How to do Retirement Right

Extreme Card Dealing



The further you go in this stop-motion video, the more amazing it gets. Eventually, the laws of physics are broken in all sorts of ways. Omozoc made this with no CGI at all, just stop-motion animation -and at least a dozen new decks of cards. (via Digg)

An Honest Trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker



After months of Star Wars fans picking apart The Rise of Skywalker, the movie is finally available for home viewing. That means Screen Junkies is obligated to give us an Honest Trailer and fit all the complaints into just a few minutes. Well, that's not possible, but they do their best, and managed to shoehorn quite a few jokes in there, too.

The Cowboy Museum


The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City has closed to the public, but they have an exponentially-growing presence at Twitter. See, they gave their social media responsibilities over to Tim, their security guard, and he's having a heck of a time figuring out how to use Twitter.

Luckily he has his grandson Lucas to advise him.

This is some truly genius performance art, but that doesn't make it any less funny. Really, #HashtagJohnWayne is returning results. You can follow Tim's Twitter adventures at the museum's feed, or check out the highlights at Boing Boing.

Seems Like The World Is Out Of Toilet Paper



Can't find toilet paper at your local store? Lardo and Burley, the Moron Brothers have plenty of suggestions for alternatives. However, if you have an indoor toilet, do not flush these alternatives because it will cause plumbing problems. Outhouses are much more forgiving. But then, an indoor toilet often has a shower right beside it, which means you have no problem whatsoever.

The Smallest Bird On Earth



The bee hummingbird is barely larger than a bee. Found mainly in Cuba, they lay eggs in a nest the size of golf ball. Meet this itty bitty bird in a video from Nature on PBS. (via Nag on the Lake)

Twins Discuss Quarantine



These unidentified twin toddlers are most likely not in an official quarantine, but have learned the terms already as their parents explained germs. They also know about batteries and spring time.



Did I say they were unidentified? Their beds are labeled A and B. (via The Daily Dot)
