Xi Jinping’s Trade Pledge at APEC 2025: What Trump’s Absence Reveals About Global Power Shifts
A Stage Without America The 2025 APEC Summit, hosted in Kuala Lumpur, was meant to be a stage for collaboration and progress. Instead, it became a mirror reflecting shifting global power. As dozens of world leaders gathered to discuss trade and digital economies, one chair remained empty — that of U.S. President Donald Trump.

Sara Yahia Melted a City’s Cold Heart
It was a freezing morning in New York. The kind where the wind doesn’t just brush your face, it stings it. The sky was still that winter-gray shade that makes the whole city look like it hit snooze too many times. Picture rush hour chaos, everyone doing that fast-walk-slash-grumpy-face thing, shoulders hunched, eyes down, headphones in, coffee cups clenched like survival gear. You could almost hear the collective thought: Don’t slow me down.

🖤 The Psychology and Madness Behind Black Friday 2025
As the cool November air sweeps in and Thanksgiving leftovers gradually vanish, the United States gears up for a phenomenon that is significantly more boisterous, faster-paced, and more disarrayed — Black Friday. It's the day when thankfulness cedes ground to avarice, when shoppers morph into pursuers, and retail centers become arenas of dazzling markdowns and frantic footsteps.

The Clock That Could Stop Time
In the quiet, mist-covered town of Hollowford, time always seemed to move a little strangely. Days slipped by softly, nights arrived too soon, and the rhythm of life felt both fast and slow at once. At the end of a narrow cobblestone street stood an old, mysterious shop called Moments & Memories. It was the kind of place most people passed by without noticing, yet everyone swore it had always been there. Inside, the shelves were filled with forgotten treasures — cracked mirrors, faded photographs, dusty hourglasses, and clocks that ticked in uneven rhythms.

Should a Canadian Write about London?
Dear London, I owe you an apology. I think I had better explain myself. I was sent to visit relatives there in the summer of 1988. I was fourteen and a serious pain in the neck, but I was in good company. I remember that from the ride from airport to the flat that I would be staying in, I heard nothing but complaints. My very West Indian relatives pointed out how difficult it was to get ahead due to their race and class, even pointing out different buildings and places where they recalled insults and proved that they had a point. Later that same night, the relative I was staying with would get into a shouting match with a drunk in the street who was slapping a woman around (fortunately, this was from a balcony several stories up in the East End). Plaistow had its charms.

The Art of Automation: How AI Is Quietly Replacing Creativity with Code
When machines start making art, what happens to the artists who taught them? A few years ago, “artificial intelligence” was a buzzword — something futuristic, fascinating, but distant. Today, it’s everywhere. It edits our photos, writes our headlines, paints our portraits, and even suggests how we should feel about the world. For many of us, that shift happened so smoothly we didn’t even notice it.
