This is a healing grid by Japanese artist Ryota Kanai. If you stare at the center, the irregularities start to heal themselves because your brain strongly prefers to see regular patterns.

Mark Normand is the funniest working comedian in the game. They did a show where they intentionally set him up with the worst possible easily offended audience (Gen Z girls) and saw how he handled it. Comedy gold. 😂

Lewis Hamilton received lessons from Samurai artist, Tetsuro Shimaguchi, in Japan! “Back in the dojo 🇯🇵 So unreal to have a lesson with Tetsuro Shimaguchi, a legendary samurai artist. He choreographed all the sword fighting scenes in Kill Bill which is mad.” “One of my favourite films of all time. Our lesson took me way back and reminded me of when I did karate as a little kid. I first started having lessons to help me handle the bullies at school. It did more than teach me to defend myself, it instilled in me discipline, respect and humility. I took lessons every week for seven years and every class began with us kneeling and bowing to our sensei. I did the same yesterday to begin my lesson with Tetsuro.” “It's amazing in life when you have these full circle moments. I didn't understand why we had to bow when I was younger, but as I've grown up and learned to respect the tradition, I came to appreciate the beauty of the gesture. Thank you, Sensei, and thank you Tokyo for the beauty, culture and warm welcome.”
