If you’ve been waiting for a cheaper way to jump into Magic: The Gathering’s big Marvel crossover, Amazon has now shaved nearly $50 off one of the easiest products in the lineup to crack open and start playing.

As of June 9, the Magic: The Gathering Marvel Super Heroes Jumpstart Booster Box is available on Amazon from $119.94, with the lowest-priced listing currently sold by Collectors Expedition and including free delivery between June 30 and July 1 — getting to your door slightly after its June 26 release date. 

If you prefer to buy your trading cards from Amazon directly, the Jumpstart Booster Box sold and shipped by Amazon currently costs $123.93. That’s a 26% discount, saving $43.83, with free delivery currently set for Monday, June 29. 

More importantly, this version comes with Amazon’s preorder price guarantee, meaning if the price drops again before release, you should pay the lowest Amazon price offered between checkout and launch.

Amazon isn’t technically the lowest overall storefront, though it’s close. Walmart currently has the box for $114.99 through third-party seller Cataclysm Games, while TCGplayer listings start at $114.43 with shipping included. At that lowest price, you’ll only be paying $4.76 per pack.

Inside the box, you’ll get 24 Jumpstart Boosters, each containing 20 Marvel Super Heroes-themed cards. Every pack features one of 51 possible Marvel themes, and because each one includes the lands needed to play, you can just grab two packs, shuffle them, and start battling right away.

Among other MTG deals going on Amazon right now, you can also grab the 24-pack Avatar: The Last Airbender Jumpstart Booster Box on sale for just over $85. For more from the Marvel Super Heroes expansion, though, you can preorder the 30-pack Play Booster Box for $139.55.

If you’re also a Pokémon TCG fan, although currently not available on Amazon, the newly announced Pitch Black expansion — Booster Packs, ETBs, Display Boxes, and Booster Bundles — is available to preorder at TCGplayer.

That's not the only high praise the Beats Studio Pro have received, either. They're the top pick in Mashable's roundup of the best Beats headphones; writer Alex Bracetti highlights their sound quality and lossless audio, explaining that Studio Pros "come with custom 40-millimeter drivers and a built-in DAC that enables lossless audio when connected with a USB-C cable." He also notes that the headphones' Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) compares with Apple's AirPods Max. That's great news for those looking to have a reliable pair of headphones for their next trip or commute into work, who want to zone out from people or traffic noise around them. On top of that, the Beats Studio Pro also boast up to 40 hours of battery life.

Trump has been getting angry at journalists again, this time clashing with NBC Meet the Press moderator Kristen Welker after she challenged him over his comments about various primaries being rigged.

"This interview, first of all, it was interrupted several times by rain, and I don't know if he was worried about the cotton candy on his head getting wet or he just didn't like the fact that he was being taken to task by a woman," says Jimmy Kimmel in the clip above. "Either way, their talk ended in a full-blown Trumper tantrum."

Kimmel then plays the clip of Trump storming out of the interview, with his trousers edited out and replaced by a diaper, and baby noises added in post.

"Can you imagine any other president in the history of any other place doing that?" the host asks. "That was a hissy fit."

Archer, the gay dating app launched by Match Group during Pride Month 2023, is shutting down just three years later.

Michael Kaye, the app's director of brand marketing and communications, announced the end of Archer in May, soon after the parent company announced a $100 million investment in Sniffies, a gay hookup app.

"We're incredibly proud of what we built with ARCHER and grateful to the community, partners, and supporters who helped make it possible," Kaye told Mashable in an emailed statement. "While ARCHER will be winding down, we're thankful for the impact it had and the connections it fostered over the years."

SEE ALSO: The best gay dating apps of 2026: Grindr is still king (even if we sometimes wish it wasn't)

Archer sought to make gay dating more intentional, focusing more on building relationships than finding flings. In 2024, TechCrunch reported that Archer had been downloaded over 685,000 times within a year of its debut. But Grindr, arguably the most well-known gay hookup app, was downloaded 10 million times in the year preceding TechCrunch's reporting. As Mashable states in our gay dating app roundup, Grindr is still king.

In recent years, however, users have complained that Grindr is paywalling its best features and that its interface is buggy. Competitors have popped up, including Archer, and also Sniffies, Scruff, and Jack'd. The cruising site Squirt, which pre-dated Grindr, just launched an app this April.

Now, it appears that at least in the gay dating space, Match Group will focus on Sniffies.

"We look forward to partnering with Sniffies to continue fostering meaningful queer connections and building for the future of the community," Kaye stated.

Archer will officially shut down on June 17.

"There's an app for that" was a great marketing line, and for most of the existence of mobile app stores it's largely been true. Since anyone can develop an app for mobile phones, the diversity of apps that do very niche things exploded.

The NYT Connections puzzle today is not too difficult if you're a musician.

Connections is the one of the most popular New York Times word games that's captured the public's attention. The game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier—so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for today's Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications' Games section. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

Today's NYT Strands hints are easy if you love cruises.

Strands, the New York Times' elevated word-search game, requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns. Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.

By providing an opaque hint and not providing the word list, Strands creates a brain-teasing game that takes a little longer to play than its other games, like Wordle and Connections.

Originally created by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, Wordle rapidly spread to become an international phenomenon, with thousands of people around the globe playing every day. Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once. 

Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.

The best Wordle starting word is the one that speaks to you. But if you prefer to be strategic in your approach, we have a few ideas to help you pick a word that might help you find the solution faster. One tip is to select a word that includes at least two different vowels, plus some common consonants like S, T, R, or N.

What happened to the Wordle archive?

The entire archive of past Wordle puzzles was originally available for anyone to enjoy whenever they felt like it, but it was later taken down, with the website's creator stating it was done at the request of the New York Times.

TL;DR: Amazon has the Pokémon TCG: Mega Moonlit Tin (Mega Clefable ex edition) marked down to $47.29 ahead of its June 12 release, taking 21% off its usual $59.95 price. Walmart is slightly cheaper at $46.77, though TCGplayer has unopened listings going as low as $29.37.

Getting packs from the recent Mega Evolution in the Pokémon TCG at a reasonable price is still a pretty tough task. However, this is where price drops on collection boxes like this Mega Clefable tin are among the best ways to score trading cards on a budget.  

As of June 9, Amazon has the Pokémon TCG: Mega Moonlit Tin — Mega Clefable ex edition available to preorder for $47.29. That’s a 21% cut from its typical $59.95 price, saving you $12.65 on the moonlit-themed collector tin, and it's the lowest price we’ve seen with the seller yet, as confirmed with price tracker camelcamelcamel. 

Shipped and sold by Crooked Cart, delivery is estimated for June 18-25 at the time of writing, at least six days after its June 12 release date. However, for just a penny more, at $47.30, you can preorder the Mega Clefable ex Tin from the seller Boxed Vinyl — giving you faster delivery for June 17. 

Inside, you’ll get one very pretty Mega Clefable ex foil promo card, four Pokémon TCG booster packs (two Chaos Rising, one Perfect Order, and one Phantasmal Flames — according to product imagery), and one code card for Pokémon TCG Live.

This means that even before you take the promo card and TCG Live card into account, the $47.29 price will have you paying only $11.82 per pack. Since single boosters for all three Pokémon TCG expansions usually cost between $12 and $16 on Amazon, you’ll be saving around $4 per pack. 

On the other hand, those who are willing to shop outside of Amazon can save a lot more. Walmart’s third-party listings for the Mega Moonlit Tin go slightly lower at $46.77, but unopened listings on TCGplayer go far cheaper at $29.37 each — even a small amount higher than its market price of $27.64. 

For even more Pokémon TCG backs at a more tolerable price, you can grab the Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box on sale for just over $92. To get the lowest cost per pack, though, the Pokémon TCG’s 36-pack Chaos Rising Booster Display Box, selling for under $265, means you’re paying around $7.36 per pack. 

Although currently not available on Amazon, the Pokémon TCG’s newly announced Pitch Black expansion — Booster Packs, ETBs, Display Boxes, and Booster Bundles — is available to preorder at TCGplayer.

If summertime has you spending more time outside, a cleaner like the Roborock Q10 S5+ can be a worthy addition to your home. Its vacuuming, which boasts 10,000 Pa suction, can lift up any dirt, crumbs, or pet hair that's gotten stuck in your carpets. Plus, its JawScrapers Comb main brush and anti-tangle side brush help prevent hair from getting caught up inside and slowing it down.

Its mopping system is plenty powerful as well, as it scrubs up to 3,000 times per minute to tackle annoying stains on your harder floors. It also features obstacle avoidance technology and has a quieter operation, which is why Mashable ranks it among the best robot vacuums, earning the title of 'Quietest robot vacuum'.

Mashable senior shopping reporter Leah Stodart writes the Roborock Q10 S5+ "has reliably completed all missions in my apartment for weeks, and isn't nearly as obnoxious when self-emptying as most other robot vacuums I've tested — it barely reaches 70 decibels, which isn't much louder than competitors while they're just cleaning."

If it sounds like the perfect fit for your home, don't miss out on this great deal on the Roborock Q10 S5+ at Amazon.

Jon Stewart has always been game for a tough interview, and though Elmo might be safe, 'Elmo' is not.

In the clip above the Daily Show host recaps a controversial X post from the beloved Sesame Street character's official account. On June 4, Elmo made a neutral comment on the NBA finals between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs, writing, "Elmo hopes both teams have fun!" In response, Knicks fans demanded the New Yorker "pick a side" — and on Monday night, that included Stewart.

To scrutinise the post, Stewart interviewed a knockoff 'Elmo' — one The Daily Show has wheeled out during previous X post debacles. Suffice to say this is not the Sesame Street Elmo you know. It gets dark.

Apple's iOS 27, now available as developer beta, lets users tweak the Liquid Glass appearance more precisely than ever.

Previously, you could either set the Liquid Glass to either Clear or Tinted. Now, there's a slider that lets you adjust transparency from Ultra Clear on the one side, all the way to Tinted Glass on the other.

I've tried it out in the new iOS 27 developer beta, and (of course) I immediately set it to Ultra Clear. Not everyone is thrilled with so much transparency in the interface they use every day, so you might want to go the other way, or anywhere in between; the choice is yours. I also did the same thing on the iPad, which has the same setting.

To access this feature, you'll have to download and install the iOS 27 developer beta. We've got instructions on how to do that over here; just have in mind that it's unwise to install a developer beta on your primary device, and if you do so, make sure you've backed up your device first.

Once you have the iOS 27 or iPadOS 27 developer beta installed, you'll find the feature under Settings - Appearance - Liquid Glass. From there, you can move the slider freely, and immediately see the result in a nifty viewer that shows you how a text input box will interact with other elements of the interface.

That's it! Have fun with the slider.

Note that this isn't the only change Apple has done to Liquid Glass. The company says it updated app icons to be sharper and more defined, and improved contrast as well as more uniform refraction should help with readability.

Mel Mitchell isn’t afraid of a hot take. 

The Atlanta-based stand-up comedian, actor, and content creator caught our attention this year for her sharp commentary and quick wit. She’s also been named one of the Mash101 — our list of the voices shaping digital culture right now.

“Whether she's breaking down a pop culture moment or reenacting a familiar online interaction, the throughline is the same,” writes Mashable’s Crystal Bell. “The joke lands because the observation is precise.”

Mitchell has us cracking up with “the black mom on ‘The Magic School Bus’” and her loving caricature of director Ryan Coogler. With her impression of “the black muggle mom,” Mitchell continues an ongoing content stream that riffs on the Harry Potter universe.  

Mitchell’s Potter-inspired comedy really took off after a video of her as a black teacher at Hogwarts went viral. Subsequent videos, like the muggle mom at the Hogwarts Parent/Teacher conference, have also gained widespread adoration. (Book 3 — Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban — is Michell's favorite, in case you were wondering.)

Mitchell has also added "actor" to her resumé this year, appearing on KevOnStage's "Churchy," "The Hospital," and "The Airport."

We recently caught up with the 31-year-old comedian to talk about her love for comedy, being a pastor’s kid, and which products she relies on for recording content.

You often feature your natural hair as a topic of conversation in your content – what are your go-to hair products?

I love the Camille Rose setting foam, the Bask & Lather edge control, a spray bottle of water, and the green Eco Style gel.

How has being a “pastor’s kid” (as you say) influenced your comedy?

I say all the time that being a comedian is ministry. Comedy and preaching are the same skillset, so I believe it was passed down genetically! That and my hilarious life experiences have set me up for success in comedy. 

Who is your ideal audience?

My ideal audience consists of Black women and the Black LGBTQIA community; they just get me!

What do you love about what you do?

I really enjoy making people laugh and spreading joy. My favorite is when I make a SUPER niche joke, and it reaches the few people who would actually understand it.
