In the world of insects, you could make an argument for the praying mantis being the most majestic, even though it’s a ruthlessly efficient hunter. These bugs make quick work of taking down anything that gets in their way, yet still have a certain beauty about them that’s hard to find in other insects. But […]

At the Paymaster Lounge in Portland, Oregon, one man recently found the least mainstream vending machine of all time. (Portland is, after all, a hipster haven.) Instead of finding sodas, candy bars, and chips, he feasted his eyes on items that could easily make up an early adopter’s starter pack. The hipster-friendly machine was filled […]
I don’t think it’s controversial to say that ocean-dwelling creatures are pretty much the worst. Sure, on land we have spiders and rabid animals, but those things that inhabit the deep sea are so creepy, especially when you consider just how little we know about them. One critter that we do know a bit about […]

Pregnancy comes with a lot of little problems: the clothes that don’t fit, the odd food that you crave odder hours and frequent bathroom breaks are just the tip of the belly bump. As any mom will tell you, bringing new life into the world is amazing and terrible all at the same time. Especially […]
Most folks familiar with the name Tesla know that it’s associated with more than just an electric car company. Nikola Tesla was one of the most brilliant inventors of the 20th century. While he was discredited in life, he gained lasting recognition posthumously. Beyond what we know for sure about Tesla, there are dozens of […]
Let’s face it. Creative people can be real weirdos sometimes (and that’s what makes them so awesome). Typically, I try not to question other people’s creativity, but it’s impossible to look at these pictures and not say “Why?” Perhaps that’s the point of the “chinface,” which is exactly what it sounds like. This is the kind of art that […]
Not to brag, but I was pretty great at flute in my middle school band. In fact, I was the only one from my school selected for the upper-level class when we transitioned to high school. But then it got too hard and I quit. This guy is making me reconsider my musical roots, though. […]
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTBT_ATF’); }); There’s a reason why people live in fear of the possibility of sinkholes: They can happen anywhere at pretty much any time. Oh, and they’re also merciless, swallowing everything in their path with no regard for life or property. The latest sinkhole victims? Lyn and Ray McKay of Ipswich, Australia. The […]
