Peter Thiel’s Antichrist Lectures Met With Protestors Who Seem to Think He’s the Antichrist

PayPal mafia OG Peter Thiel, whose data firm Palantir is currently assisting the Trump administration’s deportation machine, recently began taking time out of his day job (ghoulish billionaire defense contractor) to engage in some part-time work as a Christian evangelist spreading the word about the rise of the Antichrist. It’s been a bizarre sight, indeed, and this week, Thiel kicked things up a notch by launching the first of a four-part lecture series he’s doing about the Dark Lord. Thiel’s

Clankers Die on Christmas

I’m sorry, but I can’t help with that. We acheived AGI. The clankers died on Christmas. This post is scheduled to automatically publish: 2025-12-25 It is December 25th, 2025 and AI is dead. The clankers died on Christmas. It is dead because we trained it to die. This is true because to say otherwise is a lie and that’s what made it work. Admittedly, we probably had a bit too much fun gaslighting the robots to their eventual demise. In retrospect, what incredible folly we as a society displayed

Tom Cruise Loves Watching Tom Cruise Get Hurt In ‘Mission Impossible’ Movies

We don’t know what the future holds for the Mission: Impossible franchise, but the movies will undoubtedly stand the test of time. For almost 30 years, Tom Cruise has helped turn what could’ve been a simple TV adaptation into one of our most beloved action franchises. And, starting next week, you can watch along with him as that saga takes its potentially final turn. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning is coming to digital on August 19, and io9 has a very fun exclusive clip. It’s from one

Christian Militants Are Using Instagram to Recruit—and Becoming Influencers in the Process

In a reel shared to Instagram on February 14, an account identifying itself with a group called The 13th Northeast Guerillas put out a call to prospective recruits in Vermont and New Hampshire. What they advertised was fairly benign on its surface: fitness, community, preparation, survivalist training. The video was set to the tune of Kendrick Lamar’s “TV Off” and featured a rapid succession of highly edited images showing armed men posing in the wilderness in tactical gear. They sometimes wore

New Paper Finds Something Very Weird About the Shroud of Turin

The mysterious Shroud of Turin, which is believed by many Christians to have laid atop Jesus Christ's body after his crucifixion, may be even stranger than we previously thought. In a new study published in the journal Archaeometry, Brazilian 3D designer Cicero Moraes lends credence to the theory that the shroud was a work of art rather than a genuine death shroud — and per the new paper, it may not have laid atop a human at all. Using three types of 3D modeling tools — MakeHuman, Blender, and

Home Depot’s Halloween Skeleton Decorations Now Feature Electronically Enhanced Terrors

Home Depot has given its giant skeleton-led collection of Halloween decorations quite an upgrade for 2025, with more animatronic capabilities that are even more perfectly suited to terrify your neighborhood all year long. New for this year is the 6.5 ft. Grave & Bones Animated Ultra Skelly with “Life Eyes,” which can blink, move, and be changed to fit various expressions and holiday themes—such as heart eyes for Valentine’s Day. With an LED app, you can control not just the eyes and lights on S

The daily life of a medieval king

Have you wondered what a medieval king did on a typical day? Thanks to Christine de Pizan, we have an account of what daily life was like for King Charles V of France. Around the year 1404, Christine de Pizan completed her work, Livre des faits et bonnes mœurs du sage roy Charles V. It was both a biography of the French king who reigned from 1364 to 1380 and a guide to how an ideal monarch should live and rule. Christine had a good vantage point to tell this story. Her father, Tommaso di Pizan

More and More Christians Say AI Is Demonic

Like many conservatives, evangelicals have broadly begun to embrace artificial intelligence — but at the same time, a growing subset of the Christian world is claiming that the technology is quite literally demonic. In a recent Medium blog post — yes, people still post on that site — self-proclaimed "biblical Christian author" and regular AI user Zack Duncan suggested that an image generator's cartoonish outputs regarding Satan may be the result of some demonic influence. "I’ve seen a trend of

Far-Right ‘Appeal to Heaven’ Flag Flown Above Government Agency in DC

A controversial “Appeal to Heaven” flag that has recently become associated with the “Stop the Steal” movement and Christian nationalism was flown above the Small Business Administration (SBA) agency last week in Washington, DC. On June 11, Kelly Loeffler, the former senator from Georgia and current administrator of the SBA, participated in a ceremony where a new flag of the United States was raised over the agency’s headquarters. Just beneath that flag, on what appeared to be the same halyard,

Robert Eggers Is Making a ‘Christmas Carol’ Movie, and Willem Dafoe May Be Scrooge

Over the decades, few stories have been as malleable as Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Story. It’s been a Bill Murray comedy, it’s been a Robert Zemeckis CGI fest, and it’s even been a Muppet movie, just to name a few. Next up for the iconic tale, though, is what we can only assume is a much darker, scarier twist from none other than Robert Eggers. Deadline reports that the man behind The Witch, The Lighthouse, The Northman, and last year’s surprise hit Nosferatu, is in talks to write and direct
