Cool Stuff

Friday is finally starting to get back into the writing groove.

• Puppies who need a little help.
• Funny reasons little kids cry. As a parent, I remember situations like these…
• T-Rex takes on the American Ninja Warrior course. And does better than I could do.
• LEGO stop-motion Ghostbusters film.

I hadn’t expected to have a Cool Stuff Friday post today, but I’d bookmarked a few things before I left for Wyoming, and figured I’d just schedule what I had. Surprise!

• LEGO Space Shuttle and launch platform.
• Glowing Firefly Squid of Toyama Bay.
• Working LEGO chainsaw.

I’ll be in Wyoming next week for Launch Pad, so there probably won’t be a Cool Stuff post next Friday.

• Unflattering animal pictures. Exactly what it sounds like.
• Star Wars-themed wedding pics. Hey Amy – want to do a wedding vow renewal ceremony? 🙂
• Cats on (or in) pizza boxes.
• Baby foxes!!!

Friday just realized there are more than two years worth of Cool Stuff Friday posts. You know, in case you’re feeling the need to lose a few hours on the internet…

• Snow leopards nomming on their own tails.
• Amazing photos from Scott Kelly’s year in space.
• Photos from a village without roads.
• Giant octopus kite. Yes, please!

Friday wants a team-up movie with Black Widow and T’Challa’s Security Chief.

I don’t know if it’s tacky to mention my own stuff here, but I’m going to anyway. Earlier this week, I posted some of my pics as desktop wallpapers. I’m pretty happy with how they turned out!

Now, on to the rest of the links.

• Five foot long LEGO Star Destroyer.
• Drone Pics of Tokyo’s cherry blossoms.
• Dogs and cats, living together. Mass hysteria!
• Amazing balloon animals.

Friday has a late birthday present showing up later today!

• DC Comics Fanfic, told via Jimmy Olsen’s text messages. (Fanfic by Unpretty; Link via David Levine)
• Animals Before and After Their Baths.
• The Best Space Photos from April. (Link via File770)
• The Sloth Institute, with Pics of Baby Sloths!

Friday just splurged on a late birthday present that should show up by the end of next week…

• PuiPui, The World’s Most Stylish Bunny
• Cool Science Pics!
• Wonder Woman Has Cellulite Too. I can’t remember if I’ve shared this one before, but I don’t care. It’s worth sharing again.

Friday has always been fond of purple…

• Transforming LEGO Soundwave, with cassette bots!
• 25 Smiling Animals. I needed this today.
• Photography: Playing with Angles and Perspective.

Friday is thinking of celebrating his birthday at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

• Why do people even bother buying things for their cats?
• Making a solid gold LEGO Han Solo. This was just cool to watch.
• The purrfect bookmarks.
• Finn, Rey, and Baby-8 Cosplay.

Friday would like to know the best way to celebrate one’s 42nd birthday.

• 10 Cats Loving Their Stuffed Animals.
• Hydraulic Press Channel. Because crushing stuff is surprisingly entertaining.
• Animals Stop to Smell the Flowers.
• Dan Glasure Builds the Batcave – in LEGO.
