2 d. ago ‘Such a kind kid’: former neighbours and all Portugal grieve for Diogo Jota

From residents of Gondomar, where the footballer grew up, to the president a country has been engulfed by sorrowAna Oliveira can barely get through a sentence before breaking down in tears. She has lived most of her life across the street from Diogo Jota’s family home in Gondomar, a small city on the outskirts of Porto in northern Portugal. The sorrow that has engulfed the nation since the Liverpool forward’s death is felt particularly acutely there.Ana can still picture Diogo clearly as a boy, dropping his backpack after school and spending hours kicking a ball against the wall of his house. His younger brother, André Silva – who perished in the same car crash in northern Spain on Thursday – quickly followed in his footsteps, sharing his love for the game. The brothers would often invite Ana’s brother, Ângelo, for a quick match in the street before dinner. Continue reading...

2 w. ago ‘Have you heard of this BDSM trend?’ What I learned recording thousands of hours of teens on their phones

When documentary-maker Lauren Greenfield immersed herself in the online and offline lives of 25 teenagers, she unearthed a world of sexually explicit images, rape culture, bullying and suicidal ideation. Adolescence, she says, has become like the wild westReactions to Lauren Greenfield’s documentary series Social Studies tend to fall into two categories. Young people think it is validating; adults think it’s a horror show. After all, the screen of a teenager’s smartphone is a shiny black hole to which access is rarely granted. “Our kids are right there,” as Greenfield puts it, “and yet we don’t really know what’s going on in their lives.”Her five-part series, which tracks the online and offline lives of a group of teenagers and young adults – the first generation of social media natives – is being tipped for an Emmy.

They’re doing their best to thrive and learn.” The camera, he adds, is “a seemingly inanimate object that can help you ...
