Whether on your walls or the floor, tile is durable, attractive, and easy to clean and maintain. But installing it can be a challenge—as any amateur DIYer will quickly learn. The job seems straightforward, but it requires a lot of precision, and even minor imperfections can become major eyesores if they aren’t…

I will always be charmed by a little blue box of Jiffy Corn Muffin mix.

The world of weed edibles is broader than what’s on offer at your local dispensary, but even that small selection is a wonderland for people who don’t have regular access to legal cannabis.

I live near a park with a lake, and over the years I’ve watched the small watercrafts shift from a mix of canoes and kayaks to a mix of kayaks and stand-up paddleboards, or SUPs. The SUP is all the rage these days, and standing up on your board is part of the novelty of it. But I’d like to propose a new way to move…

Whether we’re out shopping for shoes or a new car, we’ve been trained to think beyond the utility of our stuff and consider how each purchase fits our personal style. And this extends to the most fundamental of possessions: Our homes. Most people have specific tastes when it comes to purchasing a home, and watching…

Usually when you think about about stress, you’re considering how to manage it or avoid it—or you’re reading about all the bad things it does to your body. But what if you reframed that thinking, and starting using regulatory responses to actually make stress work for you?

Before there was The Rings of Power, The Wheel of Time, or The House of the Dragon, there was The Witcher, the first post-Game of Thrones fantasy epic to flirt with widespread success.

In some parts of the world, it’s even become the default way to call people. With all that popularity, though, comes a spam call epidemic. Whether you rely on WhatsApp or your traditional phone…

Right now, five people are possibly trapped in a private submersible somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean. They have less than 20 hours of air left as of this writing—assuming they’re still alive. The U.S. Coast Guard, Navy, and Canada’s military are in the midst of a large-scale effort to locate and retrieve the vessel,…

Many years ago, I dined at the now defunct New York City location of Mission Chinese, a restaurant that was plagued by labor issues and various scandals, the smallest (and least consequential) of which was their “iced Sichuan water pickles,” a dish of seasoned crushed ice. I, along with two other dining companions,…

If you’re reading this, odds are you’ve sent a nude or suggestive photo to someone at some point in your life—and you wouldn’t be alone.
