Black Mirror is going to get interactive with Season 5, multiple publications reported Monday.

Netflix will be bringing an interactive element to one episode of Black Mirror next season according to a report from Bloomberg and confirmation from The Hollywood Reporter. At this point we don’t really know how exactly the interactivity will work, but both publications reported that it will be a sort of choose-your-own-adventure thing.

Of all the shows to go the choose-your-own-adventure route first, it makes sense for Black Mirror to give it a shot, giving viewers a chance to decide how a story pans out using Netflix’s technology. Read more…

Instagram has officially named a successor to outgoing CEO Kevin Systrom. 

Adam Mosseri, who previously ran Facebook’s News Feed before moving to Instagram as VP of Product, will take over the role as Instagram’s top exec, the company announced. 

The announcement comes one week after Instagram’s cofounders unexpectedly announced their departure from Facebook, fueling rumors that there were growing tensions between Instagram’s leadership and Facebook’s. 

“We’re confident that under Adam’s leadership, Instagram will evolve and improve and we look forward to the future of the product and community,” Systrom and Instagram cofounder Mike Krieger wrote in a statement announcing the change.  Read more…

Oh no.

Kanye West took to social media on Sunday to tell everyone that he supports the messages of Donald Trump while wearing a MAGA hat. In the same tweet, he wrote that he wants to abolish the 13th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America — the one that abolished slavery.

Some iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max owners are having trouble charging their devices.

Owners across the web are complaining that some of Apple’s latest iPhones are not charging properly when plugged in, MacRumors pointed out Saturday. The problem seems to occur when users plug in their phones while they are in sleep mode and the screens are off.

YouTuber Unbox Therapy was alerted to this problem and performed a test where he plugged in a bunch of iPhone XS and XS Max devices to test whether they charge while asleep, and found that several XS and XS Max phones didn’t start charging until after he woke up the phone. Not only that, one iPhone XS Max was stuck in sleep mode while plugged in and he couldn’t take the phone out of its frozen state until he unplugged it. Read more…

The Boston Red Sox should consider signing one of their fans that got ejected from Fenway Park on Saturday.

After New York Yankees power hitter Giancarlo Stanton blasted a home run to the top of Fenway Park’s infamous Green Monster at the top of the seventh inning on Saturday, a Red Sox fan took that ball and whipped it back onto the field in protest, hitting Stanton in the arm after a hop as he rounded second base. That’s a pretty impressive feat.

While planning a visit to the United States, a British woman unwittingly answered “Yes” to an online travel application query asking if she had ever engaged in terrorist activity.

Accordingly, Mandie Stevenson’s U.S. travel application was promptly denied, reports the BBC.

“At first I thought it was a bad dream and then I realised what I had done,” Stevenson said on the BBC radio show “Mornings with Stephen Jardine.”

Stevenson had been applying for a travel application using the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Electronic System for Travel Authorization site, or ESTA, when she erred. Specifically, Stevenson was applying for a “visa waiver program,” wherein citizens of some countries can enter the U.S. without going through a more tedious visa process. Read more…

Saturday Night Live didn’t shy away from taking a few jabs at accused sexual assaulter/Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, and Kate McKinnon’s appearance as Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was no exception.

McKinnon as Ginsburg appeared alongside milquetoast Weekend Update anchor Colin Jost to drop some signature Ginsburns and bust some moves at the expense of Kavanaugh. It was hilarious. She also promised not to retire or die while the current administration was in power and even dropped a few funny self-Ginsburns about her size, strength, and age.

Also, she threatened to beat up Kavanaugh with a sock full of quarters, which you just can’t top. Read more…

Deep in the Amazon jungle, ecologist Leandro Moraes filmed a moth sucking the tears out of a sleeping antbird’s eye. 

The delicately-performed nighttime feeding is a rarely seen event, wrote Moraes in a report about the experience, entitled “Please, more tears: a case of a moth feeding on antbird tears in central Amazonia.”

The short clip depicts a moth carefully dipping its tubular mouth into the bird’s closed eye. For a brief moment, the antbird opens its eye, but doesn’t seem to notice the large insect perched on its back — nor the tube resting in its eyeball.

Everyone has a friend who knows not to run upstairs when they should be running out the front door.

I’m talking the horror movie fan in your life, who’s so similar to Randy Meeks from Scream or Marty Mikalski from Cabin in the Woods they’ll never, ever investigate a basement or deep, dark forest with you. 

This is the friend who knows “the rules” — they will tell you not to pick up the phone, not to have sex (“sex equals death”), never drink or do drugs, and never, ever, ever, under any circumstances, say “I’ll be right back.” 

You won’t be back.
