First, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk inspired Robert Downey Jr.'s portrayal of Iron Man. Now, the futuristic design interfaces depicted in the movie trilogy have inspired Musk to create 3D immersive reality visualizations for designing and printing rocket parts on the fly. We've come full circle, people. Reality and fiction are colliding and the outcome is incredible.

Is anyone else disgusted by all those memes on the internet? Me too! So I made some! Introducing #FootballFanProblems

What others can we come up with?

The sexiest blond in popular music could well be sampled on Britney Spear‘s new single. Rumors that RuPaul‘s iconic “Supermodel (You Better Work)” could appear on Brit’s next hit started to swirl when the song’s alleged producer Jean Baptiste posted: “Work, turn to the left, work, now turn to the right, work” on his Facebook wall. He even added “RuPaul voice” as a postscript.

That led to whispers that the track was called “Werk Bitch”, which the flawless drag legend seemed to acknowledge today (September 6) on Twitter. This meeting of beautiful minds is too good to be true. Ru’s musical legacy deserves greater attention and Britney needs to raise the bar after “Ooh La La”. See RuPaul’s tweet after the jump and join me in praying to gay Jesus (ie. Cher) that this actually happens.

Werk Bitch! @BritneySpears

Sigh, why couldn’t we have had Dr. Claudia Diaz in school? The Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology lecturer utilized an unorthodox method to teach her students human anatomy: stripping a hot soccer stud down to his briefs and painting muscles over his muscles.

The stud in question, 22-year-old chiropractic student Zac O’Brien, was paid $500 to sit still for 18 hours as his classmates turned him into the “anatomical man,” using smudge-free body paint.

”Between 3am and 6am was a really hard period where not much happened,” O’Brien told The Age, “then after that we had about 50 nursing students in here.”

Dr. Diaz began the whole “anatomical man” idea in 2010 as a way to get the kids excited about anatomy, and since then students are lining up to strip down. “‘I couldn’t get the kids to keep their clothes on,” Diaz said. “They were all throwing them off.”

Sign us up, Doc.

Artist Juan Ortiz designed a movie-style poster for every episode of the original Star Trek. They're in his new book Star Trek: The Art of Juan Ortiz, but we get a sneak preview of seven of them at Flavorwire, along with Ortiz' comments on each. Link

This birth assistant training aid appears to be a great training tool for birthing, and a great teaching tool. But dear god some of these images are terrifying, especially when it starts spewing out simulated blood and plastic babies.

Tea Party supporters have launched the Twitter hashtag "McCain's other phone games." Sample responses: Grand Theft RINO, Call Of Doody, Angry Old Birds.

In which we learn that tired actors on the last day of shooting will believe anything you tell them, Benedict Cumberbatch regularly signs things without reading them first, and you should never trust the cast member who's primarily known for comedy. Pegg's best prank, though, was the way he put pages from the original Wrath of Khan into the shooting script, and nobody noticed until it was too late, so they tried to keep it a secret as long as possible. That has to be what actually happened, right? Anyway, video after the jump. Continue reading "Watch Simon Pegg Prank His Star Trek Into Darkness Castmates" >

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will become the nation’s first Supreme Court justice to officiate a same-sex ceremony, the Washington Post reports, marrying Kennedy Center President Michael M. Kaiser and economist John Roberts on Saturday.

In June, Ginsburg joined a 5 to 4 ruling striking down a section of the Defense of Marriage Act — which prohibited the federal government from recognizing same-sex unions — and said during oral arguments for the case that the law relegated gays and lesbians to “sort of skim milk marriage.”

“I think it will be one more statement that people who love each other and want to live together should be able to enjoy the blessings and the strife in the marriage relationship,” Ginsburg said of the pending nuptuals during a recent interview. “It won’t be long before there will be another.”

Marriage equality is now legal in DC and 13 other states.

My last post with Matt Schaub as a kangaroo got a good response, so I decided to take things one step further. I don’t know if anyone has ever asked what every QB could look like as their team name, but I decided to answer that very question. Because reasons.

Things started off easy enough. Most of the teams are just animals.

 

 

But after the animals end, things start to get a little harder. It’s not too bad, many of the remaining mascots are human in nature.

Then things started getting really abstract.

Now I know why no one ever asked that question.
