The Supreme Court just handed down two surprisingly timid Voting Rights Act decisions

On Monday, the Supreme Court decided not to thrust another dagger into the nearly lifeless corpse of the Voting Rights Act. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 is arguably the most successful civil rights law in American history. Before the Roberts Court began to dismantle it, the VRA included a web of provisions intended to […] Read more ›

MAGA’s favorite psychedelic

The Trump administration has a surprising new agenda item: It’s all-in on legalizing a psychedelic drug called ibogaine.  Ibogaine is classified as a Schedule I drug, which means it’s illegal on the federal level. But some studies show it may be able to treat opioid addiction, and researchers are also hopeful that it can help […] Read more ›

Photos reveal strange sea creatures that scientists have never seen before

It lives in a glass castle deep under the sea.  It’s not a character from The Little Mermaid but a very real, very mysterious marine worm. Known as Dalhousiella yabukii, the worm resides inside a glass sea sponge — a simple marine animal that forms a glass-like skeleton — in the cold, dark waters off […] Read more ›

An HIV-free generation is closer than you think

Ismail Harerimana grew up in Uganda not knowing why he was always sick.  His childhood in the 1990s was a string of recurrent infections: malaria, diarrhea, headaches, and skin rashes. By 14, he was scarily thin, at which point doctors put him on a new medication that seemed to help. It was for kidney disease, […] Read more ›

No one likes how animals are treated on factory farms. But no one wants to stop eating them.

Of all the hot-button social issues in America, there’s one that often flies under the radar but can unleash a torrent of strong feelings — swirling with apparent contradictions — when it surfaces: meat.  Case in point: Last month, the popstar Billie Eilish argued that you can’t say you love animals and eat them. Her […] Read more ›

You have more time than you think. Here are 5 science-backed ways to find it

If there’s one thing Americans can agree on — beyond the fact we hate data centers and love Dolly Parton — it’s that we’re busier than ever, and it’s all too much. We don’t have time to socialize, we don’t have time to sleep, and we don’t have time for fun. We’re a uniquely overworked […] Read more ›

Data centers could actually be good for your hometown

The only good data center is a canceled data center. Or so a growing number of Americans seem to feel.  Throughout the United States, citizens are mobilizing against the construction of new data centers in general — and the massive, “hyperscale” ones that fuel artificial intelligence, in particular.  The past four years have witnessed an […] Read more ›

How to fall in love with humanity again

A lot of humans are feeling very down on humanity these days. Maybe you’ve met them. Or maybe you’re one of them.    I’m talking about those who look around and say: Humans are destroying the planet — causing climate change, making other species go extinct.

It often feels like we’re on the brink of disaster: Diseases lurk behind every corner and global instability threatens the economy. But beyond the doomsday scenarios, it’s important to be prepared for more practical reasons: Extreme weather events, for example, have become a fact of life.

Inside the fight over America’s data centers

Make no mistake: Americans hate data centers. A recent poll from Gallup shows 70 percent of Americans oppose a data center in their local area, including 48 percent who are strongly opposed.

Could you spot an AI-written book?

However you feel about AI writing, it has a few giveaways. According to the writer Imogen West-Knights, “there’s things like negative parallelisms…or excessive use of metaphor and similes, especially ones that don’t quite make sense or that come very rapidly, one after another. Every noun having an adjective attached, certain kinds of repetitive syntactical blocks […] Read more ›

Millions of people voted for these animal welfare laws. Congress is trying to overturn them.

Last year, nearly 130 million pigs were raised for meat in the US, but they didn’t come out of nowhere; they had parents. Or as pork producers call them, “breeder pigs.”  Since the 1970s, producers have been keeping most of the breeding females — known as sows — in tiny enclosures called gestation crates. It’s […] Read more ›
