Can't find the source now, but on Twitter someone memorably summed up Mr Beast with "When I look in the eyes of Mr Beast I find myself believing in the concept of a soul, purely from witnessing its absence"
This is so Wes Anderson, I can almost hear the affectless Jason Schwartzmann voiceover saying "My mother used to design undercover disguises for the Stasi"
Move over Hemingway, "Elon Musk, please help" clocks in at a cool four words
I see those a lot, it's baffling. "He didn't touch them, he just shared a bed with them!" ok but that's still bad

New American Apparel catalogue just dropped
Did you see the 4k remastered Rothkos
Everyone morning I log in and every morning The News hasn't happened and I won't sugarcoat it, it is a ~little disheartening

I used to work just around the corner from the house he gets abducted from, 1 Buckingham Palace. Stumbled upon it by chance while wandering aimlessly eating a Leon Korean chicken burger and recognised it immediately
