We know, we know, this is totally a “clickbait title.” But here’s the thing, this paper airplane isn’t one of those fold-and-go, origami-for-doofuses airplanes. This is a model of a Boeing 777, and in fact, it’s a semi-working model. The overhead bins open, the headrests move up and down, the landing gear works, and so on. This Wired piece describes the man building this paper masterpiece (and why he would do such a crazy-involved thing).

A book called Fire and Fury recently came out, and it describes Trump’s very difficult first year in office. In addition, Trump’s recently released private schedule reveals that Trump is working less and less every day. His days start around eleven in the morning, and many of them have several hours of built in “executive time” every day. What is executive time, you ask? Time spent tweeting and watching TV news. So…yeah, that’s not great (if it’s true). Take a look at this Close Look and weigh in in the comments. 

Most movies seem like copies of other movies. Think Star Wars: The Force Awakens and A New Hope. Basically the same movie, right? Other movies make artful references. For example, the famous baby carriage scene from The Untouchables was inspired by Battleship Potemkin (other films referenced that same scene before The Untouchables). Precious few movies are entirely original, though, and this CineFix video runs through five different kinds of originality in the art of filmmaking. Spoiler alert: you likely haven’t heard of any of them.

When you watch a movie and a character gets his or her heart broken, you feel bad for that character. You know, probably, what it is like to have your heart broken so you can put yourself in that character’s shoes. That’s called empathy. Babies don’t have empathy, but adults do. The question is when exactly do children develop empathy? This video gets into questions of childhood psychological development in terms of empathy. 

Egyptian Blue is a color that dates back to the time of the pharaohs. The exact recipe for the color disappeared for a time, but scientists eventually rediscovered it thanks to some historical records and a lot of experimentation. Now that Egyptian Blue has been rediscovered, it’s useful for a lot more than just dyeing shirts a cool stage of blue. Check out the video to learn some of the cool things that scientists have learned from this color. 

You might have seen a video in which an alleged portal opens up in a room and opens up a window to Sedona, Arizona. The video has nearly a million views by now, and many of the comments buy into it a hundred percent. This credulity has angered Captain Disillusion, who has dedicated his life to debunking fake viral videos. In this video, he explains how the “portal” is actually a result of some clever computer animation. 

Just like an American-English speaking person can go to England and notice that people have accents, so too can an America Sign Language speaker can go to England and detect differences in sign languages. This video explains the differences in sign language dialects and how those differences originated. The entire video is presented by a deaf blogger (with the exception of Tom Scott’s introduction), so you’re going to need to put on closed captioning. And life pro-tip, if you’re a fast reader you can double the speed of the video. 

Koreans don’t (as a general rule) eat nachos. Mexicans (as a rule) don’t eat Korean food. But that doesn’t mean that these two cuisines should never meet. Bert Kreischer, in this video, teaches comedians Bill Burr and Tom Segura how to make nachos Korean style. It’s a very unique twist on nachos, given that it doesn’t use tortilla chips and instead uses wanton chips. If you don’t want to watch this video, then skip to the full recipe.

When you think top-of-the-line, you generally don’t think about Indian food. And if you think about gas station food in general, you probably think it would be impossible for gas station food to be fresh and delicious. But this family business is going to change all of those perceptions. Using fresh ingredients, solid recipes, and a quick turnaround, this gas station Indian food is the going to make a mark on Indian food in the L.A. region. 

The whole point of dating is to find someone that you can spend the rest of your life with. But there’s a big problem with that: how do you know you’ve found the right person? In this short video, Jordan Peterson tries to explain some of the things that you’ll need to know if you are going to successfully determine if you’ve found the right person. For example, to set up a life with someone you’ll have to do all sorts of negotiations. If you are going to be able to live with someone forever, you’ll have to be able to negotiate well. 

The history of the universe is usually not told in dominoes. But this unique video uses dominoes as a motif to explain how the universe evolved from the big bang on. Over the course of 13,7999 dominoes––each domino representing a million years––the host explains how the big bang catalyzed atoms to join, create stars that explode and send their elements out, and so and so forth. The video also explains the origins of our own galaxy, why it’s called the Milky Way, and why it has its shape. 

Do you find yourself baffled by how airlines price their flights? You’re not alone, it’s insanely complicated.
