Why the best holidays are taken alone If, like me, you are an intensely curious commitment-phobe, then there is no greater pleasure than solo travelling.

Grindcore is the new hustle culture In Silicon Valley, long hours have fused with a monastic male wellness aesthetic

I read this, and I am freshly reminded that one of the most important insights in humanism is that this our one and only life.

… perhaps this is the fate of the Jewish people: to long for a place where they cannot be. I left, yearning for Vilnius but heartbroken by it. As the song of the Vilna Ghetto goes: β€œβ€¦ Something tightens my heart, something yearns for the days that once were.”

I wrote a porn film. Can I still be a feminist? Katie Glass worries that enjoying porn makes her a hypocrite. Can erotica ever be female friendly? But then she gets the chance to make her own film in Italy

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

β€œFor too long, we had a rental market where tenants could be kicked out with short notice without thought of eviction, and don’t have enough control over their homes, or pets that they may be able to have in their building or how they decorate.

But ultimately these are people’s homes
