Your phone is the key to your digital life. Make sure you know what to do if you lose it.

A terrifying image, especially if you haven’t prepared for the prospect of suddenly losing your phone. | Peter Cade/Getty ImagesPreparing yourself for the worst is easier than you might think — and it’s never been more important.

Sunset in South Carolina’s Lowcountry. | Ashley Reherman/ShutterstockFive deaths, millions in fraud, and 100 years of family power crumbling to ruin in South Carolina. While the most gripping true crime stories take us into the darkest parts of the soul, rarely does a case open the ugly heart of the nation itself. The labyrinthine case that’s come to be dubbed “the Murdaugh murders” feels like one that could only happen... Read more ›

Is the green texting bubble about to burst?

Those notorious green Android texts will stick around for a while yet. | Javier Zayas Photography/VoxApple is adopting Google’s texting standard, but blue bubble elitism will probably continue. The story is sad, yet so familiar to iPhone owners. You meet someone new and give them your number, only to receive a green (harsh, unwelcoming), not blue (peaceful, comforting), text bubble. If you deign to respond, you’re confronted with restrictive character... Read more ›

The Crown increasingly becomes a fantastical apologetic for the royal family

Elizabeth Debicki as Diana in season six of The Crown. | Daniel Escale/NetflixThe Netflix hit faced backlash for being too fictional. Season 6 doubles down. As Netflix’s The Crown has progressed, its creator and arbiter Peter Morgan has increasingly preferred a humanist touch when it comes to his royal subjects, even if it means overly romanticizing them or politely declining to hold them responsible for their worst moments. That certainly... Read more ›

Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving is finally here. Was it worth the 16-year wait?

The masked killer of Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving. | TristarPatrick Dempsey and TikToker Addison Rae star in an overbaked entry into the holiday horror genre. Eli Roth’s new film Thanksgiving bills itself as a tongue-in-cheek slasher about a killer stalking the streets of Plymouth, Massachusetts, the birthplace of the holiday. The film’s tagline — “This Thanksgiving, there will be NO LEFTOVERS!” — suggests a campy, silly time at the movies. Unfortunately... Read more ›

Why do we keep tabs on people we can’t stand?

Simone Noronha for VoxHow to stop checking on your ex — and everyone else you love to hate — on social media. In the early days of the internet, a hater was the worst thing you could be. Spite and sarcasm had no place in a sea of people who watched videos of babies laughing or tended to their virtual farms. Thankfully, as time passed, we as a society have... Read more ›

Something weird happens when you keep squeezing

Under extreme pressures, matter defies the rules of physics as we know it. Physicists have a pretty good handle on how stuff behaves on the surface of the Earth. But a lot of matter in the universe exists outside this narrow band of relatively low temperatures and pressures. Inside planets and stars, the crushing force of gravity begins to overwhelm the electromagnetic and nuclear forces that keep atoms apart and... Read more ›
