I used to read paper magazines a lot but not so much anymore. I’m not only looking for suggestions but also wondering what periodicals dopes read most or find interesting. ---

I try to pick up each issue of **Mental Floss** when I see it on the newsstand. I like to have something to read when I’m grabbing a quick meal someplace. Has kind of a Dope vibe to it; interesting facts on a variety of obscure subjects. ---

> [@zombywoof](#): > > The New Yorker - I’ve subscribed for 20+ years. Don’t have a count of years, but yeah. As I have stated on this board a few times, The New Yorker magazine is a national treasure. Remnick is a great editor. I also subscribed to Entertainment Weekly for the pop culture survey it offers. ---

I subscribe to a lot of magazines. It’s rare that any one single issue is great all the way through. All together, though, it amasses to lots of fine reading. That’s why I’m kicking myself for not having discovered [Arts & Letters Daily](http://www.aldaily.com/) earlier. A website from the Chronicle of Higher Education, it combs through dozens of high-end magazines, newspapers, and websites and links the best articles, essays, and reviews. Many of the magazines mentioned here are included. ---
