Suicides Don’t Go Up During the Holidays

There’s a long-enduring idea in the media that suicide rates peak in the winter months, when days get darker earlier, stress levels seem to rise, and the so-called “holiday blues” set in. The sentiment is so prevalent that 40% of stories published by news organizations about suicide during the 2022-2023 holiday season made this claim. There’s just one problem with these stories: no such seasonal trend exists in actual suicide data. In fact, December often sees a lull in suicide numbers worldwide. Dan Romer, a research director at Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania, has spent decades chasing the origins of this myth and working to correct it. In a new report out Dec. 4, he shares the results of worldwide survey data that shows the extent of the myth and new evi...

The F***-it List: swinging, skiing, LSD and many more things to avoid doing before you die

Christ the Redeemer: I’m told Rio de Janeiro is quite the place — a World Heritage Site with bossa nova and beaches, samba and Santa Teresa, carnival and, er, crime. And then there’s Christ The Redeemer, often cited as one of the new seven modern wonders of the world. Except — it’s not that much of a wonder, is it? There’s no mystery — we know who designed it, how it was built, how much it weighs, its scale (and granted, he’s a hefty boy). It’s not especially old. It’s big, but is it beautiful? Those eyes, man. Never trust a man without pupils. Some see a work of art, I see a concrete lightning rod plonked on top of the Corcovado. People say the size is humbling, but the Statue of Liberty is two-and-a-half times its height; India’s Statue of Unity is more than six times as tall. I can be h...

Hospitals Should Be Redesigned to Improve Care

Hospitals are such important places in our lives. It's where we are born, where we go for help when we’re not well, and where we turn to when cancer, a heart attack, or major injury leaves us hanging by a thread. It’s also where our loved ones spend their time anxiously waiting for us to get better, to hear good or bad news.So then, why are hospitals such miserable places?Most hospitals are so poorly designed, you feel their negative effects the moment you walk through the front door. The unintuitive layout immediately disorients you. The stark, cold lighting and hard surfaces create a feeling of sterility. There’s no soothing music to put you at ease, just the beeping of machines and rushing of hospital staff. It always feels like something is wrong. Like the worst is about to happen—whic...

Alexa Chung, Lily James, Gwyneth Paltrow — the best unseen party pictures inside the Fashion Awards 2023

The latter was a familiar sight amongst guests, as bottles of Moët & Chandon (the awards’ official champs sponsor) really did deck the halls — from magnums right the way down to the mini Moët synonymous with the 90s supermodel set. As such, it was Moët’s table at Monday night’s Fashion Awards that was most lively: see Alexa Chung, glistening in her 16Arlington, mermaid-meets-armour gown alongside its designer Marco Capaldo. Lily James snuggled up to the pair in a Miu Miu frock, whilst award nominees Foday Dumbuya, of Labrum, and Saul Nash chatted with Harry Styles’ stylist Harry Lambert, and ES Magazine’s very own editor, Ben Cobb.  Source link

23andMe Hack Breaches 6.9 Million Users’ Info, Including Some’s Health Data

Some 6.9 million 23andMe customers had their data compromised after an anonymous hacker accessed user profiles and posted them for sale on the internet earlier this year, the company said on Monday. The compromised data included users’ ancestry information as well as, for some users, health-related information based on their genetic profiles, the company said in an email. Privacy advocates have long warned that sharing DNA with testing companies like 23andMe and Ancestry makes consumers vulnerable to the exposure of sensitive genetic information that can reveal health risks of individuals and those who are related to them.

Pioneering model Kai-Isaiah Jamal: ‘The Conservative party is trans cleansing’

They admit they are far stronger now than one year ago. “We’d done 16 covers in 18 months. I had everything; I had money, I was hot s**t, I was booked, I was busy, but I was so unhappy,” they say. When a fashion designer asked Jamal, who was standing nearly naked, if they were a boy or a girl before suggesting they were “like an Avatar” during a Paris Fashion Week casting, the model suffered a breakdown. “I didn’t feel human,” they say. The last thing they remember is going to their hotel room. Source link
