- Ladies helping girls become badass app-making ladies over at The Frisky
- Here, have some GIFs of superheroes dancing— you can never have too many GIFs of twerking Spider-Man! (Or Oppan Avengers Style)

From Neatorama: this Beemo teapot is adorable. That is all.
- #598704 on the list of reasons why Microsoft is shooting itself in the foot: male presenter at Microsoft’s E3 Event Makes a Rape Joke, and somehow no one is surprised.

- Your dose of ’90s childhood nostalgia for the day: Capcom announced that Duck Tales is going to be remastered and released for the PC on Steam! Life is like a hurricane here in Duckburg…
- Lois Lane is getting some well-deserved attention with Lois Lane: A Celebration of 75 HC. (via dcwomenkickingass)
