The phrase matters. Not "dementia patient." Not "dementia sufferer." Not "Alzheimer's victim." A person living with dementia. A person — with a history, a personality, preferences, humour, dignity and a life that didn't begin with a diagnosis. The language we use to describe someone shapes how we see them, how we treat them, and ultimately […]
Water scarcity is no longer a regional issue that affects agriculture and municipalities while manufacturing carries on uninterrupted. Across the United States, manufacturers are discovering — often at the worst possible moment — that their production capacity is directly tied to their water supply. When drought restrictions reduce municipal allocations, when POTW surcharges spike because […]
The national average success rate for business funding applications in the UK sits between 13% and 20%.

I was reading a fascinating long-form piece the other day about the "psychedelic renaissance" currently sweeping through North American clinical research, and it struck me how completely the cultural conversation has shifted. If you roll the clock back just a decade, the idea of discussing psilocybin with the same level of nuance we apply to […]

I was reading a fascinating, slightly terrifying piece the other day about the sheer, blinding velocity of the global fintech sector, and it struck me how completely we have rebuilt the concept of the "counting room." If you close your eyes and think of a casino, you probably still see the 1970s Vegas version—smoke-filled rooms, […]
