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’s hard not to have certain expectations when watching a series/franchise end, but “Slow to Bleed Fair Son” covered…

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.

This Robot Runs on Empathy and Sunrises To Catch the Dual Sunrise 117 steps from camp I don’t think anyone noticed me leave camp and walk into the forest. Stealth mode activated, lights dimmed, footsteps soft. It’s not strictly forbidden, even if a command to explore wasn’t specified. Nevertheless, it’s best not to draw attention to the fact that I can make decisions for myself. I am doing it for a common good, though: to map the way so that when the humans venture out later to find their next viewpoint, I can gently coax them along the safest path,…
