Wait, why is Dr Pepper so popular now?

Dr Pepper is, arguably, a weird drink. The name alone raises an eyebrow: Is it medicinal? Is it spicy? Is it similar to Coca-Cola, the most famous dark-brown soda in the world? Who is this eponymous doctor anyway? The label on the can claims it’s an “authentic blend” of 23 flavors but doesn’t clarify what […] Read more ›

A DNA test upended my family. Do I side with my grandmother — or her secret child?

Your Mileage May Vary is an advice column offering you a new framework for thinking through your ethical dilemmas and philosophical questions. This unconventional column is based on value pluralism — the idea that each of us has multiple values that are equally valid but that often conflict with each other. Here is a Vox […] Read more ›

Ta-Nehisi Coates has the diagnosis — but not the cure

With his new book The Message, Ta-Nehisi Coates, a journalist who indelibly shaped the national conversation on race in America during the Obama years, turns his scrupulous attention toward yet another tinderbox of a problem: that of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. His conclusions are highly provocative — and damning toward the Israeli government.  Coates, a former writer […] Read more ›

How Israel’s brutal war strategy has remade the Middle East

As the dust still hovers from the Israeli airstrikes that killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in his underground lair, and while bombs explode over the heads of Israeli targets from Beirut in Lebanon, to Damascus in Syria, to Rafah in Gaza, to Hudaydah in Yemen, we can see, emerging from the haze, the outlines of […] Read more ›

We should call the Republican justices “Republicans” and not “conservatives”

My more perceptive readers may have noticed that I’ve started referring to the justices of the Supreme Court as “Republicans” and “Democrats,” breaking with the traditional journalistic norm of labeling the justices “conservative” or “liberal.” In the interest of transparency, I want to explain why.  The short answer is that the words “Republican” and “Democrat” […] Read more ›

The miserable, utterly charmless razzle-dazzle of Joker: Folie à Deux 

Academy Award-nominated director Todd Phillips and his new sequel Joker: Folie à Deux bravely ask the daring question: What if the most annoying man you know got an equally annoying girlfriend? And what if they sang show tunes to each other? And what if you had to watch? The man in question is one Arthur […] Read more ›

The massive dock workers’ strike, explained

Workers at ports on the East and Gulf Coasts have agreed to go back to the docks — at least for now. Dock workers with the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) went on strike Tuesday following a breakdown in negotiations between the ILA and the organization of international shipping companies that employ them. Now, they are back […] Read more ›

An Ebola-like virus is spreading in Rwanda. Why isn’t there an approved vaccine for Marburg?

An outbreak of Marburg, a virus closely related to Ebola that can cause severe and often fatal disease, is spreading in Rwanda. As Africa struggles with compounding public health challenges, this one presents a rare silver lining: the chance to test new vaccines that could save lives across the continent in the future.  The first […] Read more ›

Saturday Night Live’s nostalgia is ruining the joke

In April, Kristen Wiig hosted Saturday Night Live, an occasion that, under normal circumstances, would merit some excitement. But anyone familiar with the peculiar lore of SNL would know better: This was Wiig’s fifth time hosting, and when someone hosts SNL five times, the opening monologue becomes absolutely unbearable. This is the fault of SNL’s […] Read more ›

Love Is Blind: DC sadly doesn’t feel like DC 

While Virginia is reportedly for lovers, most everyone acknowledges that nearby Washington, DC, is not. The nation’s capital has been consistently ranked as one of the worst places to date and one of the US’s worst cities for singles. Too many type As, too many people too into their jobs, too many people ready to […] Read more ›

What young voters see in Kamala Harris

Among the signs that the 2024 presidential contest is reverting to a more “normal” election is a big shift from the country’s youngest voters. After abandoning President Joe Biden in favor of third-party candidates, former President Donald Trump, or simply not voting, they have rallied to support Vice President Kamala Harris since her entrance to […] Read more ›

Get used to more absurdly hot Octobers

Much of the western United States is experiencing record temperatures — reaching the sorts of highs in October that are normally associated with some of the hottest days of summer. Palm Springs, California, hit a staggering 117 degrees Tuesday, setting a new October record for itself, and matching the highest temperature that’s ever been documented […] Read more ›

Florida criminalized homelessness. Then Hurricane Helene hit.

In the wake of Hurricane Helene, a devastating Category 4 storm that has ravaged the Southeast, leaders are rushing to restore homes, infrastructure and power for millions of people.

Israel has invaded Lebanon. Here’s what could come next.

Israel appears to be expanding a military invasion of Lebanon it initially said would be “limited,” launching hundreds of airstrikes on targets throughout the country, and engaging in ground combat in the country’s south. Several of Israel’s recent strikes have focused on the Lebanese capital Beirut; one of the most recent killed 46 people and […] Read more ›

Megalopolis, explained as best we can

One mortgaged winery, $136 million budget, several allegations of non-consensual kissing, and a crossdressing Shia LaBeouf later, Megalopolis is finally here — and it appears to be a “mega-flopolis.”  The film, a perplexing, oversaturated modern riff on the waning days of the Roman Republic — if Rome were New York City by way of Baz […] Read more ›

Nitrous, one of the oldest mind-altering drugs, is back

The sweet, odorless gas technically called nitrous oxide has many names: laughing gas, galaxy gas, hippy crack, whippets, even “the atmosphere of heaven.” Nitrous itself has just as many common uses as it does names. Doctors use it as a mild anesthetic, sending patients off into brief and largely pain-free dissociative euphorias before having a […] Read more ›

You’ve probably seen a satellite phone in a movie. Usually they’re depicted as black bricks that let you phone home from Mount Everest for $100 a minute. Whether you’re a mountaineer or not, the technology has gotten smaller, better, and much cheaper. In fact, you may have a satphone in your pocket right now and […] Read more ›

The Supreme Court will decide if Oklahoma must execute a man it doesn’t want to kill

In 2004, Richard Glossip was convicted of murder and sentenced to death. Since then, the case against him has completely fallen apart. The state of Oklahoma, which is currently holding Glossip on death row, commissioned two investigations looking into Glossip’s 20-year-old conviction.
