You made it through the week. Time to treat yourself! I dug through the sea of fake reviews and gimmicks for sweet savings on gadgets you’ll actually want. Let’s dive in.

🚘 Eyes on the road 24/7: Redtiger’s 4K dual dash cam ($118.99, 30% off) covers your ride from front to back, even when parked. Your protection is worth the investment.

Comfort you can click: Sore wrist? Logitech’s ergonomic mouse ($69.25, 13% off) keeps your hand in a natural pose. Perfect for those marathon workdays or late-night scrolling.

🔋 Power in a pinch: Dead phone? Not on my watch. Grab a slim portable charger ($15.99, 36% off) that works with Apple and Android.

🔌 “Alexa, let there be light”: Control your lights and appliances with just your voice. These smart plugs ($25.99, 7% off) work with all the big smart assistants like Alexa, Google and Siri.

📖 Treadmill reading = solved: Flip through e-books without lifting a finger with a page turner remote ($19.54, 43% off) that comes with a nifty bag. Lazy? Maybe. Brilliant? Definitely. 

13 hours of fun: That’s the battery life of Amazon’s new Fire HD 10 tablet ($94.99, 32% off). You’ll save a cool $45 to stream, browse and more.

📺 Cut the cord: The Google TV Streamer 4K ($79, 21% off) turns any screen into a smart TV. Say “hello” to Google Voice and “bye” to your cable bill.

🎧 Wireless wins again: Don’t get stuck in 2005. An AirFly Pro ($46.99, 15% off) turns your old-school headphones into wireless ones.

Rock on, rain or shine: BolaButty’s waterproof speaker ($21.99, 19% off) brings the tunes for 20 hours. Great for pool parties or beach days.

🧹 Chores? What’s that? Saved the biggest deal for last. Relax while your iRobot Roomba ($129, 48% off) cleans your carpets and hardwood floors.

✅ Can’t list all the amazing tech deals here, so click for 10 more incredible finds. Grab ’em while you can! I’ve revamped my Amazon storefront with fresh picks I know you’ll love, too. 😉

🚨 Health data breach alert: Yale New Haven Health is dealing with the biggest health data breach of 2025 (so far). Over 5.5 million patients’ personal info, like names, addresses, SSNs and medical record numbers, is floating around the dark web. Watch for unexpected explanation-of-benefit letters in the mail. 

🤠 I’m trapped in a Waymo in Texas: No, it’s not the latest country music hit. Two women were stuck in a Waymo in Austin. The doors wouldn’t unlock but did open after they threatened to go live on TikTok. Waymo says they hit the “pull over” button. Nothing like threatening a viral video to make a robot say “my bad” and let you out.

Scam on the line: Phone buzzing with job offers? You’re not alone. Fake posts scammed folks out of $61 million last year, up from $14.8 million in 2023. When money’s tight, scammers know you might take a job you’d usually think twice about. Jobs where the CEO’s email ends in .biz.ru? Pass.

🎬 Insta edits drops: Meta just launched Edits, a new free video editor app to compete with TikTok’s CapCut. It includes AI tools like “Cutouts” and “Animate,” and exports without a vibe-killing watermark. Finally, an easier way to spend three hours editing a video that gets 11 likes and a passive-aggressive DM from your aunt.

Max is cracking down on password sharing: If you’re letting someone outside your house use your account, you’ll have to pay up. The new Extra Member Add-On is $7.99 a month and lets one person have their own profile under your plan. Not ideal, but still cheaper than a full $9.99 subscription. Next up: HBO Max charges you per emotion felt.

🍎 Bad apples: Apple just got a reality check from the National Advertising Division, which told them to cut it with the “available now” marketing for Apple Intelligence. Most of the shiny AI features they hyped aren’t ready. Apple Intelligence is like that friend who says, “I’m on my way” while still in the shower.

“KYS” isn’t harmless teen slang: Parents, you might see “kys” or “keys” online and think it’s just another TikTok-ified acronym. But it’s actually short for “kill yourself,” and it’s alarmingly common in teen comment sections and DMs. Some teens use it jokingly (🤨), but it can land with real emotional weight.

Ever searched your name online and found your info everywhere? Creepy, right? That’s why I love Incogni — it scrubs your personal data from shady people-search sites and data brokers tracking you. If you’ve ever felt like your privacy is slipping away, this is a game-changer.

Check out what Sylvia had to say after signing up:

“Thanks so much for the Incogni information. I’m blown away by how many sites they’ve removed my info from. I’ll definitely tell my friends about it…” – Sylvia

Incogni is helping thousands take back their privacy. And it only takes a few clicks to get started.

🔒 New feature alert: With the unlimited plan, you’re automatically removed from 250+ sites and you can choose any site across the web for Incogni’s pros to target.

⚡️ 3-second tech genius: Need to digitize a signature? Sign a blank paper, take a pic, then remove the background at remove.bg — clean and ready to paste.

🎨 Designing with AI? Instead of saying “red” or “blue,” use HTML color codes for perfect shades. In ChatGPT or any bot, say, “Use this color palette: primary (#ffc745), secondary (#007a78), accent (#c0c0c0).” Try Adobe’s color wheel to find the codes and see how they look together.

Weather the storm: Get alerts about severe weather and earthquakes right on your phone. On Android, go to Settings > Notifications > Wireless emergency alerts. For iPhone, open Settings > Notifications. Under “Government Alerts,” toggle on Emergency Alerts and Public Safety Alerts.

🛑 Stop creepy DMs: Take charge of who can message you on Instagram. Open the app, tap your profile > More (three lines) > Messages and story replies > Message requests. Choose if you want DMs from followers or others to go to your Message Requests folder or not. Finally, an option between let everyone in and total digital hermit.

Code and go: Want to read a web page from your computer on your phone? Just use a QR code. In Chrome, find the page, click the three-dot menu > Cast, Save, and Share > Create QR code. Scan it with your phone’s camera, and voilà, the link opens in your mobile browser.

📍 Come on in: Your business looks great. Sharing what’s inside on Google Street View puts it on the map. Open Street View Studio > Upload (left) > select your 360 video > click OK. Make sure your video is in .mp4 or .mov format with GPS info or a .gpx file. In a few days, your space will be live on Google Maps.

Your inbox deserves better: I don’t use free email services from the usual suspects. Instead, I use StartMail. It’s a secure, private email service built by the same people who brought you Startpage, the world’s most private search engine. No creepy tracking, no targeted ads, no reading your messages. Ever.

🛰️ And the answer is *drumroll* C) “Happy Birthday.” Yup, the most repeatedly played song in space isn’t “Rocket Man” or “Space Oddity” (both strong vibes). Imagine orbiting the planet and being serenaded like it’s a Chuck E. Cheese party, now that’s interstellar cringe. Even aliens might be tired of it by now. 

👑 Speaking of … My niece wanted a Cinderella-themed birthday party. It was so great. I made her and all her friends clean the house.

Big thanks to Incogni: They made all this tech goodness free to you. If you’re ready to scrub your info off those sketchy data-broker and people-search sites, use my link to save 60%. Trust me, it’s a game changer.

💐 You made it to the end, rock star. Same time, same inbox tomorrow, and you’ll learn how to get faster Wi-Fi in less than five minutes. Let’s keep staying smart, curious and just a little bit chaotic. If your phone had feelings, it’d be jealous of you. 😎📱— Kim
