Make Your Next Work Bag a Briefcase (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve worked from home since 2018 and have plenty of backpacks to carry my stuff when I need to leave the house. But living in a state with brutally hot summers means that if I wear a backpack, I risk arriving drenched in sweat — not so great if you’re headed to an important meeting (or even just to a coffee shop to get some writing done). I’ve always avoided briefcases based on the assumption that their formal aesthetic would clash with my relaxed wardrobe — I feel way more at home in a pair of
On My Mind: The Pens and Planners That Helped Me Stop Doomscrolling (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve been spending a lot less time on my phone lately. I haven’t ditched my smartphone for a more minimalist option, nor do I Brick my phone every night before bed. Instead, I’ve finally forced myself to dive into hobbies that require me to be off my phone for more than a few minutes. Much of the time I used to spend doomscrolling now goes to kickboxing, singing, and the occasional stand-up open mic.

Finally, a Phone Grip That Doesn’t Suck (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Although I welcome any opportunity to reduce the strain that holding my phone puts on my pinkie, I’ve never been able to commit to keeping a grip on my phone.

Read excerpt
Apple’s fall event looked a bit different this year. It was the first to be run by Apple’s new CEO, John Ternus, and the first to not include a regular iPhone in its announcements — the iPhone 18’s reveal is rumored to be coming next spring. The focus here was on high-end products: the new iPhone 18 Pro, the latest iterations of the Apple Watch and Apple Watch Ultra, revised AirPods, and … one more thing. Most notably, Apple announced its first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo. As rumors indicated
These (Almost) Screenless Cameras Will Keep You Off Your Phone (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve never quite been able to ditch my smartphone for the doomscroll-free life. No matter how many apps I delete (and I depend on a lot of them to test products for the Strategist), I still find myself picking up my phone anyway. I noticed I frequently use my phone to take a picture, then get distracted with checking my notifications and doing a quick tap-through of my friends’ Stories. Could the camera be the problem? Then I heard from three friends about the Camp Snap and remembered this piece
