Look what Nintendo did:
Saira Blair, an eighteen-year-old freshman at West Virginia University, was elected to West Virginia's House of Delegates. She ran on a Republican platform and defeated her 44-year-old opponent Layne Diehl by receiving 63% of the vote as opposed to Diehl's 30%. (A third candidate received the other 7% of the vote.) “History has been made tonight in West Virginia, and while I am proud of all that we have accomplished together, it is the future of this state that is now my singular focus,” Blair said in a released statement. “When I made the decision to run for public office, I did so because I firmly believe that my generation’s voice, fresh perspective and innovative ideas can help solve some of our state’s most challenging issues,” she added in a post on her campaign's Facebook page. Blair first gained national attention when she defeated the 66-year-old incumbent in May's primary vote when she was seventeen. [source 1] [source 2]

And I want to take this opportunity to express how utterly stupid I think bipartisan politics and rhetoric are.
This movie, a prequel to Despicable Me, details how the Minions came to serve under Gru. The Minions, through all time on earth, have existed only to serve the baddest, most evil master. But when they find themselves master-less for a long time, three Minions--Kevin, Stuart, and Bob--set out on a journey to find a new master.

Today has been Yoko Shimomura's birthday! She's turned 47~ If you're somehow unaware of who she is, she's the genius mind behind all the music we hear in the KH series (and also Xenoblade Chronicles, Super Mario RPG, Radiant Historia, Mario & Luigi, Live a Live, Final Fantasy XV, Luminous Arc, Mana...) What are some of your favorite pieces by her from any of her career?

St. Louis police officers report that 18-year-old Vonderrick Myer, when stopped for a pedestrian check around 7:30 last night, turned and shot at an as of yet unnamed 32-year-old white policeman, who was unfortunately forced to return fire and fatally shoot the teen. Relatives and witnesses claim that while Myer turned and ran, all he was armed with was a sandwich, yet was tasered and then shot sixteen times by the off-duty cop. More info has yet to be released. (source) Incidentally, today, the day after the shooting, marks two months since the murder of Michael Brown, whose shooter is still on paid leave.
