So many electric cars now are looking like, well, normal cars

If I was buying an electric car I'd want one that looks small and goofy like this

No idea what it is, but it looks fun

"his box was too smol but he still sits!"
"fucking humans"

Their plane required a headwind to take off at all, I mean yeah, props to them for getting off the ground at all

But who should get more credit is Alberto Santos-Dumont, his plane could actually fly with just its own power
