I don’t know what my skin is doing, and I don’t think it does either. Every skincare label insists on putting you in a nice and simple category: dry, oily, normal or combination. For years, I called myself “combination,” because that’s what someone told me once, and it sounded believable. ...
New York City Mayor Eric Adams has announced he will end his re‑election campaign just over a month before Election Day, reshaping the final stretch of the 2025 race. He said it wasn’t one thing that pushed him out; it was multiple that piled up. There’s been a lot of ...
Let me just say it: I cannot wear a baseball cap. I have tried. Many times. Some people throw on a baseball cap and look instantly cool. I put one on and look like a dad who’s lost his kids in the middle of a crowded theme park. It’s not ...
Each year on September 25, communities around the country pause to observe the National Day of Remembrance for Murder Victims — a day set aside to honor lives lost to homicide and to offer support for grieving families. One of the most powerful tributes comes from Harlem Mothers S.A.V.E. (Stop Another ...
Do you remember last election season, when all of these celebrities were posting about voting for Kamala Harris? I know I do. It seems they start making posts about voting every year. However, the real question is: does their support help, or does it merely become a diversion from the ...
Complaints of excessive force against the NYPD have increased to the highest number they’ve been since 2013, according to a new report released by the New York City Comptroller’s Office.

Jimmy Kimmel is back — and he didn’t waste any time addressing the elephant in the room. After being suspended by ABC last week, the late-night host started his show off by thanking everyone who checked in on him, calling out several of his fellow talk show hosts by name. ...
I watched football on Sunday, and now I’m gonna talk about it like I actually know a thing or two (spoiler: I don’t — but the vibes usually tell me everything I need to know). The only two games I paid enough attention to to really comment on were the ...
Alright, I’ll say it: most of us are not spending our weekends trying to understand government stuff or showing up at city hall with a sign. Some people are (and truly, good for them), but the rest of us are just doing our best — juggling life, laundry, and whatever ...
Ask me how a bill becomes a law and I’ll stare at you like you just asked me to do long division in my head with no paper, no calculator and no hope. But ask me what snack I’d vote for? Suddenly, I’ve got a platform, a campaign, and a ...
I have one skincare product. Just one. More specifically, it’s CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion, a product I chose after exactly zero dermatology consultations but dozens of TikToks convinced me it was a solid choice. It sits on my bathroom sink like an overworked employee doing the job of seven people. ...
