“In time, we will come to see the (partial) release of the Epstein files as the point at which reality started to collapse. This, combined with generative AI and live-streamed war, is profoundly altering our relationship with images, making it impossible to know what or who to trust. The Not The Photo Issue marks this moment, asking which pictures are still hitting hard, and why?”

It’s the year of our Lord 2025, and the world famous VICE magazine is back. To celebrate, VICE host Taji Ameen (@tajcam) flew in from his home in Puerto Rico and took it out onto the streets of New York City, where it encountered grateful people, happy people, angry people, conspiracy people, and a whole lot of rude people.

If you weren’t lucky enough to get a copy from Taji, you can buy VICE magazine at branches of @barnesandnoble or subscribe to get 4 issues a year, delivered right to your front door.

Sign up by June 2 to ensure the first of the 4 mags in your subscription is the momentous comeback issue of VICE you see Taji flaunting in the video above—The Rock Bottom Issue is the first issue of VICE magazine to go to print in nearly seven years.
