😳 A new vegan restaurant in Brooklyn called “Slutty Vegan” has taken a provocative route in trying to lure customers into eating their plant-based offerings.
Among the restaurant's dishes are a banana pudding served in a paper cup bearing the name “Happy Ending”, or a burger called “the Ménage à Trois”. Some who have brought their children to the restaurant have been faced with the problem of answering some awkward questions.
🗣“I had to explain what 'slutty' means in seven-year-old language, and that was difficult, so I’m not really thrilled about that,” said Alice Dietz, 50, queuing to buy her vegan seven-year-old son, Teddy, a faux-cheeseburger kids' meal

Elon Musk praised Russian media such as Sputnik and Russia Today (RT), admitting that they have "some good points".
The 5 March message - which included links to Sputnik and RT - was one of hundreds to have been unearthed as part of the ongoing court process between him and Twitter.
💬 "The EU passed a law banning Russia Today and several other Russian news sources. We have been told to block their IP address," Musk wrote to Antonio Gracias, his adviser and former Tesla executive. "Actually," Musk added, according to the legal documents, "I find their news quite entertaining"

The United Nations is “ready and willing” to work with the government of the Democratic Republic of Congo to speed up the withdrawal of its peacekeeping force there. The year 2024 was the date originally mooted as the UN goal for the 14,000-strong mission to leave.
Armed groups “continue to pose a significant threat and to commit violence against civilians” in the country’s east, the UN envoy for the DRC, Bintou Keita, told the Security Council on 30 September. This further exacerbated the “crisis of confidence” in the UN mission - known by its French acronym, MONUSCO - Keita added.
Anti-UN protests have gripped the country since July amid complaints that the peacekeepers’ mission has failed to protect civilians against years of violence by armed groups

At the Coperni show, designers created a dress right on the podium - a substance was sprayed on the model (Bella Hadid), which, when it came into contact with the skin, turned into a "fabric" in front of the audience.
The notion of spray-on clothing was proposed as far back as 1961 in 'Return from the Stars' by Polish author Stanislav Lem. Now the idea doesn't seem so outlandish

🗣“Our goal is to make a useful humanoid robot as quickly as possible,” Musk said at the event. “There’s still a lot of work to be done to refine Optimus and prove it.”
