For the first issue of 2025, we bring you a new website and an all-nonfiction issue. Steph Auteri examines what it means to keep things and to give them away, in “Unburden Yourself.” Bill Capossere imagines what those security questions are really asking in “Please Update Your Security Questions.” And Howie Good explores the many sides of treatment for serious illness in “Death Song.”

Images for the issue are stills from The Whispering Star, a 2015 film by Sion Sono.
