2016

Maybe it’s a cultural thing but this trailer for a movie from Ghana is amazeballs! It’s called 2016 and I’ve no idea what it’s about but I want to see more. I don’t care if it just continues like this for an hour without any discernible storyline, I’d still watch it all. I might need some more Ritalin but I’d watch it. via Robert Popper

Inspiration: Lypsinka

Lypsinka does exactly what is says on her tin. She’s a lip-synching drag phenomenon. Her act is part homage to Hollywood’s Golden Age and part performance art piece and once you watch a few of her acts, you’ll see that Lypsinka understands character and performance. Her legendary shows are full of amazing twists and turns that all tie up together into great narratives. Watch. Learn. Love.

Don’t say gay! Or -as this video demonstrates- you might get bashed up by a finger-pointing, shouty little kid. Of course, this kid means it in a supportive way. As in “Stop saying ‘That’s so gay‘ when you mean ‘That’s so lame!’ because it’s offensive to gay people and it’s stupid!”. Apparently these kids made this Public Service Announcement all by themselves as part of a school project. Good work kids!

You know that “fact” your Science teacher told you about humans only using 10% of their brains? Well, he was wrong. That’s according to this interesting article which lists the Top Ten Myths about the Human Brain. Most of you will probably have to use 110% of your brain just to read the long words in the article… but you can take it from me that it’s fascinating!
