How dogs and cats teach their young about stairs
I love cats, they're so funny and to the point about things.

This is part 2 of the linked vid, not a dupe.
I'm afraid she's a dupe of this

Arkansas Mother Obliterates Common Core in 4 Minutes!
Yeah, it's really dumbing our children down if they're taught how to solve new problems rather than just being taught specific solutions to specific problems.
Cry some more about how the educational standards expect students to work the problem out themselves rather than use a rote memorized solution. It's not like they'll eventually need to do so if they get to higher level math.
The example given is such a great word problem. It's neither useful in everyday life, nor does it demonstrate the student knows how to do anything beyond knowing a solution for that specific problem and the ability to to basic division. Oh wait, that's not great at all.
Also if you or your kids need to memorize multiplication tables by rote in order to learn fractions, you and/or they are dumb.

MSNBC PSA - All Your Kids Are Belong to Us
I wonder if the people who wrote this ad know how tone deaf this ad is, but don't care because the tea party/republican/libertarian crowd have put themselves totally out of reach.
Star Citizen Extended Trailer
It's a space dogfighting game, so there is atmosphere in space, or at least it controls like it is. The human spaceships are supposed to look something like WW2 era fighter planes, since that's what this game is about, WW2 dogfighting in space.
You can even see what could be atmospheric maneuvering controls on one of the ships at the 4 minute mark. Wings or rudders or something wiggling about.
As for realism, there's much worse lapses here than just "omg spaceships with wings!". You could put wings on a spaceship for practical purposes, to make a spaceplane like the space shuttle. Or for decoration. But then you get things like the really fast military fighters have a top speed much lower than C, they can turn and kill their old inertia as if pushing against air, all the fighting is done at visual ranges under accelerations slow enough for a human to react to (and survive physically), lasers fire discrete, visible, tracer like lines rather than an invisible ray traveling at the speed of light... I'm sure there's more.
Looks bad. Really I thought it was a fan made EVE trailer. Also it kind of breaks a rule of good design, SPACE ships have no need for wings. Unless you have your engines mounted on them or they are carrying massive weapons, it just makes you a bigger target and there is no atmosphere in space.
