Back with another song (and the addition of a robotic singing head), the One Hacker Band (previously seen performing ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’, still with Kirby trapped in the bass drum) makes its intentions known with a rendition of Tears for Fears’ ‘Everybody Wants To Rule The World’. Robots, it’s talking about robots — robots want to rule thew world. Not that it should come as any surprise, movies have been trying to warn us for years. But have we been listening? Noooooo, and now we have ChatGPT-4, which is both writing this article and trying to stab me at the same time.

Keep going for the video, as well as the robotic head singing Radiohead’s ‘Creep’, because it clearly is one.

This is a video of a Barcelona puppeteer with a next-level control rig (check out those finger controls!) getting his frog puppet to play the piano, with absolutely stunning results. Just watch, it’s wild. And trust me, I know a thing about wild — I’ve been around the block. Both sexually and otherwise, but mostly just sexually. To be honest I’ve hardly left the porch related to most other things.

Keep going for both a day and night performance.

In hold my beer news, this is a video of Scottish cyclist Danny MacAskill (previously) riding his bike across the length of a tennis net. What is he, practicing to be an extreme ball boy or something? Because that would make tennis a lot more exciting to watch. Right now the only thing to get excited about is players smashing rackets and yelling at the umpire, which happens far too infrequently for me to ever justify watching tennis.

This is a video of Youtuber Sabatkay Projects constructing and testing a relatively simple rifle he built that shoots knives like a slingshot. It doesn’t seem too complicated, which means I’ll probably try building my own this weekend, with far less impressive, but far more dangerous results. “I’ll warm up the car and familiarize myself with the quickest route to the hospital.” Love you, honey!

This is a video from a recent rugby match between Brisbane and Melbourne at The Gabba stadium in Brisbane when all the lights go out due to a bulb catching fire. How exciting! Was this part of a plot to undermine the fairness of the game and win massive bets? In my mind it was. I mean Australia was founded as a penal colony.

This is a side-by-side comparison posted by new mom Dani Grier Mulvenna, who commented how much her baby looks like Woody Harrelson. Then Woody caught wind of the post and wrote baby Cora a poem. How precious is that? They do look insanely similar. “I’ll call Maury.” Nah, call Woody instead and ask him just how high he is right now, I’m curious.

Thanks to Allyson S, for reminding me Maury Povich and Connie Chung have been married since 1984.
