Adidas Is Making Game Of Thrones Sneakers

One of the main criticisms levelled againstAdidas’ Dragon Ball collaboration was that the shoes were all trash, and didn’t feature the company’s more popular models like the Ultra Boost.

Planet, a company that runs “the largest fleet of Earth-imaging satellites in orbit”, use those satellites to take hi-res, zoomed-in shots of the surface.

A List Of Weird Names My Kid Calls My Video Games

You and I, as adults, know to call things by their actual names. My kid is four, and does no such thing. For reference, he’s been playing some of these systems and games for around 18 months now. Which is why, despite now being a four year-old kid who can actually do a fairly good…

League Of Legends Made A K-Pop Video

And it’s…good? Just because they can, Riot Games has taken four of League of Legends’ champions and put them in a K-Pop band.
