Suriviving Progress is a documentary about the double-edged sword of human advancement and the certain end that faces us all, unless we commit to use less and produce only what is needed.

And we thought Maru only liked boxes. Apparently we were wrong. In fact, the world’s most popular cat doesn’t seems to love paper bags just as much – and the more humiliating the situation, the better.

Junaid Chundrigar’s tribute to old American cartoons. The lesson? Instead of getting married, get some sheep and take care of them. They’ll take you to places beyond your wildest acid trip. Or not.

Maybe the whole Pied Piper story had a bit of truth to it, as is evidenced by the crowd of bovines who gather round for a Dixieland jazz performance by The New Hot 5. Next time, start marching.

The voice prompts are quite annoying (“He’s right there!”) but the gunfire, explosions and your maniacal laughter as you and your buddy combo enemies should drown those out.

More than 150 supercars and exotic rides ended up in a bit of a jam as they headed out to the Wilton House Supercar Day. This is probably what an ordinary day in Monaco’s streets looks like.

YouTuber timeyodie impersonates 34 characters from Star Wars, from an Ewok to a spot-on take on Ewan MacGregor’s Obi Wan. The exaggerated expressions help sell his act. Part Two here.
