They say that art is subjective, and that everyone is a critic. One person can look at Vincent van Gogh’s Starry Night and be struck by its beauty. Another can look, and feel nothing towards it. While attacking a work of art with a pastry might seem like a bit of an extreme reaction to anything, someone has done exactly that to one of the most iconic paintings in history. We’re talking of course about Leonardo DaVinci’s Mona Lisa, being smeared with cake. On May 29th, a young man disguised himself as an old woman, wearing a wig and lipstick,…

The level of affection the internet collectively has for cats knows no bounds. So when the world needs a dose of cuteness, we can always turn to cats.For a change of pace, Florida has provided us with that needed dose instead of something bizarre. The Fish & Wildlife Foundation of the sunshine state posted the long awaited reunion of a mother panther and her cub. It is just as wholesome as you’d hope. Back in March, a young panther cub became separated from its mother. Generally, cubs stay with their mother for up to a year. But when this youngling…

It’s funny how when something is first released, we can overlook its mistakes, flaws, and shortcomings. Maybe it’s because we’re just awed by how new and different it is. Or, if it’s something from our past, maybe we were just too young to notice the issues. Either way, it’s always a gamble of sorts when you revisit things after a period of absence to see how they hold up. In this case of classic video games, some times an older title doesn’t maintain its quality purely because of limitations at the time. In other cases, it’s because they were just…

A moth that hasn’t been seen since 1912 was found in a mans luggage when he came back from the Philippines.

It sounds like the start of a fantasy novel but it’s absolutely real. A secret forest was found in a sinkhole in China

He’s been bringing us music for 40 years alongside a cult classic film, and short-lived Saturday morning tv show. But now, America’s greatest son “Weird”Al” Yankovic will be appearing in his very own graphic novel. It may have taken 4/10ths of a century but the pop culture legend and musical parody master will soon be appearing on the illustrated page. Thanks to a team-up between “Weird Al” and Z2 Comics, a number of Yankovic’s songs will be brought to life in a brand new way. “Illustrated Al: The Songs of “Weird Al” Yankovic” is a collection of several artists’ interpretations…

In Disney’s “The Little Mermaid,” Sebastian the Crab tries to make the case to Ariel that “everything’s better, down where it’s wetter… under the sea.” He cites a number of underwater creatures that play instruments, and are just pleasant to hang around. Ariel chooses not to listen, and goes for a life on land. She probably would’ve left even before the song started if he told her about a different set of aquatic dwellers; volcano sharks. Granted, a volcano shark does sound like a Pokémon, but that’s because it’s not actually what these oceanic creatures are called. Within the Solomon…

What can anyone say about the late, great, George Carlin that hasn’t already been said? Who would you get to say it? Directors Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio seemed to have those questions in their minds when they created the two-part documentary “George Carlin’s American Dream.” Across approximately three and a half hours, the film covers the entirety of Carlin’s life, from his troubled homelife, to his last days. And to ensure that it had something interesting to say, and someone interesting to say it, much of the story is told by Carlin himself. There’s nothing particularly groundbreaking or novel…
