For years you’ve lived on a college budget, scrounging meals where you can, buying gas on a trip-by-trip basis, and never once pondering the term “401(k).” Getting that first paycheck from your employer is going to feel like more money than you know what to do with. But before you start daydreaming about fancy cars…

With temperatures rising in many places, lawn care season has officially begun and the struggle to keep the grass from turning brown through the heat of summer looms ahead. With many areas in some form of drought restriction for water use, our yards usually suffer, saving water for more important things. But there’s a…

The risk of blackouts is growing—our national power grid is aging, our demand for electricity is increasing, and the climate is becoming more volatile. The most common solution people think of is a gas or propane generator. These big, heavy machines provide a ton of power, but they come with some drawbacks. They…

It’s hard to beat a grilled vegetable, but vegans and vegetarians deserve something more substantial than portobello mushrooms from time to time. If you’re looking for an easy, vegan-friendly dish for barbecue season, look no further than cevapi made with your alt meat of choice.

It’s almost summer, and for parents, that means one thing: Yachting! Wait no, I mean finding something to keep your offspring occupied until that blessed day when school is back in session.

The very earliest films saw us flying in a fantastical context (think of Georges Méliès and his Trip to the Moon), but it wasn’t long after the advent of the fixed-wing aircraft that movies began to imagine…

You don’t know you sound bad on a FaceTime or Zoom call until someone points it out. If you’re chatting with a particularly polite bunch, you might never know, and your hilarious stories or inspiring speeches will fall on deaf and strained ears. If you’re an Apple user, and you want to make sure your voice sounds as…

There are lots of ways to begin an exercise routine, and as we pointed out here, it’s not always worth sweating the details. But does it matter what type of gym you join? Gyms with squat racks and barbells give you a lot of options for getting strong, but it’s rare to find one with dirt-cheap pricing. Meanwhile,…

Break out your favorite pair of white slacks: Memorial Day weekend is almost here. And whether you’re kicking off your summer with a road trip, a night out with friends, or a quiet evening in, at some point, you’re going to have to eat. Plus, with inflation driving up the cost of basically everything, you should…

Seatbelts essentially have one job: To keep the humans inside a vehicle safe. Typically that means ensuring that drivers and passengers remain relatively stationary during a crash, but in light of the latest recall from Hyundai, we’re going to add “does not explode” to our seatbelt wishlist.

Is anyone else weirded out by the fact that we’re now multiple seasons deep into series that debuted during the pandemic? Because I am not OK with the fact that Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building is already back for a second season on June 28, since I’m pretty sure season one only came out about five months ago (it…

There are a lot of ways to pack your carry-on bag, but sometimes the “what” is more important than the “how.” To be blunt, traveling on an airplane can be both gross and boring. When I’m flying the friendly skies, I have a personal checklist of items that are “must-haves” for my carry-on bag, in my attempt to feel a…
