Aries, November 2026: Your Monthly Horoscope

You’ve never had trouble getting started, Aries. Give you half a reason to move and you’re already out the door, keys in hand, while everyone else is still asking about parking. November hands you an unfamiliar problem: too much fuel and too many places to spend it. Mars spends nearly the whole month in Leo, the sign that loves a big gesture, and right in the middle of it all, your planet teams up with Jupiter, the one that makes everything bigger. Opportunities will come at you from all sides. Your job this month is deciding which ones get your best effort and which ones get a polite no. The first week and a half is a warm-up, and a pleasant one. Around the 10th, Venus forms a sextile with Mars, which smooths out your edges in a way people will notice. You’ll come across as charming and easy to talk to, a welcome change of pace for someone who usually leads with intensity. Use it. If you’ve been putting off a conversation with a collaborator, a landlord, a crush, or a boss, this ...

Scientists Might Finally Know Why Older Guys Pee Multiple Times a Night

As you get older, your body gets weirder , malfunctioning in some awfully creative, uniquely torturous ways, like how those with a prostate will have to wake up a few times a night to dribble out an obnoxiously small amount of pee. This is because the prostate commonly enlarges in men as they age, though why it does so when cancer isn’t involved has been a little bit of a mystery. A research team from Johns Hopkins University , publishing their findings in the Journal of Pathology , may have found an answer. Doctors knew that benign prostatic hyperplasia starts in one specific part of the organ: the transition area around the urethra. Why that tiny ring of tissue suddenly started pumping out extra cells out of nowhere while the rest of the gland kept on doing its thing wasn’t well understood. By running single-cell RNA sequencing on around 130,000 individual prostate cells, the researchers discovered a brand-new subtype of basal epithelial cells called WIF1+ (which, writte...

Adorable Venomous Primate Thought Extinct Discovered Hanging Out in People’s Backyards

Image
As the world teeters on ecological collapse, it’s occasionally nice to hear that an animal that was once thought to have gone extinct was just really good at hiding. Take the Bangka slow loris, an extremely slow primate that lives in trees and is also venomous. For years, it had been considered critically endangered, maybe even fully extinct, as the last time any scientific team saw one was back in the 1930s. But it’s back, and according to new research published in Spixiana , there are at least 90 of them hanging out on the island of Bangka, off the southern coast of Sumatra. Scientists thought this nocturnal tree-dweller was gone, but local residents and Indonesia’s Alobi Wildlife Rescue Center knew better. They’d been looking into the loris’ gigantic glassy eyes for about a decade, as Alobi workers had been spotting the loris since about 2015. As researchers assumed these slow-footed creatures had been lost to time, they’d actually been hanging out in backyards ...

This Is the Only Horror Movie to Ever Win Best Picture at the Academy Awards

Image
Horror movies have never gotten much love at the Academy Awards. And even when they do get some attention, it’s rarely in the Best Picture category. To date, only nine films in the genre have been nominated for the highly coveted award: The Exorcist , Jaws , The Silence of the Lambs , The Sixth Sense , Black Swan , Get Out , The Substance , the 2025 version of Frankenstein , and Sinners . To make matters worse, just one of those actually went home with the Oscar. The lone winner in question was The Silence of the Lambs , which pulled off another extremely rare feat at the 1992 Academy Awards: it swept the so-called “Big Five” categories. For the record, that includes Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay. That evening, the Jodie Foster-Anthony Hopkins classic became the third film in history to accomplish that. It Happened One Night and One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest had done so previously (in 1935 and 1976, respectively). The Osc...
