That moment when science might've gone too far.
It's nearly here!
The new Pokémon Go! Plus wearable is for sale Sept. 16th and though it's currently sold out on Amazon.com, you can keep an eye on it's availability here.
As for how it works,
At $35.99, the new wearable is cheaper than a new Apple watch and compatible with both Android and iOS devices. In the package, you should get both the device and an initial wrist strap, but you can also accessorize your Go Plus with Shield Skins and even a cool Power Bank to make your hunts longer.
Once it's released there should be a TON of third-party sites selling skins, alternative wrist straps, and accessories for it. From the looks of the pretty basic design, you can also probably pretty easily DIY your own wrist strap.
You can also just look super cool hanging it out of your shirt pocket--sans accessories--too:
So get out there and catch some Pokémon! Happy Hunting!

Well, we'll never know it if it was going to be a good morning or not because we woke up to Good Morning America greeting us in the worst way possible.
Trying to share some Garfield-esque camaraderie about Mondays, GMA missed the fact that in the gif, little Simba is nuzzling up against his dead father, not trying to go back to sleep or whatever.
Devastatingly, before the tweet was removed, 98 people retweeted it, sadly saying that they felt similar this morning. We wish you the best.
This was just another in a long line of social media gaffes, representative of the times. My current favorite was the Spaghetti O's Pearl Harbor commemorative tweet from a few years ago:
Nothing says 'Remember the fallen in an invasive attack on American soil" like Spaghetti O's.
If only though, right? The humorous video put together by Bethesda is appreciated nonetheless. I don't know about you guys, but I could so go for having one of these to navigate the everyday trivialities of life.
What a time to be alive...via The Seattle Times:
A few days after Microsoft released Windows 10 to the public last year, Teri Goldstein’s computer started trying to download and install the new operating system.
The update, which she says she didn’t authorize, failed. Instead, the computer she uses to run her Sausalito, Calif., travel-agency business slowed to a crawl. It would crash, she says, and be unusable for days at a time.
“I had never heard of Windows 10,” Goldstein said. “Nobody ever asked me if I wanted to update.”
When outreach to Microsoft’s customer support didn’t fix the issue, Goldstein took the software giant to court, seeking compensation for lost wages and the cost of a new computer.
Fancy things require over-the-top, bougie care instructions, apparently. At least for the Apple Card anyway.
Apple published instructions for keeping your Apple credit card lookin' shiny the other day and people couldn't help but notice how ridiculous some of the steps are. No leather, denim, or loose change can come in contact with your card if you want to keep it from getting discolored.
Got it, soooo just never have it touch anything then...?
We're willing to bet that every once in a while, Bill Gates gets out of bed in the morning and has an "Oh God what have I done" kind of moment, regarding his contributions to technology. These memes poke fun at that sentiment, and more specifically they roast the totally moronic content that people on the internet (for some reason) find humorous in 2020.
If you're in need of more dank content, we've rounded up last week's best dank memes here!
