Something Ate the Dinosaurs After the Asteroid Killed Them, Scientists Say

The dinosaurs had a good run and a brutal end that, according to new research, somehow got even more brutal after they died. Because while the asteroid that slammed into Earth 66 million years ago wiped out most large life on the planet, it apparently created ideal conditions for fungi to inherit the Earth, feeding on the global buffet of dead dinos. According to a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences , researchers found evidence that massive fungal blooms spread across the globe in the aftermath of the Chicxulub asteroid impact that ended the reign of the dinosaurs, essentially turning the planet into a giant heap of compost that gave fungi plenty to eat. Researchers Rosanna Baker and Arturo Casadevall from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health examined ancient sediment samples from sites in Colorado and North Dakota, looking for fossilized fungal spores around the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction boundary. The Dinosaur-Killing Aste...

Sleep-Obsessed Millennials Are Ditching Melatonin… Here’s Why

Image
For years, melatonin basically owned the sleep wellness category. If somebody couldn’t sleep, the automatic answer was usually some variation of “just take melatonin.” Gummies , capsules, sleepy mocktails, teas, dissolvable tablets, pillow sprays, skin patches… the supplement became unavoidable and put into anything practical. But lately, melatonin’s reputation has gotten a little complicated . A growing number of millennials are starting to rethink their relationship with the supplement, especially people deep into wellness culture who spent years experimenting with sleep hacks , routines, and recovery habits. The issue isn’t that melatonin is suddenly bad. So don’t worry about it if you need to take it. But a lot of people are realizing that it doesn’t always feel as simple and predictable as they originally thought. As sleep wellness keeps evolving, people are starting to move away from the whole “just knock yourself out...

Gen Z Is Shopping for Vibrators the Way Millennials Shopped for Glossier

Image
As a sex and wellness editor , I’ve noticed a new trend across every PR package… Everything looks like it belongs in the millennial-coded Glossier era. You know, clean lines, pops of earthy and/or feminine colors, and messaging that screams “for you.” That era became synonymous with the “shelfie,” aka the iconic photos of your beauty cabinet that reveal everything you use daily. Glossier’s founder, Emily Weiss , brought the brand to its popularity by revealing the products that It girls swore by, but via shelfie. I first noticed it with Necessarie’s The Sex Gel , laced with the viral moisturizer, hyaluronic acid. Before I realized it, my sex toy shelf started looking more like a beauty fridge and less like a BDSM -dungeon with the whips and 6-inch Demonia platforms to match. How TF did we get here? Hiding in Plain Sight Sex is still technically taboo, but somewhere along the way, every intimate wellness brand got the same memo: hide in plain sight. The internal design qu...

Google’s Search Bar Looking a Little Weird Today? This Is Why.

Image
Ever since Google became the dominant search engine around the turn of the millennium, it’s functioned in more or less the same way. You type your keywords, and out pops a list of glowy-blue links, with tiny summaries in black text underneath each, provided by the website owner themselves. Then on May 20, 2026 Google announced a fairly major overhaul of how Google search works. Today’s changes go far beyond the AI summaries that’d been appearing at the top of Google searches for the past couple of years, and they’re already causing plenty of anger, confusion, and hand-wringing across the internet. a big, big tweak Rather than simply provide a sidelong glance’s worth of an AI-summarized paragraph or two, as is currently the default on Google searches, the new AI infusion unleashes Google to take a much more comprehensive role and push AI-generated summaries, graphs, and charts to the forefront, along with tasks, such as finding tickets for spor...

Students Keep Booing AI During Commencement Speeches, and Honestly, They Might Be Right

It’s commencement speech season, and colleges across the country have trotted out one miserable, AI brain-rotted business loser after another so they can inevitably sing the praises of AI, their words getting drowned out by a spontaneous chorus of boos belted out from the crowd of young graduates who viscerally despise the technology. They know how thoroughly it’s ruining their generation, their brains, their job prospects, and their futures. The speakers try to muscle through it in a way that you know is giving a gaggle of tech bro losers over at Twitter/X a giant boner as they probably think these old, deeply unpopular AI brain-rotted business idiots are just as heroic as any civil rights icon from the 1960s. What’s hysterical about it isn’t that it’s happened once, but several times in the past week alone. Rather than take the stage and fight in the name of the younger generation that’s getting squeezed out in the name of a technology that they don’t want, that almost ...
