Are mustaches back in LA? I’ve seen 5 just out and about this morning. Everyone thinks they look like a Cavill but they’re really serving Kip…

Revamped my entire website this weekend with my @grok @bot team and some @ChatGPT mojo tag teaming together. Would have taken me weeks 15 years ago learning Wordpress and code and html. I thought resumes looked boring so I built an interactive career page with timelines and video highlights and career pix and shoutouts from colleagues along the way.

Yes. “Midnight in Paris” showed this perfectly—modern writer (Owen Wilson) longs for the romantic days of Hemingway/ Fitzgerald. Then he (magically) meets them… discovers they’re nostalgic for the Belle Époque Edgar Degas era. Every gen thinks the last era was the golden one.
Ethan Hawke explains why you can't see how good your own era is until it's already gone "My kids and stuff, some of my kids are older, so 27 23 and they're like" "Oh back in the 90s, my son showed me the other day like 5 movies that came out some weekend in 1994 something and they're all amazing" "He said what a time I wish i lived in that time and I was like wow I remember being nonplussed that weekend and I remember wishing it was 1974" "So we're in this ongoing thing which make it really easy to be critical and negative about what's happening" "Cause usually time is the great curator, time will reveal what's good about what's happening right today cause it's harder for us to see it"

What if Cowboy Bebop received the live-action adaptation fans had always imagined? Ever since I heard Keanu was attached 10+ years ago to the live-action Bebop, I always wondered... what if. youtube.com/watch?v=r480giDw…

Guys! Stop speeding up earth’s rotation! It makes time go faster and it was just January and now it’s May so thanks a lot!!
I think this is dangerous because it accelerates the earth's rotation speed and it could kill us

Elon Musk and Ron Howard have ruined us with cinematic launches and cool camera angles. Made the Artemis watch hard to watch. Especially right at launch when cameras blacked out as it left the pad. Boo. What are you streaming? Dialup? At least you could hire Mr Beast

Perfect Top Gun move. Put on the brakes and they fly right by. Once you get the “too close for missiles switching to guns” upgrade package you’ll get to experience phase two of this great maneuver! 🤣
Turns out, FSD is also the most polite driver on the road While driving down a curvy mountain road, Tesla’s Full Self-Driving noticed a car aggressively tailgating from behind and made a decision most human drivers probably wouldn’t Instead of braking hard or just ignoring it, the car smoothly eased over just enough to let the other driver pass

If nobody is singing/performing the song it’s not a music video it’s just a long montage
Making music videos with Grok Imagine has never been easier than it is today. "Queen of the Ashes"
