This is a short video of golden retriever Moose playing hide-and-seek with caretaker Shane when he spots him in the bathroom mirror and looks confused. It’s funny, my dogs always looks at me in the mirror but never look at themselves. It’s like they don’t even recognize themselves as themselves,

To celebrate his 76th birthday, this is a video of Rubik’s Cube artist BigWendy creating a portrait of Erno Rubik while blindfolded, using those tactile Rubik’s Cubes.

Note: Keep your volume in check, my dogs still went crazy. This is a video from a group of scuba divers in the Bahamas as they repeatedly get pinged by a nearby Arleigh Burke-class destroyer’s sonar. That doesn’t sound like a very pleasant experience. And imagine how the mermaids must
