Domestic Bliss

Have some beer and pizza while AI takes over your life.

Fish are running out of oxygen.

Europe’s cruise ships emit as much sulphur as a billion cars.

The plague killed Ancient Britons.

Homo sapiens domesticated ourselves.

Wes Anderson’s Star Wars.

Beatrix Potter kept quiet about Peter Rabbit’s origins.

The German town encrusted with diamonds.

Steve Albini on why debating the willfully ignorant is exhausting and pointless.

Notes from Prince Harry’s ghostwriter. Worth reading even if you aren’t obsessed with the royals:
