A pack of food-themed bandages, so when you nick yourself shaving or get a nasty paper cut, you'll be able to cope with a giggle. A phone umbrella you won't know how you've survived the entire summer without. It suctions to the back of your device and shades the screen so you can happily text your mom about your date from last night or devour the latest beach read everyone on BookTok has been raving about. A realistic "Things I'll Cancel Later" undated daily planner for the optimistic homebody who makes a ton of plans for themselves, then suddenly has "a headache" when said activity comes along. No judgment here, my friend. A 30.4 fl. ounce bottle of Monday Cleanse Body Wash filled with grapefruit extract, coconut and avocado oils, shea butter, and hyaluronic acid that'll help both moisturize and clean your skin.

Unless that chef is, of course, a vampire. They might not find it quite as hilarious — but let them know it can crush nuts up, too! A bee-proof and drip-free copper hummingbird feeder that'll have you whisper-singing "My nectar brings all the birds to the yaaaaard" while quietly admiring the gorgeous new feathered friends frequenting the new addition to your outdoor space. A trendy textured bag you can throw over your shoulder and feel like a fashionista, even though 1. It's filled with things like a dried-up lip balm, and sweat blotting wipes, and 2. It costs less than 30 bucks. Reviewers say it looks just like the Clare V. Petit Moyen bag (which retails for $385, in comparison). A set of mushroom bookmarks that'll both save your spot in your book while also making you feel like you've finally achieved your cottagecore dreams. I can totally see using these in a big ol' science textbook during the school year to mark off different chapters with whimsical flair. A box of flash-frozen coffee pods you can use to whip up a delicious caffeinated bev faster than you can say "I need coffee." All you have to do is defrost and pour over milk and ice for a delectable latte or pour hot water over the frozen pod for a life-changing hot coffee. Plus, the coffee itself is made from recognizable bean brands you likely already love, like Counter Culture, Onyx, and Joe Coffee! A set of cat-shaped double-sided sponges because why not turn one of your most hated tasks (scrubbing, well, anything) into an adorable experience that'll encourage you to do it *meow* instead of later? Glitter-infused highlighters, so the next time you get the urge to annotate your already worn-down copy of Pride and Prejudice, you can do so with the kind of flair Jane Austen deserves. You better believe I'm reserving shimmery red for Mr. Darcy. A puppy night-light that'll be the paw-fect companion to your need to pee about three times every night, despite cutting yourself off from drinking water at least an hour before climbing into bed. Sigh, such is life. Anyways, it has a lovely glow to it *and* has different color settings so you can customize it exactly to your up-in-the-middle-of-the-night liking. A set of Disney Princess–themed playing cards to bring some magic to your daily game of Solitaire. The best part? You won't know whether your deck will be *pink* or *blue* a la Sleeping Beauty's gown in the film until it arrives on your doorstep! And a Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse pumpkin throw pillow that'll look so gourd-geous on your couch, your partner won't even care when you display them in the midst of summer instead of holding out until the *Ber* months.

How a hilarious Mike Francesa call united 2 Giants teams for a perfect sketch
Do the San Francisco Giants and New York Giants ever say hi or go out to dinner or something? Are there ever any interactions? Do they reach out? That is something that Mike Francesca was asked by Dan from Warwick on WFAN's The Mike Francesca Show in March 2015. The caller wanted to know if the MLB team and the NFL team ever hung out, which was something that completely befuddled Francesca. It was hard for Francesca to understand the connection between the two franchises that share a name, except that the San Francisco Giants also used to play in New York before moving to the West Coast. Here is how Francesca responded over a decade ago: "They have nothing to do with each other. There is no connection. They have different ownership. There is no connection between the two teams. There is no connection in any way between the two teams. They have no relationship. Do you think because they're Giants they're like brothers or something? That might be the weirdest question I've got in a long time." As he thought about it, though, he accidentally created a beautiful image for his listeners. Here is how he continued his response: "Yes, as a matter of fact, they have the Giant picnic. They hold it over in Totowa [New Jersey] I think it is. And then they have the Giant relay race and the Giant raffle and then they all get together for the Giant breakfast the next morning and then they got their separate ways. That is true. It is a July weekend every year when it happens. The Rangers in Texas and the New York Rangers have the same thing. They meet usually in Abilene. They have that in August every year. [Henrik] Lundqvist is particularly close to Yu Darvish, as a matter of fact. There is a kinship there between the two of them." Not long after, fans saw cartoon version of the call in a Mike-i-Mation. Now, 10 years later, we finally got an answer to the question thanks to some help from The Eli Manning Show. For a comedy sketch, we saw Francesca walking through a hallway and into a room where a uniformed Manning was hanging out with San Francisco pitcher Logan Webb and third baseman Matt Chapman. Francesca delivered an excellent line read, noting that "they really do get together" upon seeing the worlds collide. They joke about having a "Giants-Giants BBQ" and just calling it a Giants BBQ. The annual @SFGiants and @Giants meetup… kind of a b̶i̶g̶ Giant deal. Manning shared a behind-the-scenes clip on his social media where he provided more details. He described it as a "yearly tradition" when the San Francisco Giants are in town to play the New York Mets. He called it a "great" tradition for the crew. Bravo to everyone on brilliant execution on this sketch.

Mac Miller Posthumously Reaches A Milestone Thanks To One Of His Earliest Mixtapes
In the years since his death in 2018, many of Mac Miller's earliest projects have taken on new meaning. Several of his mixtapes have been re-released on various formats, and fans of the late hip-hop musician have shown their respect by not only streaming his collections, but purchasing them, especially on vinyl. One of Miller's decade-plus-old projects appears on several charts in the United Kingdom this week, and it helps him posthumously reach a notable milestone. I Love Life, Thank You Debuts on Multiple Charts I Love Life, Thank You launches on three rankings in the U.K. this frame, reaching all of them for the first time. The set opens at No. 36 on the Official Vinyl Albums chart and at No. 92 on the Official Physical Albums tally. Most impressively, I Love Life, Thank You starts its time on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Albums chart at No. 10. Mac Miller's Tenth Top 10 Album Miller earns his tenth top 10 hit on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Albums chart. Throughout his career — including the years following his unexpected death due to a drug overdose — the rapper has sent a dozen titles to the genre-specific list, with only two missing the highest tier. Among Miller's 10 top 10s on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Albums ranking is just a sole No. 1. He didn't reach the summit until January of this year, when Balloonerism, his most recent posthumous release, debuted in first place. Previously, several studio efforts by the talented musician — including Circles, Faces, and Watching Movies with the Sound Off — missed the throne by just one spot. Mac Miller's Mixtape is More Than a Decade Old Miller released I Love Life, Thank You in October 2011, when he was still relatively unknown. His sixth mixtape arrived about a month before his debut album, Blue Slide Park, which helped him break out as one of the most exciting new names in hip-hop. I Love Life, Thank You was recently issued on vinyl in several colors, and purchases of the collectible help it debut on charts in a number of countries where Miller's fanbase remains eager for anything with his name on it.
