This is a small series of concept art created by Disney artists while The Child was being developed for The Mandalorian. As you can see, they definitely chose the best option, and whoever designed the one above should have been fired on the spot and had their handns broken so they can never draw again.

Keep going for five more.

This is the throw pillow available from snwball’s Redbubble store that looks like a lithium-ion battery that’s expanded and ready to blow. Available in a variety of sizes from 16″ x 16″ to 26″ x 26″, it can be purchased as a cover only or with pillow insert, and prices range from $22 to $55. I’m going to get a couple for my couch and wait for my roommate to see them. “The same roommate who had a lithium-ion battery explode on him and now can’t even text without flinching?” I bet he runs screaming.

Thanks to Kent, who agrees smoke should come out when you squeeze it.

This is a video of engineer and Youtuber Daniel de Bruin constructing a tiny marble machine from scratch that’s only big enough for a little ball bearing to ride. Obviously, this is the perfect unit to own in the event a marble machine loving friend of yours goes to prison, because you could easily sneak this into them in that ass of yours. “Excuse me?” Here, why don’t you take this Newton’s Cradle too?

In it may be time for another Mother Nature intervention news, this is a short video from scientist Steve Mould highlighting the life of the the gum-leaf skeletoniser (Uraba lugens), a moth that while in caterpillar form wears all of its previously shed exoskeletal heads in a stack on its current head. Per Wikipedia while I crack open a Friday brunch beer:

Uraba lugens is nicknamed the mad hatterpillar because of its distinctive exoskeletal feature. Every time it sheds the head portion of its exoskeleton, the exoskeleton stays attached to its body. Over time, developing through its life span, the head grows bigger and sheds increasingly larger exoskeleton shells, which build upon each other.

Crazy, right? “Totally nuts.” Mother Nature is a TRIP. Like how does she even come up with this stuff — watching horror movies? You know she actually invited me over for movie night a couple weekends ago but I declined because I figured she was just gonna play the popcorn trick on me again. “Wait — again?” I’m not sure what I touched the first four times, but it wasn’t unpopped kernels.

Keep going for the video.

This is The Beatles’ 1966 classic ‘Eleanor Rigby’ but with all notes either E or F. It sounds the way you’d expect a song to sound like when you’re on drugs. Wait *violently swipes bowl of cereal off kitchen table* did somebody drug me?! Honey how could you?! “It was easy, I just opened the bottle and poured it over your cereal when you were getting a spoon.” What have you done! “Relax, it was just an anti-diarrheal.” Oh so you heard that, huh? You’re so good to me.

Keep going for the song as well as a 2015 remaster for reference.

This is a recording of a computer screen playing some security cam footage (my favorite kind of video) of a farmer moving some produce with a forklift when he sets off a domino effect of falling boxes. The rest is a hat-stomping cartoon style temper tantrum. Clearly, somebody needs to give baby his bottle. And by baby I mean Old MacDonald here, and by bottle I mean Jim Beam. Let’s get him drunk and roll him down a hill.

Because KFC, being Taco Bell’s sister company and clearly making calls from the same Think Outside The Box playbook, has announced the release of Kentacos in their Singapore restaurants. Kentacos are tacos with a flattened fried chicken fillet for a shell and “loaded up with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, cheese sauce [Emmental, Romano and cheddar], lettuce and tomatoes.” Will they make their way to the rest of the world? I’m not sure, but I guarantee there are a lot of Americans waiting with bated, labored breath.

Keep going for a short Instagram video highlighting the ingredients.

Because Star Wars everything (and I do mean absolutely everything), this is the space slug desk organizer available from Regal Robot. The officially licensed exogorth is cast in solid resin, hand painted, includes a black pencil with millennium falcon pencil topper and costs $99. *spit-takes Minute Maid Tropical Punch* My God — $99?! Contrary to what my roommate just commented as he looked over my shoulder as I wrote this, you should not put your penis in the worm’s mouth. Although, if we’re being completely honest, now I’m really starting to wonder how you’re going to get your $99 worth otherwise.

Keep going for a few more shots.

These are the ‘Hockey Mask’ personal protection masks being crafted and sold by renowned horror special effects makeup artist and King Of Splatter Tom Savini (who worked on both the original 1980 Friday the 13th and Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter)
and Jason Baker (a visual effects artist on The Dark Knight Rises, DM him for sales). The half masks include a fabric interior to help prevent the spread of airborne particulate and cost $60. If you want one signed by Tom then it costs $100. Still, can you really put a price on making sure everyone in public turns around and runs the other way when they see you?

Keep going for a few more shots, including the man himself wearing one.

These are the social distancing crowns created by Burger King Germany. Each cardboard crown extends in a three foot radius around a wearer’s head so that patrons are reminded to keep their distance from each other as the restaurants begin to resume dine-in service. Apparently Burger Kings in Italy are taking a different approach by selling Social Distancing Whoppers, which have three times the regular amount of onions on them. LOL, that’ll certainly keep people away! And vampires. “That’s garlic.” I hate being so stupid. I remember when I was a kid I would always beg my parents to take me to Burger King so I could get a cardboard crown but they convinced me they’ll only give you one on your birthday, presumably to crush my spirit and/or prepare me for the harsh reality of adulthood. Then on my birthday neither one would feel like driving.

Thanks to hairless, who informed me it’s easy to keep six feet away from other people because he just has to imagine two penis-lengths. Haha, just 1.5 for me.
