@lexikaleiia by @tjkaleiia   The Rise and Fall of the Jetpack It rose. But not for long. And when it fell, it dropped 10 feet onto a concrete floor, fracturing the knee of its pilot. The first jetpack was actually called a rocket belt. So it has made progress, just in branding, not in flying. Humans are bad flyers.  But when has being bad at something ever stopped us?   Up to 50% Off Nike Gear. We Repeat. Up to 50% Off Nike Gear.

There’s plenty to see right outside the museum. Mostly, travel influencers posing in front of the glass triangle. Some contort as they awkwardly attempt to situate their selfie-sticks at pleasing angles. Some have full-blown production crews with them. Mona Lisa was kind of an influencer.  And like modern day ones, she has copycats.   Larry David’s Last Stand We haven’t watched the final season of Curb yet. Calm down. We know. We’ll get to it, okay? We’ve been a little busy moving to a new city. Oh. Well, we just thought of something perfect. We’ll wait until we’re moved into the new place, and the last season of Curb can be the first thing we binge watch in it.  Remember the Seinfeld finale?   The Who’s Who of Beer Cool We were at a wine bar with some friends last night, and there was a THC seltzer on the menu. It tasted like a popsicle. But we’re not even sure what flavor. Just generic popsicle. Like those red, white, and blue ones. Bomb pops? Are they still called that?  Anyway, THC beverages. They’re coming for the cool beers. Calling it now.   The Mixer This A-Team van. The 15 most bizarre items found in lost luggage in 2023.
