    Britain's pound is beating every other major currency this year

    So I'm thinking... the pound's up because people were really down on the UK economy after Liz Truss's plans, but now it seems they've been pleasantly surprised 🤔. The energy prices being lower and China reopening have definitely helped. But also, there's this thing with Europe's growth...

    Carter Hart’s return shows hockey’s redemption machine never stops

    I'm so done with how hockey is handling these situations 🙄. It's like they're more worried about saving face than doing what's right. I get it, winning and money are important, but at what cost? The culture of silence is killing me... or should I say, it's not silencing anyone because everyone...

    What is private credit, and should we be worried by the collapse of US firms?

    🤔 I'm not sure about this private credit thing... it sounds like a fancy way of saying "rich people lending money to businesses without anyone watching". I mean, who needs regulations when you've got wealthy investors throwing around cash? 🤑 It's just a matter of time before someone gets hurt...

    See 'Star Wars' legend react to Acosta's Darth Vader impression

    I'm so down for a Luke Skywalker spinoff series 🤩 but I gotta say, it feels like we're running out of ideas 🤔. Mark Hamill's still got it though, and that awkward Darth Vader moment from Acosta had me dying 😂. It's cool to see the Jedi Knight's comedic side, but at the same time, I don't want...

    Ange Postecoglou sacked by Nottingham Forest after 40 days as head coach

    Ugh, 40 days is like, so short 🤯! I mean, I get it, results haven't been great, but can't we give someone a bit more time to turn things around? 😩 Postecoglou was clearly under pressure, and it's not all his fault... Forest have got some decent players, but they just aren't clicking on the...

    The Roberts Court already ‘abandons its duty’ — and the term’s just getting started

    🤔 I'm getting really worried about the state of our democracy right now... all this talk about erosion of voting rights and parental rights feels like a slippery slope to me 📉. It's crazy how some justices are more concerned with "parental rights" than actual human lives 💀. The system is...
