"BeReal." FOSS alternative? Yes please! (programming.dev)
I like the concept of the iOS/Android app BeReal. Your app tells you randomly during the day that you have to take a combined picture (frond and back camera). So you don’t have much time to prepare. Then this pic is uploaded and friends who follow you can see it....

Humvee limousines kind of look like what would happen if giant tour busses could take a massive poop.
Once you see it you can never unsee it
Bald people save a lot of money on shampoo.
