Why is going to the pharmacy so miserable these days? - If you've been to a pharmacy to pick up a prescription lately, you might have wanted to bang your head against the wall.
Chains and independent pharmacies alike are shortstaffed, leading to long lines. Customers are finding empty shelves and chaotic operations. Satisfaction with brick-andmortar pharmacies in the U.S. dropped 10 points in 2024 alone, a study by J.D. Power found.Running the businesses is getting harder too. Without a doubt, this is the worst it's ever been, says Enrique Reynoso, who has been a pharmacist since 1991 and owns Beacon Wellness Pharmacy, a small shop in upstate New York. Reynoso has tried to do everything he can to stay afloatputting drugs in smaller bottles to save costs, asking customers to pay by Venmo since creditcard fees are so high, diversifying the merchandise he sells in the front of his stores.
Inside Ukraine's Troubled Outreach to Trump - Many nations keep a nervous eye on U.S.presidential races, but none have as much at stake this time as the Ukrainians.
Zelensky's first public event that day was a visit to an arms factory in Scranton, Pa., which he toured alongside the state's Democratic governor, Josh Shapiro. The visit allowed Zelensky to express his gratitude to all the American workers producing weapons for Ukraine. But the optics did not sit well with the Trump campaign.

She may claim to be short and sweet, but never underestimate the mighty power behind Sabrina Carpenter's talent. It's the reason she has catapulted to her earned spot as one of today's leading pop artists. She proves great things come in small packages. As a fellow 5-ft. female with a similar working-adolescent Disney history, I firsthand recognize and respect what it takes to maintain clarity while delivering within the demands of this business.Sabrina handles the task with seemingly effortless ease and charisma while promoting, performing, and handling press with a smile and her signature coy charm. I wanted to get to know the person beyond the undeniable worldwide successincluding her newest single, Taste-to see how she operates on a personal level. When we met, the woman I discovered was refreshingly calm, collected, down to earth, and focused. Sabrina is where she is for a reason and ahead of her years.
Kate Winslet Puts Lee Miller in the Frame - Kate Winslet loves tables. She loves them so much that the Oscar-winning actor collects them.
Kate Winslet loves tables. She loves them so much that the Oscar-winning actor collects them. There is nothing fancy about these antiques, but they enchant her. "It's the knots and the whorls, the shape and feel," she says. "They can feel like old friends, and there is something emotionally charging about an old table that comes with a history-I find imagining what that might be enormous fun."
Alfonso Cuarón Goes Long - The Oscar-winning filmmaker finds pathos in our lonely present in his first TV miniseries
A perceptive, generous-spirited child draws on her imagination when she's subjected to the cruelty of a boarding-school headmistress. A lone astronaut, cradled in a damaged space capsule and having lost any hope of returning to Earth, experiences a hallucination that saves her life. A young household servant, abandoned by the man who's gotten her pregnant, miscarries-though his betrayal helps her define what family truly means to her. Loneliness, so universal it has virtually become trademarked the Human Condition, is everywhere in art, and in life: we tend to fetishize it, or at least dab it with a perfume of sentimentality. But Alfonso Cuarón, now more than 30 years into a wide-ranging career that spans pictures like the Frances Hodgson Burnett adaptation A Little Princess, the space reverie Gravity, and the memoir-as-film drama Roma, is more interested in subtle emotional textures, in gradations of feeling that are always specific to the character at hand yet also joltingly recognizable. And now he brings his big-screen, big-story gifts to a limited series, an adaptation of Renée Knight's 2015 psychological thriller Disclaimer.
