This is a video of self proclaimed science enthusiast and race car driver Chris Rollins constructing and testing the world’s fastest garbage can, a 12HP trike in a green plastic bin that manages to hit a blistering 63MPH. Now, I’m not sure who needs to hear this, but that is
This is a very appropriate sounding bardcore cover of REM’s 1991 banger ‘Losing My Religion’, performed by Algal The Bard (previously). The bardcore version works very well, and if I were listening to this in a medieval tavern I wouldn’t hesitate to toss a silver coin into Algal’s lute case,
This is a video of Theo Jansen’s latest Strandbeest: a caterpillar that’s pulled behind another wind-powered mechanical sculpture, inch-worming its way across the sand.

Because there’s zero chance of ever forgetting this is the internet, here’s a video of musician Bob Strachan performing Coolio’s ‘Gansta’s Paradise’ to the tune of Johnny Cash’s ‘Folsom Prison Blues’. It works surprisingly well. I can’t say I’m shocked, but I did wake up this morning in the backyard
