WILL IT BE "THEIR SONG"?

A taxi driver, in Dublin, saw himself blocked with the car when he turned on a street where a party was taking place. One of the girls who was there, dancing Get Lucky, invites him to dance...
Either was that or run over everybody.



The proposal the taxi driver did to her at the end? Interesting.

This couple had their song too, but they were too drunk to remember it.

ARMORED QUAD

If weapons didn’t exist, this wouldn’t be necessary. But since they do, we have to build something that can withstand them. And so we keep going—always one step ahead, or maybe just one step back.
It begs the question: are we really progressing, or just caught in an endless cycle of attack and defense?

BORN IN RUSSIA

Being born here or there, into a rich or poor family, is so incredibly random that sometimes we forget just how much life resembles a roll of the dice—one we don't even get to throw ourselves. Think about it: coming into this world is literally the universe’s biggest lottery, and it's absurd how something we have absolutely zero control over defines us from day one.

Some people land straight into mansions with swimming pools, surrounded by privileges they never even asked for. Others are born between bare walls and leaking roofs, facing limited chances from the moment they open their eyes. And here's the kicker: no one earned the conditions they're born into. There’s no merit, no initial effort—just pure chance.

Whether we're born lucky or unlucky massively shapes our paths: education, health, opportunities, even our dreams and aspirations. Sure, there are those who preach that "where there’s a will, there’s a way," but reality is much harsher. Our randomly assigned starting point can either turbocharge our lives or slam on the brakes right from the start.

HOW THEY'RE MADE

You see them every day, silently waiting for you to choose. You approach them, size them up, take a deep breath, and pick the ones that motivate you the most—and from that moment, there’s no turning back. They’re part of your daily routine, helping you grow stronger and push your limits. But behind these workout companions you grip so firmly lies a story you've never imagined. Have you ever wondered how they're made, or how they come into existence?

AI-GENERATED NIGHTMARES

david
They’re not dreams — but they easily could be. AI has learned how to recreate that visual chaos we feel in our nightmares: eerie settings, twisted figures, movements that defy logic, and that strange unease you can’t quite explain… but definitely feel. And the scariest part? It’s really good at it.

THE GENDER PAY GAP EXPLAINED IN A SINGLE VIDEO

david
We’ve all heard about the infamous "gender pay gap": that sinister conspiracy where men supposedly earn more "for doing exactly the same job," because obviously, the evil patriarchy just loves paying women less out of sheer cruelty, keeping them firmly under its thumb—despite the fact that this practice is literally illegal in almost every developed country.

But fine, let’s play along with that idea for a moment: men earn more ON AVERAGE than women, but honestly, have you ever stopped to think why men statistically take home higher salaries? Or do you just buy into it because it’s a mantra repeated endlessly? Maybe—just maybe—it’s because men are out there freezing their asses off on deep-sea fishing boats, getting tossed around by violent storms, handling chains heavier than your car, or sweating away on oil rigs and construction sites, risking their lives every single day. Perhaps it’s related to voluntarily choosing insanely dangerous, physically exhausting, and generally miserable jobs that pay better precisely because no sane person would do them willingly.

So yes, ladies and gentlemen, a pay gap certainly exists. And it seems firmly located in places where most people wouldn't set foot for a million dollars, let alone for 20 or 30 grand a month. But sure, go ahead and keep believing the gap is just the patriarchy flexing its muscles from comfy offices.

And this, dear friends, is the cold, wet, gritty truth behind the famous pay gap.

SUPERMAN: LEGACY

There was a time, back in the '90s, when going to the movies felt like a weekend ritual. Every Friday brought new and varied releases. There was always something that grabbed your attention—maybe a wild comedy, an action flick full of explosions, or a story that hit you right in the feels. Not every movie was a masterpiece, but most of them did the job: they entertained you, made you laugh, pulled you in. And the best part? You walked out of the theater feeling like it was worth it, like you hadn't been ripped off. (Back then, 4 euros got you a ticket, popcorn, and a drink.)

Nowadays, though, it’s hard to find something that actually makes you want to pay for the big screen experience. Weeks can go by without a single release that doesn’t feel recycled, predictable, or just plain boring. I don’t know if it’s me getting pickier, the industry running out of ideas and cash, or a mix of both. But in this case, it really does feel like the “good old days” weren’t just nostalgia—things really were better back then.

DC just dropped a nearly five-minute clip on YouTube featuring David Corenswet as Superman, along with his dog, Krypto. The video shows a wounded Superman in a frozen, icy setting.
