Peaches are one of America’s most recognizable fruits. In the US, hundreds of thousands of tons are produced each year, and the fruit is closely tied to one place in particular: Georgia. The Georgia peach is on license plates, road signs, and even county names. But today, the state doesn’t grow the most peaches. Not […] Read more ›

It can be hard to make sense of James Fishback. The longshot Florida Republican gubernatorial candidate is the son of an immigrant and fiercely nativist, a self-proclaimed finance success story turned economic populist, and both pro-Trump and running against President Donald Trump’s chosen candidate. He’s also openly racist and antisemitic. But one thing is for […] Read more ›

I accepted the risk when I ordered a penguin from Argentina: Uncle Sam might tax it. It wasn’t one of the actual flightless birds; it was a green ceramic pitcher resembling a penguin with a curved handle and beak serving as a spout, often used to pour house wines at cheap bars in Buenos Aires.

Over the last two decades, the availability of plant-based foods has exploded. You can get a meat-free patty in your Burger King Whopper if that’s your thing, buy realistic “chicken” nuggets at your local grocery store, or order marbled plant-based steak from food startups. But one animal-free food category has truly escaped containment from the vegan […] Read more ›

In the early 1800s, in southwestern Germany, outbreaks of a mysterious illness spread throughout the countryside. People who came down with it had terrible symptoms. Their eyelids would droop. Their speech would slur. They’d be gripped by a paralysis that, once it reached their breathing muscles, could be fatal. A young doctor named Justinus Kerner […] Read more ›

For the past quarter century, the future of monarch butterflies has looked dire, with these iconic American insects flitting toward extinction. Now, however, there is at least a small reason for hope: New data from WWF Mexico, a large conservation group, offers further evidence that the decline of eastern monarchs — the world’s largest population — has […] Read more ›

This morning, Joe Kent — the director of the National Counterterrorism Center — resigned in protest over the war in Iran. “I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war,” he said in a resignation letter addressed to Trump and published on X. You’d think that a war critic like myself should welcome this development. The […] Read more ›

To its fiercest critics, “populism” is a politics of mindless resentment: The populist’s animating ambition is not to help people in general — or the downtrodden in particular — so much as to hurt some vilified elite. If afflicting the comfortable also requires discomforting the afflicted, so be it. Personally, I think this is wildly […] Read more ›

Where would humanity be without our mild delusion? Many of the technologies we take for granted, from the light bulb to iPhones, would cease to exist without relentless resolve. Stephen King, rejected dozens of times, persisted and became one of the world’s top-selling authors. Any entrepreneur maintains a bit of in the face of the staggering […] Read more ›

Warm temps and patio happy hours are on the horizon, so you know what that means: It’s time to play the IRS’s favorite twisted (and forced) guessing game: We’re going to make you figure out how much you owe us in taxes, even though we already know! If you aren’t super financially savvy — which, […] Read more ›

There are already clear losers from the war in Iran: The battered Iranian regime itself, the civilians under heavy bombardment in Iran and Lebanon, the Gulf countries’ whose reputation as a stable safe haven have been shattered by missiles and drones, the people everywhere — but particularly in the world’s poorest countries — impacted by high fuel […] Read more ›

For much of the past eight years, the political fight over transgender rights in America has centered on two questions: whether trans women and girls should play on sports teams matching their gender identity, and whether minors should have access to gender-related medical treatment. Those debates aren’t over, but the policy and legal fights are […] Read more ›

After spending the past several months engaged in an intense Oscar campaign for Mary Supreme — including claiming that his performance as pompous ping-pong player Marty Mauser was his best work to date — Timothée Chalamet ultimately lost Best Actor to Sinners star Michael B.

Heading into the Oscars on Sunday night, the buzz surrounding Sinners and director Ryan Coogler was that they could be Hollywood’s biggest surprise. In the same way that the movie surpassed box office expectations (it’s made more than $369 million worldwide to date), it could perhaps defy the odds and take home the night’s biggest […] Read more ›

If you tend to sob every tax season while compiling your yearly expenses or checking random boxes on TurboTax, then you have come to the right place.
