Doechii:A Cup of Butterscotch Tea10:05pm, October (something)❤️ Reporting live from my mongolian fur sofa in Topanga, fuzzy pink robes, cheap bunny slippers, and Acne Studio sweats, I have decided.Two crazy ass years have gone by (fast af) and my travels have left me, at 28, with a little more wisdom, more guts and ALOT more shoes!I spent the past few years relearning Hip-Hop as a student. Studying its language, its history, its roots. Now, I feel inspired to contribute to evolve it. To stretch it through different genres, different sounds and different parts of myself.This chapter of my life is…

Henry Rollins is best known as the frontman of the hardcore punk band Black Flag, but the musician and activist is also an actor. While he’s quite a prolific voice actor and has a few notable live-action roles, Rollins made a rare, memorable appearance in a procedural back in 2013, when he played a kidnapper and murderer in the reboot of “Hawaii Five-0.” Rollins appears in the Season 3 episode “Ho’opio (To Take Captive)”. It follows the Hawaii Five-0 Task Force as they investigate the murder of a 17-year-old girl who went missing 10…

Six people buried in a single grave in Latvia more than 1,000 years ago may have been killed in a bloody Viking raid, a new study suggests.Genetic research into the deceased — four men, a boy and a girl — reveals family connections: The boy was the son of one of the men, while another man was a third-degree relative, perhaps a first cousin or great uncle, the researchers found.The father, the relative, and one other man died from “sharp force” injuries — maybe wounds from an ax or a sword; but it’s unknown how the other three individuals died,…

Toward the end of the 2025 documentary Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe, there’s a striking overhead shot of the famed, blind Italian tenor bicycling, carefree, along the Tuscan Riviera — side by side, hand in hand, with his wife and co-manager, Veronica. It’s a poetic image, one that captures the dynamic the Bocellis have both personally and professionally. When Veronica met Andrea in her early 20s, he had just parted ways with his longtime manager (due to what Veronica calls “many misunderstandings” in the documentary) and, at his request, she jumped into the role, despite knowing little English or anything…
Prime Video Stephen King’s “Carrie” features some unforgivable antagonists, and Billy Nolan is one of them. The part of Billy, which was played by John Travolta in Brian De Palma’s 1976 movie adaptation, went to Arthur Conti for Mike Flanagan’s series adaptation of “Carrie,” a modern reimagining of this iconic story about growing pains and self-acceptance. Billy is a juvenile delinquent and the boyfriend of Chris Hargensen, a mean girl who has it in for Carrie White due to a plethora of complex reasons. The son of comedian and ventriloquist Nina Conti and grandson…
If you’ve read any of my articles for Who What Wear before (I’ve certainly written a lot of them over the last six years), you’ll know by now that my favourite fashion finds are the ones that look incredibly expensive, with price tags that say otherwise. Right now, M&S just cannot be beaten when it comes to securing such pieces. In fact, the new season fashion at the UK’s favourite high-street haunt is so good that I’m finding myself refreshing the new-in section of their website daily, in fear of missing one of their seriously designer-looking steals.Keeping such a close…
I had to iterate a bit to realize my vision, telling the AI not just to stick pig faces on the blocks but to have the blocks shaped like distorted pigs. “Each block is a pig,” I wrote, “contorted into the shape of the Tetris blocks. Make ’em look a little squished but still cute!” This resulted in a clean, playable version of Tetris, though the occasional block looked like a T-posed pig with its legs spread-eagle. The AI suggested the title Piggy Stacker, but I thought mine was better. (I’m right.)Dinner DarlingThe next game idea came courtesy of my…

Ask an Earthling, and you’ll get a predictably monochromatic answer: white or gray.But ask the four crewmembers of NASA’s Artemis II mission — who spent nearly seven hours circling the moon from just 4,000 miles (6,400 kilometers) from the lunar surface this April — and you’ll wonder if they’re talking about the same dusty satellite we can see from Earth.Yellow, brown, green, blue and tan features fan…

Earlier this month, Slayer’s seminal third studio LP – Reign in Blood – celebrated its 40th anniversary! During his recent appearance on the Loaded Radio podcast, former drummer Dave Lombardo dove into why Reign in Blood still gives him “chills” after so many years (among other things).Why Does Reign in Blood Still Give Lombardo “Chills”?The interview was uploaded to YouTube on Oct. 9, and it didn’t take long for host Scott Penfold to ask Lombardo about being 40 years on from Reign in Blood (which Penfold called “one of the greatest metal albums of all time”).“Oh, it still, it still…
AMC/YouTube “Breaking Bad” has gone down in history as one of the best TV shows of the 21st century, and a major part of that legacy is due to Bryan Cranston’s impeccable acting as Walter White. Cranston received many accolades for his performance during the show’s run — including four Emmy wins for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series — but he also ended up returning to the role of Walter/Heisenberg in various other works, including spin-off series “Better Call Saul,” comedy sketches, a spoof from one of the longest running…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write this book? I always write about underdogs. Mainly women in the middle of their lives who still haven’t quite got anything figured out just yet. I myself fit this description. Actually, it’s led to an interesting life for me and my characters. Doreen Diller is just such a woman. At 40, she’s still trying to make it as an actress when she lands a role playing a serial killer in a low-budget series. Unfortunately, the people in the small town think she’s the real thing. So does her family.…
Since the discovery of their remains in the 19th century, Neanderthals have fascinated scientists and the general public alike. Although our understanding of these ancient hominins has been transformed tremendously since then, how we have viewed this other human lineage became deeply entrenched in how we see our own species, with geopolitical events shaping the rhetoric around our ancient relatives.In his new book, “Neanderthals Among Us: The Making of a Prehistoric Human” (Oneworld Publications, 2026), historian and author Peter Sahlins examines our complicated view of Neanderthals, with this lost human lineage being viewed through the lens of cultural and political…
Kopple’s film itself has an elegiac quality to it, the rugged beauty in her setting and in the weathered faces of its working-class inhabitants often reading as testimony from a vanished world. Yet part of the reason why the years have been kind is that the film is so steeped in nostalgia to begin with. It’s a portrait of a community seeking not just rights in the present day, but the preservation of its heritage, and within the life-or-death, us-vs-them clarity of the central labour dispute is a resistance to our modern-day mythologising of the era. For all our efforts to delineate clearly between…
Nicolas Cage has spoken up about his refusal to sign a waiver to let Amazon use AI on Spider-Noir, hinting at a reason for the immensely popular show’s cancellation after just one season, while also dismissing any likelihood of future projects with the studio. During a Saturday panel on the Empire Stage at New York Comic Con, the actor told the crowd, “Amazon is a very AI-friendly company, to the tune of $50 billion invested in OpenAI,” as reported by Variety. “I didn’t sign the waiver to let him use AI on Spider-Noir. I’m probably not going to be working…
Spock is a graduate of Starfleet Academy, but before Leonard Nimoy landed his iconic role on “Star Trek,” he appeared in a 1950s TV show about the United States Military Academy that was actually filmed at West Point. “The West Point Story” was a syndicated anthology series that ran for two seasons from 1956 to 1957. Nimoy was a natural fit, having served in the army himself from 1953 to 1955 as part of the Army Special Services, the military’s entertainment branch. In one of Nimoy’s two appearances, he played Cadet Tom Kennedy, an…
There’s no denying that autumn/winter dressing requires a little more thought than the summer months. The days of simply throwing on a light cotton dress, slipping on sandals and grabbing the closest basket bag are well and truly behind us, but don’t fret. The ease of summer may be a selling point, but there’s a lot to be excited about as the cooler days settle into place.With the leaves browning and a crisp chill returning to the air, getting dressed is about to get a whole lot more interesting. The art of layering is back in business, textures are turned…

The written word is one of humanity’s most important information technologies. Without it, mathematical and scientific discoveries would be lost to history. But it can also lock ideas in place long after they’ve stopped making sense.So does writing speed up cultural change or slow it down?Russell Gray, a professor in the Department of Linguistic and Cultural Evolution at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Germany, heads a research project investigating how writing affects the way languages change. His team uses methods borrowed from evolutionary biology to trace languages through family trees — similar to the way biologists trace…

Michael Ochs Archives/Getty Images In the annals of comedy, there should be a special place reserved for Harvey Korman. For 10 seasons, he was an integral part of “The Carol Burnett Show,” acting not only as the driving comedic force in countless scenes but also as the straight man against Tim Conway’s crazy characters, which was no easy role to play. He also turned in masterful performances in multiple Mel Brooks movies, including “History of the World: Part I” and “Blazing Saddles.” But before all of that, he provided a…
