    Allow Mike Myers’ Cat in the Hat costume to stalk your nightmares.

    Shout out to subscriber Only Forward for sharing this on our post looking for your favorite bad movies. Propstore is auctioning off the original costume worn for the 2003 film, which is pretty terrifying in its own right. But somehow the empty suit is even more horrifying.

    Apple is considering a screen-free wearable.

    With the success of Whoop and other screen-free fitness bands like the Fitbit Air, Polar Loop, and Helio Strap, it’s not a surprise that the company is weighing its options. But nothing is set in stone yet. According to Mark Gurman:

    The company is considering new devices with no displays, as well as different types of screens and various sizes. While unlikely to hit the market, round screens have even been considered. I’m told the work also includes potentially adding premium models beyond the Ultra and Hermès variants. On the lower end, Apple is considering more affordable concepts besides the current SE model.

    It’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years since Chris Gethard’s dumpster episode.

    The original episode featuring Paul Scheer and Jason Mantzoukas is one of the funniest things to ever grace a television screen. If you’ve never seen it, stop everything and watch it on YouTube now. There’s even a bonus, extremely spoilery bonus cut that’s fun as well. For the 10th anniversary, Gethard got the band back together, and it’s a blast.

    Don’t panic film nerds, but Letterboxd is down.

    Users have been unable to log in to their accounts for a few hours, simply receiving a message that reads “An error occurred. Please try again later.” But now the whole site is refusing to load for many. The company posted on Instagram that it’s working to resolve the issue.

    Brand your products, not your customers.

    Two people have filed a class action suit against Mercedes-AMG, claiming that a raised metal logo on the seats of certain models literally brands them on hot days. According to the Associated Press:

    Lahigani, a Los Angeles resident, had leased a new 2026 Mercedes-AMG E-Class vehicle from an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership in Los Angeles, according to the suit. He reported receiving second-degree burns on his back on May 31, after entering his vehicle wearing a tank top. A board-certified dermatologist subsequently documented first- and second-degree burns, describing the injury as “AMG inscribed.”

    What’s your favorite bad movie?

    A couple of weeks ago, I admitted to you all that I love bad movies. Don’t get me wrong — I love arthouse films and critically acclaimed blockbusters, but some of the most fun I have had watching a movie has been introducing my siblings to Troll 2 and sharing Fateful Findings with friends over Zoom during the pandemic. So I want to know: what’s your favorite so-bad-it’s-good movie that I need to check out?

    Maybe don’t watch this clip of Mario Kart 64 in VR if you’ve got a weak stomach.

    It’s rare that a video alone can make me motion sick, but yikes. This mod from RaYRoD TV puts you in the driver’s seat and is free to download. RaYRod has already put together similar mods for Star Fox 64, Sonic Robo Blast 2, and more. But something tells me this is the one most likely to make you lose your lunch.
