Need Fashion Tips? Watch Sailor Moon. 

I’m not talking about when Usagi and her friends transform into Sailor Moon and whatnot. Oh no, I’m talking about the threads those kids are wearing when not trying to save the Solar System. Korean clothing shop Kuchi Machi updated its Instagram account with a handful of Sailor Moon-inspired styles. This isn’t cosplay, mind you,…

Virtual Mt. Everest Will Let Anyone Climb It

You’ve (probably) never climbed Mt Everest. Icelandic studio Sólfar Studios want to help change that, without the hassle of having to risk death by extreme cold. Which is a very real risk, since nearly 300 climbers have been killed since 1922 trying to reach the summit. They’re workingon a model of the world’s tallest mountain…

See How Much Work It Takes To Turn Into Warcraft’s Deathwing

According to Warcraft canon, Deathwing the Destroyer is a giant dude dragon who is thousands of years old and and can scorch planets.

Ronda Rousey Is Still Great

I’ve seen a lot of people contending that Ronda Rousey was “exposed” over the weekend—that Holly Holm’s kick-heard-‘round-the-world is proof that Rousey was never all that good in the first place. Those people are wrong. To recap for the 2.47 people who don’t know: former UFC women’s bantamweight champ Ronda Rousey, one of the most…

How A League Of Legends Match Typically Falls Apart

A whole lot of ink has been spilt talking about talking about how “toxic” League of Legends is. Little to none of this coverage has actually tried to show what an in-game altercation actually looks, sounds, and feels like to those involved when a game goes to shit. I’m going to walk you through the…

Ronda Rousey Is No Match for Holly Holm in Modded Street Fighter, Either

The Street Fighter version of the Ronda Rousey/Holly Holm fight isn’t quite as bloody as the real thing. Still really quick, though.

How Binding of Isaac Fans Ended Up Digging Holes in Santa Ana, California

Last time we checked on The Binding of Isaac community, a glitch caused people to believe the game’s missing content was part of a giant conspiracy. Instead, it was just a glitch.
