It’s Wednesday. An AI-generated video imagining a fist fight between Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise has been making the rounds online, showing just how convincing modern deepfake and generative video tech has become. The clip stitches together hyper-realistic facial mapping, motion-capture-style choreography, and cinematic effects to create a totally fictional brawl that looks like it could be pulled straight from a big-budget action movie. While it’s clearly meant as entertainment, it’s also a reminder of how blurred the line between what’s real and what’s not has become when AI is involved.

It’s Tuesday. The Red Bull Soapbox Race is a delightfully chaotic downhill event where amateur teams design and build homemade, non-motorized carts, then send them flying down a steep course full of jumps, obstacles, and tight turns. Hosted by Red Bull, it’s as much about creativity and showmanship as it is speed—costumes, themes, and outrageous builds all count. The wilder the idea, the better. Expect ridiculous vehicles, epic wipeouts, and full-on festival vibes.

Today’s video rounds up 100 of the best crashes in Red Bull Soapbox Racing history. I can’t get enough of this stuff, and there’s a good chance you’ll get hooked too!

It’s Monday. Tyler Reddick won the 2026 Daytona 500 in dramatic fashion, passing for the lead on the final lap and surviving a late crash to grab the checkers in NASCAR’s biggest race. Driving for 23XI Racing, he led only the last lap but capitalized on chaos in the closing miles to beat Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (2nd) and Joey Logano (3rd), with Chase Elliott finishing 4th. The race featured multiple wrecks and a wild finish typical of Daytona, officially kicking off the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season. Hot damn tamale baby, NASCAR is back and all is good in the universe again!

Did everyone survive Valentine’s Day? I think I did it right this year. I grabbed the girlfriend her favorite pink roses and took her to a seafood place that we’ve been talking about forever. The food was so good we briefly considered ordering a second dinner, and the only thing that got buttered more than the scallops was my reputation as a halfway decent boyfriend. All in all, solid night, no complaints.
