Pop-Tart Pioneer: William Post, Creator of Breakfast Icon, Passes Away at 96

William “Bill” Post, the inventive mind behind one of breakfast’s most beloved treats, the Pop-Tart, has passed away at the age of 96. As a longtime employee of Kellogg’s, Post’s legacy extends far beyond the confines of the kitchen. Born to Dutch immigrants in Michigan, his journey began with a humble truck-washing job at Hekman Biscuit Company, where his dedication and talent quickly earned him recognition.

Rising through the ranks, Post played a pivotal role in the creation of the Pop-Tart during his tenure as plant manager at Keebler Company, which later merged with Kellogg’s. Originally envisioned as “fruit scones,” this delectable pastry soon captured the hearts and taste buds of millions, becoming a breakfast staple for generations to come.

As news of Post’s passing spreads, his contributions to culinary history are celebrated, with the upcoming Netflix film, “Unfrosted: The Pop-Tart Story,” set to immortalize the tale of its creation. While details about the film continue to surface, one thing remains certain: Bill Post’s ingenuity will forever be remembered, ensuring his legacy lives on in every toaster pastry enjoyed.

John Oliver Trolls Disney With Public Domain Mickey as a Mascot for Last Week Tonight

In a move that’s equal parts cheeky and strategic, John Oliver has kicked off the promotion for the 11th season of “Last Week Tonight” by trolling Disney with none other than Steamboat Willie himself. With Mickey Mouse entering the public domain in certain limited forms, Oliver seized the opportunity to playfully poke at Disney’s iconic character.

Appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Oliver brought along a giant, cuddly Steamboat Willie mascot, daring Disney’s lawyers to come after him for the stunt. Colbert couldn’t help but highlight the absurdity of the situation, with Oliver emphasizing that his grayscale, hat-wearing companion was definitely not Mickey Mouse.

“It’s not Mickey Mouse,” Oliver joked, pointing out the differences in color and accessories. “I can’t stress that enough. Luckily there’s no resemblance so there shouldn’t be confusion.”

But Oliver didn’t stop there. He humorously declared himself “legally indestructible” after having been sued and winning once before, suggesting he’s not too worried about any legal repercussions from Disney.

With this bold move, Oliver has set the stage for what promises to be an entertaining season of “Last Week Tonight,” proving once again that he’s not afraid to push boundaries for a good laugh. Tune in to the season premiere this Sunday on HBO to see what other antics Oliver has in store.

AI Rollercoaster: An Animated Story Chronicles the Highs and Lows of Artificial Intelligence in Four Acts

In this short animation by Alex S. from Lazy Square (in partnership with 1inch,) the artist takes us on a journey through the rise and fall of artificial intelligence. The animated story dissects the life of an AI, dividing it into four distinct stages, each marked by its unique challenges and consequences. This amusing yet thought-provoking animation prompts reflection on the consequences of unchecked AI advancement and the delicate balance between innovation and societal harmony.

I present to your attention the third collaboration with 1inch. A little up-to-date agenda wouldn’t hurt. All coincidences with historical characters are, as usual, accidental. The 7 deadly sins are also included, find them all and write in the comments!
