The Radar (news and shit)

• AI bots now beat 100% of those traffic-image CAPTCHAs. Guess it can find the buses on its own now.

• Pretty hardcore: Florida Sheriff Urges Non-Evacuating Residents to Write Their Info on Their Bodies for ID After Hurricane Helene Hits. How about that? Wanna stay home? Better whip out the Sharpie.

• Proof we live in a simulation: Hawk Tuah Girl Podcast hits number 3.

• Staying Up Pays Off!? Night Owls Proven to Be Mentally Sharper Than Early Risers

• Spotify AI Playlist creator is now available in the US. Gonna use it?

Lookie Here (cool shit)

• Badass little off-roader you may have ever heard of (Pajero Mini).

What’s your favorite movie quote that just goes too hard? (let’s be social)

Think what you want about the 2009 Watchmen flick, but the “I’m not stuck in here with you, you’re stuck in here with me.” scene with Rorshach is pretty f’n metal. Jackie Earle Haley is severely underrated.

Visuals (cool images)

Wildcard (various shit)

When it comes to tunes, I’ve listened to (and enjoyed) a bit of everything from Garth Brooks 🤠 to Cannibal Corpse 🤘 (which couldn’t have a more wholesome lead). I always appreciate a recommendation that may send me deep down a rabbit hole of drum and bass. This week, I’d like to extend two suggestions:

🎹 Fever Ray (Spotify) - an alias of Karin Dreijer of Swedish duo the Knife has a super ethereal quality that is also wildly aggressive. You may have heard the haunting theme song for Vikings. That was Fever Ray.

🎹 Ghost (Spotify) - Singer/founder Tobias Forge says “"I Always Wanted GHOST to Sound Like The One Band from the 70s You Haven't Heard." I truly think they are the single band making ‘rock’ right now. The new live film/album Rite Here, Right Now is 🔥🔥 (that’s how the kids say badass, I think).

One last thing…

Hot damn, don’t forget - Pereira vs. Roundtree @ UFC 307 Sat, Oct 5 / 10:00 PM EDT Someone is probably going night-night 🗿Chama!
