Eating disorders in children and teens are on the rise two years into the COVID-19 pandemic, with hospitalization rates three times higher now than before. Even kids as young as eight or nine are affected, according to a study of six Canadian hospitals.

Scams that target job-seekers are nothing new. There’s multi-level marketing schemes, assemble-product-at-home deals, phishing schemes using job applications, not to mention the perfectly legal scam of being exploited by your employer. But the trend toward working from home and the anonymity of the internet have…

In the nearly 30 years since Amazon launched as a humble online bookstore, it has moved into just about every aspect of our lives. It’s now a retailer, a grocery store, a media streamer, a movie production company, a cloud computing company, a major employer, and just about everything else. All this expansion has led…

I’m willing to bet you have a lint roller lying around your home. Hell, let’s make things more interesting: I’ll bet that you aren’t using said lint roller to its full capabilities. Sure, you know the lint roller is a must-have for ridding your outfit of pet hair, dander, and, well, lint off your clothes. But the lint…

Who owns the corporations that contribute to climate change, engage in appalling labor practices, and test products on animals? You probably do.

March brings plenty of things to celebrate—more daylight, warming weather, Women’s History Month, Pi Day, apparently college basketball is a thing? For many of us, it’s the month we can again start to imagine weekend getaways and rooftop cocktails. March 17—St. Patrick’s Day—is one of the first true party days of the…

If you live in an older home, drafty windows are often a problem. Rather than replacing them—at an average of $850 per window—you can use window inserts to help fix the problem, save you 50% on installation costs, and lower your energy usage (and bills) over the long term.

None of us is superhuman: As much as we try to memorize every talking point or every question, we can’t work at our best without the occasional reference. Still, it seems more impressive, especially on video calls, if we never need to look away from the camera when interviewing or giving a presentation. The solution,…

We’ve written before about things that are often housed on kitchen counters (like piles of paper, olive oil, and cookbooks) that can, and probably should, be tucked away to extend their lifespan and reduce clutter.

I was embarrassingly old before I understood the meaning of different fits in men’s jeans and pants, but after years of trial and error, I’m here to share what I’ve learned.

Stories of generational conflict are nothing new, in film, TV, or human history, but especially once the 1950s rolled around and American kids suddenly became a demographic worth marketing to (right around the time James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause made teen angst mainstream), the generation gap itself became a…

In order to have a productive, fulfilling, long-term relationship, there are many things we need to be aware of. Our own triggers and emotional baggage, our partner’s needs and love language, and how we speak to one another, especially when conflict arises. Our partner’s words may ring in our ears and weigh on our…

Preview is much more than a simple image viewer. Its image editing capabilities can actually help you accomplish slightly complex tasks—including removing unwanted backgrounds from your photos.

Tomorrow is March 17, also known as “St. Patrick’s Day,” “St. Paddy’s Day,” and “amateur hour.” It’s the day that people who don’t drink all that much decide to really tie one on, and it’s the absolute worst day to be at a bar.

If you’ve ever made a cake, there’s a good chance you’ve had to fold egg whites into a batter without deflating them too much. But most people don’t go to culinary school and never learn what it actually means to fold one ingredient into another. As a result, lots and lots of folks end up winging it, with highly…

For most people, traveling during the coronavirus pandemic has been strictly on an as-needed basis. That’s likely to change this summer. If you’re fully vaccinated with KN-95s in hand and ready to get the hell out of Dodge, don’t put off booking your trips much longer—now’s the time to take advantage of low prices and…

When it comes to members-only bulk shopping, it’s hard to beat Costco and Sam’s Club. These two warehouse giants are basically the only game in town, and seem fairly identical in terms of price points, rewards, and overall shopping experience. So how does one decide where to cast their loyalty (and spend their…

America is one of the busiest countries in the world: we work more hours, take less vacation, and have more stress than just about every other industrialized nation. All that time spent working takes a toll. If you’ve ever stood up from a long day at your desk and winced as your back seized up, or experienced the…
