Good morning, it's Nathan wishing you a restful weekend ahead! |
🎵 I don't want to grow up, I'm a ... Macy's kid? |
Something like that. If you're old enough to remember the Toys R Us jingle ("I don't want to grow up, I'm a Toys R Us kid"), you'll want to hear this news. |
Macy's is adding Toys R Us-branded toy shops in more than 400 of its stores, resurrecting a brand that was liquidated after its bankruptcy a few years ago. |
I just hope it doesn't take a miracle on 34th street to make this deal work. |

💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: Prospective home buyers often write "love letters" to sellers to help convince them to pick their bid. Buyers rave about the home and share personal details about their lives, often including family photos. But advocates for fair housing practices are concerned that these letters exacerbate racist housing practices. And now the state of Oregon has banned them, our Jessica Guynn reports. |
⌚ WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Amazon is reportedly considering opening something akin to department stores. Yes, as in the type of store that has been closing left and right for years. |
📰 And here are more stories you won't want to miss: |
1. OnlyFans built its digital business with the help of user-generated sexually explicit content. But now it's banning such content amid pressure from Wall Street. |
2. Toyota vehicles may be in short supply in the coming weeks. The automaker announced a slowdown in production due to the chip shortage. |
3. Flight cancelations and delays are causing a lot of frustration among travelers. Pack these 10 items in your carry-on just in case. |
4. Which parts of your credit report are employers allowed to see? We have answers here. |
5. Elon Musk revealed a secret on Thursday: Tesla is developing a humanoid robot. |
🤖 The Tesla Bot was designed to perform physical tasks considered "unsafe, repetitive or boring," our Brett Molina reports. |
The bot is 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighs 125 pounds, can carry up to 45 pounds and can deadlift up to 150 pounds. |
I just hope Musk has watched the 2004 Will Smith movie, "I, Robot." |
