Morning Coffee

We are all stealing each others romantic partners and no one is happy about it. The dead have secrets. Furthermore: did the Romans believe in ghosts? Let’s all look at some historical visualizations of the universe. In case you were…

It’s Halloween so that means it’s time for Cooking with Vince Price and haunted amusement parks. This guide to cemetery symbolism will probably come in handy too. Maybe you want some werewolf art too? Also some new (spooky?) frogs were…

We’re just finding all sorts of lost things these days; hey look it’s (a part of) Amelia Earhart’s plane. San Francisco has ghosts too! The world was tragically denied electroplated corpse sculptures. I don’t care what you say, windowless planes…

Why yes, science CAN bring back a 700-year-old caribou poop virus. Chris Hadfield’s (from) space pictures (are great). Here come the lifeguard drones. Can you really feel the weather in your bones? Seriously dudes, this sunspot is nuts.

We all wish we could go to Space City USA sometimes. Today seems like a good day to talk about New York’s urban legends. Abandoned mental hospital cemeteries are sort of the best/most terrifying things. Buckminster Fuller in Modern Mechanix.…

Mondays are for animal things I guess. Here comes the Jesus snake. Climate change is shrinking mountain goats. I bet you’re wondering right now: how do mantarays eat? Baby sea turtles are the REAL heroes here. Invertebrates are pretty neat!

I wish more than anything I could go to a 19th Century world’s fair. Let’s all take a look inside Gaudi’s unfinished masterpiece. Pity the poor Deinocheirus. Finally a positive story about ice melt. This is what it looks like…

There was a time when people were pretty sure birds migrated to the moon. Important news: some people don’t use the internet late at night. (It is almost Halloween) how to sell a haunted house. The trials and tribulations of…

The darkest timeline: there was a time when people called it “blunch”. Have you checked out NASA’s Soundcloud page lately? It has everything a nerdy 10 year old could possibly want. The time has come to build an internet out…

We try to keep this free of politics as much as possible, but right now seems like a good time to remember just how horribly Reagan handled the AIDS crisis. Long story short: all astronauts should be women. On a…

To be honest with you, we have no idea who Jack the Ripper was. A brief history of spinning buildings. Science used to be so much more whimsical and Mars burning-focused. Yeah but drones ARE pretty good at filming orca…

Maybe killer whales and dolphins are talking to each other? Maybe a lot of things. Hey but also, whales just wish we would quiet down. The question is: what is the worst way to die (scientifically speaking)? Important news: vikings…
