This is a video of paleontologist Danielle Dufault of Animalogic discussing the unique physiology of the red-lipped batfish. Not to be confused with a batman, this multi-species named mutant has a beard, bioluminescent horn, and little front leg-fins it uses to walk along the bottom of the seafloor. See? Nothing
This is a video of an AgiBot Expedition A3 humanoid robot packing itself in its travel case. Does it look like a pleasure model while it’s folding itself up? Of course it does, this thing had pleasure-bot written all over it even before it was grabbing its buttcheeks with its
This is a video from South Korea of an actor portraying Jesus ascending via crane during an Easter celebration. Then ascending some more. Then some more. Then some more. I’m not sure if he made it all the way to heaven or not, but he was definitely close. Was this

This is a video demonstration of the Roadrunner bipedal robot developed by the Robotics and AI Institute. The 33-pound robot looks like a pair of dismembered robotic legs with wheels for feet, presumably because that’s exactly what it is. It can roll around with its wheels oriented straight ahead or
Electricity: it’s terrifying. And to prove that point, this is a video of electrical engineer Greg Leyh turning one of his giant Tesla coils (because who can have just one?) into a targeted high-voltage plasma cannon. It’s like a mini Death Star. He then tests the ray on a model
