Tesla stock is up on expectation people will pay $250,000 "reservation" cost for a non-flying model.
Screenshot of a dark-themed Roadster reservation page showing three vehicle variants. At the top, “Performance” is labeled “Reserve,” with the description “Road ready with seating for two. Includes active aero and a multi-mode suction system.”

Under the heading “Augments,” the “Thrust” variant is selected, highlighted by a thin gold and white rectangular border and labeled “Limited” in gold text. Its description reads: “Race ready with seating for two. Includes Performance active aero and a multi-mode suction system, plus acceleration thrusters.”

Below, “Rocket” is labeled “Invite Only,” with the description “Air ready with seating for one. Includes Performance and Thrust, plus a full flight system.”

A notice explains that Thrust reservations are limited to one per customer, duplicate orders may be canceled, and availability depends on regional laws.

The payment section shows “Due Today” — “$5,000,” marked “Fully refundable,” and “Due within 10 days” — “$245,000.” Additional text states that reservations are not final until payment is received, unpaid reservations may be canceled after 10 days, and refunds for modifications will not be issued. The bottom of the screenshot shows partially cut-off reservation agreement and terms links.

QA #WhiskersWednesday
A gray tabby cat sits upright on a dark wooden desk, looking down with a serious expression, as if supervising work. Behind the cat, a slightly blurred monitor displays lines of code. A white mug rests on a black warmer to the right, with cables and a partially hidden Rubik’s Cube nearby. The cat’s fur and long white whiskers are in sharp focus against the softly blurred background.

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy that isn’t a selfie
A vintage-style poster resembling a medical ad, incorporating lyrics and themes from Pink Floyd's song *Comfortably Numb*.

The central image shows a black-and-white profile of a woman’s head and neck, with an illustration of her brain and neck muscles overlaid. Sections labeled "PRESSURE," "PAIN," and "TENSION" are marked in red and black, indicating areas associated with discomfort.

Text above and beside the head includes phrases from the song, such as "Hello — Is there anybody in there?" and "Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone home?" The bottom section includes further lyrics in smaller text, reflecting themes of numbness and detachment.

At the lower right corner is a pain relief pill box labeled "COMFORTABLY NUMB - Fast Pain Relief," emphasizing headache and neuralgia relief. The phrase "3 out of 4 doctors recommend the ingredients in..." appears near the bottom.

It supports multiple platforms, here it's running on Pebble Time 2
Close-up of a black Pebble Time 2 smartwatch with a ridged black strap on a wrist. The screen shows the “Block Crush” game, with light blue, orange, purple, green, and red blocks arranged on a dark blue grid. A white diamond marks one purple block, and small orange and green pieces appear below the grid. The score “35” is at the upper left, a speaker icon is near the top center, and “BEST 392” is at the upper right. A gray and beige patterned background is softly blurred.

He didn't even account for inflation from 1935 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_Can%...
In 1936, American Senator Berzelius "Buzz" Windrip enters the presidential election campaign on a populist platform, promising to restore the country to prosperity and greatness, and promising each citizen $5,000 per year (equivalent to $116,000 in 2025). Portraying himself as a champion of "the forgotten man" and "traditional" American values

Front cover text:
"WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN AMERICA HAS A DICTATOR?
IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE
A Novel by
SINCLAIR LEWIS"

Background includes an image of a red fasces with a green olive branch.

Back cover text:
"'Vulgar, almost illiterate, a public liar easily detected… He was an actor of genius'

A vain, outlandish, anti-immigrant, fear-mongering demagogue runs for President of the United States – and wins. Sinclair Lewis's chilling 1935 bestseller is the story of Buzz Windrip, who promises poor, angry voters that he will make America proud and prosperous once more, but takes the country down a far darker path. As the new regime slides into authoritarianism, newspaper editor Doremus Jessop can't believe it will last – but is he right? This cautionary tale of liberal complacency in the face of populist tyranny shows it really can happen here."

A black-and-white still from The Twilight Zone episode "The Masks" showing four characters standing side-by-side in formal evening wear. Their faces are hideous, grotesque caricatures, featuring sagging jowls, flattened snouts, and cruel expressions, that physically reflect their inner ugliness. They stare forward in shock and dismay, each holding the molded mask that caused their horrific disfigurement.

A small group of protesters walks along a sidewalk and crosswalk at a busy suburban intersection under a blue, partly cloudy sky. One person carries a cardboard sign reading “STOP THE ORANGE IDIOT” and a small American flag; another, wearing a red knit hat and rainbow-colored vest, holds a sign reading “FREE IMMIGRANTS.” Several people walk dogs with the group. Cars fill the road beside them, while a pedestrian signal shows the white walking figure beneath a “ONE WAY” sign.

First-person gameplay in *Robo Recall* on a city street at dusk. The player dual-wields two pistols, both showing “0” ammo, while facing a rogue humanoid robot at close range holding a glowing red energy weapon or shield. Destroyed robot parts lie in the intersection, and bright blue weapon icons appear around the street. Arcade-style HUD text shows “HEADSHOT,” an “x1” multiplier, and a score of “491 PTS.”
