After finishing my shopping, I walked out of the grocery store and headed to the spot where I'd parked my car. But it wasn't there. I wasn't the kind of person to forget where I'd parked. I knew I was in the right place ―so where was my car? I looked around, but nothing made sense. Not knowing what to do, I called my husband at home and said, "My car is missing! I can't find my car." I heard him laughing on the other end of the line. "Your car is here outside the house! You took mine today, remember?" I turned around ―and there it was. I couldn't help but laugh at myself. With a sigh of relief, I walked over to the car. Everything was fine after all.

One of the most important aspects of sustaining long-term relationships is communication. It's easy to connect with someone and then let the relationship get stuck due to a lack of followup. To keep the connection alive, make a conscious effort to stay in touch. This doesn't mean constantly reaching out with requests or updates but rather maintaining a friendly and consistent line of communication. A simple message to check in or share something of value can go a long way in reinforcing your relationship. For example, if you come across an article or resource that you think might interest a connection, share it with them, even if you haven't spoken in a while. This shows that you're thinking of them and are invested in maintaining the relationship.

Currently, urban regeneration projects in degraded areas have been promoted as improving the wellbeing of residents and solving environmental injustice problems. However, such environmental improvements in ethnic communities and/or lowincome households can create an urban green space paradox. The creation of new, highquality green spaces can increase attractiveness, making these neighbourhood more desirable. By contrast, the cost of housing can rise, and residents may not be able to afford the rent. This results in the exclusion or displacement of the poor neighbourhood's residents, who were intended to benefit from the ecosystem services provided by the new green space. In turn, the residents may only be able to afford to live in a similar degraded neighbourhood to the one they left, with low access to green infrastructure.

The above graph shows the percentages of U.K. consumers who preferred purchasing clothes from sustainable brands by age and gender in 2020. In each of the five age groups, the percentage of women who preferred purchasing clothes from sustainable brands was over 5%. The 25-34 and 35-44 age groups had the highest percentage of men who preferred purchasing clothes from sustainable brands. The percentage point gap between men and women who preferred purchasing clothes from sustainable brands in the 25-34 age group was larger than that in the 18-24 age group. The percentage of men who preferred purchasing clothes from sustainable brands in the 55 and up age group was 4%, which was the lowest among the five age groups.

Dalip Singh Saund was an Indianborn American politician. After graduating from the University of Punjab in India, he moved to the U.S. to attend graduate school. He earned his doctoral degree at the University of California in 1924 but could not get a job because of his nationality. The next year, he began farming in Imperial Valley, but he was not able to buy land without U.S. citizenship. Dalip developed an interest in politics and he often spoke out on Indian and political topics. He went to Washington, D.C. and promoted a bill that would allow Indians to become U.S. citizens. The bill was passed in 1946, and three years later Dalip received U.S. citizenship. He later became the first Asian to be elected to the U.S. Congress.

Human beings have evolved to make the most of the resources available to them in ways that are subtle and complicated. When we change our diets, especially when we do so quickly, we are effectively conducting huge experiments in nutrition. We ought to have more humility. Nutritional science is still young and there is so much we do not know. If we have eaten certain foods in certain ways for millennia, we should assume until it is proven otherwise that there is probably a good reason why. Traditional foods that don't fit neatly on the contemporary dietary food plate should generally be chosen over highly processed ones that do. We should assume that traditionally made fatty blood sausages are preferable to lean, factorymade salamis; that spoonfuls of honey are superior to sprinkles of sweeteners. Witnessing how poorly traditional societies are faring as they undergo a nutrition transition should make those who have already completed it question whether their diets have moved too far.

Social media serves as an important context to facilitate autobiographical remembering. Personal events posted on social media platforms are better remembered and less forgotten than those not posted, independent of the characteristics of the events. This may be because sharing memories online allows individuals to rehearse and make sense of what happened, thus facilitating longterm memory retention. Online feedback such as comments and likes as well as technological features such as algorithms and periodic reminders can further serve as memory cues for the posted event details. As a result, event details shared on social media are likely stabilized and remembered over time, whereas those not shared may become inaccessible or forgotten.

Humans are not the most social animal. Ants, bees, and termites put humanity to shame on many metrics of sociality. A wide variety of relatives live together with perfectly harmonious behavior and collectively care for their young. But while insect colonies are impressively social places, it's not our kind of social life. Bees always build hexagonal hives, ants march in lines, and termites move in zigzag formations. These patterns recur redictably because they are tightly programmed genetically and propelled pheromonally. We humans are more free, less tightly programmed genetically, so our social patterns can be more diverse and dynamic. Every group dances a slightly different dance, and these choreographies change across generations. We still think and act in ways that are in harmony with others around us, but it is through patterns that are more shaped by nurture, not just nature.

When billionaire James Walker was once asked by a journalist, "Is there anyone richer than you?", he replied, "Yes, there is one young man I'll never forget." He told the story of when he first met David at a New York airport. Years ago, James was broke and stuck at the airport, killing time reading newspaper headlines at the newsstand. One headline caught his eye, but he had no money to buy the paper. Just then, David, working at the newsstand noticed James. He asked, "Would you like to buy this, sir?" But, James hesitated, saying he had no money. David smiled and said, "Me, too. But I have enough for this. Take it as a gift." Three months later, James, still broke, met him at the newsstand once more. Again, David gave him a newspaper without expecting anything in return. Years passed and James became a wealthy businessman, but he never forgot the young man he had met at the airport. He found David running a small bookstore and visited him there. He introduced himself, saying, "David, you helped me twice when you had almost nothing. I want to give you anything you wish." He looked at him and said, "You can't truly compensate me." James asked, "Why not?" David replied, "Because I gave to you when I had almost nothing. You're offering me something now that you have everything. That's just generosity at convenience. So, I can't accept your offer." James realized that money doesn't make someone rich. Remembering that moment, he said to the journalist, "It's the willingness to give even when you have very little that makes you wealthy. And so, David is the richest person I have ever met."
