I’m not a whiskey drinker but if I were, this is the kind I would drink. Says Ben of MasterOfMalt.com of the creation, “Now, for [distillery] Aultmore, I searched high and low, asked all and sundry for interesting stories, facts or legends surrounding the distillery and turned up precisely nothing. So you’ve got this. A Velociraptor fighting a shark.” Apparently the design is part of a series of limited edition whiskies with comic book style label art. As for the artist he said, “She’s a comic book artist based in Glasgow.” If anyone knows her name, let us know, she deserves a high-five. Edit: Success! The artist is Emily Chappell. Her work can be found here.

Shark Week is almost upon us! This song, written by Marian Call and Patrick Race, should be playing every hour on the hour until then.

Penny Palfrey, a 49-year-old endurance swimmer, had set out to complete a record-breaking 107-mile swim from Cuba to the Florida Keys. But what set this feat apart from your typical 107-mile swim is that this one was taking place in shark-infested waters. And Palfrey was going to accomplish this without the protection of a shark cage. Around midnight, she cut her swim short with about 26 miles to go, but seriously, can we really call this woman a slouch? Really? Yeah, I didn’t think so.

The New York Times has brought something wonderful to my attention. There’s a woman who’s akin to Jane Goodall (primate researcher extraordinaire)…but with sharks. Considering sharks aren’t known to charm humans very often, Rachel Graham has an uphill battle to protect them.

It’s here, guys. Shark Week. That midsummer tradition, provided to us by the Discovery Channel, kicks off tonight at 9:00 pm with this year’s formidable host, Chief Shark Officer Andy Samberg. We are happy to know that this shoot was successful and that he has all his limbs. Because sharks, man. Sharks.

This is one of those clips that isn’t exactly brand new, but has been flying under the radar for some reason. In this clip from 1999′s Shadow of the Shark, Valerie Taylor (an Australian shark expert) is seen hand-feeding a shark. She talks about the understanding they have, and how that understanding prevents the Great White Shark from leaping out of the water and turning her into chum. It is both sweet and terrifying, and it will soon be turned into a rebooted Jaws movie by Steven Spielberg — “He’s back … and he’s nice.”

Because teenagerdom is a mess, but some people handle it better than others.
Did you watch the 2013 Academy Awards? Here's our take on the geekiest moments of the show.

"SHARKS. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the uterus." - A thing I just said in chat, sans context.
Susana Polo
In a perfect world, that would make those men MORE sympathetic to women when they talk about objectification of women in media.
Susana Polo
But really the take away from this is that two seconds of quickly covered up Chris Hemsworth stomach makes some men feel objectified.
Susana Polo
Good to know that a broad trend across much of visual media has effected one man, in one shot. We can all go home, sexism is over.
Susana Polo
Whenever we bring up objectification of women in modern action movies, people always bring up the one shot of Chris Hemsworth shirtless.

Just saw a #FF tweet that listed me next to Joss Whedon, so, yeah, I'll take that.

I linked to dramatic hamster twice in one post. I think my work here is done.

Somebody thinks I'm a hypocrite for disliking the Merida redesign and supporting a Wonder Woman show at the same time. ¯\(°_o)/¯

If we can get Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, can I get a Gatsby retelling where he's not just new money… he's a vampire?

Tell me that somebody, somewhere, has written Gandalf M-preg fanfic with the title "A Wizard is Never Late."

The Voyager crew is in 1996 LA. Also Ed Begley and Sarah Silverman are there. I LOVE IT when Star Trek does cheesy time travel.
