The Washington Post once got attention by cracking and exposing Watergate. Now, it's going viral with articles about whether you should drink iced coffee at interviews. What a comedown.

It's characteristic of the Brexit debate that, after a decade of arguing about it, the leader of the Conservative Party doesn't appear to know what the single market is & can't be arsed to find out. She seems to have a vague idea it's "a free trade area" that got mixed up with "all the other stuff".

This morning, New York City came together in remembrance of 25 years since the horrific terror attacks of September 11. 25 years of grief and loss, heroism and heartbreak, rebuilding and renewal.
Scenes from the 9/11 Memorial Ceremony. City workers in uniform hold an American flag. Mayor Mamdani, Governor Hochul, and other officials stand together. Mourners, including a young girl in a pink t-shirt, lay flowers at Ground Zero. A woman with grey hair mourns at Ground Zero. A man in an orange t-shirt and green baseball cap embraces a woman in a green shirt and black sunglasses. A man holds a poster of a firefighter, Michael Edward Roberts, who made the ultimate sacrifice on 9/11.
