Hyundai Scoupe! 🚕 Thanks to @appwerks.com for the correct answer. Not sure exactly what year/variant. But the best clue is the five point star wheels. And gray bottom trim. (It was an automatic, not manual.)
Internet… I need your help identifying this car. It's a mid-late 1990s sedan, bright yellow (not neon tho, more golden ish) —— I can't figure out the make/model. I'm using this detail in story I'm writing. 🚨 Let's play… Name This Car™ 🎉
Social media never misses I’ve been called a lot of things in my life. But this!?

"Your last next editor" is some really great writing ⭐️ Whoever at Zed wrote that A+! Great job. Sincerly.

"It's like podcasts — but for reading" Funny turn of phrase / sign of the times. - - - Whereas in mid-aughts, it was: "It's like blogs — but for listening"
I love that to express "mobile, adventure, off-grid", the canonical best way to do that is a photo of a Vanagon out in nature somewhere 🚐🏔️ (Not an endorsement of Amazon Leo)
#Photography friends, name these cameras. (Just for fun. No urgency or pressure). In Fall Out Boy's "This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race" at 1:41 youtu.be/GNm5drtAQXs?si=J67H3...
This post explains the Imperial probe droid back story in good detail kitbashed.com/blog/moebius
Famously the probe droid in The Empire Strikes Back is a very obviously influenced by the Moebius robot starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Vipe...
In The World of Krypton #1 (1987), the green flying bots are very reminiscent of the Moebius droid from The Long Tomorrow
