Pokémon Go is giving thanks for obsessed players everywhere with a special Thanksgiving event. From November 23 to November 30, XP and Stardust gains will be doubled. Sounds like a lovely excuse to wander away from the dinner table before the fighting starts.

A 36 year-old trucker was arrested in Aichi Prefecture, Japan for allegedly hitting and killing a 9 year-old boy. The suspect is quoted as saying he was playing Pokémon Go, wasn’t looking at the road and “didn’t see what was in front of him.”

Adam Levine and Maroon 5 reenact Pokémon Go for their “Don’t Wanna Know” music video in the hopes it might get you to still care about them. Sarah Silverman, Vince Vaughn, and other celebrities also make an appearance. Unfortunately, Kendrick Lamar’s verse from the single is nowhere to be found.
