Join us now for the tale of two cats, hungry not just for stinky salmon treats, but also the intellectual nourishment that comes from contemplating great art. Living in the Japanese city of Onomichi, this pair of feline critics has been trying to gain entry to a local museum only to be stymied, again and again, by…

Suggesting that Grindelwald isn’t the only one out there committing crimes against the wizarding world right now, BBC News reports that author J.K. Rowling is suing a former assistant for, among other things, supposedly using a company credit card to buy herself a couple of cats. (The News refuses to note whether the…

According to CNN, the Girl Scouts organization has filed a lawsuit against the Boy Scouts Of America over its decision to accept membership from girls and change its name to Scouts BSA, which Girl Scouts says has “marginalized” its “brand and activities.” Boy Scouts Of America has been planning this shift away from…

Those magnificent geniuses have done it at last, friends: Mankind’s dream of a phone you can fold up and put in your pocket is finally within our grubby-fingered reach.

It’s a Seinfeld joke that’s proven eerily prescient over the last 20 years: Jerry Seinfeld always seems to break even. The occasional foray into Bee-GI aside, Seinfeld has been a steady figure in the comedy landscape for decades now, even as the wider stand-up scene evolves, and his contemporaries—Roseanne Barr, Louis…

When you get to a certain level of wealth, the entire goddamn world becomes your playground. Case in point, Grimes’ boyfriend and professional rich guy Elon Musk. When not making business decisions based on weed jokes and arming Americans with flamethrowers, Musk has to find other ways to entertain himself. While we…

Seeing as how it’s an iconic institution controlled by a secretive, unstoppable corporation, it’s easy to understand why Walt Disney World has its own collection of urban legends (supposedly there are hidden Mickey Mouse shapes everywhere, but that’s simply too wild to believe). One of the most infamous myths…

While our current, social media-infused age means that there’s a good chance most people will have their first experience with weed thoroughly documented and shared for posterity, older generations have had to let these memories fade away with the passage of time. One middle-aged Utah lawmaker, though, has shown it’s…

“Critical world-building, smart characterization, and fun interaction between good friends.” That’s what Friends At The Table promises, and week by week it delivers it in spades. While other actual play podcasts can get bogged down in game mechanics or just spend too much time goofing around, game master Austin Walker…

Ted Cruz is the sad clown painting of American politics, a figure of mocking humor and pity that, ultimately, you just don’t want to look at for very long. Luckily, that wasn’t a problem for viewers of a recent Facebook Live broadcast Cruz attempted to host, in which his campaign staff displayed all the technical…

With the rise of ASMR videos, humanity has learned all sorts of new things about sounds we like to hear. For instance, some people are way into listening to barbers very quietly insult them while others apparently love the noises of women eating honeycombs right next to a microphone. Considering how vast and…

Look, we don’t know about you, but we rely on YouTube for a lot of shit over the course of a day. What was the theme song to that TV show we watched three times in the 1980s? YouTube’s got it. Need to watch another human being play through the entirety of Chex Quest? YouTube has your back. Children having annoying…

According to a report from Ars Technica, the weird UFO research group/art collective co-founded by former Blink-182 member Tom DeLonge known as To The Stars Academy has dug itself a $37.4 million deficit, bringing its longterm viability as a weird UFO research group/art collective into question. The organization is…

Of all the crimes, playful vandalism is by far the best. The joke-loving vandal, creeping through the night to perform their tasks, doesn’t want to hurt people or take from others. Instead, they find things in the world that aren’t to their liking and, for any number of reasons, mess them up in funny ways. If you’re…

Reddit can be a fun place, where the hottest memes are born and people can connect with other people who like the same hot memes they do, but it has also historically provided an outlet for truly horrible people to connect with other horrible people, rather than simply sitting back and allowing society to shun them…

There is nothing quite like staring down the barrel of your own mortality by thinking about what you’d choose as your last meal on earth or the final song you’d ever hear. These are deeply personal choices, difficult and unpleasant to think about. We regret to inform you that that decision might be made for you, and…

On a ranking of which companies we should feel comfortable trusting with our personal data, Walmart deserves to be somewhere at the bottom near Facebook and The Trump Organization. There’s just something unseemly about giving any sort of information to Walmart, like you’re a kid in a horror story getting tricked into…

Pop-Tarts and Steak-umm, two brands with nothing left to lose, have gone meta on Twitter. After fully embracing the dystopian hell behavior of pretending that their social media accounts are witty, sarcastic people rather than, uh, corporately mandated online advertisements, there was probably nowhere else to go than…

Answering the modest wishes of any number of Sumol-sipping fans, the Tiny Fuppets are finally coming back. It’s been six long years since Scott Gairdner (Funny Or Die, Moonbeam City) last posted a video cataloging the Portugeuse-voiced antics of his beloved online animation darlings, but now that time has come around…

In the Harry Potter books, people who graduate from a magic school like Hogwarts tend to get fantastical jobs like dragon breeder, wand salesperson, or customer service warlock, but it seems like they rarely get the sort of “real” jobs that us normal people get. Recently, though, Daniel Radcliffe decided to change…
