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.

President of Castilla-La Mancha region says numbers likely to rise after crash in Toledo Full report from Spain At least 30 people are believed to have died after two high-speed trains collided in the province of Toledo in Spain, with concerns the death toll could be much higher. The number of people affected is expected to rise ( 10:46 ) , local authorities said, with growing concerns about a “major tragedy” ( 11:03 ). The affected trains are understood to be Iryo 7076 with 146 passengers plus one baby on board, and AVE 2080 with 397 passengers on board, making it 544 people in total on board of both train ( 11:00 ). The incident comes less than a year after a similar crash in Adamuz, the province of Córdoba, which killed 46 and injured 152 in January this year ( 11:00 ). Spain’s high-speed railway network ranks as the largest in Europe and the second biggest in the world after China, carrying 25 million passengers in 2024. Spain’s prime minister Pedro Sánchez said he was “shocked” by the accident ( 11:05 ), with transport minister Óscar Puente working at the emergency control centre to “obtain all possible information about what happened” ( 11:16 ).

AI (artificial intelligence)Both of these threats have the same roots: private entities seeking to cash in.

How about throwing AI extinction in the mix? Continue reading...

Indigenous peoplesThe Waorani leader says millennia of living in harmony with their surroundings give Indigenous groups unique insights into the consumerist west Every Waorani child knows the story of the boa’s mouth. How the snake inches forward, watching, its movements almost imperceptible, before it strikes, swallowing its victim whole. Nemonte Nenquimo knows the boa’s bite. Beguiled as a young girl by the blue eyes and bright dresses of an American missionary child in her Amazon village in Ecuador , she consented to be baptised and left home to study at a church school.

A new documentary follows the Chicagoan from child trumpet prodigy to Gabriel-singing icon and DIY maverick. ‘Not everybody wants to see musical genius’, he says At We Out Here festival in Dorset in August, thousands of people could be heard singing a trumpet melody as if it was a giant brass-band karaoke session. On stage was Peven Everett, performing a rendition of Gabriel , one of the most celebrated anthems in dance-music history. Co-created with producer Roy Davis Jr, the best-known version, which blew up in UK clubs in the mid-90s, is a spiritual garage-house track about the “archangel of love” that can bring both punters and DJs to tears. But Everett is much more than one song. Damon Albarn of Gorillaz tells me that “Peven has a once-in-a-generation voice … he’s a great inspiration to us all.” We Out Here founder, Gilles Peterson says that the Chicagoan is, alongside Detroit’s Moodymann and Amp Fiddler, “the closest thing dance music has to a Prince-type figure”. A prolific multi-instrumentalist and one-man cottage industry, Everett’s catalogue spans more than 500 tracks, across house, neo-soul, hip-hop, samba and more. Continue reading...

US newsDepartment of Justice says it intends to appeal as administration tries to keep president’s ally Bill Essayli in office Sign up for the Breaking News US email The US Federal Reserve is expected to leave interest rates unchanged on Wednesday during its last rate-setting meeting before the midterm elections, keeping rates at one of the highest pre-election levels seen in over 20 years. Last month, Fed officials raised rates for the first time since 2023, citing rising inflation. Inflation has hovered for years above the Fed’s target rate of 2%, and for most of this year, the annualized inflation rate has remained above 3%. Continue reading...

Far-right senator and family expected to land in US after crossing into Argentina and then flying out of Ecuador A jet carrying the far-right Brazilian senator Flávio Bolsonaro has left Guayaquil in Ecuador and is on its way to Miami, Florida, where it is expected to arrive mid-morning on Wednesday. After losing Sunday night’s election to the incumbent president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva , Bolsonaro disappeared for more than 24 hours, until Argentina’s migration authorities said he had entered the country by land on Tuesday night.

MississippiSeveral homes have been purchased near datacenters and one resident said realtor outlined target to buy more than 400 People in a Mississippi neighborhood, many of whom dislike a nearby power plant central to Elon Musk ’s artificial intelligence ambitions, have received a stark offer – to sell their houses to his company and make way. Real estate agents have been going door to door in Southaven, Mississippi, on behalf of xAI, Musk’s AI company that was folded into the SpaceX entity in February, touting a deal to purchase houses as long as the owners agree to not join a lawsuit against the company over the power plant’s noise.

Hospitality industryExcuse me if I feel no sympathy for the property owners who have threatened strike action because guests no longer have to do their chores. Whatever happened to the company’s initial guff about building community? To Airbnb or not to Airbnb, that is the question. Would you like to help pay someone’s mortgage and clean their house and fork out an extortionate cleaning fee and abide by a 90-page list of house rules? Or would you like to check into a nice hotel where you get fresh towels and a tiny chocolate on your pillow? Airbnb’s business is booming , so plenty of people are still choosing the first option. Nevertheless, the hospitality giant seems to have realised travellers are sick of being handed ridiculous chore lists, and is reining in some of its more tyrannical hosts. Last week Airbnb posted updated guidelines stating guests can no longer be asked to complete tasks that “require significant effort or time or would typically be performed by a cleaner”.

Gullah GeecheeExhibition at the Cameron Art Museum in North Carolina centers the work of artist Jonathan Green, tying together contemporary art and Gullah heritage In Time to Rejoice, a 2005 oil on canvas painting by artist Jonathan Green, nine women, each dressed in vibrantly colored shirts and skirts, with wide-brimmed hats obscuring their faces, gather in a clearing. They’re facing one woman who dances in the center, her arms outstretched, seemingly in ecstasy, a leg towards the sky. Her hat hovers off her head; only her face is visible, though, with her eyes closed, she doesn’t gaze at the viewer. It is an intimate scene, perhaps of sisters, friends or comrades. The painting evokes a moment from Toni Morrison’s novel Beloved, in which Baby Suggs offers freedom and peace to formerly enslaved people who are gathered with her in a clearing: “In this here place, we flesh; flesh that weeps, laughs; flesh that dances on bare feet in grass. Love it. Love it hard. Yonder they do not love your flesh. They despise it … And O my people they do not love your hands. Those they only use, tie, bind, chop off and leave empty. Love your hands! Love them. Raise them up and kiss them … and all your inside parts that they’d just as soon slop for hogs, you got to love them. The dark, dark liver – love it, love it and the beat and beating heart, love that too.” Continue reading...

Since 1994, Turner Classic Movies has been a haven for old film lovers. Now with Skydance’s David Ellison calling the shots, fans are panicking over its unclear future I have made many attempts to lessen the existential disaster we call Tuesday – tacos, trivia – but lately only one thing works. Every night just before 8pm, I hide my phone under a pillow in the next room, plate up a carb-heavy dinner, and turn on Turner Classic Movies (TCM) for Sweater Weather, a series of films dedicated to the transitional season. Every Tuesday in October, Alicia Malone, an affable Australian film historian wearing business casual and a flippy bob, introduces a double feature. These are often midcentury melodramas featuring striking leads, serpentine plots, and the burnt hues of fall rendered in indulgent Technicolor. Like All That Heaven Allows (1955), about a widow who finds herself crushed under the weight of 1950s suburban conformity – and the teeny waistline of her swing skirts – while nursing a crush on her much-younger gardener. Or Leave Her to Heaven (1945), about a beautiful socialite so obsessed with her hapless husband that she will kill anyone who threatens their bond. Continue reading...

After an exit poll that gave the opposition hope, reality dawned. With all the votes on the right, the prospects for the left and centre now look bleak Following Israel’s nail-biting election , nearly every political community in the country experienced triumph and despair. The initial results swung wildly from the first exit polls to the slow real-vote count; the bloc of parties loyal to the prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, might yet win, and each side feels that its fate hangs in the balance. So far, only one certainty remains: Israel’s bitter divisions are deeper than ever. Dahlia Scheindlin is a political analyst in Tel Aviv Continue reading...

Mexican police had said they found Shayna Feinman in Tijuana, raising the hopes of missing Arizonan’s family Arizona authorities say their Mexican counterparts were resoundingly mistaken when they publicly claimed recently that they found alive a woman who was feared slain after disappearing in 2024 – a turn of events that her sister has called “turmoil” and “heartbreaking”. The case in question centers on Shayna Feinman, who was reported missing in rural Yavapai county, Arizona, in March 2024 at age 38. Continue reading...

In social media posts, president has said network is ‘doing little to help’ Republican party in midterm elections Donald Trump has always viewed conservative media as a tool to help him and his party achieve political victory and stay in power. But with polls flashing red for his party ahead of next week’s midterm elections, the president and his allies have trained their fire on the most prominent player in the space: Fox News. For years, the president has criticized Fox’s non-partisan polling operation, and in recent weeks he has called out the network for not sufficiently airing his midterm rallies – even when they are not particularly newsworthy.

Jeanette WintersonThe author believes we are at a turning point as a species – and even in the shadow of big tech it’s up to us how we want to proceed ‘I am a storyteller by trade,” writes Jeanette Winterson on the first page of her 2021 book 12 Bytes , an idiosyncratic and thought-provoking series of essays in which she considered just how artificial intelligence might change everything about our lives. “And I know everything we do is a fiction until it’s a fact: the dream of flying, the dream of space travel, the dream of speaking to someone instantly, across time and space, the dream of not dying – or of returning.” She had already been thinking about our possible futures for at least 15 years – her 2007 novel, The Stone Gods, for instance, imagined a post-climate catastrophe world populated by robots and humans who never age, while 12 Bytes was preceded by Frankisstein: A Love Story , which alternates a recreation of the summer Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein with a trans doctor’s travels among present-day cryogenecists and AI-enabled robots.

A nine-month Guardian investigation has revealed that when a landlord evicts someone in Louisiana, they can choose to file the eviction in a venue where a portion of the court fee goes directly into the pocket of the judge. The Guardian found one justice of the peace in the suburbs of New Orleans who may well be the highest paid judge in the country. His court took in nearly $1m in revenue last year – and he personally took home over $400,000. Somehow, this is all legal. Kai Wright speaks with Guardian US southern bureau chief Oliver Laughland and data editor Will Craft about the real-life ramifications of this system for tenants, and Laughland and Craft explain how they dug through more than 11,000 pages of eviction records to discover this little noticed judicial system that evicts thousands of people a year. A former judge called the system 'blatantly unconstitutional' Oliver Laughland and Will Craft’s Guardian investigation on the 'big business' of evictions Continue reading...

Real Madrid forward was dropped by brands for comments Chinese media generally steered clear of outlining It’s been a bad start to the week for the France forward Kylian Mbappé. He missed out on joining the elite roster of Ballon d’Or winners, and instead became the latest high-profile addition to a far less illustrious list – that of foreign brands and individuals charged with “hurting the feelings of the Chinese people”. The saga began when a video of the Real Madrid player making light of a meme involving him and China’s former leader Mao Zedong began spreading. Continue reading...

From the packaging to the products, brands aimed at young people have come a long way There’s some great new skincare in town for teens – and none of it preys on insecurities. I really like Equals Even , a British-made line for young people. The founders are two female doctors (and mothers), not dermatologists, which feels appropriate, since frontline physicians manage more routine, everyday teen skin struggles than specialist consultants tackling severe conditions and cutting out cancers.

Psychopatriarchy is jet fuel to racism, colonialism, imperialism and capitalism For those of us who have spent our lives trying to dismantle this endlessly destructive paradigm of patriarchy, it has become increasingly clear in recent months that something more terrifying is afoot. The wheels are off the cart. We are in the midst of a chaotic, demented acceleration of the most violent and cruel aspects of this system which has evolved into what I am calling Psychopatriarchy.
