YES
YES
YES!!!
cant fucking sleep bc wikipedia has separate lists for vampires and for fictional vampires
The masquerade works hard but wikipedia works harder

Work perk
This is so cute I love it when athletes pretend to be equally matched to a little kid
Background: this is stage fighting! No one was seriously hurt. The girls name is Hakura, a child wrestler who is now retired.
I really Appreciate the knee drop. Because it looks like he’s about to snap this girls spine but instead he stomps his foot to make a loud sound and then drops her gently on his knee. She’s fine and it’s a classic move for stage fighting. This is so well choreographed too I love it.
Then the hair grab as well. Again, it’s a simple staging technique. I learned this in high school theater, myself. It’s a gentle grab that the kiddo is leading as to not cause pain. I love it
I really appreciate how, because she's so young and he has to be careful not to hurt her, you can see it's fake. Usually the wrestlers put a lot of work into making it look as real as possible (often at great risk to their own health and safety, which obviously you can't do with a kid), but the mismatch here gives just enough space to see how it's done. It's like watching a young-but-decent magician and being able to follow the moves; you can see the performance, which you don't usually get to see in wrestling.
They’re also shooting for 100% renewable plastic sources by 2030! All of the soft plant/leaf elements in sets right now and going forward are made out of bioplastic made from sugarcane, and they’re working on getting the regular hard plastic bricks out of that, too.
They’ve done it, actually! The full bricks are in the prototype stage now, and are expected to be 100% biodegradable without the need for a commercial compost facility. It’s very cool. Right now they’re testing the durability and playability of the bricks and seeing what needs to be revised/reworked on their final model.
So its that easy huh
Of course it is
Actually, this isn’t “easy” and is huge news. You see, Lego is absolutely meticulous about their quality control. Their standards for manufacturing are stupidly high, as are their safety requirements. You know that distinctive “click” when you pop two Lego bricks apart? They engineered that. That sound is so distinctive that it can be used to tell genuine Lego bricks from counterfeits and it’s a sound that would be based on shape and material.
Furthermore, one of the hard requirements for a Lego brick is that it must be compatible with any other Lego brick. If I buy a set today and pull a set from the 1980s? Those bricks would fit together perfectly. This requires a huge amount of precision engineering and controls on manufacturing quality. (I can’t remember the source, but I’ve at least heard that once the brick molds wear to a certain point, they’re pulled from the line and either melted down or turned into construction material for Lego HQ. Point being, no one is getting their hands on a worn Lego mold)
Recycled and non-petroleum plastics are different from other plastic. The chemistry is different. The timing and process to use them is different. This has been a reason why more companies haven’t moved to them, because there’s a drop in quality for material (so they claim).
What Lego just did is completely obliterate that argument. The corporation with some of the strictest quality control requirements for plastic just kicked the basic foundation of the “bad quality” argument out from under it, because if they feel confident enough to guarantee the same experience as using a brick from over 40 years ago, if they are confident enough that they can meet their own metrics at a huge industrial scale….
Nobody else has any excuse.
