3 d. ago Khadija Shaw: ‘Sometimes you have to take a step back and think about your mental health’

In an exclusive interview, the Manchester City striker talks about the horrific racist abuse she suffered last season, playing with Viv Miedema and her hopes for 2025-26“It’s difficult,” says Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw. “Sometimes you have to take a step back and think about you and your mental health because if you’re not in a good place you won’t be able to perform. I wasn’t in a good place. It was about more than what happened in that match. There’s a lot that people didn’t and don’t know about.”Shaw is speaking for the first time about her decision to withdraw from Manchester City’s League Cup semi-final against Arsenal in February, four days after she had suffered horrific racist abuse following a 4-3 loss against the same side in the Women’s Super League. Manchester City said they were “appalled” and reported the matter to the police. Continue reading...

She looks directly at the camera as she chomps down on an entire stick of butter. It’s part of her “high fat carnivore diet” to which she attributes a whole host of health benefits, not least of which is the claim she “literally never fart[s] any more” and has a single “scentless” bowel movement a week.A lot of gym bros also back the diet touted for helping people lose weight and build muscle, such as Antonio Angotti, who says the fat in red meat “includes almost every nutrient humans need to thrive” and invokes religion as part of his dietary choices, saying he eats “just foods God will actually bless”.

6 d. ago Is it OK to be happy when the world is falling apart? | Avram Alpert

It is reasonable and moral to think that when others are harmed, you should feel the injury, but our sympathy should not be limited to painA friend of mine called the other day with news of two major life achievements: his first book had been published, and his university had granted him tenure. And yet, he said, he was miserable. How could he be happy about his success when so many terrible things were happening in the world?It’s a good question, and one that I hear from a lot of people these days. As I write these words, humanitarian disasters are unfolding in Gaza, Sudan, Yemen, Myanmar, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Global climate action has not moved fast enough, and we are perilously close to creating an uninhabitable planet. Meanwhile here in the United States, immigrants have been rounded up and shipped to foreign countries without legal protection. Trans people have been demonized. Meaningful government agencies have been cut. Research destroyed. Universities attack...

1 week ago How to make the perfect fish finger sandwich – recipe | Felicity Cloake's How to make the perfect

Everyone in the UK has an opinion on this British classic, and here is our resident perfectionist’s I must be the only person in Britain not to have grown up with fish finger sandwiches – we always had them with mash and peas – but after discovering them on pub menus as an adult, it wasn’t hard to see the appeal. These crunchy batons of firm, creamy fish in soft white bread, often topped with a tangy sauce, are surely the UK equivalent of Mexican fish tacos or West African fish rolls – a quick, nutritious and very satisfying light meal or snack.(NB: if you’re skim-reading this before leaping below the line to demand to know who needs a recipe for a fish finger sandwich, I can assure you a lot of people online seem to feel there’s a demand.) Given their popularity (indeed, this column was a reader request), I must echo Helen Graves, who prefaces her recipe thus: “I am bracing myself for the comeback on this one, because everyone (or at least everyone in the UK) has an opinion on what...
