NPR's Tiny Desk was taken over by three humanoid aliens — or robots, or maybe even real men in heavy blue makeup — as the Blue Man Group brought their eclectic ambient sounds to the office. The Rube Goldberg of musical acts brought their own Rube Goldberg instruments for 13 of the most unique minutes in the history of the Tiny Desk series.

The Milk Way is about 160,000 light years wide, with our planet only taking up a mere fraction of that. Considering our only spacecraft in transit is taking 2.5 billion years to make the trip through it, human domination doesn't seem likely. But there could be a better way. Roey Tzezana explains the idea of von Neumann machines and how they could aid in getting civilization across our galaxy.
Long gone are the days of stiff, wrinkled chinos. Modern pants are cut from a different (better) cloth, and Jack Archer's Jetsetter Tech Pants are a prime example. Crafted from premium Rebound fabric sourced from Japan, they're stretchy, wrinkle-free, anti-odor, and stain-resistant, making them great for travel. The fit provides room where it's needed but is slim where it's not, and is enhanced by a diamond-shaped gusset that prevents tightness in the crotch and the curved-waist design that provides a lift to the backside. Built with premium stitching, they also feature a zippered coin pocket and hidden reflective tape that's only revealed when they're cuffed. Now available in two cuts: the original, best-selling Slim Fit and the new Straight Fit, which offer a roomier fit from the knee down.

Originally released in 1982, the aptly named Nike Field General was originally designed for wear by pro quarterbacks. While we doubt we'll see any current QBs rocking them anytime soon, they are a solid choice for casual wear. The upper is a mix of durable textile and suede, with a touch of leather used for the heel cap and Swoosh. A foam midsole offers reasonable comfort, while the nubby Waffle sole provides outstanding grip, and might make these a sleeper choice for wear on the golf course. A variety of colorways range from subtle to bold, ensuring there's a version of the retro silhouette to fit your style.

Imagine a swing so extreme you need a parachute to ride it. Red Bull takes the venerable playground mainstay to a whole other level, suspending it from hot air balloon 6,000 feet in the air. In the words of skydiver George Lettner, the 400-foot long swing is the realization of a childhood dream: "To swing higher and higher, and finally jump off and fly."
There are two things that couldn't possibly be better suited to each other: Netflix's Stranger Things and 8-bit video games.
