"If millennials pursed and pointed our smackers in a way that resembled the bill of a duck, Gen Z-ers are adopting a pout position that looks more like the mouth of a platypus."

With the recently launched MacBook Neo -Apple's cheapest laptop yet-the company is once again betting on intrigue over explanation. It does not seem especially worried about being too vague, showing too little of the product or leaving viewers asking, 'What am I watching?' After all, that same creative risk helped make 'Silhouettes' iconic.

It was the highlight of my life and everyone loved it. It also was the worst time of my life ever. It was the worst of times, b****. The entertainment industry led me to substance abuse and alcoholism and my life falling apart. I got chewed up and spit out by Hollywood, girl.

Muscle memory refers to procedural memory, actions taken that do not require conscious thought (like riding a bike) as the motor movement has been embedded in the brain through repetition. Contextual mistakes in muscle memory—such as someone attempting to zoom in while drawing on paper versus a tablet computer or double-tapping a photograph instead of a social media feed—prove a potent starting point for Doe's latest body of work.

Kaeden Rowland has made shopping at Staples well, cool! A print specialist at one of the store's locations in upstate New York, this 22-year-old regularly posts videos of herself on the job. We watch her make cat mugs and help people strike the best poses for passport photos. She's the opposite of corporate-and that connects.

I had always remembered it saying something different, and then I went back and it said, 'When the ships of my dreams return.' I was really blown away. It's so literal. It's a way to try and make sense of probably a childhood that at some point maybe felt a bit fragmented.

The rise of TikTok and YouTube has dramatically changed the lives of content creators by turning social media into a legitimate career path rather than just a hobby. These platforms allow ordinary people to build massive audiences without traditional media connections, often through algorithm-driven exposure.

There was something different about this one, though. Something about how visible the whole act was. Something about this one coming so soon after the last one. Whatever it was, the Alex Pretti killing seemed to spark a different reaction online. Meanwhile, the counternarrative seemed to move just as quickly, and AI imagery became so ubiquitous that it might have been hard to trust your view of such a heavily documented event. How is anyone supposed to make sense of any of it?

Michael is best known to many queer audiences for his sharp, confessional style of comedy that's long centered vulnerability, self-awareness, and the tension between how we're expected to behave and how we actually function-with an occasional touch of raunchiness along the way. That sensibility carries into Attention Seeker, which approaches ADHD with humor and real-life honesty rather than with stigma.

In a dimly lit, dusty church basement, eight people meet and place their cellphones into a wooden box. Each member of the octet struggles with a dependency upon the very tool that enables us all to enjoy a level of historically unprecedented convenience - the internet. Like the characters, audiences are called to unplug and immerse themselves in the world of Studio Theatre's production of Dave Malloy's unique a capella musical, Octet.

The TikTok video starts with Jess saying: "Female-to-male trans (people) and first time moms: y'all need to get together and decide who gets to keep the FTM acronym." She can hardly keep a straight face as she continues: "In my local neighbourhood giveaway group, this woman posted 'FTM: looking for boy clothes', and to be fair, she said 'boy'. That should have been my first clue."

Dhar Mann's morality tales about Karens getting exposed, kids with disabilities finding acceptance, and the like have made him one of the internet's most popular creators. He also stands out in a mostly unscripted world for his focus on scripted content, including a recent micro-drama production deal with Fox. His videos, shot in a 125,000 square-foot Burbank production studio, regularly run 20 minutes or longer and get upward of a million views on YouTube.

There's something different about the "Heated Rivalry" online fandom from what I typically see - something strange brewing in the feeds, something I haven't seen in a long time, or maybe ever. It's easy for a topic to suddenly take over my Instagram Reels or TikTok feeds - those algorithms seem so sensitive that interacting with just a handful of posts on a topic can instantly send you down a rabbit hole.

San Diego-based Vanna Jimenez became a beauty influencer by accident. A year ago, she began posting her morning routines on TikTok and Instagram out of her tiny antique bathroom. While she initially focused on her love of 1960s fashion, her skincare and makeup - tossed artfully across a silver tray piled with her coffee, jewellery, toothpaste, books and accessories - quickly gained followers and the attention of beauty brands.

I'm listening to the latest Stephen Spencer song when suddenly I burst into tears. Was it the falsetto vocals? The swirling harmonies? No, it was the lyrics: What did Apple-the-Stoola say? He said I love you' twenty-sixty times. Spencer, you see, has a unique lyrical collaborator: his three-year-old daughter. Over the last four months, he has been posting short songs online based on her stream-of-consciousness stories.

People created headlines from one quick, simple comment I made on a podcast not long ago, it's crazy. I've got to be careful about what I say about it. But I've got a lot to say about it and I've been just trying to figure out how and when, to go about really articulating it.
