Cooking the Impossible Burger

Human Evolution in 1,000 Years
Evolution never stops — the timeline for evolution is usually measured in hundreds of thousands or even millions of years. But in just over a century, the height of the average American male has increased three inches and there have been adaptations to disease in the span of decades. Some of the most radical evolutionary shifts may come from our own doing, as gene editing technologies like CRISPR allow for extreme fine-tuning of the human genome, and the growing potential for interfacing our biological selves with computers. And in 1,000 years, we might not be living on Earth at all.
Wonder Woman
If Batman vs. Superman wasn't enough, Wonder Woman returns in her own film. Gal Gadot is back as the Amazonian superwoman, showing her origins as Diana, princess of the Amazons.

Directed by Patty Jenkins, the film is scheduled for release June 2, 2017.

Doodlebug
There's something in his apartment. A man looking for an insect-like thing devolves into a bout of insanity as his subconscious mind begins to strangle his waking one.

Birds aren't the only males that sport flashy plumage. Leaving the house with an unkept pile of dead cells on your is a definite no — as illustrated by John Turturro and Bobby Cannavale Hair, a short film directed by Turturro as part of a campaign for rag & bone. This hilarious, unscripted short gives a lighter take on the sometimes too-serious world of fashion and our own obsession with how we look.
