by its creators. Profits are reinvested in its journalism rather than distributed to owners or shareholders. It is considered a newspaper of record in the UK.

The SimpsonsThey have brought TV’s most famous cartoon couple to life in France for the last 38 years. Philippe Peythieu and Véronique Augereau tell all about working and living together for so long, still being lovebirds – and rarely arguing The Simpsons is the biggest cartoon comedy in the world, with suburban couple Homer and Marge at its heart. From their beginnings as high-school sweethearts to the travails of married life, they’re an unbreakable pair. Gag-heavy as it may be, it’s also a series with plenty of sentimental plots, from Homer giving up his beloved Duff beer for a month to prove his love to Marge, to Marge composing a heartfelt poem to a dying Homer (miraculously, he makes it through his sushi-induced food poisoning). Not even the temptations of a brunch-loving bowling instructor called Jacques or a doughnut-guzzling redhead called Mindy could get between them. Plus, of course, they enjoy the occasional “snuggle” (even on a miniature golf course … ). Continue reading...

Chinese investors placing high value on AI despite unpopularity of Sanxingdui: Future Past China’s first fully AI-generated movie has flopped, earning just 1.7m yuan (£191,000) at the box office despite costing “tens of millions” to make, according to its producer. But is it any good? The Guardian watched Sanxingdui: Future Past in a virtually empty cinema in Beijing, and found it no worse than plenty of human-centred mindless action flicks. Continue reading...

With globe-spanning artists – including Charlotte Church doing angry electropop – the Flow project is hoping to make an impact at this month’s Cop31 Amid tense and long-winded negotiations, and with the future of the planet at stake, emotions can often run high at Cop climate summits. But last year, when the annual conference arrived in Brazil, one UN official was unexpectedly moved to tears by five women singing about the power of water. “She gave me a massive hug after the event and said, ‘We need to bring music into Cop,’” says Nikita Llerena, the project manager for Flow, a music collective that’s hoping to bring art to the centre of the climate movement. What started as a handful of musicians meeting over Zoom last year has grown into a full-length album that unites female artists from around the world, including Charlotte Church, Maxine Peake and Nadine Shah. This month, members of the collective will return for Cop31, in Turkey, where they have been promoted to a slot at Global Cultural Action’s opening event. Continue reading...

The thrilling and twisty Netflix show is in its fourth season. If you’re not caught up with this French caper you’re missing out If you’re not watching Lupin, you’re missing out on one of the most charming, thrilling and twisty capers of all time. Netflix’s adaptation of the popular French drama first hit our screens back in 2021 and it is the most wildly ambitious – and successful – to date. The brilliant writing, terrific ensemble cast and the effortless charm and panache of its lead actor, Omar Sy, make it ridiculously watchable. The series is based on the adventures of Arsène Lupin, conceived by the French author Maurice LeBlanc. In France, Lupin is an almost totemic cultural figure. LeBlanc penned 24 books about the definitive gentleman thief in his lifetime, the first being 1907’s Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Cambrioleur. And the 119-year-old character is everything readers crave: suave, mysterious and cunning, with an unerring ability to run circles around law enforcement. Continue reading...

FriendshipI thought about her a lot after our friendship imploded. When our birthdays rolled around, I wondered what we’d be doing if we were still in touch I was 26 when I lost my childhood friend. By that point, I’d known her for almost two-thirds of my life. Our first conversation was at an ice-skating party when we were nine years old. I’d been nervous in the weeks leading up to the party because I couldn’t ice-skate. Every time the Spice Girls’ 2 Become 1 music video came on, the sight of Victoria Beckham singing on an ice rink filled me with impending doom. I was sure I would disgrace myself at the party.

US politicsFrom Hamilton to the ‘Epstein class’, we have long been fascinated by a charismatic yet shadowy set of power brokers. American aristocracy is alive and well Americans remain awed by the extravagance of the super-rich, oddly enticed and generally accepting of the fact that the monied elite have privileges that they use to their own advantage. After the Hollywood celebrity and the professional athlete, the figure who invites the most curiosity is what is colloquially termed “powerbroker”. We’re talking about the dealmaker, the inside player – or in the words of Sade’s song, a “smooth operator”. Continue reading...

ExhibitionsFrom Virginia Woolf’s horrifying views on eugenics to James Strachey’s seminal translations of Freud, the Bloomsbury set didn’t only experience mental illness, they shaped how society thinks about it ‘As an experience,” Virginia Woolf wrote in 1930, “madness is terrific and not to be sniffed at … In its lava, I still find most of the things I write about.” Woolf’s 1941 suicide by drowning in the River Ouse, her pockets weighted with stones, is usually framed as evidence of her tortured genius. But a new exhibition at Charleston in Lewes radically excavates this narrative while challenging ideas about mental illness. Continue reading...

SlaveryAndy Burnham’s intervention is important. Because when it comes to Britain’s role in the transatlantic trade, the collective amnesia is stunning Departing from his predecessors’ stances, the UK prime minister, Andy Burnham, surprised us all when he stated he was open to listening to calls for an apology for the UK’s role in centuries of transatlantic enslavement. King Charles is expected to speak with “unflinching honesty” and “sincere sorrow” about the UK’s role in the transatlantic slave trade at the Commonwealth heads of government meeting in Antigua and Barbuda today. Burnham was quick to add that financial reparations were off the table. But he was in favour of discussions about debt restructuring – one of the key concerns of the Caribbean community (Caricom) and the African Union. The opposition, led by Kemi Badenoch, argued that apologies were a distraction. Beyond political bickering and point-scoring lies a deeper question. Why does Britain struggle to fully understand its colonial past and to grapple with the negative impact of its legacies? One the one hand, the country celebrates its historical conquests as far back as the Battle of Hastings and applauds the wealth that derived from the products of colonisation, such as cotton . On the other, it refuses to accept that harm was caused to populations whose lands it forcefully occupied – and that the trafficking of African captives has changed how we think and what we assume about different racial groups to this day.

Harvard UniversityDemand for individual applicant records as part of purported civil rights review fails on procedural grounds A federal district court judge dismissed a lawsuit on Monday filed by the Trump administration seeking individual applicant records from Harvard, finding the government failed to meet procedural requirements before filing the lawsuit against the university. Judge Myoung J Joun did not rule on the merits of the case, rather he granted a request from Harvard to dismiss the case on procedural grounds, finding that the justice department failed to demonstrate it took necessary steps to seek voluntary compliance before moving for judicial enforcement.

Compared to infants in the state’s low-pollution areas, the odds were 4.3 times higher for babies from toxic hotspots A study looking at babies hospitalized in New Orleans found that babies born to mothers from neighborhoods in south-east Louisiana with high levels of industrial pollution were four times more likely to suffer from severe congenital heart defects. Published last week, the study in the Environmental Health journal looked at medical records for 454 infants hospitalized at the two major Louisiana hospitals that can provide surgery for heart defects in babies. Researchers traced back where the mothers of these infants lived, examining the levels of industrial toxic pollution in their communities using the US Environmental Protection Agency’s risk-screening database. Compared to infants from low-pollution areas in the region, the odds of congenital heart defects were 4.3 times higher for infants from toxic hotspots, and 3.1 times higher for infants from places with intermediate levels of pollution.
