| | | A year ago, Affleck was an internet punchline. This week, he's on J.Lo's yacht. There's an important lesson here for all of us. | | If you have trouble reading this message, view it in a browser. | | | | |  | | | | I Gotta Say, I'm Just Super Happy For Ben Affleck | | | | "For a while there, it felt like the only things Anyone Online wanted to talk about, in regard to Affleck, were his milky and plentiful iced Dunkins, his offensively audacious back tattoo, or his long fall from those late '90s, early 2000s glory days," writes Deputy Editor Ben Boskovich. "The paparazzi seemed to only catch him at his most exhausted. And everyone loved it. Affleck had become much more of an internet punch line than an actor. So to watch him thrive over the past few weeks has been a joy. He's back with his ex! And while that isn't usually a sign of progress, Affleck's ex is Jennifer Lopez, which puts him back in the glass-half-full corner of the internet. I love to see it; you love to see it."

It made sense at the time, seeing as specializing in slim-fit chinos is how the entire enterprise got its start. But nowadays, you're just as likely to encounter devotees of its travel-friendly suits or boldly printed shirts as folks who swear by the cut of its trousers. In fact, you might be more likely to find fans of those shirts—specifically the short-sleeve, button-front Riviera style, which has become something of a signature over the years. And whether you're a longtime wearer or a soon-to-be convert, we've got good news: Bonobos has marked down a staggering number of Riviera shirts, some to just over 50 percent off.

For what felt like an interminably long time there, a hush had fallen over life. 2020, man. Now, we're cranking the vibiest of playlists way the hell up. We're funneling the viral hits straight into our ears, hoping that endorphin rush will get us through another workday. We're pregaming and picnicking and partying, drowning out mopey thoughts—or at least trying to—with any song that's over 110 beats per minute. If 2021 has a soundtrack, its theme could be described as "wild abandonment." So we need portable speakers that are "wild abandonment"-proof. In other words, waterproof. Of those, there are many.

Vans joined forces with Metallica on some rockin' kicks. Levi's also went the music route, but with the Grateful Dead instead. Converse reimagined its iconic Chuck 70 with Rick Owens. And Adidas built something with Lego. Some are strange pairings, others are expected, but all, unlike my nearish-to-death experience, are pretty amazing. Cop them all now why they're still around.

It takes time, accoutrements, and the risk of blood. If that doesn't sound like fun to you, but you're itching to get rid of your neck beard (please), allow us to introduce you to the world of electric razors. Electric razors get the job done without the need for stuff like shaving cream and bandaids. Most electric shavers can be used on dry skin and deliver a close shave in a fraction of the time (perfect for even the laziest among us). And an electric razor is a godsend if you struggle with ingrown hairs - they cut close, but not so close that hairs easily get caught in skin. These days, electric razors can even do more than just shave your face - some can go literally anywhere you have hair. So, what are you waiting for? Cop one of these electric razors and tell that lockdown beard it's days are numbered.

Pierce. "Hand to god, I don't. What kind of faith are you keeping? What principle are you defending with your last functioning alveoli? I know liberals are supposed to be the ones who tailor their whole lives around their ideology, but there is no political principle I hold that I'm willing to trade adherence to it for breathing."
