The Fallout Pip Boy Molded Mug features a vault dweller’s ace-in-the-hole for surviving the wasteland recreated on a ceramic mug. This mug is perfect for the wastelander who doesn’t know when the next time they’ll actually come across a non-irradiated beverage might be, because this thing holds up to 6 cups! What? You thought something as huge as a Pip Boy would be a small form factor? Absolutely not. Authenticity, my friends.
There are a group of parasites extremely disgusting and mean. Humanity declared war on them.

From Thinkgeek:
The Back to the Future Flux Capacitor Wall Charger is modeled after Dr. Emmett Brown’s device that makes time travel possible. This plugs in any standard three-pronged outlet (Type B) and charges devices via USB. When your phone hits 88 percent, you’re gonna see some serious… stuff. Probably pictures of corgis and kittens, but serious stuff nonetheless.

The Internet Archive is to build a back-up copy in Canada. The site’s staff said it was a response to fears of greater online restrictions in the US following the election result.
While the announcement did not specifically name president-elect Donald Trump, it said:
On November 9th in America, we woke up to a new administration promising radical change. It was a firm reminder that institutions like ours, built for the long-term, need to design for change.
For us, it means keeping our cultural materials safe, private and perpetually accessible. It means preparing for a Web that may face greater restrictions.
It means serving patrons in a world in which government surveillance is not going away; indeed it looks like it will increase.
The archive is best known for its collection of more than 150 billion web pages archives across different dates as a historical record. It also contains huge collections of multimedia files including audio, video and software.
Appealing for donations to fund the Canadian back-up, founder Brewster Kahle said one goal was that “no one will ever be able to change the past just because there is no digital record of it.” While he didn’t address specific politicians, Kahle noted the value of the site having a dedicated archive of Political TV ads that journalists could use for fact-checking.
Two couples and their parallel love stories go head to head when Rapunzel and Flynn meet Anna and Kristoff in the eighth installment of WHITNEY AVALON’s wildly popular PRINCESS RAP BATTLE.
Alongside Avalon, this tour de force stars the wonderfully talented ELIZA DUSHKU (Buffy, Dollhouse) as Rapunzel, TOM LENK (Buffy, The Cabin in the Woods) as Flynn, and JAMES MASLOW (Big Time Rush, Sequestered) as Kristoff.
It was about time! People have been asking for an offline viewing option on Netflix for years, and starting today, the company has finally started offering the feature for the smartphone and tablet version of their app.
While many members enjoy watching Netflix at home, we’ve often heard they also want to continue their Stranger Things binge while on airplanes and other places where Internet is expensive or limited. Just click the download button on the details page for a film or TV series and you can watch it later without an internet connection.
Not all movies and TV shows will be available while offline, but those that are, including many of Netflix’s original series, will include a tiny button that indicates “Download now to watch offline later.” The service plans to add more titles that support “offline viewing” in the near future.

This absolutely beautiful Harry Potter Christmas tree was made by Kathryn Burnett and is entirely covered in Harry Potter ornaments, from bottom to top. This is the second time Kathryn has done the tree, and this year, she added even more ornaments to it!
Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the ‘Christmas Lights’.
For those interested, a lot of these ornaments can be purchased from Amazon.com, and an officially licensed version of the sorting hat can be obtained here.
