“You’re being managed on Barbie” was a snarky text I received last night, “it’s at least $130M.” The point of that is the projections out there for the Greta Gerwig directed feature take of the Mattel doll are indeed wild. Rivals were spotting $90M-$125M; Warners asserting $75M. Today, to support the crazy fever of moviegoing we’re about to witness this weekend, the BoxOffice Company is reporting that Barbie is outpacing all other films this year since Avatar: The Way of Water. You’ll remember that James Cameron directed sequel debuted to $134M. The BoxOffice Company powers Google, IMDB, Bing, TikTok, Apple…
WASHINGTON — The European Space Agency is in the final stages of performing an “assisted reentry” of an Earth science spacecraft, an effort that will attempt to bring the satellite down over the ocean in a little more than a week. A series of maneuvers will lower the perigee of the Aeolus spacecraft to enable a reentry, projected over the Atlantic Ocean, on July 28. The maneuvers are intended to minimize any chance that debris from the spacecraft that survives reentry would land in populated areas. The first set of maneuvers is scheduled for July 24 and will lower the…

Like many high schoolers in the early to mid-2000s, Telsha Anderson-Boone spent a lot of time scrolling through Tumblr. A fashion obsessive—now 30, she owns and operates her own store, called T.A., in New York—she saved any image that piqued her interest to a folder on her computer called “Style.”She didn’t realize it at the time, but many of the looks she liked had something in common: They were all designed by Phoebe Philo, the then-creative director of Celine (the brand was styled “Céline” during her tenure, but has since rebranded sans the accent). Later, Anderson-Boone changed the folder name…
When you watch a series for so long, there usually comes a point where things grow stale and get predictable. Mayans M.C. was never one of those shows. Launching years after the conclusion of Sons of Anarchy meant there were certain expectations, and the series successfully carved out its own identity to deliver one of the most brutal shows on TV. It all ended with Mayans M.C. Season 5 Episode 10, which I’m surprised to say was a near-perfect series finale. It’s hard not to have certain expectations when watching a series/franchise end, but “Slow to Bleed Fair Son” covered…
Alif, the protagonist of Anjum Hasan’s latest novel History’s Angel, is borne by historical forces into an increasingly catastrophic future for India’s Muslims, even as his face remains turned toward the “reputedly more enlightened” and accommodating past. By profession and temperament a scholar of history, Alif’s perspective provides both solace and a heightened sense of tragedy amid the maelstrom of rising religious fundamentalism and exploitative capitalism that beset contemporary Indian society. Alif himself becomes targeted by these forces when a seemingly innocuous incident—where he twists the ear of a student who abused him for being a Muslim—jeopardizes his career, even…
Hydrogen and helium: An artist’s impression of the two-faced white dwarf star. (Courtesy: K Miller, Caltech/IPAC) A rapidly rotating white dwarf star that contains two opposing hemispheres – one covered by hydrogen and the other by helium – has astronomers scratching their heads over how it got that way. The star, nicknamed “Janus†after the two-faced Roman god of transition, was discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) at Palomar Observatory in the US, and one possible explanation is that it is the result of a strong but lopsided magnetic field generated by the merger of two white dwarfs.
