“Clark Gable's 1938 Packard Eight ‘Darrin’ Convertible Victoria. There were news stories at the time (which may or may not be true) that Gable had to sell the car shortly after purchasing it because he and the car would attract too much attention--with women constantly following him or trying to jump in the car from the street. Probably a bit of an exaggeration. Photos from Bonhams and RM Sothebys.” - Hollywood Garage

The image is a screenshot of a mobile website page promoting "Graphene Aluminium Batteries" by a company called "GMG". The page has a dark gray background. At the top, there's a logo with the letters "GMG" in white, with "Graphene Manufacturing" written in small font below. The main headline on the page reads "Graphene Aluminium Battery". Below that, there's text stating "HOME > GMG GRAPHENE PRODUCTS > GRAPHENE ALUMINIUM BATTERY". A section titled "PIONEERING TECHNOLOGY" features the text "A significant step closer to reality." Further down, there are three bullet points listing "Compares with Lithium-Ion Batteries", "Interchangeable", and "Rechargeable". Below those are the words "No Lithium or rare earth materials – uncomplicated supply chain”. At the bottom, there's a navigation bar with icons for "Home", and a link to "graphenemg.com".

in reply to This spaceship does not exist • • •A digitally rendered, wide-angle view depicts a futuristic cityscape dominated by a large, cylindrical spacecraft resting horizontally within a dense urban environment. The spacecraft is white and appears heavily textured or weathered, with several circular openings and protruding engine components. Surrounding the spacecraft are numerous tall, gray buildings with varying geometric shapes and visible signs of wear, creating a sense of urban decay. Several figures are scattered throughout the scene, appearing small in comparison to the architecture and spacecraft. The overall color palette is cool-toned, predominantly blues and grays, with a slightly hazy or atmospheric quality.
