Seen somewhere else: it's really impressive that Tesla designed a "truck" so bad that when one explodes you can't be sure whether it was a car bomb or just yet another design flaw.
Here’s the original photo before the low-quality noise reduction and oversaturation, in case anyone else is interested.
Edit: Here’s the video https://youtu.be/YnO6RBOs6oA
They are different photos. The framing is different, the flames are different. Im not saying the posted one isnt altered, but the difference in appearance could just be from different cameras (quality, settings, etc).
You’re right. Someone pointed out in another post that it’s just another frame from the same video, but without editing.
Were this a painting, I'd accuse the artist of being lazy and not knowing how to paint a car.
My first thought was "this is the timeline where biff got the almanac" Doesn't even look that similar to the movie(yet?), must be a similar feeling i suppose
Could be worse, it could be the future where President Lisa Simpson appoints her brother Bart as the minister of "keeping it real". I heard they inherited quite the financial blackhole from President Tr- oh.

Did it ever really leave? as far as I can tell the funny numbers went back up but for most real people things have been pretty consistently downhill since 2008.
If you really want to have a migraine, read Hunter Thompson's "Hell's Angels."
There's a passage where he talks about the economics of being a biker/hippie/artist circa 1970.
An Angel could work six months as a Union stevedore and earn enough to hit the road for two years. A part time waitress could make enough to support herself and her musician boy freind.
Then a guy named Nixon got to work...
2026: :) -> >:)
This was so insane that I thought it was an AI generation
It's poetic, not so sure about renaissance.
One dead, seven injured according to the BBC.
It’s so weird that they’re unsure whether to call it a terrorist attack:
it is not a terrorist attack because no rich people were hurt, obviously
It's a bit of a weird terrorist attack though. The whole thing about car bombs is that It's supposed to be a portable bomb. The idea is you get out before setting it off.
Also what's the point of blowing up the outside of one of his businesses, it wasn't like he was in there.
So it doesn't immediately feel like a terrorist attack.
The person who died was inside the vehicle, not that this makes it any better if it was an accident.
Wellp! Time for another recall!
Photo of the year
Set the bar so high we can all log off till next year.
Nov. 5, 2024 has been officially identified as the cause of the fire.
Nov. 5, 2024 could not be reached for comment.
Dumpster fire.
(Sad that someone died)
Or was killed by the awful design decision of AUTOMATICALLY LOCKING THE DOORS in the case of an accident. WITHOUT AN EASY TO REACH RELEASE MECHANISM INSIDE.
This type of design should be illegal. Several people have already died because of this idiocy.
This Cybertruck and the F150 from the attack in New Orleans were both rented from Turo. Also the explosion was insanely large. I'm thinking this is likely not a coincidence and the two may even be related.
lmao if it was a terrorist attack, but cybertrucks explode so often nobody noticed.
CNN is reporting that the truck was carrying a large amount of fireworks, gasoline and camping fuel. These appear to have been intentionally ignited. The truck drove past the site of the explosion an hour before returning. The truck exploded shortly after stopping.

Is there a source for them being rented from the same place? Seems like the kind of detail that probably wouldn't be out there at the moment, even if true.
The same app. Which means very little. It's like trying to connect people because they both used Uber.
I thought they were rented from the same company. Which is a bit like saying that a lot of bank robberies use the same ford truck. Yeah of course they do, because it's big, reasonably fast, and commonly available.
I really doubt it's relevant.
This is basically your life now for the coming 4 years America!
Nice bird of prey look to the top of the flame
The new dumpster fire.
AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.
This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.
👉 Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.
👉 Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".
👉 Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.
👉 The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.
👉 NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.
📸 If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.
👩🦯 Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.
