Eminem documentary Stans leaves you in no doubt, that if you're not a fan around here, you can GTFO.

While the Shady Films-produced movie does include cultural commentators, famous friends, and music journalists, the doc quite literally centers devoted fans as the primary lens through which to examine Marshall Mathers' life and cultural impact — those who've treasured every album, demo, and

TL;DR: Before buying a new car for tech perks, upgrade your current dash with this 10-inch wireless touchscreen display that supports CarPlay, Android Auto, GPS, Bluetooth, and more — for only $119.99 with free shipping.


If your current car doesn’t support CarPlay or Android Auto, don’t stress — there’s no need to trade it in just to stream Spotify or get real-time navigation.

This 10-inch Touchscreen Wireless Car Display brings modern dashboard tech to just about any vehicle, and it does it in style. For $119.99 (reg. $199.99), you’re getting a portable, full-featured upgrade that’s sleek, functional, and refreshingly easy to install.

Running on Android 12, this screen lets you download your favorite apps, stream maps through Google or Waze, and tap into real-time traffic insights, all without fumbling with your phone. And yes, it supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so you can read messages, make hands-free calls, or queue up a podcast directly from the touchscreen.

More than just flashy features, it’s also packed with smart functionality. When you shift into reverse, the screen automatically switches to your backup camera view (not included), complete with parking guidelines for safer maneuvering. Built-in Bluetooth makes it simple to connect your phone, and the integrated speaker means you don’t need to rely on your car’s stereo if you don’t want to.

Whether you’re heading out on a road trip, carpooling to school, or just trying to make your commute less chaotic, this display adds convenience and connectivity in all the right places. And as a bonus, FM transmission means you can even broadcast audio from the screen to your car’s radio, giving you the best of both worlds.

It’s an ideal gift for someone with an older car for yourself, if you’re not quite ready to commit to the expense of a new vehicle.

Big tech, small investment.

Get the 10-inch Touchscreen Wireless Car Display for $119.99 (reg. $199.99) plus free shipping for a limited time.

Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams.

Like the beating of the hideous heart in Edgar Allan Poe's story, Netflix's Wednesday continues to tick with references to the 19th century American writer.

The first season of Tim Burton's spooky series was haunted with many a nod to Poe, from the Gothic setting of Nevermore Academy (named for Poe's most famous poem, 1845's The Raven) to the highly dangerous Poe Cup in which teams were story

Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams.

It's not really a surprise that Tim Burton's Wednesday takes spooky aesthetic cues from The Addams Family — Charles Addams' New Yorker cartoons, the '60s sitcom, and the '90s movies — but it's a delight to see some deeply specific references hidden in the second season to the 1991's The Addams Family.
