Krypto is, without a doubt, one of the best things about James Gunn's Superman, which is not surprising since he is based on Gunn's own dog, Ozu. Krypto, as Superman points out, 'not a very good [dog],' but he is adorable and still a good boi, despite a lack of training from ...

Premier Vladimir Putin's bodyguards carry a 'poop suitcase,' it is alleged, so that the Russian state can maintain custody of his potentially-revealing excrement on his travels. Putin's health is often the subject of media intrigue. Though only 72, not particularly old...

The Oxford and Cambridge dictionaries of English compete every year to find the most credible but sensational words to add. Oxford went with 'brain rot' this year, and Cambridge is all on on just that: 'Tradwife', 'delulu' and 'skibidi' are its latest additions. — Read the re...

It's been 43 years since the first Comact Discs were pressed in 1982, ushering in an age of vastly superior fidelity ruined by slapdash remastering. The first official pressing on the new optical medium was Abba's The Visitors, one of the biggest vinyl LPs of the year,...

The Old Tonopah Cemetery  in Nevada has a dark history, made even creepier by the fact that it is currently located next to a clown-themed motel. This century-old cemetery was established in 1901 during Tonopah's earliest days as a mining town with roughly 300 permanent...

We recently reported on the Louisiana Department of Health's warning about Vibrio vulnificus, the flesh-eating bacteria that Boing Boing's Séamus Bellamy so beautifully describes as 'living its best life in the waters slopping up against the beaches of America's east...

This video feels like a goth version of every Disney princess-and-critter scene: a cool, stylish human and an adorable raven trading songs and snuggles. The bird is so relaxed it's obvious they've been friends for ages. If a raven ever chose me like that, I'd feel like the...
