The Origin of the Video Game Easter Egg
Artists sign their artwork. Writers get their name featured prominently on the front cover of a book. So why should video games be any different? Warren Robinett designed the Atari 2600 game Adventure, which sold over 1 million copies, and also had one of the earliest easter eggs.

Dunkin' Paradise by Gronk and Big Papi
Last year, Rob Gronkowski and David Ortiz hit us with a coffee-flavored anthem. The duo is back and taking us to a Dunkin' Paradise with a new summer jam. The song is unfortunately catchy and will probably have you humming it while you're sipping on an iced coffee all day.

Salt & Stone Natural Skincare Collection
Salt & Stone occupies the increasingly rare space where performance body care and luxury fragrance genuinely overlap. Founded in Los Angeles by former professional snowboarder Nima Jalali, the brand was born from years spent battling sun, wind, cold, and altitude, resulting in a collection of body-care essentials designed to work as hard as they smell good. Its formulas combine naturally derived actives from the sea and mountains with sophisticated, gender-neutral scent profiles that extend across deodorants, body washes, lotions, oils, creams, and mists, creating a layered ritual rather than a collection of standalone products. Signature fragrances like Santal & Vetiver, Bergamot & Hinoki, and Black Rose & Oud feel more akin to niche perfumery than traditional grooming products, while ingredients such as niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, seaweed extracts, spirulina, and prebiotics keep the focus firmly on skin health. The result is a brand that treats daily body care less like maintenance and more like a sensory ritual built for people who demand equal parts wellness, performance, and scent.

From The Simpsons and Dr. Who to every Pixar film ever, A113 can be found hidden somewhere in a frame. But what does it mean? New York Magazine finds out.
Bonus Star Wars Auditions
When a J.J. Abrams-directed Star Wars installment is in the works, all of Hollywood shows up to audition. Or at least SNL cast members impersonating Hollywood actors. Earlier this year, they spoofed screen tests for Sofia Vergara, Emma Stone, David Beckham, and Jon Hamm. This bonus footage shows some auditions that were left out, including Jennifer Lawrence, Shia LaBeouf, and the real Matthew McConaughey.
