[apple gift card]( But first: [an actually good grad gift]( ---------------------------------------------------------------
[Update location]( or [View forecast]( EDITORâS NOTE Happy Sunday. Thanks to â[April theory](,â Iâm finally tackling all the things I said Iâd do in January, which includes spiffing up my apartment. Particularly now that Iâve gotten some inspo from these incredibly creative [150-square-foot homes](. Another brilliant idea? No, not â[quarter-life-crisis marathons](â â but this womanâs perfectly organized [tackle box turned snack box]( (aka, a â[snackle box](â). I might have to make one for my next park hang, along with a [gummy bear cocktail]( and these [Oreo sâmores](. But I think Iâll pass on Chinotto soda, even if it is allegedly â[grown-up Diet Coke](.â Only Diet Coke is Diet Coke. â Melissa Goldberg / Senior Editor / Washington, DC [Deeply important information] ⨠Fly to Disney and back in one day: [Masochism or one-and-done genius](? ð Another week, another early-aughts fashion comeback. This time, we regret to inform you, [itâs capri pants]( â though, theyâre supposedly âmore elevated than ever.â ð Just in case [Drakeâs $400,000 bed]( wasnât bonkers enough, let us introduce you to [the $1 million model](. ð Forget photo booths and branded merch â what your wedding apparently needs is [an 8-foot-tall Transformer-ish thing thatâll dance the night away](. Well, that and â[a villainous cape](.â ð In things the internet discovered this week: [Caitlin Clarkâs boyfriend](â¦who sheâs been dating for a year. Weâve got to say, [the reactions are pretty good](. [I canât look away.] The same day Mark Zuckerberg announced Meta would be pushing â or, letâs be real, forcing â [its AI chatbot]( on millions, if not billions, of users worldwide, [Zuck also debuted a new look](. And boy, was it a look. Yes, there was his [trademark expensive T-shirt](, albeit in a new color. But there was also the hair: longer, looser curls. And, most notably, the silver chain necklace. Itâs almost like he wore it to distract us from what he was saying, except apparently itâs one of many Zuck is testing before designing his own â[long-term chain](.â Some quarters of the internet were very excited about the makeover (the words âDADDY MARKâ were used). And that was before a truly scroll-stopping [photoshopped beard]( elicited Gwyneth Paltrowâs [Chris Martin comment](. For those just tuning in, Fashion-Forward Zuck has been in the works. Remember [the âYellowstoneâ-esque shearling coat]( Zuck sported while chowing down at McDonaldâs? The [ribbed knit cardigan]( he wore for date night? Or [the black, dragonfly embroidered Alexander McQueen suit](? Not to mention the time Zuck [corrected a journalist]( who wrongly identified his sweater as [Silicone Valley fave Loro Piana](. (It was actually Buck Mason, which Zuck noted was âalso fancy.â) And Mr. Zuckerberg is not the only tech titan whoâs [revamped their wardrobe of late](, swapping out the Genius Boy Uniform Hoodie for more elevated, âquiet luxuryâ looks. Which begs the question: What stylist is responsible for these Valley glow-ups? According to [a Meta spokesperson](, âMark mostly buys clothes he finds on Instagram.â [Need something to watch.] â[Challengers](â reached must-see status as soon as Zendaya served up that [glittery, tennis-themed Loewe gown]( for the filmâs Australian premiere â the start of a month-long method dressing marathon. (To see all her ace tenniscore looks since, [click here](.) But this springâs iteration of the stylish tennis movie has other things going for it, starting with the plot. As suggested in [the super spicy trailer](, the drama follows Tashi Duncan (Zendaya), a teen tennis prodigy turned coach, who gets caught up in the games â literal and figurative â between two male players (Mike Faist and Josh OâConnor). Factor in direction by Luca Guadagnino (of âCall Me by Your Nameâ fame), and no wonder itâs being called â[the sexiest movie of the year](.â [Will an energizing hobby fix my life by tomorrow?] [Energizing hobby](? Sounds exhausting. But if youâre [chronically busy](, chronically scrolling, chronically bed rotting, or somewhere in between (so, everyone), you could apparently benefit from one. Thatâs because âenergizing hobbiesâ â which, full disclosure, sound a lot like traditional hobbies â activate a flow state that âleaves no room for stress or worry,â according to one clinical psychologist. Thatâs in addition to potentially boosting dopamine (letâs just say thereâsâ¦not a ton of science on this), making us feel more connected, improving sleep, and adding growth or fulfillment thatâs not tied to work. Of course, as anyone who went through a baking, crocheting, or bird-watching phase will tell you: Finding a hobby that sticks is hard. But thankfully, âenergizing hobbiesâ has [millions of search results on TikTok]( â meaning, thereâs no shortage of ideas. [Wait, these are actually cute.] [Dr. Schollâs Womenâs Time Off Max Lace Up Sneaker]( Once upon a time, Dr. Schollâs was not known for trendy footwear, but we are in the age of the comeback brand, and regardless, these are great. Theyâre the platform version of the [TikTok-famous Time Off sneakers]( (again, Dr. Schollâs on TikTok, who knew), and the added height gives them a little edge without getting ridiculous. Obviously, theyâre also very comfortable, with a squishy, bouncy sole that offers support when youâre walking long distances. One of our editors likes to wear them to work, pop home, change into a dress, then wear them out to dinner. [No notes]( [help, what do the kids want for graduation these days? apple gift card]( You canât go wrong with a music, gaming, or streaming subscription so they can finally enjoy content with an account thatâs got their own name on it. Prefer something you can wrap up? A really good pair of headphones is always a winner, or, if youâre feeling generous, a new computer. Better yet, give them [Apple Gift Card]( so they can choose from all of the above â and [so much more](. Whether you send it in an email or gift it in person, theyâll love deciding how to use it.
