Long before Bangladesh's independence, Dhaka was home to a thriving Armenian merchant community connected to one of the world's earliest global trade networks. From New Julfa in Iran to Amsterdam, Venice, Canton and Dhaka, Armenian traders built commercial and cultural links that spanned continents. Today, the 1781 Armenian Church in Armanitola stands as one of the last surviving reminders of that remarkable legacy, while efforts continue to preserve the history of a community nearly lost to time.

As Dhaka faces another monsoon, those who manage the city's fate remain steadfast in their silence about why Dhaka is far from livable. Furious landfilling operations have brutalised our integrated landscape beyond redemption, revealing that our cities are being built on a prejudice in favour of dry land. Conventional planning has failed miserably by erasing water to prepare plots and extract profit. This Slow Reads piece traces why a new urban imagination is required in the Bengal Delta, one that integrates urbanism and waterscape to create a city that finally befriends water.

We live in an era where you can bet on anything. It shouldn’t be surprising, then, that people are spending millions of dollars on online prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket to bet on reality TV. What is shocking is how confident and accurate the calls have been — in the neighborhood of 90% and above — on the winners and losers of some of the biggest television shows. But who is making these bets and how are they doing it so accurately? The obvious answer is that people are trading on these prediction markets with insider information, which is easy to do when shows like Survivor and its results are taped months in advance. Thanks to the gambling regulation gray area that prediction markets currently occupy and the limits of NDAs, there’s plenty of money to be made with very little consequence for anyone who knows how a season of Survivor played out. And now that spoiling a TV show has become so profitable so quickly, and because Kalshi and Polymarket are so culturally enmeshed, the show’s biggest fans are paying the price. The story is linked in the comments below.

The tragic and historic life of David Vetter, known globally as the "Bubble Boy," remains one of the most poignant chapters in modern medicine. Born in Houston, Texas, in 1971 with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID), David lacked any functioning immune system, leaving him completely defenseless against standard germs. To preserve his life, doctors placed him into a sterile, plastic isolation bubble immediately after birth, a temporary measure that unexpectedly became his permanent home for over a decade. David spent his entire childhood navigating life behind plastic walls, interacting with his family exclusively through heavy rubber gloves built into the bubble's framework. He attended school a remote telephone hookup, watched television, and played with sterile toys, all while enduring profound psychological and physical isolation. His reality shifted in 1983 when doctors performed a groundbreaking bone marrow transplant using cells from his sister, Katherine, hoping the procedure would finally allow his body to produce its own white blood cells. Tragically, the donated marrow contained an undetected trace of the Epstein-Barr virus, which quickly triggered a fatal, rapid lymphoma in David’s defenseless body. As his condition deteriorated, doctors were forced to remove him from his sterile bubble to administer emergency medical treatment. This extraction allowed his mother, Carol Ann Demaret, to touch her son's bare skin for the very first time in his life, just days before he passed away on February 22, 1984, at the age of 12. David's profound sacrifice and the extensive medical data gathered throughout his life directly paved the way for modern gene therapies and advanced transplant protocols. Today, newborn screening programs ensure that infants born with SCID are identified and routinely cured within their first months of life, allowing them to step out into the world completely free.

The incredible journey of Little Grey and Little White highlights the immense logistical and biological challenges of transitioning captive marine mammals back to the ocean. After spending a decade performing in a concrete tank at Shanghai's Changfeng Ocean World, the two 2,000-pound beluga whales were relocated 6,000 miles to the Westman Islands of Iceland in a massive 2019 effort involving custom slings, cranes, trucks, a dedicated cargo jet, and a final harbor ferry. The move to the SEA LIFE Trust Beluga Whale Sanctuary in Klettsvik Bay marked the creation of the world's first open-water sanctuary for cetaceans. However, decades of artificial living meant the whales could not simply be released into the wild. They required extensive training to build up necessary sub-Arctic blubber, tolerate natural weather, and acclimate to marine flora and fauna. To assist with their transition, the sanctuary care team developed the "Little Steps" program. This program centers around a custom-built, 160-meter circular "Intermediate Halo Habitat" anchored in the bay, which grants the whales safe access to the natural seafloor while keeping them close to veterinary teams. Because the two belugas adapt to the vast 32,000-square-meter bay at entirely different speeds—with Little White adjusting at a more cautious pace—the team continuously monitors their comfort. Following seasonal transitions and necessary structural modifications to their bayside care areas, the team meticulously schedules their movements between the open bay and their indoor landside facility. While they can never be fully freed into the open ocean, this pioneering sanctuary provides them with a dynamic, natural environment to swim, dive, and explore, setting an invaluable global baseline for future marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation efforts.

Epic Games founder Tim Sweeney has established himself as one of the most proactive private conservationists in American history, systematically redirecting his tech fortune to shield vital ecosystems from commercial developers. With private individuals owning roughly 60% of all land in the United States, targeted private action is essential to combat habitat fragmentation and protect continuous, unfragmented wilderness corridors. Instead of spending his wealth on traditional billionaire luxuries, the creator of Fortnite has spent nearly two decades purchasing thousands of acres of forests, mountains, and wetlands—primarily in North Carolina. Using a private holding company named "130 of Chatham, LLC," Sweeney focuses heavily on ecological connectivity, acquiring specific, contiguous tracts of land to act as biological corridors for safe wildlife migration. His strategy prevents the isolation of ecosystems, linking protected public lands to ensure that local species have the vast ranges they need to survive. His holdings include exceptionally biodiverse spaces like the 7,000-acre Box Creek Wilderness in the Blue Ridge foothills, which protects over 130 rare or endangered species and was defended by Sweeney in a multi-year legal battle against corporate development. In 2021, his conservation mission reached historic milestones with two monumental land gifts: he donated 7,500 acres of the Roan Highlands to the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy—marking the largest private land donation in North Carolina history—and gifted the 7,300-acre Falkland Farms tract to the state of Virginia. As shifting economic conditions and rising real estate prices make acquiring new acreage increasingly difficult, Sweeney has transitioned his primary focus to securing permanent legal protections and conservation easements for the 50,000-plus acres he already controls. By permanently restricting development rights on these massive properties, his real-life "side quest" ensures that some of the East Coast’s most delicate and pristine natural habitats will remain entirely untouched for generations to come.

Anxiety can be a funny thing. It loops through our frontal lobes, and if left unchecked, it doesn’t always willingly see itself out. Psychologists have long studied ways to help quell anxiety, and while potential solutions are certainly not one-size-fits-all, they’re worth exploring. One such idea is called the “6:30 p.m. rule,” which was popularized by journalist Mel Bradman, who was treated for chronic anxiety. The theory is that if we set a certain time each day to tell our minds, “no more worrying,” we can, in essence, “trick” our racing brains into slowing down. In an op-ed for The Guardian, Bradman described her anxiety and said she was intrigued when her Norwegian therapist suggested the technique during a session: “I was stuck in a particularly vicious circle of over-thinking, (and) she said: ‘Tonight after 6.30pm is ‘No Worry Time.’ ‘What do you mean?’ I asked. ‘Exactly that. From 6.30pm until you wake up the next day, you’re not allowed to worry.’” When she pushed back on how that might help her, she relayed the therapist’s words: “‘By giving your brain a rest, and allowing the other parts of you that aren’t driven by anxiety to come back in,’ she said. She told me that anxiety is a bully, and like all bullies, it needed to be put in its place.” Bradman continued the practice and says it helped her reframe the idea of worry. “Last year, when I was travelling in Bangkok, I saw a sign in a bar that read ‘No worry zone.’ I loved it. It was a reminder that I could make my life a worry-free zone, and that you don’t have to be held hostage by anxiety – sometimes you can call the shots,” she wrote. The choice of 6:30 p.m. is not insignificant. Below, read about the science behind that specific timing.

Anxiety experts explain the fascinating reason 6:30 p.m. is perfect time to enter the worry zone' "It sets a clear boundary at a time when the mind is more likely to drift into worry." 11121 1 11 12 10 2 8 7 3 4 5 6 UP WOR THY

The historic confrontation between a Russian poacher named Vladimir Markov and an Amur (Siberian) tiger occurred in December 1997 within the remote Primorye region of Russia's Far East. While out hunting, Markov encountered the tiger feeding on a wild boar, shot and wounded the apex predator, and subsequently stole the carcass. The choice to injure the tiger and steal its food triggered a calculated, premeditated response from the animal that challenged conventional scientific boundaries regarding wildlife cognition. The injured tiger tracked Markov’s scent over several days directly back to his isolated forest cabin. Finding the residence empty, the tiger systematically systematically destroyed any items that carried Markov's specific scent. Instead of moving on, the tiger lay in wait outside the cabin door for an estimated 12 to 48 hours. When Markov finally returned to the cabin, the tiger launched an immediate, fatal ambush. The animal’s targeted focus was heavily documented by Yuri Trush, the leader of a specialized anti-poaching squad named Inspection Tiger, who was tasked with investigating the scene and tracking down the dangerous animal. The event was later meticulously reconstructed by author John Vaillant in his acclaimed 2010 book The Tiger, which analyzed the complex biological mechanics behind the predator's apparent vengeance. Biologists and wildlife researchers who examined the tracking patterns concluded that the tiger's actions were entirely intentional, demonstrating an advanced ability to hold a specific concept over time rather than reacting on basic instinct. The tragedy serves as a stark reminder of the sophisticated cognitive capabilities of endangered apex predators and the unpredictable dangers of encroaching on their natural territory.

Johnson previously made headlines for highly controversial procedures—including swapping blood plasma with his teenage son and elderly father—in his relentless quest for eternal youth. The Limits of Biohacking Despite access to a dedicated team of doctors and cutting-edge medical diagnostics, Johnson acknowledged that his daily anti-aging therapies cannot cure the underlying condition. Autoimmune gastritis causes the body's immune defense system to attack parietal cells inside the stomach lining, which are responsible for producing necessary digestive acids. When these cells are destroyed, the body loses its ability to absorb Vitamin B12 from food. This malabsorption leads directly to pernicious anemia—a condition marked by a severe shortage of healthy red blood cells—as well as neurological issues and chronic fatigue. Over time, the persistent inflammation in the stomach lining also significantly raises a patient's long-term risk of developing gastric tumors. While Johnson expressed hope that his experimental data could help "solve" the underlying autoimmune trigger, mainstream medicine currently relies solely on lifelong B12 injections to manage the disease.

Is SpaceX already giving investors buyer’s remorse? Elon Musk’s golden child fell 5.4% today after the company called off a test flight for its Starship rocket Thursday night. Today’s tumble capped six straight days of losses for the company—putting it well below its IPO price of $135, and nearly 40% below its June peak. Though the last minute cancellation was disappointing, this isn’t the first time Starship flopped: Back in May, the rocket crashed in the Gulf of Mexico, triggering an investigation from the FAA. Despite SpaceX’s tough couple weeks, there are still some winners out there: The haters. Roughly 110 million shares of SpaceX were borrowed and sold by short sellers, representing roughly 17% of available shares, Barron’s reported. As for the near-term, the ‘I told you so’s’ might be onto something: Historically, nearly half of large listings are below their IPO price by their third year of trading. On top of that, one expected boon for the company—a merger with Tesla—probably won’t happen anytime soon. 📸 : Getty

Hegseth is now making all military personnel aged 30 and older undergo testing for testosterone deficieny. Troops with low testosterone levels will be offered voluntary hormone replacement therapy. The irony of this isn’t lost on trans troops who were forced out of the military. We reached out to the U.S. Department of War and asked them to comment on the accusations of hypocrisy from trans former service members. They directed us to their press release which says the department is “committed to building and maintaining a ready, lethal fighting force prepared to dominate the battlefield and achieve peace through strength.”

Did your gender identity ever conflict with your service? PARKER: "No. My gender has no bearing on my ability to do my job. I upheld and exceeded every Navy standard. only time I couldn't perform my job was when Hegseth made all transgender people non-deployable.' My ship left without me. They left less ready to fight." SAM: "Never. Navy cleared me every time enlistment, deployments, officer screenings. Every record: Operationally Ready. I did all of that while on testosterone." hypocrisy burns a new sense of rage for me. PARKER MOORE RETIRED U.S. NAVY OFFICER PARKER, Navy Vet What's your reaction to military now offering testosterone? PARKER: "I was immediately filled with rage.1 I couldn't go on deployment with injectable testosterone but we're about to prescribe it to military? At first thought it was ajoke." SAM: testosterone he wants to hand out to cis men is e same prescription I've had for eight years. When I take it, I'm liability to be purged. When cis man takes it, he's a warfighter being optimized. That not policy. That's a confession."

What's more common is men choosing to stay to "continue their journey". Dom stayed in villa for nearly two weeks a long time in Love Island world] despite his partner Jess leaving, an which fuelled accusations he was there for free holiday. Michael also stayed following his partner Joanna's dumping, despite saying "what have got to stay for?" Days later he tried to rekindle things with Amber who went on to win show. THENEWSMOWVEMENT EMENT These examples illustrate how Love Island often reinforces familiar dating dynamics, where women are expected to prove their loyalty while men are encouraged to "keep their options open." result is that men become choosers, while women are left making sacrifices to show commitment. It is so rare to see a female Islander caught in a triangle with two men, yet reverse is becoming all too common. If you're not caught up with Love Island UK then save this for later. But S13 has seen Ellie Chadwick [arguably this season's fave girl] leave villa for a boy that has put her through turmoil. Ellie chose to walk after her fellow islander's decided to dump Finley, because in their words, he "freaks" them out and Ellie deserved better. And while here at NM we are all for love, it got us thinking about how many female Love Islanders choose to leave for men who probably would not do same for them. TH HENEWISMOVEMENT GIRLS.

Every year, Independence Day brings spectacular firework shows for people, but for shelter animals, the loud booms and bright flashes are a intense terror. In response to this annual stress, Maricopa County Animal Care and Control (MCACC) in Arizona launched an incredibly heartwarming initiative: Calming Companions (also known as Comfort the Canines). During the peak of the evening fireworks, the shelter opened its doors to the public. Rather than attending traditional holiday parties, hundreds of compassionate volunteers showed up at the county's Phoenix and Mesa shelters armed with folding chairs, blankets, and yoga mats to keep the anxious animals company. Turning Terror into ComfortFor several hours, volunteers sat directly in front of the dog and cat kennels to provide a gentle, reassuring presence. They read books aloud, sang, played soothing music, blew bubbles, and passed treats and toys through the cage bars. The impact was immediate and profound. Instead of pacing, barking, or whimpering in fear, the animals shifted their focus entirely to their human companions. Shelter staff reported seeing terrified dogs press their faces gently against the kennel bars to fall asleep against the volunteers' hands. The event was so successful that many first-time attendees signed up to become permanent volunteers, with some even returning the very next day to adopt the animals they had comforted.

“Even being divorced from him, I’ve dealt with harassing phone calls, threats of him wanting to kill me.” Ashley Brouillette, an ex-wife of David Brouillette, says the ICE agent responsible for the fatal shooting in Maine has a history of domestic abuse. Ashley Brouillette told NPR that David Brouillette threw his 13-year-old daughter through a glass coffee table in 2022. He also once left a voicemail threatening to cut Ashley’s throat, and pulled a gun on her while she was in the shower. Several relatives told the AP that David Brouillette has a history of attacking women. Brouillette shot Joan Sebastian Guerrero, a Colombian immigrant who was authorized to work in the U.S., four times in Biddeford, Maine, earlier this week, killing him.

It turns out, life isn’t always fair. Coca-Cola, which owns dairy company Fairlife, announced on Thursday that someone outside the company gained unauthorized access to some of its systems in a “ransomware event,” forcing the temporary suspension of US production operations. So, someone is literally trying to bully a dairy company into giving up its milk money. It’s unclear how much cash the hackers are trying to milk out of the company, which says it has alerted law enforcement while it works to get to the bottom of the situation. Coca-Cola said product quality and safety were not impacted, nor was Fairlife’s Canadian operations. Coca-Cola acquired Fairlife in 2020 for about $7 billion, Bloomberg reported.

Chipotle is taking its biggest cultural taste test yet, opening its first-ever restaurant in Mexico. The chain debuted in Monterrey's San Pedro Garza García neighborhood and says it's already planning six to eight more locations in the city before expanding to Mexico City and beyond. It's a bold move given Mexico's deep taco culture and Taco Bell's two previously failed attempts to crack the market. With more than 147,000 registered taquerias nationwide (and plenty more informal street stands), authentic Mexican fare is never far away. Still, Chipotle is betting its fresh ingredients, customizable menu, and familiarity among younger consumers who travel to the US will help it stand out. It also has a local ace up its sleeve with restaurant operator Alsea already franchising brands like Starbucks and Domino's across Latin America. Analysts say that partnership reduces execution risk and signals confidence that the burrito giant can succeed where others have stumbled, even if it's entering one of the world's most competitive taco markets. 📸: Getty
