52 m. ago Trump’s Truth Social posts make no sense – what do they say about his mentality?

The president’s little used social media platform offers him a forum for his nonstop haranguing and score-settlingNo political leader has used social media quite like Donald Trump. But his recent posts on Truth Social, the social media platform he founded in 2021, have become increasingly bizarre: the president using the lack of scrutiny afforded by the platform’s small user base to truly let loose.In the hundreds of “Truths” since he took office, Trump has variously used Truth Social to reimagine himself as a king and to urge Americans to “BE COOL!” as the stock market tanked in the wake of his trade war, the president’s seemingly random use of capital letters, punctuation and inaccurate spelling consistent across the messages.

2 h. ago ‘Protest can shape the world’: Rebecca Solnit on the fight back against Trump

Demonstrations against the US president have been underplayed and dismissed, but a lifetime of activism has taught me how powerful collective action can beOn 5 April, millions of people rallied against the Trump administration and its campaigns of destruction. In small towns and big cities from Alaska to Florida, red counties and blue (and a handful of European cities), they gathered with homemade signs full of fury and heartbreak and sarcasm. Yet the “Hands Off” protests received minimal media coverage, and the general response was that they didn’t do anything, because they didn’t have immediate and obvious, and most of all quantifiable, consequences. I’ve heard versions of “no one cares”, “no one is doing anything” and “nothing came of it” for all my activist life. These responses are sometimes a sign that the speaker isn’t really looking and sometimes that they don’t recognise impacts that aren’t immediate, direct or obvious. Tracking those indirect and unhurried impacts, trying ...

Stylists, dermatologists, aestheticians and nutritionists share the products they return to, time and again• Sunscreen and snail slime: what skincare experts do – and don’t do – to their skinHow often do you come across a beauty product that genuinely changes the game? Not just a nice-to-have, but something that actually works, solving a problem you’d given up on. The shampoo that really defrizzes. The foundation that lasts all day without creasing. The serum that calms, rather than irritates, sensitive skin.Most of us have drawers full of abandoned products: lipsticks that smudge, sunscreens that pill, serums that sting too much. So when something delivers, it’s a big deal – often earning a permanent spot in your routine (and a place in your emergency backup stash). Continue reading...

4 h. ago My cultural awakening: Groundhog Day made me quit my job, move house and leave my girlfriend

When I saw Bill Murray’s classic comedy I realised that I was trapped in my own unfulfilling time loopI didn’t know anything about the plot of Groundhog Day before I decided to watch it 10 years ago. I remember collapsing on to the sofa after work – completely exhausted – and putting it on. My girlfriend was already asleep in the next room. Her drinking had been getting steadily worse that year, but I think we were both in denial about it. Most evenings I’d spend alone, so I’d put a movie on in the background for company.I found it funny at first, watching Bill Murray’s character trapped in a time-loop. But about 20 minutes in, I started feeling this creeping sense of dread. I remember seeing Murray’s white alarm clock going off, waking him up to begin the same day and feeling this horrible spark of recognition. It was like watching my own life play out on the screen in front of me. Continue reading...
