When you’re gifted a pair of socks from your grandma, dress shirts from your partner and maybe a sweater or two from your niece this holiday season, take the dang hint. It’s time to update your dated wardrobe and retire your 2012 basic button-downs. But wait a...
That little image of myself in the corner of my video calls is enough to make me never want to reach out to my loved ones again. No offense to Shrek, but I look like an ogre, and not even a hot one like Fiona. My face...
My vision has gotten rapidly worse over the last few years, and my optometrists have told me that basically, it’s because I’m on my phone all the time (not to mention I spend an average of eight hours a day in front of my computer for work)....
“I often say there’s probably five or six people alive today [that], if I wasn’t born, wouldn’t be here, so at least I did something.” That’s an impressive way to kick off your online bio, but Michael Beagelman isn’t a part-time search-and-rescue pilot, a hostage negotiator or...

Imagine for a second that you lived life without all your texts, your favorite apps and the internet in your hands. Now, stop imagining because we asked three guys who don’t have a smartphone (or at least tried not to have one) so you don’t have to...
