Every afternoon, Chris Morocco appears near my work station and prepares himself a snack. Multigrain bread, defrosted in the toaster, slathered with the dry dredges of a jar of almond butter. I understand his ritual from a survivalist point of view (we all need something to get us through that 3 p.m. slump), but I also can’t help but feel sorry for him. Life is meant to be lived. Snacks are meant to be enjoyed.Recently my colleague Kate Kassin and I decided to take things into our own hands. How could we keep the benefits of Chris’s sad toast—fiber, healthy…

Tetris has been immortalized in a playable McDonald’s plastic chicken nugget, a playable fake 7-Eleven Slurpee cup, and a playable wristwatch. But the most intriguing way to play Tetris yet is encased in paper.Last year the Tetris Company partnered with Red Bull for a gaming tournament that culminated in the 150-meter-tall Dubai Frame landmark being turned into the world’s largest playable Tetris installation using over 2,000 drones that functioned as pixels. Although the timing was a coincidence, Red Bull also published a 180-page gaming edition of its The Red Bulletin lifestyle magazine around the same time as the event, with…

The Juventus Women’s First Team were held to a 2-2 draw away at Ternana on Serie A Women Matchday 15. Coach Massimiliano Canzi spoke after the game.Here’s what he had to say:“In football, if you don’t put your head, legs, soul and heart into a game, you don’t get the result. Today, we definitely put less soul and heart into the game than Ternana did, so I think the result is the right one. We knew who we were up against, and we approached the game well. We were in total control, but we lost our way after their first…

If you’re the kind of person who gets nervous or squeamish at the doctor’s office, you might find that collecting your own samples doesn’t freak you out as much as someone in a white coat doing it.Depending on where you live and your transportation situation, at-home STD tests might be more accessible than visiting a clinic or making a doctor’s appointment. And you can pay for them out of pocket, which might be a better option based on your health insurance.Finally, and unfortunately, sexually transmitted infections have a stigma attached to them. You shouldn’t feel ashamed of checking up on…

“Talking to…Jesse Jackson,” by Charlayne Hunter-Gault, was originally published in the January 1988 issue of Vogue.For more of the best from Vogue’s archive, sign up for our Nostalgia newsletter here.One of the most dynamic forces on the political scene today, forty-six-year-old presidential candidate Jesse Louis Jackson grew up in the segregated South. He attended an all-Black high school, where he was star quarterback and a popular class leader, while working at Greenville, North Carolina’s all-white hotel and the all-white golf course—an experience that gave him the motivation that helped to propel him “from the back of the bus to the…

On January 19, the Webb space telescope stared deep into the chaotic world of Uranus for 17 hours, observing as the faint glow from molecules above the planet’s clouds meets its unusual magnetic field. The resulting data helped scientists map Uranus’s upper atmosphere in unprecedented detail, revealing new insight into how its tantalizing auroras are formed. An international team of researchers used Webb’s Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) instrument to map the temperature and density of ions found around 3,000 miles (5,000 kilometers) above Uranus’s cloud tops. The findings, published in Geophysical Research Letters, reveal how the planet’s eccentric magnetic field influences…

Before heading on a trip to Tahoe last weekend, GM offered me the use of the company’s 9,000-pound monument to excess – the new 2026 electric Escalade IQL (starting at $130,405) – for a week to test-drive. Before you continue, note that I’m not a professional car reviewer. TechCrunch has excellent transportation writers; I am not one of them. I do, however, drive an electric car. I was immediately game. I’d first glimpsed one last summer at a car show, where some regional car dealers had stationed themselves at the end of a long field dotted with exquisite vintage automobiles.…
