Sarah Paulson Accidentally Spat a Chip Into Kim Kardashian’s Eye While Filming ‘All’s Fair’

Sarah Paulson and Kim Kardashian may play fierce rivals on screen, but off-screen, they can’t stop laughing.

While filming a heated courtroom scene for their upcoming Hulu drama *All’s Fair*, things took an unexpected turn when Paulson accidentally spat a potato chip directly into Kardashian’s eye.

“I had to say some really scandalous things in Kim’s face,” Paulson told *People* in a new digital cover story. “I did at one time spit a potato chip on her. I was in her face screaming, and it was like, ‘Bing!’ I saw it go in her eye.”

The incident broke the tension on set, leaving both stars in fits of laughter despite the scene’s intensity.

“Sarah and Kim sometimes could not look at each other without laughing,” recalled co-star Glenn Close, while Niecy Nash-Betts added, “Once the laughter started, we all knew it was going to be at least 30 minutes before we could even start.”

In *All’s Fair*, Kardashian and Paulson lead a powerhouse ensemble, including Naomi Watts, Teyana Taylor, and Close, as elite female divorce attorneys who strike out on their own in Los Angeles.

*All’s Fair* premieres November 4 on Hulu.

Kardashian, who also serves as executive producer, said the series centers on women lifting each other up through adversity.

“Even if you’re having a hard time or don’t believe in yourself, your girls are there to lift you up,” she said.

AMD Promises Continued Driver Support For RDNA 1 “RX 5000” & RDNA 2 “RX 6000” GPUs

**AMD Confirms Continued Driver Support for RDNA 1 & RDNA 2 Radeon GPUs**

AMD has addressed recent concerns regarding driver support for its older Radeon GPUs based on the RDNA 1 and RDNA 2 architectures. In a new statement, the company has clarified that Radeon RX 5000 and RX 6000 series cards will continue to receive driver updates, including new game support, optimizations, and security fixes.

### Background: Confusion Around Adrenalin 25.10.2 Driver Release

The release of the AMD Adrenalin 25.10.2 driver update sparked confusion among Radeon users. The update changelog noted that RDNA 1 and RDNA 2 GPUs would be moved to a separate driver branch and labeled as entering “Maintenance Mode.” Additional changes included the temporary removal of USB-C power charging support on the RX 7900 series (which was later reverted) and an increase in the overall driver package size to over 1 GB.

The primary concern, however, was the uncertainty around future driver support for older GPUs. Initial AMD statements hinted that game support for these older GPUs would continue “as per market needs,” but the vague wording failed to clarify exactly what that entailed.

### AMD’s Clarification: Continued Support with Dedicated Driver Branches

Today, AMD has provided a clear explanation on Radeon GPU driver support moving forward. According to the company, RDNA 1 (RX 5000 series) and RDNA 2 (RX 6000 series) GPUs will continue to receive:

– Support for the latest game releases
– Stability and game optimizations
– Security patches and bug fixes

These updates will arrive similarly to those provided for their latest RDNA 3 (RX 7000 series) and upcoming RDNA 4 (RX 9000 series) GPUs.

The key difference is that older GPUs will benefit from a dedicated, stable driver branch. This branch is built on years of tuning and optimizations, ensuring stability and consistent performance for current and future games. Meanwhile, newer GPUs on the RDNA 3 and RDNA 4 architectures will receive drivers that can integrate new features faster through a separate development path.

### What This Means for Radeon Users

AMD summarized the situation as follows:

> “This is not the end of support for RDNA 1 and RDNA 2. Your Radeon RX 5000 and RX 6000 series GPUs will continue to receive game support for new releases, stability and game optimizations, as well as security and bug fixes.
>
> The difference is that these products now benefit from a dedicated, stable driver branch, one built on years of tuning and optimization. This approach helps deliver a smoother, more consistent experience for your games while insulating previous generation GPUs from rapid changes designed for newer architectures.”

### Why AMD Is Taking This Approach

AMD explained the rationale behind splitting the driver codebase:

> “Our goal is simple: to give every Radeon gamer the best experience possible. By separating the code paths, our engineers can move faster with new features for RDNA 3 and RDNA 4, while keeping RDNA 1 and RDNA 2 stable and optimized for current and future games.”

### AMD’s Commitment to Radeon Gamers

The company reinforced its commitment to supporting all Radeon users:

> “We’ve supported Radeon gamers for generations and that commitment isn’t changing. Whether you’re gaming on an RX 5000, RX 6000, or the latest RX 9000, you’ll continue to get the reliability, performance, and care you expect from AMD. Because we’re all part of the same gaming community and every Radeon gamer matters.”

### Looking Ahead

It will be interesting to monitor how AMD delivers on this promise in upcoming driver releases. Currently, the Adrenalin 25.10.2 driver stands as the latest update available for RDNA series GPUs.

For Radeon users, this clarification should bring reassurance that their older GPUs will continue to receive essential support while allowing AMD to innovate rapidly on its newest architectures.

Middle school principal in Maine draws criticism after dressing as ICE agent for Halloween

A middle school principal in Maine is facing criticism after dressing as a federal immigration officer for Halloween. The costume included a bulletproof vest labeled “ICE.”

An image circulating widely online shows James Black, principal of Mt. Blue Middle School in Farmington, wearing the ICE outfit. The photo features Black in a bulletproof vest marked “Police ICE,” a cap with “ICE” written on it, and a gaiter patterned with blue stars and red stripes covering most of his face.

Christian Elkington, superintendent of the Mt. Blue Regional School Unit #9, confirmed the district is aware of the incident. “I have received several communications from staff members and others with concerns and/or questions about the matter,” Elkington told Boston.com Sunday night.

He added, “As we understand it, this situation occurred off RSU #9 grounds and was not connected to any RSU 9 activities. The district is responding to this situation in a manner consistent with our internal practices and procedures. We are also complying with our legal obligation to maintain the confidentiality of our employees.”

The tattoos visible on the man in the photo match those seen on Black’s Facebook profile. However, the profile appeared to have been taken down shortly after Boston.com viewed the images.

Project Relief Maine, an advocacy and mutual aid organization, shared the photo of the controversial costume on social media. They stated, “For immigrant students who already live in fear of ICE, this isn’t funny. It’s terrifying. Deportation isn’t a costume. It’s not a joke. It’s trauma.”

The group emphasized, “Students deserve to feel safe at school, not mocked by the very people who are supposed to protect them.”

Attempts to reach Black for comment on Sunday evening were unsuccessful.

Young Thug Says He Doesn’t Know Who The Alchemist Is

Young Thug Has Shut Down Hopes for a Collaboration Album with The Alchemist

A recent viral meme sparked excitement among fans about a potential collaboration album between Atlanta rapper Young Thug and legendary producer The Alchemist. The imagined project was described as an “introspective jazz” album, a pairing that quickly gained traction across rap Twitter. However, Young Thug has since put those hopes to rest by revealing that he doesn’t even know who The Alchemist is.

The confusion began when stylist Ian Connor shared a text exchange with Thugger on Twitter. In the conversation, Connor asked Young Thug if he had seen the meme or knew who The Alchemist was. Thug’s simple response was, “No who’s this?” To which Connor replied, “The Alchemist, one of the greatest producers of all time. I’ll kall you when my brain comes up with a plan, but this is sumn that needs to be done.”

It’s unclear whether the conversation continued beyond that point or if Young Thug ever took the time to look up the prolific beatmaker. The Alchemist is well-known for his classic projects with artists such as Freddie Gibbs, Earl Sweatshirt, and Boldy James.

The meme that sparked all the speculation originated from a tweet by Debating Hip-Hop, which imagined the duo crafting an “introspective jazz” collaboration. Fans eagerly embraced the idea, turning it into a widespread joke across rap circles on Twitter.

At ComplexCon, a reporter even took the opportunity to ask The Alchemist about the rumor. Playing it cool, he responded, “I can’t confirm or deny anything, bro. I need that, too. You can hook it up? Talk to him [points to fan]. If he makes it happen, then it’s gon’ happen. It’s on you now, bro.”

For now, while fans continue to hope, it seems a collaboration album between Young Thug and The Alchemist remains unlikely—at least until Young Thug gets to know who Uncle Al really is.

Commanders WR Luke McCaffrey out after opening kickoff shoulder injury

Luke McCaffrey suffered a significant injury during the Washington Commanders’ matchup against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night.

McCaffrey was expected to play a key role in the Commanders’ offense alongside quarterback Jayden Daniels. Additionally, the team was missing star receiver Terry McLaurin due to injury, which would have likely increased McCaffrey’s involvement throughout the game.

However, McCaffrey’s time on the field was cut short early in the first quarter. While participating on special teams during the opening kickoff, he suffered a shoulder injury. According to ESPN’s NFL insider Adam Schefter, this injury will sideline McCaffrey for the remainder of the game.

“Commanders ruled out Luke McCaffrey due to a shoulder injury,” Schefter reported.

Raiders’ Brock Bowers announces return from injury with 1-handed TD grab

All the questions about Brock Bowers’ readiness after returning from a knee injury on Sunday were quickly diminished when he caught an early touchdown for the Las Vegas Raiders against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Bowers had sat out the previous three games, which affected the Raiders’ already-thin offensive unit. The team had a bye week before hosting the Jaguars at Allegiant Stadium, giving Bowers extra time to recuperate. Fans wondered if he would be rusty after his extended time on the sidelines, especially since he had not played since Week 4.

However, the second-year tight end did not waste any time making his presence felt against Jacksonville. He scored on a seven-yard touchdown in the second quarter, giving the Raiders an early 6-0 lead. What made the play special was his one-handed catch before falling to the ground. Although it was initially ruled incomplete, a review showed that Bowers’ hip was in bounds, confirming the touchdown.

This score completed a 13-play, 95-yard drive by the Raiders and delighted the fans. It was a laudable play by the 22-year-old Bowers, demonstrating that he is not afraid to mix it up, even after recovering from a troubling injury.

Despite Bowers’ much-anticipated return, it wasn’t enough to power the Raiders to victory. Las Vegas lost to the Jaguars in a heartbreaker in overtime, 30-29, dropping their record to 2-6 and marking six losses in their last seven games.

Bowers finished the game with an impressive 12 receptions for 127 yards and three touchdowns. Notably, he extended his streak to 22 straight games with at least two receptions, making it the longest such streak in league history for a tight end starting a career.

Clearly, the Raiders cannot afford to lose Bowers, who was named to the All-Pro First Team and the Pro Bowl as a rookie. The 13th overall pick has been a gem for Las Vegas, and sustaining another injury would be a worst-case scenario for the team.

Looking ahead, the Raiders will aim to bounce back on Thursday when they face the Denver Broncos.
