On the internet, everything is forever. At least that’s what we were told as we sat in the library for grade school web safety seminars. Forever sounded nice to me, like something magical, the end of a fairy tale: They lived happily ever after, forever and ever—but this was a bad forever, the librarian said. Once it’s out there, it’s out there, and it’s coming back to get you.
My parents were Gen X tech-savvy, and street-smart enough to install parental controls, ban me from creating a Myspace or Facebook account, and disable the free chat feature on my Club Penguin. There would be no talking to strangers if they could help it. They tried to instill in me a distrust of corporations and a disdain for people who made posts about their mundane lives. So I just clicked around and consumed and consumed. This was long before the algorithms were strong enough to lead you down a set ideological path, or toward the mind-numbing avant-garde popular content of today (like the Elsagate videos, dark content seemingly geared toward children, and the terrifying Skibidi Toilet web series). Being a kid alone online was exhilarating, but the world inside the computer felt fraught, small, and in need of constant attention. Virtual pets starving from my lack of regular logging-on haunted my dreams. My igloo was bare and my penguin naked, so embarrassing.

How to Antiage Your Dog- Could a new pill help dogs (and us) live longer?
Celine Halioua is a dog lover who studied neuroscience and nanobiotechnology. Her thesis is that the short lifespan of big dogs is like "an accelerated aging disorder, an unintended consequence of historical inbreeding for size." In an effort to correct genetic mistakes, Loyal's drug LOY-001 reduces insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1), a biomarker hormone, also present in humans, that drives cell growth and is key to regulating the aging process. The hope is that it will slow down this process to a more sustainable rate, so that big dogs can have more healthy years. The injectable medication would be given by a vet every three to six months, starting at age seven, for dogs 40 pounds and up. Clinical trials are now underway for LOY-002, a daily pill for older dogs of nearly all but the smallest breeds. "Research is ongoing, but we think they will help dogs get at least one extra year of healthy living," Halioua says.

Hoyeon Takes Hollywood - With her first English-speaking role with an A-list director, the model and Squid Game alum is proving she's here to stay.
With her first English-speaking role with an A-list director, the model and Squid Game alum is proving she's here to stay. Her debut acting role in Squid Game made her a breakout star in 2021 for her magnetic performance as Kang Sae-byeok, a North Korean defector with an "I'm not here to make friends" iciness, who participates in the deadly competition to provide for her little brother. A year later, she won a Screen Actors Guild Award for Female Actor in a Drama Series. Now she has 18.8 million followers on Instagram and fans all over the world. (When a group of NYC teenage girls wearing baggy jeans spot her outside the Chinatown coffee shop we've moved to post-steak, they quiver and audibly freak out.)
