Lionel Messi once again stole the headlines in Argentina’s opening match, scoring a stunning hat-trick against Algeria to remind the football world that he remains capable of deciding games on the biggest stage. The 38-year-old is now one goal away from breaking the all-time World Cup scoring…

Kevin Hart‘s first performance stage wasn’t a comedy club. It was a basketball court at George Washington High School in Philadelphia. He played varsity there. The comedy career came much later. That’s the story Hart brought to Michelle Obama‘s “I’m Obsessed” podcast this week, and it landed hard. The nearly two-hour episode covers his upbringing, his family relationships, and what comedy actually means to him beyond the career. This wasn’t a press tour stop. It was a real sit-down. Obama announced the episode on her Instagram, calling Hart someone who “never fails to make us laugh.” She flagged the basketball…

This article is republished with permission from Laser Wars, a newsletter about military laser weapons and other futuristic defense technology. The U.S. military has spent billions of dollars over decades building high-energy laser weapons capable of burning drones out of the sky, but it has spent considerably less money and time exploring what happens when an adversary does the same thing. With China fielding a growing arsenal of laser weapons capable of killing drones at ranges up to 25 kilometers, Russia’s Peresvet reportedly in active service, and various laser systems now spreading across the world through indigenous development, proliferation, and a burgeoning export market, that oversight…

A stateless man who was ordered deported a year ago is still in Canada and has won back the income support Ontario had cut. The Ontario Social Benefits Tribunal granted his appeal in a decision issued April 15, finding he qualified for a narrow exception to provincial rules that bar income support for people under deportation orders. His Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) payments were stopped July 30, 2025, after an ODSP caseworker received a deportation notice saying he no longer had legal status in Canada and was under an enforceable removal order. An internal review upheld the cutoff, and…

El sábado 20 de junio se presentaba con una tarde más calurosa que la del día anterior y en el ambiente se respiraba una mezcla de ilusión –ante la variada oferta músical que se venía– y cierta nostalgia, sobre todos entre quienes llevaban en el festival desde el jueves o incluso el miércoles; muchos de ellos, público extranjero que suele llegar en la víspera. La buena temperatura ayudó a construir ese ambiente veraniego perfecto para el concierto de Social Distortion. “He ido infierno y he regresado”, canta Mikel Ness en la canción ‘Still Alive’ de ‘Hard Times and Nursery Thymes’,…

Fertility Inc. is a multi-part series by the Investigative Journalism Bureau that delves into the Wild West of the egg-freezing industry, its aggressive marketing, the high cost and the chances of an eventual successful pregnancy . The largely unregulated, private fertility clinics that offer egg freezing to women in Canada need stronger safeguards around transparency, advertising and counselling, say many experts who have studied or worked in the field. Over eight months, the Investigative Journalism Bureau analyzed how egg freezing is marketed and sold to women. It found several examples of what the IJB characterized as aggressive or misleading advertising,…

There’s a new reason to avoid buddying up to ChatGPT, at least if you’re single: Daters find it deeply unattractive. In a recent survey of 3,500 Gen Z and Millennial daters in the U.S., the dating app Hily found that using AI is, quite simply, not a flex. In fact, it’s a major turnoff when it comes to romance and potential partnership. Younger daters are especially likely to view AI reliance as a red flag. While 56% of Millennial respondents said they wouldn’t date someone who uses AI regularly, that figure rose to 64% among Gen Z. More than half…
