A man processes milk fresh from a cow on a dairy farm. | Universal Images Group via Getty It has everything to do with Americans’ distrust in government.

Teletherapy can really help, and really hurt

Jakub Porzycki/NurPhoto via Getty Images From privacy breaches to bad providers, teletherapy services often come with a hidden cost. The US has a therapist shortage. Even if you can find one, good luck snagging an appointment with a therapist who is affordable or covered by your insurance. That’s where online therapy platforms like BetterHelp come in. Even if you’re not a user, you’ve almost certainly heard of them. For years,... Read more ›

The end of coral reefs as we know them

Paige Vickers/Vox Years ago, scientists made a devastating prediction about the ocean. Now it’s unfolding. Several years ago, the world’s top climate scientists made a frightening prediction: If the planet warms by 1.5 degrees Celsius, relative to preindustrial times, 70 to 90 percent of coral reefs globally would die off. At an increase of 2°C, that number jumps to more than 99 percent. These researchers were essentially describing the global... Read more ›

Bridgerton’s third season is its best yet — but not because of romance

Nicola Coughlan and Claudia Jessie in Bridgerton. | Liam Daniel/Netflix The fractured friendship between Pen and Eloise centers the Netflix hit. Here’s a confession worthy of a scandal sheet: Bridgerton isn’t actually that great at romance.

Why can’t prices just stay the same?

If high inflation hurts just about everyone, why can’t we have no inflation? Over the past few years, most of the world has experienced some pretty intense inflation, with prices rising as much as 10 percent in a single year. In 2024, even though inflation rates have fallen to more manageable levels, prices are still way up and are very unlikely to come down. Which, understandably, continues to be a... Read more ›

Psychedelics could treat some of the worst chronic pain in the world

Anton Vierietin/Getty Images Decades of citizen science are finally translating into clinical trials for psychedelic pain treatments. Here’s another strange and under-studied prospect of psychedelics: a world without severe chronic pain. For Court Wing, a former martial artist and CrossFit trainer, the most surprising thing about participating in a 2020 clinical trial at NYU for psilocybin and major depressive disorder wasn’t that his depression — which had resisted treatment for...
