Yet another paradox stemming from the fact that so many of us are almost permanently attached to our screens is that a lot of the population probably does more reading than we ever did before. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to put down our phones and pick up a book. That…
I visited one of my dearest friends at the weekend. While I was there, we had a deep conversation about some of the ways in which we had changed in the years since we first got to know each other. One of the main things we agreed on is how much more grateful we felt…
I went to high school in the age of smartphones. When I entered the 9th grade, I entered with a purple slide phone in my backpack. After the first three weeks of school, it became abundantly clear that I needed to get an iPhone as soon as possible; not because of the social stigma of…

Or will memes be brushed aside, cast away, and forgotten by historians? Even today, it’s difficult to pinpoint when the first internet meme occurred. Many believe it’s…
I keep seeing these extremely strange online posts that are designed to make parents catastrophize. The basic gist of it is that “once your child turns five, you’ve already spent 50% of the time you’re ever going to spend with them.” It insinuates that as your child gets older, you’re going to see them less…

It’s easy to believe the delusion that all of your buddies have similar relationships with their parents until you get in the car with their mom, and they start saying, “yes ma’am” to everything she says. Or worse, if your friend…
