The 'Cat In The Hat' Suit From The 2003 Mike Myers Movie Is Being Auctioned Off—And It's Legit Terrifying
Well, if you want to own the suit that made the whole thing happen, it's up for auction... and some people are real creeped out by it.
Because as sort of low-grade creepy as the live-action Cat in the Hat suit was? The empty costume is pure nightmare fuel. Please brace yourself...
Gah! That is dark-sided and straight from hell! But in case you haven't gotten the full effect, here's the full-length version from the people auctioning the suit, Propstore Auction, which, as the name suggests, auctions off film-set materials.
Truly, sit down a minute before scrolling further. It's a lot.

AHHHHHADS;LFKAJSDPF[LQWEOPI1072349Q2873RAOSDKLNVNASEFOI!!!!!
That is a sleep-paralysis demon, not a Dr. Seuss costume!
Propstore Auction describes the costume as:
"A top hat constructed of red and white felt fabric with a cream-color brim and a grosgrain ribbon sweatband with the interior marked 'R 3.'"
"A synthetic fur covered Spandex suit labeled 'Mike Myers #1.'"
"A rubber mask covered in synthetic fur with eyes and mouth openings and an attached polyester stuffed bow."
"A pair of Sherpa gloves padded with beads labeled '19L.'"
Which is surely all true on the merits. The missing info, of course, is that this costume is obviously cursed.
Jokes aside, there's obviously some real costume expertise in this thing, and if you're the type who loves film memorabilia and artisanship, this is one heck of a buy.
So far, the costume has garnered three bids, with the get-up valued at between $12,000 and $24,000.
But on the internet, all anyone could see was the abject terror in those vacant eyes and sagging cat skin. So naturally the costume has become a viral horror show!
Unfortunately none of us will ever sleep again. Though there may be a silver lining: Some thought the costume would make a perfect basis for a new highbrow horror film. Paging Ari Aster!
Anyway, if you do get to bidding on the ol' Cat in the Hat's duds, just be aware: Legend has it the costume really is cursed and will doom you to a life of feline cosplay.
Don't say the internet didn't warn you!

Rosie O'Donnell Blasts Jesse Watters After His 'Gang Of Unruly Reporter Yellers' Accosts Her At Theater
O'Donnell's TikTok response to one of these requests was captioned:
"Today a fox crew was waiting for me to exit the car - they ran in mass [sic] screaming JESSE WATTERS WANTS TO TALK TO U - so what ? - I have no desire to talk to him or fox (we lie to Americans) 'news' - so say what u need and go the f*ck away..."
"Watters faced intense blowback for a comment on 'The Five' suggesting Vice President Kamala Harris would get 'paralyzed in the situation room while the generals have their way with her.' He later stated his remarks were misconstrued and not intended to be sexual."
"What woman would want to talk to him besides maga cult ladies?"

You can watch O'Donnell's message for Watters here:
In the video, O'Donnell said:
"So here’s what I want to say to Jesse Waters and his gang of unruly, reporter yellers at the theater today: No, I do not want to answer a question from Jesse Watters. I’ve never watched Jesse Watters, and I don’t ever care to."
"I’ve read enough about what he’s said about women and who he is and how his career began on 'The Bill O’Reilly Show,' of all places."
"OK, Jesse, you do what you do, stay out of my orbit. If you wanna interview me, call my publicist, that’s how it works, don’t you know that yet? I’m not afraid of you, I just have no interest in you in any capacity."
"TikTok, you don’t stop."
People agreed that O'Donnell should pay Watters no mind, but Watters needs to leave women alone.

Watters team drew a similar reaction when they accosted New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on the Capitol Building steps to ask her to appear on Watters' show.
Representative AOC told Watters' messenger that she'd never appear on a program that sexualized her.
Watters has drawn flack for his inappropriate and creepy comments about women while live on air. He's also made multiple "jokes" about sexual assault and survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's child sex trafficking.
Trump Slammed After Claiming Infants Get Vaccines The 'Size Of A Bottle Of Soda' In Unhinged Rant
Under Trump's executive order, only six of the 17 vaccines currently recommended for all U.S. children would continue to have full recommendations: measles, mumps, rubella (MMR); diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (DTaP); polio, Hib; pneumococcal disease; HPV; and varicella.
Trump gave a number of wildly inaccurate justifications for the childhood vaccine schedule changes while disparaging the vaccines that will still be recommended.
At one point, Trump claimed:
"I saw this early on, and I’ve seen proof of it, where they have a vaccination thing, looks like the size of a bottle of soda, poured into a little child’s body."
"And bad things happen in many cases, too many cases. This is an explosion, this is an epidemic."
You can see Trump's comment here:
CNN's Erin Burnett examined Trump's claim that he had seen "proof" of a vaccine for children that is "the size of a bottle of soda."
The POTUS's claim didn’t hold water.
You can see Trump's misinformation debunked here:
As Burnett demonstrated, the MMR vaccine dose has a volume of 0.5 mL while a standard soda bottle contains 500 mL (16.9 fl oz) of liquid.
Even adding up all childhood vaccine doses doesn't equal the volume of a standard soda bottle. A child would need to get approximately 1,000 vaccinations in the same day to receive a soda bottle's worth of liquid.
Trump continued to spout similar lies throughout the event.
The POTUS also pushed the popular conspiracy theory that childhood vaccinations created an autism epidemic that doesn't exist. Conspiracy theorists like RFK Jr., who made millions off his misinformation before joining the Trump administration, confuse increased research, understanding, and diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) with increased occurrence.
The disorder wasn't identified and documented as a unique condition until 1911. But ASD, like most neurodivergent congenital conditions, has always existed.
Trump stated:
"Decades ago, children received only a small fraction of the vaccines required today. In those times, people were much healthier and of course the high rates of autism now observed did not exist. There's a reason for such epidemic rates of autism."
No one in the Oval Office shared the childhood death and permanent impairment rates from the illnesses—like lockjaw, polio, whooping cough, mumps, and measles—that the unvaccinated children experienced decades ago.
Trump also said the MMR vaccine is "quite lethal."
When asked to back his claim of lethality, Trump responded:
"What I’ve heard is that there are some people who say it is that way."
Trump also seemingly nodded off numerous times.
Aaron Rupar offered a 7-minute supercut of the signing ceremony's lowlights on X and YouTube:
Many, including physicians and pharmacists, spoke out on social media about the Trump administration's latest medical misinformation event.

Executive orders are meant as guidance to federal agencies and should have no legal effect on the public. However the Trump administration has routinely used them to circumvent Congress, laws, and the United States Constitution.
What fallout will occur from this latest EO remains to be seen.
