Old Goku by Akira Toriyama, 1989: “That's why I don't really know when Dragon Ball will end or what will happen in the future. Maybe Goku will end up becoming an old man like this…”

Old Goku by Toyotaro, 2026: “Back in 1989, Toriyama sensei drew an art of an elderly Goku in the Dragon Ball Z Anime Special book, joking «when Dragon Ball will end Goku might end up becoming an old man like this…».

37 years later… Dragon Ball is still not over in 2026!

Mr. Toriyama! The day may come when we can see Goku in this form!”

Does anybody have this? It's essentially a Rubix Cube that lets you generate millions of random dungeons. A buddy just gave it to me because he thought I'd get a kick out of it.

Pretty cool!

When Michelangelo finished this statue, the story goes that he struck it across the knee with his hammer and shouted: "Why don't you speak?"

Looking at it, you can see why he expected an answer.

The figure is Moses, carved by Michelangelo between 1513 and 1515 for the tomb of Pope Julius II, and it stands today in the church of San Pietro in Vincoli in Rome.

It is one of the most lifelike things ever cut from stone, and Michelangelo himself is said to have considered it his most living creation.

According to the legend, when it was done, the silence of something so alive was more than he could bear. He hit its knee and demanded that it speak. Some say a faint mark on the knee is still there…

Look first at the head, and you will see something strange: two horns rising from his hair. They are not a symbol of evil. They are one of the most famous translation errors in history. When the Hebrew scriptures were rendered into Latin, the word describing Moses coming down from Mount Sinai, karan, was read as "horned." But the same set of letters can also mean "radiant," "emitting rays of light." Moses' face was not growing horns. It was shining. By Michelangelo's time the mistranslation was centuries old and fixed in tradition, so he carved the horns, as nearly every artist before him had.

Then look at the face. The head is turned to one side, the brows drawn down, the eyes fixed on something beyond the room. Many scholars believe Michelangelo caught Moses in a single specific instant: the moment he comes down from the mountain holding the commandments and sees his people worshipping a golden idol, the breath before his fury erupts. The whole body is tensed on the edge of motion, and yet it will never move.

Michelangelo believed every block of marble held a living figure inside it, waiting to be set free. With Moses, he came closer than anyone ever had, and when he laid down his tools, only one thing was still beyond him: he had made a man who could do everything but speak...
