Tina Romero’s Zombie Movie, ‘Queens of the Dead,’ Has a Queer, Gory, and Gleeful First Trailer

Google Tasks may finally add this critical time-management feature (APK teardown)

Andy Walker / Android Authority TL;DR We’ve spotted that Google Tasks looks to be testing deadline support. Deadlines would only be an option to add when editing a task, rather than when it’s created. The test version does not allow you to specify a deadline time and does not display the due date in the main list view. Google Tasks has always been a bare-bones tool. For some, that’s part of the appeal, but its stripped-down approach often leaves power users wanting more. The lack of sharing,

Ambrosia Sky is an essay on death masquerading as a sci-fi cleaning sim

Dalia is a death cleaner. Death cleaning, as we know it, is the process of sanitizing and tidying the spaces where people take their final breaths, sometimes long after their bodies have begun to decompose. It’s a job here on Earth in the year 2025, but Dalia’s version of death cleaning takes place on the rings of Saturn in a distant future filled with space travel, interplanetary colonization and devastating disease outbreaks.
