My first thought was "this is the timeline where biff got the almanac" Doesn't even look that similar to the movie(yet?), must be a similar feeling i suppose

This Cybertruck and the F150 from the attack in New Orleans were both rented from Turo. Also the explosion was insanely large. I'm thinking this is likely not a coincidence and the two may even be related.

lmao if it was a terrorist attack, but cybertrucks explode so often nobody noticed.

Imagine if it was planned as a terrorist attack, but the cybertruck just did that on its own.

Is there a source for them being rented from the same place? Seems like the kind of detail that probably wouldn't be out there at the moment, even if true.

The same app. Which means very little. It's like trying to connect people because they both used Uber.

CNN mentions Turo - A ride rental service where you can put your personal vehicle up for daily rental.

I haven't seen it mentioned in relation to this incident though.

If they were used for both vehicles; it's probably just because it was a convenient way to get a vehicle. They probably have less hurdles than a typical rental service. I haven't actually used or really looked into that service though, so I may be wrong there.

CNN is reporting that the truck was carrying a large amount of fireworks, gasoline and camping fuel. These appear to have been intentionally ignited. The truck drove past the site of the explosion an hour before returning. The truck exploded shortly after stopping.

AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.

This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".

๐Ÿ‘‰ Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.

๐Ÿ‘‰ The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.

๐Ÿ“ธ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿฆฏ Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.
