There was a time when getting mail was exciting. Maybe it was a handwritten letter, a glossy magazine, or if you were lucky a package from a friend. Now? The mail has become a bit of a roulette wheel, especially if you’re an online shopping enthusiast like me. […]
There’s something oddly comforting about the fact that, while we’re up here arguing about pumpkin spice versus peppermint mocha, ocean scientists have just discovered dozens of new species hanging out at the bottom of the Southern Ocean including, a carnivorous “death ball” sponge. Yes, you read that right. […]
Halloween finally arrived. The day of glorious weirdness I’ve been waiting for all month. And naturally, I woke up at 4:14 a.m. because my body apparently wanted to pregame the day with exhaustion. Who needs sleep when there’s candy corn to contemplate and costumes to coordinate? By the […]
What’s something you believe everyone should know. There are few things in life as satisfying as an underdog story except maybe a perfectly toasted bagel with schmear on a Sunday morning. But this World Series? It’s pure underdog magic with extra innings of heart. Who knew the Toronto […]

For reasons that defy logic, caffeine, or the laws of neural firing, R.E.M.’s “What’s the Frequency, Kenneth?” has set up camp in my brain. Rent-free. No deposit, no lease, just living there playing at 3 a.m., during Zoom meetings, and while I’m feeding the dogs. Now, I haven’t […]
I’ve been rather lucky in life (knock on wood before I jinx it) that I’ve had relatively good skin. No teenage acne saga, no adult “why now?” breakouts. My skin and I have had a stable, mutually respectful relationship. I feed it soap and play and seek with […]
Apparently, the LSAT is back in vogue. In September 2024, about 18,811 people registered to take it. Fast forward one year, and 32,170 brave souls signed up in September 2025. That’s a jump big enough to make you wonder: are we entering a new Age of the Lawyer? […]
