Did you know there are bugs living on your face 24/7?! Try looking at your face under a microscope sometime! Anyway, we've been moving out of our apartment and I tried locking my boyfriend in a storage unit but he made his way back like cats do. I found out our storage unit doesn't have a ceiling.

Disney based the animatronic Mark Twain who hosts EPCOT's American Adventure on what the CIA had hoped Hal Holbrook would become before he was "radicalized" by the Civil Rights Movement. Isn’t automation grand??? Happy Fourth of July!

Mark Twain hated the Fourth of July. He was often invited to speak at Independence Day festivities. His audiences assumed that his reliably unpatriotic remarks were tongue-in-cheek jests. But he meant that shit. 1/9

Reminder from a Pittsburgher who was at one point Mr. Rogers neighbor: “Look for the helpers” was intended to be advice for his usual audience, children. We’re grown ups now. We’re supposed to be the helpers.

“This is exactly the kind of onerous, one-sided ‘agreement’ that necessitates the right-to-repair,” EFF’s Kit Walsh told @404media.co. “The data collection is excessive” and it “forecloses competition and allows Samsung to inflate the prices for parts."

Look, something original! Not a remake! Based on a pretty recent novel by 3 women, including Jodi here! PW called the book "an uproarious historical fantasy"--and the trailer reflects that it's definitely a fun AU, so please go in *expecting* a fun AU. I'm looking forward to it!
