Any time I have ever mentioned bonito flakes, either online or in this thing called “real life,” one very well meaning person will say “I thought those were for cats.” While it’s true the a cat would find them very pleasing, these feathery, savory and smoky flakes are best enjoyed by humans, who are more equipped to…

Mission to Zyxx might be the best podcast. This science fiction comedy—a mix of Star Trek, Star Wars, and The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy—that leans on original jokes instead of references, is definitely the best of the current wave of fictional podcasts, partly because of its unique process. The cast improvises…

An anonymous mother wrote a piece for Today titled “How to Imagine the Unimaginable.” It’s the type of story that as a parent, you can’t bear to read, which means that you must (though do be warned that it deals with sexual abuse). She details how she discovered that a babysitter had played a game called “privates”…

Living a healthy lifestyle can help to prevent cancer. (No cancer is completely preventable, though; genetics and bad luck are factors, too.) But which lifestyle factors really matter? The World Cancer Research Fund has a handy graphic to point them out.

News has been making the rounds this week about the Netflix secret request feature, which allows users to suggest movies and TV shows that aren’t currently available for streaming. The request page is hidden in Netflix help center, which is probably the reason why most users weren’t previously aware of it.

When I walk into my local cycling studio, the music is at a level that’s easy to talk over. But once the instructor clips in, the volume goes way up. The sound fills your ears, so you can’t hear the person next to you breathing heavy. You feel like you’re inside the song, which helps you to really feel its energy.…

Liquid smoke, an additive that imparts a charred wood flavor to food without using a smoker, has been dismissed as both “cheating” and “nasty” but, if used with a delicate hand, it can produce some tasty results.. I love liquid smoke in my apartment-approved, smoke-free, sous-vide ribs, but it has other clever uses,…

Even if you don’t have many vacation days to use, a good day trip or weekend getaway can be enough to help you unwind and destress. If you want to save some cash on your mini-vacay, consider taking the train or bus. You don’t have to drive, and you’d be surprised how far you can get for very little.

The correct positioning of a car seat chest clip is at armpit level, right between a child’s nipples. This isn’t a suggestion, but a non-negotiable. Car seat safety advocate Heather Starr explains why in this Facebook post showing the chest of three-year-old girl after she was in a car accident. There’s some bruising,…

iOS: For Apple enthusiasts, game developer Zach Gage is practically a household name. Not only does Apple love to feature the indie developer—and his games—on the App Store, but he’s won Apple’s Palme d’Or of apps, a coveted Design Award, as well as numerous other industry recognitions for his fun creations. You…

Summer: A time to sit back and relax by the pool or on the beach with your favorite drink in hand, and to get some reading done. And between true crime thrillers, sci-fi adventures and some timeless classics, there’s a lot to get through.

If you want to play with the “early AF” release of iOS 12, or run around in the deserts of macOS Mojave, you normally have to give Apple $99 for the privilege of developing apps for its platform—apps it’ll ultimately take a 30 percent cut of (unless you offer a subscription and keep a user for longer than a year, but…

You can trace a lot, and perhaps most, of what is happening in a culture through the words people choose to cloak their most terrifying and terrible instincts. And there are, right now, few self-chosen labels with worse connotations than “involuntarily celibate” or “incel.”

Right now, the largest communities of the involuntarily celibate, or “incels,” are toxic. These communities (sometimes on larger sites like Reddit or 4chan, sometimes on their own domains and chat rooms) cater mostly to straight men, especially white ones, and they preach a message of hate that has contributed to…
