I was struck by lightning. You Can See Everything quite literally changed my life. It elevates the medium of documentary filmmaking to a level cinema has never reached before. The film operates like a magic trick combined with a quantum mechanics experiment, such as Schrödinger's cat, unfolding in real time. It will make you question your sanity. It explores concepts of reality and the simulacrum discussed by philosopher Jean Baudrillard. I'll be heading back to the cinema this weekend to experience it again. This is a historic achievement by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim. Go in blind and watch it with a packed audience.

I’m excited to drive this exclusively through 45 minutes of suburban traffic to my mid level sales job
They really just got on stage and said this newly designed 4000+ pound car can do flips and go half the speed of sound (380+mph) and will ship in 2028. This is a prank, right?

Mark Ludak is one of my favorite photographers. His recent work in Pennsylvania’s anthracite coal region stops me cold. He's on Instagram: instagram.com/mark_ludak

id be more lit abt seaside if it wasnt an HOAcratic ethnostate
The only real problem with Seaside is that we only built a few of them; it's such a vastly superior product than the alternatives that demand far outstripped supply, and so now it gets knocked for being unaffordable, "too nice," etc.

i agree that watching a mark rober video makes you think youve learned a complex topic in twenty minutes
MrBeast explains why the education system is completely broken “Why are students today being taught the same way their parents were? Look at how much everything else has advanced. When I was in school the teacher would just stand there, read out of a book and write on a whiteboard” "Now look at Mark Rober’s videos. You can learn complex topics in 20 minutes in a way that’s engaging, fun and you retain it. Just because our parents were taught one way doesn’t mean we need to keep teaching that same way. It makes no sense to me, I think education should be reformed dramatically” “Students spend so much time in school. If we had real courses made through videos, made learning more hands on and optimised everything with modern technology, kids could probably learn more in 5 hours than they currently do in 8 hours"

when i look at palestine in 2026 the first thing i think is "this place needs more consultant buzzwords and master planned development"
Jared Kushner presenting this morning at the “Board of Peace” ceremony their mock ups of “New Gaza” & “New Rafah.”

urban planning consultants after completing 60 community engagement meetings, 35 stakeholder roundtables, 5000+ hours in GIS, 20,000+ hours in InDesign, 4 years, and spending $900,000 of taxpayer dollars on a plan that will never be implemented

theyre beating his ass in the replies but the techbroification of urban planning will never create swagged out places
We simply need to figure out how to develop cities without them all looking like this
