Chet Hanks reignited his feud with Eric André over the weekend in a heated confrontation at ComplexCon in Los Angeles.
Hanks, the 36-year-old son of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, previously appeared on the comedian's eponymous sketch comedy show in 2023, after which André gave a scathing account of Hanks's behavior, calling him "emotionally disturbed."
On Tuesday, Hanks shared a video on Instagram showing him approaching André at the convention. He places a hand on the comedian, who initially responds in a friendly manner, asking, "What's up?" before Hanks confronts him.
"What'd I say?" André can be heard asking during the exchange.
The video then cuts to André walking away with his security team, appearing to shout something back at Hanks. Hanks laughs with his friends before declaring: "That was a long time coming."

Is there anything prettier than a consistently uptrending stock price chart? I'm drawn to these types of charts. I've always thought a consistent uptrend is an indication of strong buying power for a stock. However, while I can tell you if a chart looks like a consistent, methodical trend, it's hard to define it using data, which is necessary to create an indicator. That's why, until now, I've never put numbers behind my theory.
I won't go into the details, but using moving averages over various time frames, I've created a ranking system for stocks with the most consistent uptrends and downtrends over the past three months. Using this ranking system, Docusign (DOCU) is one of the top uptrending stocks. That's a pretty chart, if I do say so myself. When I see a chart like this, I think, why would it stop now?
In this week's article, I'll test my theory with actual numbers and see if DOCU and other stocks like it are good bets, like my instincts have always led me to believe.
For this study, I went back to 2024 and picked the 18th of each month, which corresponds to the end of this week. I used my trend ranking system to find the 30 stocks in the strongest uptrends and the 30 in the most consistent downtrends. Then, I tracked how each group performed over the next month of trading. The table below summarizes the results.
My instincts look correct based on the average returns of the stocks. The top uptrending stocks averaged a return of 2.15% over the next month, while the most consistently downtrending stocks averaged a return of 1.57%. The other stocks averaged 1.84%, falling between the two groups.

Justin Verlander already knows when the Detroit Tigers will celebrate his career.
What he still does not know is whether he will get to finish it where he wants to finish it: standing on a Major League mound.
Verlander is expected to throw off a mound Saturday as he continues working back from left hip inflammation and a left hamstring strain, according to MLB's latest Tigers injury update. If his body responds, the 43-year-old could advance to a rehab ***** ignment and potentially pitch for Detroit before his retirement becomes official at the end of the season.
That makes Saturday considerably more important than a routine September bullpen session.
Verlander has already announced that 2026 will be his final season. Detroit has already planned the goodbye.

A leaked phone call that appears to feature Gypsy Rose Blanchard and her ex-husband, Ryan Anderson, has raised serious questions about a private conversation the former couple allegedly had while he was working at a school. The ****** ually suggestive audio appears to capture Blanchard and Anderson discussing whether he could participate in an intimate phone exchange from inside the building. Anderson has since pushed back against the speculation, insisting in a TikTok video that he "never" engaged in ****** ual activity at the school.

The audio, which has circulated on social media, begins with Anderson asking Blanchard what she is wearing, but she seemingly brushes off the question. "Oh fine, tomorrow," Anderson responds.
The former couple can then be heard giggling before Anderson appears to express concern about getting caught. "I wish; I don't want to get in trouble," he says.
Blanchard responds by suggesting he would be able to remain quiet. "If you didn't make a sound at your mom's, you're not gonna make a sound at school," she is heard saying.

TikTok user alexaabney69 frequently shares videos featuring conversations with her brother, often highlighting their sibling dynamic. A recent exchange about dating has caught viewers' attention, drawing more than 730,000 views and over 1,280 comments.
The video begins with Alexa telling her brother, "I've been thinking about it a lot, and I kind of feel like I'm ready for a real relationship and a real boyfriend."
When her brother responds with a questioning "Okay?" she asks whether he thinks she is ready, saying that she believes she is.
"Maybe you should stop talking to d—–bags, then," he replies. When Alexa says she doesn't know whether someone is a d—–bag until she starts dating them, her brother pushes back.
"Everyone knows," he says. "We all can tell except for you." He then suggests that Alexa look for something less surface-level in her next relationship. She responds that she likes the personalities of the men she has dated in the past.

For months, rumors about influencer Charli D'Amelio's relationship with her family have been circulating online, and a recent appearance on Quenlin Blackwell's "Feeding Starving Celebrities" video series seems to have added more fuel to that fire.
In the video uploaded on Sept. 5, D'Amelio, the second-most followed TikToker with close to 160 million followers, starts the episode by surprising Blackwell with a pair of sweatpants from her merch store. As they're talking about her many business ventures, Blackwell then asks her how much money she made from her merch. "Mmm, ain't that the question," D'Amelio responds as she looks into the camera and laughs as she adds, "Wouldn't I like to know."
This comes three months after People confirmed that she is no longer involved in the family's popcorn brand, Be Happy Snacks, and the publication reported that the severed ties are allegedly a result of a financial dispute between her and her parents, Marc and Heidi D'Amelio. A representative for the brand told TMZ that her decision to bow out of the family business was "a formal amicable separation from D'Amelio Brands and D'Amelio Family LLC that everyone agreed to at the time."
TMZ also reported that the separation began in March 2025 and was made official in November 2025, meaning she was out of the company for more than six months before the news broke.
USA TODAY reached out to representatives for Charli D'Amelio and her family for this story, but did not hear back.

The Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green has watched Stephen Curry's incredible journey up close, witnessing how the undersized guard developed into a global superstar and one of the greatest point guards in NBA history. However, despite spending more than a decade playing alongside Curry, Green still believes someone else deserves the ****** le of the best point guard he has ever played with.
Ernie Johnson stands as one of the most respected and beloved voices in modern sports broadcasting. He is best known as the longtime host of TNT's critically acclaimed studio program Inside the NBA. With his calm presence, sharp sense of humor, and ability to keep conversations flowing, Johnson has become an iconic figure around NBA coverage.
However, Johnson has never played a single NBA game. Despite that, Green delivered a remarkably bold ****** sment of the veteran broadcaster during the latest episode of The Draymond Green Podcast, surprisingly naming Johnson as the best point guard he has ever played with.

As President Donald Trump's unpopularity with the American public continues to be reflected in approval polls, Kelsey Grammer has a much rosier outlook, saying in a recent interview that the president will be remembered as one of the best in U.S. history.
In a recent interview with the British talk radio station LBC, the Republican "Frasier" star said Trump loved America and predicted the president will "probably" be remembered as one of the best leaders in the country's history.
"Because ****** ody really stood up for America in quite some time in the presidency," Grammer said.
Grammer, 71, also praised how he perceives Trump responds to critics.
"He says if somebody comes at him, if they come at him with hate, which they really have done, he just sends it right back at them," he said. "And I think that throws them off."

General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) reached a tentative three-year labor deal with Unifor that Canadian workers ratified on August 29 and 30, securing more than C$1 billion ($791 million) in new and previously announced investment across Ontario, covering over 4,600 workers.
GM will spend C$144 million to bring next-generation Heavy-Duty GMC Sierra production to Oshawa, adding to a previously committed C$343 million there. At St. Catharines, GM will invest C$215 million in a new transmission program starting late 2029, on top of a previously announced C$691 million for V8 engine production. GM also pledged not to immediately sell or close its CAMI plant in Ingersoll while it studies alternatives, including possible defense work if it lands a Canadian Armed Forces contract. The deal lands as Canada's auto sector faces 25% U.S. tariffs, with Trump threatening to double that to 50% on January 1, 2027, and U.S. and Canada trade talks still stalled.
General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) enters this deal from a position of financial strength. GM beat second-quarter expectations with adjusted earnings per share of $3.57 versus the $3.18 estimate and revenue of $48 billion versus the $46.99 billion forecast. The company also raised its full-year guidance for the second time this year, while adjusted automotive free cash flow reached $5 billion, up $2.2 billion year over year. That cash generation gives GM room to fund its Canadian commitments without putting significant pressure on its balance sheet.
The tariff environment has also become more favorable for GM. After the Supreme Court invalidated tariffs imposed under emergency powers, GM lowered its full-year gross tariff-cost estimate to $2.5 billion-$3.5 billion from $3 billion-$4 billion. Protecting Canadian production now could reduce the risk of costly disruptions as GM adjusts its North American manufacturing footprint and responds to changing trade policies.
The agreement also protects GM's pickup and SUV business, which generates some of the company's highest margins. CEO Mary Barra said North American demand remains strong for these vehicles, while the return of Heavy-Duty Sierra production to Oshawa will give GM additional North American capacity for a key product line. Producing more trucks within the region could also help GM reduce its exposure to cross-border tariff costs.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is set to take another step toward a Week 1 return.
ESPN's Pat McAfee on Monday reported Kittle is set to participate in team drills for the 49ers in Tuesday's practice after only participating in the individual portions of practices since being activated off the PUP list.
It isn't necessarily a surprise that Kittle is going to work out in team drills since clearing that hurdle will be paramount to the team being comfortable flying him to Australia to play in Week 1. Kittle will first have to get through the team drills without a problem, and then they'll see how his body responds to going through the closest thing he's had to live football since January.
Barring a disaster, all signs have pointed toward Kittle playing in Week 1 vs. the Los Angeles Rams in Australia. There's been optimism about it since early in the offseason and there's never been any counter reporting to indicate Kittle and the team are eyeing anything but a Week 1 return.
There's always a chance Kittle doesn't quite feel right after Tuesday's practice and the team shuts him down until they're gearing up for Week 2, but it sure seems like the 49ers and Kittle are staying on the timeline that gets him in uniform for their 2026 opener.

NOVI SAD, Serbia (AP) — Small boats stand idle on cracked ground in a shriveled side channel of the Danube River in northern Serbia, where the water has receded into a couple of shrinking ponds under pressure from extreme drought and heat. Fish circle in the shallow waters.
"This is all we have, these two little ponds that are full of juvenile fish," fisherman Dusan Jovanovic said. He said the fish are in danger because there is too little water and its temperature is over 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit).
"If they start to die, they will all die at once," Jovanovic said.
Persistent drought and scorching heat this summer have ravaged ecosystems and businesses across the region, from a lake in Slovenia and the side channel of the Danube in Serbia, to fish farms in Bosnia, the Czech Republic, Romania and Hungary.
The fish industry has been hit especially hard, with damage estimated in the millions of euros (dollars). This is adding to the already high toll caused by problems with energy and water supplies, devastated crops, losses in river traffic and trade.

The new (soon-to-be) owner of the Seattle Seahawks just got a lesson in how passionate the 12th Man can be about certain topics... especially when it comes to rivalries and historic hatred. Recently, the NFL voted unanimously to approve the sale of the Seahawks from the Paul G. Allen estate to venture capitalize Vinod Khosla and his family for a record-breaking $9.6 billion.
During his initial press conference following the approval meeting, Khosla opened up about his history of being an NFL fan... and although he was honest, he definitely shared too much. Khosla explained he came to America in the 1970's when the Pittsburgh Steelers were the reigning force in the league and admitted he was still a fan of theirs. Not just a fan, but one who still watches all the Steelers games.
Oh boy... as expected, not many 12's were all that jazzed when they heard the new owner of the Seattle Seahawks is still a Steelers fan of all things. The painful memories of Super Bowl XL are still fresh to many older fans, and to them, the Steelers are just as bad as the Rams or 49ers.
But credit where credit is due, Khosla clearly heard the criticism and took to social media to emphasize where his loyalties lie. He even issued an apology.

New Orleans Saints fans will have to wait until the regular season opener to see Tyler Shough lead the first-string offense onto the field. after Wednesday's practice at Tulane's Yulman Stadium, Saints head coach Kellen Moore said that "a lot of" first teamers won't play in Friday's preseason finale with the Dallas Cowboys.
Moore added that the first-team units on offense and defense saw 145 snaps between three joint practice sessions, which he felt was plenty of work. They were able to run different situations against different opponents' best players and learn what they needed in those controlled environments. From his point of view, putting his top talents into an exhibition game would just be an injury risk.
There's a couple of different trains of thought here. On the one hand, some coaches like to use the final preseason game as a "dress rehearsal" where they can see how their offense runs a scripted drive and their defense responds to real pressure. On the other hand, there's been a movement around the league to dial down the preseason snaps and protect their most valuable players from injury. That's an easy argument to buy when the game's result doesn't matter.
Even so, this approach will be second-guessed if the Saints start sloppy in a few weeks. Stumbling out of the gates and playing low-scoring, penalty-prone football and losing a couple of games (which is very possible between back-to-back road trips to visit the Detroit Lions and Baltimore Ravens in Weeks 1 and 2) would invite a lot of criticism for not getting the starting units onto the field in these preseason games. Clearly that's a risk Moore is comfortable taking.

Even ***** ytical fans can be overcome with emotions. The last ten days have been brutal. If we remove the opener of the Mariners series, we saw the Astros got a combined 2-6 in the span of eight days. That was against a collection of teams where they probably were hoping for a 6-2 run. They blew late leads, the offense sputtered at times, and the starting pitching continued to struggle to get through the fifth inning. Even the normally reliable Yordan Alvarez seemed to hit a snag throughout much of the run.
I hate to boil things down to simple math, but this is usually where my brain goes. There are essentially six months in a baseball season. It's obviously grossly simplified to ***** ume four weeks in a month, but we could probably add one week in there to account for the extra days. That means there are 25 weeks in a season. The last homestand accounts for slightly more than a week's worth of games. 162 divided by nine equals 18. 18 is a nice round number.
To put this in perspective for most Houston fans, 18 essentially corresponds to the number of weeks in an NFL season. So, imagine if the Texans' offense failed to show up for a particular game. I know that's not hard to imagine. Imagine if they had held a lead into the fourth quarter and squandered it. Imagine if their defense simply got torched on a particular Sunday. What would the conversation be like?
Obviously, the conversation would likely depend on when that particular loss occurred. If it occurred in a random regular season game in October it would likely be a cause for concern, but no one would be quitting on the season quite yet. If it were the opening week of the season there would be some doom and gloom, but most people would realize it was just one game in a long schedule. If it occurred in January then obviously the season would be over.
This is where we find ourselves as Astros fans. We have experienced one terrible week of baseball. They have had worse this season. It doesn't seem like it but the first road trip was an unmitigated disaster. There have been stretches at home that have looked just as awful. So, the key to sound ***** ysis is to take a step back and keep a level head about these things.

Notre Dame football officially ended its fall camp on Friday, and with that head coach Marcus Freeman spoke to the media on a variety of topics.
One of those was some of the injured potential difference makers, more specifically wide receiver Quincy Porter. He's been dealing with a recovery from an offseason knee surgery, and the hope was that he'd be ready for the start of the season. However, it looks a bit dicey right now, as Freeman said Porter is "a couple weeks out" following another procedure to help the process.
After transferring from Ohio State during this past offseason, there were high hopes that he'd hit the ground running, but Porter hasn't been on the field enough for that to happen. He'll be playing catchup when he finally gets healthy, missing valuable reps that me missed out on this spring and early during the fall. Creating chemistry with quarterback CJ Carr is part of the process, and Porter hasn't been able to do much of that since arriving in South Bend.
There's still plenty of time for him to get past this surgery and see the field this fall. Hopefully he responds well, and we see Porter on the field sooner than later.

Borussia Mönchengladbach have officially confirmed the return of ****** anese international Ko Itakura from Ajax. The 29-year-old centre-back signs a contract through 2030 after spending just one season in Amsterdam. Kicker reports that Gladbach will pay an initial €3.5m, with bonuses potentially taking the deal to €4m. Ajax paid Gladbach a base fee of €10.5m for Itakura only last summer.
Itakura made 80 competitive appearances and scored seven goals during his first three-year spell at Borussia-Park. The versatile defender established himself as a regular in central defense and also occasionally featured in defensive midfield. His single season at Ajax proved less successful. Kicker credits Itakura with 24 competitive appearances and one goal before the ****** anese international opted to return to familiar surroundings.
The timing of the transfer is hardly coincidental. Gladbach moved quickly after Nico Elvedi completed his €10m transfer to Leeds United, leaving an immediate vacancy alongside Kevin Diks in central defense.
GGFN's 2026/27 Borussia Mönchengladbach tactical preview had projected Elvedi and Diks as the first-choice pairing while noting the uncertainty surrounding the Swiss defender's future. Itakura can now step directly into the position vacated by his former defensive partner.
"We are very pleased that we have been able to sign a player who, in terms of quality and experience, corresponds exactly to the profile we were looking for following Nico Elvedi's departure," Schröder said.

A post in r/nextfuckinglevel shared video of Chinese cosplayer Dalaotian, a Douyin and TikTok creator known for hyper-realistic robot cosplay that has left viewers questioning whether she is human.
In one clip, a man asks her directly if she is real, and she responds, "I am real human," before smiling. Other clips appeared to show passersby stopping to stare, open-mouthed, as she walked through public ******* es.
Dalaotian is a 30-year-old influencer from Sichuan province, China, standing over 6 feet 3 inches tall, according to the South China Morning Post. She has amassed roughly five million followers and typically wears a metallic silver bodysuit, light blue cosmetic contact lenses, and a short bob wig styled after anime characters, occasionally shifting her aesthetic to resemble Barbie instead.
Several replies focused on her physical proportions as the key to the effect. One commenter wrote, "It's really the tiny waist that sells it I think. You just don't expect someone to have that unusually small waist compared to shoulders hips etc. The face definitely helps. She looks like Battle Angel Alita lol."
One commenter repeated an unverified claim about the cost of her transformation. They wrote, "I read in another post that she has spent about 150k in surgeries. That can't be healthy." The figure appears to be inaccurate, according to subsequent reporting.

Red Sox Get Encouraging Roman Anthony Injury Update Amid Playoff Push originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Boston's young outfielder has taken another important step toward returning to game action. The Boston Red Sox have continued to surge without Roman Anthony, but one of their most talented young players appears to be moving closer to rejoining the lineup.
Anthony has progressed to hitting against a high-velocity Trajekt pitching machine as he works his way back from a wrist injury, according to MassLive's Chris Cotillo. Red Sox manager Chad Tracy said the 22-year-old is "getting closer" to beginning a minor league rehab ******* ignment.
That is an encouraging development for a Boston club attempting to secure a postseason spot during the final stretch of the regular season. Anthony previously advanced to facing overhand pitching in the batting cage. Hitting against the Trajekt machine represents another notable test because it can replicate high-end velocity and different pitch shapes in a controlled environment.
The next major step will be sending Anthony on a rehab ******* ignment, where the Red Sox can evaluate his timing and how the wrist responds to consecutive games.

The Baltimore Ravens won't have to wait until the regular season to see how their defense responds to one of the NFL's most difficult quarterbacks to contain. Minnesota has named Kyler Murray its starting quarterback, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The decision adds another layer of intrigue to Baltimore's upcoming trip to Minnesota for two joint practices with the Vikings.
Following Saturday's preseason matchup against the Eagles at M&T Bank Stadium, the Ravens will practice against Minnesota on Aug. 19 and 20 before the teams meet in a preseason game at U.S. Bank Stadium on Aug. 22. The practice sessions could provide Baltimore's starters with their most valuable work against an opposing offense before Week 1.
Murray's arm talent alone would make the two practices worthwhile for Baltimore's secondary. His ability to escape pressure, extend plays and create outside the structure of an offense will test every level of Jesse Minter's defense.
Marlon Humphrey, Nate Wiggins, Chidobe Awuzie, Kyle Hamilton and Malaki Starks will be challenged to remain disciplined when Murray leaves the pocket. Coverage responsibilities don't disappear once the original play breaks down. They often become more difficult as receivers adjust their routes and defenders are forced to cover for an additional three or four seconds.
That will make communication essential. Baltimore's defensive backs have consistently disrupted the passing game during training camp, but facing Murray and Minnesota's collection of pass catchers will offer a more revealing evaluation than competing against the same teammates every day.

AI chatbots confidently recommend outdated Social Security strategies, such as the restricted application, that were eliminated for anyone born after January 2, 1954.
A wrong Social Security filing date locks in a reduced monthly benefit for life, reshaping your tax bracket and survivor benefits for decades.
Verify any claiming decision at ssa.gov or with a fee-only advisor, keeping in mind that chatbots work for general concepts but cannot account for your personal details.
Many financial professionals are salespeople paid on what they push, not whether you end up wealthier. A fiduciary is the opposite. The SEC legally requires them to put your interests first. Advisor.com's free matching tool pairs you with vetted fiduciaries from major national firms, all in under three minutes. See who you match with today.
Picture a 63-year-old widow who still works part-time and is deciding whether to claim Social Security now. She could start a survivor benefit on her late husband's record, wait for her own retirement benefit to grow, or reverse the order if the numbers favor that approach. She asks an AI chatbot. It responds that deemed filing prevents her from claiming only one benefit while delaying the other. The explanation is fluent, detailed, and wrong.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes spoke with reporters after practice on Saturday at Missouri Western State University. He shared his thoughts on potentially playing in the preseason.
"I'm for whatever coach (Andy Reid) says; I'm gonna prepare to play. "He hasn't told me anything, so I'll prepare to play," said Mahomes. "I'm prepared to get myself ready, and we'll see where we go from there. And if not, I'll be as locked in as I am during the game, and I'm trying to get myself as ready to go for the game. So it's just a process of trying to make sure you're ready for the season, and whatever coach thinks is best, I'll do."
Mahomes responds to head coach Andy Reid's comments on Friday about his chances of playing in next week's preseason opener against the Los Angeles Rams. The three-time Super Bowl MVP is focused on being ready for the regular season and will follow the coaching staff's plans.
"I'm like trying to hold myself back because I'm just a competitor and I like competing, and all of a sudden I'm running and cutting back and trying to pitch the ball," said Mahomes, "So it's just like trying to keep yourself from doing stuff like that. But when it's fourth down, you want to try to make a play happen. You try to make a play happen. So I'm not going to lose who I am, but I'm trying to keep myself smart, keep myself in position to be out there for my teammates."
Mahomes finished the 2025 season with 22 touchdown passes and 11 interceptions in 14 games before the knee injury. He also rushed for 422 yards and five touchdowns.

The 2026-27 NBA season is yet to begin, but Houston Rockets star Kevin Durant has already hailed the Philadelphia 76ers as the team to beat.
Additionally, KD compared the current 76ers roster to the iconic 2016-17 Golden State Warriors team and asked the fans to treat them similarly. After all, the 2016-17 Warriors were considered unfair.
