    Bill Nye explains evolution with emojis and more links we love right now

    Bill Nye explains evolution with emojis and more links we love right now
    play icon

    Editor's note: There's so much that's beautiful, funny, smart and informative on the Internet. Problem is, there's also a bunch of garbage. Here's the best of the web right now:

    1. Bill Nye uses emojis to explain evolution in under two minutes. The Science Guy continues to teach youths that science doesn't need to be intimidating. It's no "AC/DC Charge," but that might be nostalgia talking.

    2. Mom calls in to CSPAN to tell her two pundit sons to take a breather come Christmastime. Brad and Dallas Woodhouse are brothers — one is a Democrat, the other a Republican — and their mom wants them to stop bickering when they come home "down South" next week.

    3. This tortoise helps its tortoise buddy get back on his feet. We've all been that tortoise on his back, so text your best friend and thank them for all the times they turned you back over so you wouldn't die.

    4. Jon Hamm stops by The Late Late Show for a chat with Craig Ferguson. It's Ferguson's last week as the show's host and as late night's best interviewer. Hamm has a beard. What else do you need to know? (Interview starts around 14:30 of the video.)

    5. Inside Lacrosse publishes its annual All-Name Team headlined by Johns Hopkins' brothers Wellington and Shackleford Stanwick. Past Texas All-Name Team members include Remington Steele, Rhett Miller (no, not that one), Deets Hoffman, Neth Weidemann and Ridge Flick. I swear I didn't make any of those up.

    Bearded Jon Hamm is the best Jon Hamm.

Get the details on our most popular stories below, then find the best things to do this weekend right here.

    1. Over-the-top bakery-candy shop Pinkitzel puts McKinney in the pink. A fabulously over-the-top bakery and boutique has debuted in historic downtown McKinney: Called Pinkitzel, it's a bakery, candy shop, and gift boutique now open at 101 W. Louisiana St., taking over a space that was previously Homeology.

    2. 19 Dallas-area billionaires make 2025 Forbes list of richest Americans. Nineteen Dallas-Fort Worth billionaires have landed on Forbes' prestigious list of the 400 richest Americans in 2025.

    Houlihan's Houlihan's had been there since 2010. Houlihan's

    3. Houlihan's in Garland closes, leaving one restaurant in Dallas area. In bad news for fans of the "Famous 'Shrooms," Houlihan's, the restaurant chain dating back to the early 1970s, has closed its location in Garland, on the south side of Firewheel Town Center at 660 Town Center Blvd., where it had been open for 15 years.

    4. New East Dallas dive bar opens with karaoke and cocktail cred. East Dallas has a new bar from a big name in the beverage business. Called Rising Tides, it just opened at 9909 Garland Rd. under the helm of veteran mixologist/bartender Alex Fletcher, founder of Shaken + Stirred Hospitality.

    5. Curuba Colombia Kitchen brings arepas and empanadas to Allen. A restaurant serving Colombian food has debuted in Allen: Curuba Colombia Kitchen is a mom-and-pop featuring authentic Colombian dishes now open at 1546 Stacy Rd. #165, at Lost Creek Village, in a former mochi doughnut shop.
