35 Awesome Cosplay Displays From NYCC 2015. I just don't have time to put together a proper or even a half-assed attempted at t NYCC cosplay post so here's one from The Robot's Voice. It's pretty good. I'm sure mine would have been funnier but whatevs.

The Xbox One Is Garbage And The Future Is Bullshit. Wow, this guy doesn't like his Xbox One. To be fair I'm guessing most people don't get a broken unit right out of the box but still setting up a new console doesn't sound fun. I get pissed when I fire up Steam and I have to wait like 5 minutes for an update.

Is Playboy Stigmatizing Nudity By No Longer Celebrating It In Its Pages? I found it mildly amusing yesterday when I read this article about 5 minutes after I read another article about how Playboy dropping nudity is proof that pornography is everywhere and we're all going to hell in a handbasket.

I don't know, Playboy didn't invent porn or anything. The internet would have led to free pornography for everyone with out without Hef's smoking jacket. Their decision to remove naked ladies from their pages is purely financial. There's no pressure for them to do it, they just realize the market for magazines without naked ladies is bigger than the market for magazines with naked ladies. I'm not really sure I would call that a stigma, that's just responding to the marketplace.

The Story Behind Bob Beamon's Miracle Jump And The Only Photo That Mattered. Warning, this is a super long form article, but it's really interesting. Amazing to think that the guy that took this photo was some random amateur photographer that just sort of wandered freely around the Olympics because he had a camera and a track jacket. Times sure have changed.
