Ryan Broderick is in hell now. I'm in hell now. You're probably in hell. Because hell is seeing everyone retweet the stupid mugshot of stupid Justin Bieber as he stupidly ruins his stupid life while stupidly thinking he's as cool as Johnny Cash. Poor delussional broken toy.

Eavesdropping on the Secret Sounds of Trees
Jan 23, 4:20PM

Jan 23, 3:00PM
Most printer news these days involves expensive 3D models designed to create almost anything from melted plastic. But Cricut's new Explore model still deals with paper, just not how your inkjet at home does.
