Things We Saw Today: Pacific Rim Action Figures

If you need something to hold you over until Pacific Rim drops, check out these new action figures. (via Nerdist)

• In the next installment of “this is disgusting, but sadly not surprising in the least”: the chairman of Britan’s far-right “British National Party” tweeted some heinous crap in response to the recent pictures that surfaced of celebrity chef Nigella Lawson getting choked by her husband. UGH. (via The Frisky)
• Female masturbation has been “gamified” to help ease the stigma against discussing it. I’m strangely curious about what, exactly, the game entails. Also the mascot is weirdly cute. (via Gamification.co)
• To add to the illustrious modern contributions the internet has made to the English language, “Tweet” and “dad dancing” are being added to this year’s edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. (via Death and Taxes)

• You would think that, out of all of the amazing GIFs in the vast expanse of the internet, the first one to go space would be something really beautiful, or cool, or fascinating. Possibly informative. Well, the first GIF is being sent into space, and it is really rather boring. Yup. It’s a GIF of a guy scratching his ear. Aliens, I promise we’re not dumb apes, even if this GIF suggests otherwise! (via the Daily Dot)
• Today in “things you never knew you wanted”: this fan-made Sailor Moon brawler looks awesome. Kicking butt in classic Street Fighter fashion as a sailor scout? Sign me up. (via Kotaku)
• Show that your love (or fashion sense) is a self-sustaining power source with this arc reactor ring. If Tony and Pepper get married, this is most definitely her wedding band. (via Fashionably Geek)
