‘It gives Shein’: how did polyester become the world’s most-hated material?

Due to its ubiquity in fast fashion, gen Z are pushing back against the synthetic material and using it as an insultIn 2015, Kate Moss called an easyJet pilot a “basic bitch” and a catchy new insult meaning obvious and uncool hit the mainstream. Had it happened in 2026, Moss might have used the word “polyester”, reportedly gen Z’s new favorite diss, levied at cheap-looking videos on TikTok, and sometimes at other users’ taste.But its use as a figurative insult also echoes a literal backlash against polyester, now the most-produced synthetic fibre on the planet.

The bank scam where your ‘bank’ is the scammer“A couple of Sundays ago at just past 11am my mobile rang.

The rebranding of ‘Lake America’ is Trump’s desperate attempt to distract us | Arwa Mahdawi

Ignore Iran, the Epstein files, and your wallet – not to mention Trump’s plummeting approval ratingsDon’t mention the war! Or the economy, for that matter. Or the Epstein files. Or Natalie Harp. Or “affordability”, which, as Donald Trump recently said at a rally, is a word that was “never used” by the media before he took office.

Instead, let’s all rejoice in Trump’s latest triumph: renaming Lake Ontario, which is shared by Canada and the US, as Lake America.On Thursday, Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to America-fy the lake’s name on US maps and documents, which is an excellent use of time and resources.

The biscuit looks and snaps the same, and tastes close enough that most buyers have no idea they’re eating a new recipe.One of the biggest changes was swapping palm oil for sunflower oil, but there was much more to it than that. The reformulation took years to perfect in a laboratory, where scientists tested everything from density to how the cracker responds to heat, moisture and packaging. Continue reading...
