This paper-craft version of Game Of Thrones' opening scene is pretty cool

To promote the launch of their new Game of Thrones notebooks, Moleskine has released a video of the show's iconic opening sequence, recreated using 7,600 paper cutouts. All notebooks feature beautiful cover designs, each with a different house - House Lannister, House Stark (two different designs), and House Targaryen. Essential for unexpected journeys, adventures, and encounters with vicious White Walkers. Thanks to Macoy for the alert!

This steampunk-themed cafe makes the meme cool again

Now, maybe I'm as tired of steampunk as you guys, but that doesn't mean I'm going to pretend something like this isn't cool. Located in the Romanian city of Cluj, Enigma claims to be "the world's first kinetic steampunk bar." I don't know if that's true, but the place looks pretty dope with all the dynamic art installations. [h/t: Colossal ]

Where Bad Space and Good Music Collided

My first apartment was in Malate, and calling it “small” would be generous. I lived there with two girls and one guy, and to this day, I genuinely don’t know how we all fit. It felt like a magic trick. Or a health hazard. We were a musical mess. One roommate lived and breathed ’70s classics. Another was permanently blasting Korn and Slipknot. One survived solely on cheesy love songs. And me? I was floating somewhere between new wave and folk rock, pretending that made sense. Somehow, despite the noise and the chaos, we all lived together in this weird, mismatched harmony. No murders. No lawsuits. A win, honestly. My music taste now is nothing like it was in my twenties. Not even close. But I’ll always be grateful to Jacqueline for introducing me to this song in particular. It was playing when I woke up from a very memorable sleep in 2002. I was 21, half-awake, probably confused about life, and that song stuck. It still hasn’t let go.
