Two massive, massive Marvel movies are set to release in 2026, and, according to two massive, massive actors, they may not be included. This week, both Mark Ruffalo and Ryan Reynolds downplayed rumors of their appearances in next year’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday, respectively, but we aren’t quite buying it. To recap, earlier this year, news broke that Mark Ruffalo would be returning as Hulk in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, set for release July 31, 2026. That has yet to be of

Climate Experts Roast Joe Rogan After He Misinterprets Simple Graph to Claim Earth Is Cooling

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-11-20 08:27:47

Podcaster and former UFC commentator Joe Rogan isn’t exactly known for his scientific expertise, but Rogan’s recent claim that the Earth is cooling—ignoring decades of empirical evidence for global warming—is so egregious that climate experts are straight up roasting him for it. In several recent episodes of The Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan has used a temperature graph in a Washington Post article in order to claim that global temperatures are actually plummeting.

Prehistoric Skull Found Fused to Cave Wall May Have Belonged to Mysterious Ancient Hominid

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-11-20 08:56:20

In 1960, a villager found something terrifyingly creepy in Greece’s Petralona cave—a humanoid cranium with a protrusion on its forehead, fused to the cave wall. Since then, researchers have been trying to date the strange specimen and understand how it got there, but these efforts so far have yielded only a frustratingly broad age range of between around 170,000 and 700,000 years. The skull’s ambiguous stratigraphic position is also less than helpful. So a team of researchers took a slightly di
