Entomologist Jennifer Zaspel and her team have found moths that will drill their hook-and-barb-lined tongues under the skin and suck you blood. Thought to be an evolutionary jump from drinking the juices of fruit, these tiny winged blood suckers from Russia are virtually indistinguishable from their central and southern European fruit drinking cousins.

Those who suffer from Mottephobia (the fear of moths) and Sanguivoriphobia (the fear of vampires) can now proceed to freak the hell out.

GORBACHOV: THE MUSIC VIDEO – BIGGER AND RUSSIANER from Tom Stern on Vimeo.

I really don’t know what Russian metal band ANJ is singing about in this video simply called GORBACHOV, and to be honest I really don’t care. All I really need to know is that it depicts Mikhail Gorbachev as a musclebound, zombie-killing barbarian with lasers shooting out of his eyes! Add to that all of the propaganda style animation and hot Ruskie girls embracing good ol’ American Capitalism… well, it brings a tear to the eye indeed.
