I've declared my undying love for The Dream Eaters before, and I'm back to share one of their songs that is absolutely getting me through this long, hot, depressing summer. If, like me, you spend most of your days tuned into the news and are overwhelmed by all of the awful...
After being drawn together as a magical version of the Magnificent Seven, the Malevolent ones aim to end all the gods and devils that have given them a hard time, while saving humanity and reality. Joined by a remarkable new member, to replace a traitor, Cade Ombra, and his ...
The Orc city smoldered, burned down in the wake of battle. The ground soaked in a knuckle's depth of blood and ash. The savage cries of its defenders now silent and still as its ruin was overseen by the architects of its very destruction. — Read the rest The post What does O...
McDonald's has announced a limited-time Spicy option for its McMuffin sandwiches. The word on the street is we're turning up the heat on breakfast this summer. Starting July 8, you can add some kick to your morning routine with the sizzling debut of Spicy McMuffin®...
I've found a new animal (anti-)hero, the unpretentious and ubiquitous dove. Or pigeon. Call these members of the Columbidae family whichever name you want, since there is 'no scientific distinction' between the two. What, you might ask, makes them so worthy of my admiration? ...
Humans in T. Rex costumes are objectively hilarious. Even more so when they attempt to do serious things. Over 300 runners of all ages competed in T. Rex costumes last weekend in the T. Rex World Championship Races in front of a crowd of thousands. — Read the rest The post W...
Time travel, that greatest of humankind's ambitions. Who among us wouldn't like the chance to go back and right some wrongs, or otherwise make different choices? Sadly, at least for now, it's a scientific impossibility… unless you happen to know the right self-assured...
Move over, Joey Chestnut, there are new competitive eaters on the scene. Their names are Kash, Rufus, Mallomar, Romeo, and Butterball. However, they won't be eating hot dogs as they are strict herbivores. They are also goats. For the past several years, the Riverside Park...
2022's Cyberpunk: Edgerunners tie-in anime has been called the best thing to come out of the Cyberpunk 2077 debacle. I would disagree with this as a die-hard fan of the game after its legendary comeback, but the show is pretty damn good. — Read the rest The post "Cyberpunk:...
The second season of Wednesday, on Netflix, is visually what we expect from Tim Burton, as Tim Burton can make a thing. The trailer looks beautiful. The story seems to be spoiled, but I think we're watching for one-liners and to see whatever the new kooky goth dance...
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass describes a scene of 'chaos and fear' as Angelenos are abducted off the streets by masked men purporting to be police, and rejects DHS threats of arrest as 'pathetic.' The threats start around 3:30 in the video. — Read the rest The post DHS...
Fond of discussing characters from his favorite movie, The Silence of the Lambs, it sounds like Trump missed the discussion of tariffs in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Everyone should feel confident that the President of the United States has a firm grasp on the history...
Bluetooth is as rinky-dink as it ever was, dongles are easily lost, and batteries fail at the most annoying moments. But wired keyboards tend to be old-fashioned and cheaply-made or expensive gamer bling. Logitech's new K620 keyboard has the looks and key travel of its MX...

Frame of preference is a history of the settings available on the Apple Macintosh through and just beyond the classic era. 'As a designer, I'm meant to dislike settings,' writes author Marcin Wichary. 'As a user, I love them.' The story begins in 1984 (though there was a...
Elon Musk's chatbok, Grok, often annoys him by echoing mainstream consensus on political topics, leading him to declare that it will be fixed. Today, the fix was clearly in, as the AI-powered account praised Hitler, issued a series of antisemitic remarks, and helped...

Online calculators are simple apps but mostly look rough on phones for all the usual 'website on a phone' reasons. Calculate How is a new set designed to be functional and accessible on handsets. [via] So far, there are mathematical calculators, a time card thingy, unit...
Anthony 'decryption' Agius writes about Trying To Find Meaning In Owning An Old Mac. Following in the footsteps of his father's late-life interest in classic cars, he bought an SE/30 from 1989 and 'hasn't been this excited about a computer for a long time.' — Read the rest ...
