This is piggy backing on the Sports Illustrated question from earlier today, but I also thought about it when I pulled my National Geographic out of the mailbox a few days ago.

I've gotten NatGeo since I was a kid, it's still a great monthly read. 4-5 long form articles every month on everything from the latest in Egyptian anthropology discoveries to climate change to the history of glass. Then a potpurri of still great photography and shorter topics. It's the best.

So, do you subscribe to any print magazines? Which? Why? Isn't getting mail sorta fun?

I’m turning 33 this Summer, and after some thought about what I’d like my fiancé to gift me, I came across a tiktok about magazines we used to read in our teens. Seventeen, Elle, Teen Vogue, etc. I just loved getting physical copies in the mail when I was a teenager, so I figure it’ll be a nice way to get a little whimsy in my life lol

I’m thinking of getting a year subscription to a magazine, but I’m not sure what’s good anymore. I love great photography, especially fashion, I love a good story, and I don’t mind the horoscopes or beauty tips I think they’re fun. I like indie publications, or the “mainstream” magazines. I just want something that’s not majority advertisements, and is fun to look through and read!
