All I ever want is to set my Facebook News Feed to chronological. I don’t care what Facebook thinks I should look at, or what it thinks are the most popular posts around my friend network. I just want to view everyone’s posts based on the time they post them. That’s it.
This morning, New York finally passed legislation to legalize recreational cannabis, making it the 16th state to do so, and the second largest by population after California. Legally partaking for fun is now an option for around 91 million Americans over the age of 21—but even if you aren’t one of them, you don’t have…
“Flushable” wipes sound great. In theory, you use them like a baby wipe—just on your own grown-up butt—with no need to toss your poop-smeared wipe it into the garbage can. Just flush, and away it goes. But is this really a good idea? Probably not: A report by Bloomberg indicates the National Association of Clean Water…
Pfizer and BioNTech announced today that they have completed a phase 3 trial of their COVID-19 vaccine in children aged 12 to 15, and that so far it seems to be 100% effective in that age group. If the FDA agrees that the vaccine is safe and effective, it might be available for ages 12 and up this summer.
National Burrito Day lands on April Fool’s Day this year, but thankfully restaurants aren’t playing around with their deals. Starting tomorrow, restaurants like Pollo Loco and Moe’s Southwest Grill are offering buy-one-get-one deals, $5 burritos, and more. Less useful but still good, Chipotle is inviting people to play…
When kids are little, we wish and wish for a break. We are everything to them—they hang on our every word and tell us every detail about their own day, no matter how mundane those details may be. We yearn for a time when things will be quieter, when they’ll stop grabbing at us, needing us for every little thing. And…
The iOS app screen shows all the apps installed on your iPhone—or does it? There’s actually a hidden QR scanner app on all iPhones running iOS 14 that you can’t normally find in the app launcher. The “Code Scanner” app is already integrated into the iOS Camera app—it’s how your phone can recognize QR codes—but can…
Generally speaking, April Fool’s Day presents three possibilities: Annoying pranks that ultimately inspire a laugh, horrible pranks that go terribly awry, and the opportunity for brands to remind us that they should never tweet.

Brunch without a cocktail is merely a late breakfast, and Easter brunch is no exception. There are no “official” Easter cocktails, but I usually go for beverages that look pretty, and match the vibe of an Easter egg. Don’t let their looks deceive you however, these drinks pack a punch (or a bunny kick, as it were).
Let me tell you all a little household cleaning story: Our former editor-in-chief, Alice Bradley, sent me a social media video of someone showing how to unscrew your toilet seat to clean off the gunk under the brackets. Now, I am one to go to town on my bathroom with some foaming bleach cleanser, but had never seen…
Earlier today, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo signed legislation legalizing recreational cannabis in the Empire state. That brings the number of states where recreational use is permitted to 16; cannabis (as opposed to THC-free CBD) is still wholly illegal in 14 states. Every other state falls somewhere in the middle.…
Now that spring is here, it’s time to start thinking about your outdoor plans for the next few months. Is there a particular park that you’ve visited as a guest and want to commit to for the entire season? What about camping and hiking permits?
When I think back to this time last year, I mainly remember all the walking. My son and I would head out at lunchtime to take a familiar loop around the neighborhood. He’d bring a basketball to bounce along the sidewalk as I paused to take pictures of the tiniest of buds that seemed to be blooming right before my…
It’s totally fine to prefer “buy now, pay later” payments over credit cards or to simply avoid the debt trap of plastic altogether. The only problem is that without credit cards, it’s harder to build up your credit score, which means you’ll have a tougher time qualifying for a loan. Fortunately, there are ways to…

Whether you’re looking to make a larger investment or you just want to dabble in cryptocurrencies, you can purchase Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, and Litecoin through PayPal. And, soon, you’ll be able to pay various merchants using your cryptocurrency stash—which PayPal will automatically convert into dollars for…
You’re probably not washing your sheets as often as you should. A survey done by the Mattress Advisor found that, on average, people will wait about 24 days before changing them—and the number was even higher for pillowcases. Here’s how often you should be washing your linens, and why.
I wish I had a noble reason for lying in bed and sampling jellified beer from a cocktail glass on a Friday morning—but the actual explanation is, well, anime. Anime has served as my and my spouse’s pandemic hobby, and we have watched at least two dozen series in the past year. We recently finished The Disastrous Life…

Growing up, my favorite movies were Indiana Jones, The Lord of the Rings, James Bond—anything with action and adventure. They typically starred daring men, but as a young woman I started admire more powerful, smart women who could command a room. Fast forward to today, and more women than ever are badasses who command…
Google recently showed off a slate of new Google Maps features Android and iOS users are getting this year. The first is indoor AR directions for Map’s Live View mode, which is rolling out now in select U.S. cities.
The go-to resource for anyone curious about a new gig’s salary is Glassdoor, given the site teems with crowdsourced salaries for various positions at literally thousands of companies. If you take Glassdoor’s salaries at face value, then you’ll have a pretty decent indication of what this prospective job might pay.…
Our digestive system is a hugely important part of our bodies, and its health is rightly important to us. Without good gut health, we might be in pain, or suffer embarrassing symptoms, or worse. But it does not follow that we need to load up on foods or products that promise to improve our gut health.
Days before it was to expire, the CDC has extended its national moratorium on evictions, which now stretches through June 30. Unless you make more than $99,000 a year, it’s still illegal for your landlords to evict you or force you to pay rent. Here’s what you need to know about the moratorium and your rights as a…
LinkedIn is launching a brand-new tool that you can use to make an impression on those who might want to hire you. The service’s new “Video Cover Stories” are just one more lever you’ll have to pull to make yourself as competitive as everyone else, so you might as well start planning now.
Spring is here, and I’ve been thinking a lot more about my wardrobe—and how sick I am of it. Even though I cleaned out my closet fairly recently, I still counted at least 25 clothing items that I don’t wear regularly anymore. But what should I do with all my tired sweaters and dresses?
Often, a group of people carve out time in their work day for a meeting without any semblance of clear direction. In the pandemic era, this is especially annoying because remote work means we’re all a bit more scattered than usual, and videoconferencing, with all of its imperfections, only serves to compound the…
When you get your first dose of a two-dose COVID-19 vaccine (in other words, the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines), evidence indicates your protection begins about two weeks later—before you get the second dose. That’s good news, but it doesn’t mean you can skip the second dose.
Even the most seasoned egg deviler makes mistakes. When paired with a stubborn refusal to measure anything, an unbridled enthusiasm for mayonnaise or a faulty mustard bottle can result in a deviled egg filling that’s just a little too heavy on the condiments. Instead of being creamy—yet fluffy—too much mayo or…
If you’ve ever had to stop and ask yourself, “is it easier said than done, or easier said then done,” you are not alone. We probably don’t think about “than” versus “then” too often when we’re speaking because they sound so similar anyway. When we’re writing, though, these two little words, which look and function so…
Turns out, there’s a 100 percent effective way to teach people to drive a stick shift. I first heard it several years ago from the sainted Tappet Brothers, and I’ve taught maybe 25 or 30 people to drive a manual with it since — with a zero percent failure rate.
Apple released patches for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch over the weekend that all users should install immediately. The patches fixes a dangerous zero-day vulnerability that hackers are actively exploiting.
If you are a parent of a child or children who live at home with you, I’m going to take a wild guess here and say: You need a break. And no, a break does not constitute one masked-up hour in a grocery store, trying to limit the number of things you touch (I mean, unless you’re really into that sort of thing—everyone…

The IRS recently clarified that personal protective equipment like face masks, hand sanitizer, and disinfecting wipes can now be deducted as medical expenses—and the tax break applies to health savings accounts, as well. Here’s what you need to know to claim the tax break.
Magic erasers are incredibly versatile cleaning products, capable of removing even the stubbornest stains and hardened gunk from a variety of surfaces. But sometimes, they work a little too well, taking off a little bit of paint or varnish along with the gunk. This is because magic erasers are abrasive cleaners that…
Piracy and stealing are wrong. That’s a given. But also, I think it’s shitty when companies release limited edition items that can have a decisive impact on your gaming experience, but make them so scarce that the only way to get your hands on one of them is to buy it from an unscrupulous reseller.
Common kitchen wisdom dictates that hard-boiled eggs must be “shocked” in an ice bath to stop the cooking process and make them easier to peel, but only half of this is true, and the other half can be easily mitigated, meaning you can leave the ice in the freezer.

You’ve probably owned a lot of video game consoles in your day. I mean, at this point, you can probably measure out your age in console generations. Something like “I’m seven generations old.” While I leave you to stew over that existential crisis, I have a bit of a nostalgic question for our readers today: what’s the…
Flaky, itchy skin between your toes is the classic sign of athlete’s foot. This fungal infection is often treatable with over-the-counter ointments, but there are a few things you should know before you start.
As a client in talk therapy, it can feel like there’s an unspoken boundary between you and your therapist concerning what questions you’re allowed to ask about their personal life. Can you ask them if they are married or single, or if they have kids, or about their political beliefs? Should you?
