How an Italian Village Uses a Giant Mirror for Sunlight

Viganella, a small village in northern Italy, has only about 200 inhabitants.

The Trio That’s Taken Over the Media This Summer

Last summer, the whole world felt the impact of Roe v. Wade being overturned by SCOTUS. For women and allies all around, this felt like a giant blow, as if we were returning to the 1910s or worse. We got tired of having to explain to people why women needed to be able to freely make decisions on their own bodies, and tired of what feels like a century long protest in the streets.

Although I adore rom-coms, date nights, and unapologetic expressions of love, I can’t help but notice the def
