Viktor emerges from “a rough one yesterday” with the energy of a raccoon that found a Red Bull in a gas station dumpster. It’s Thursday. Survival is possible.

Weaponized repeatedly for sport. Backing into parking spots? Suspicious. Driving exactly the speed limit? A psychological experiment in rage induction.Then we pivot hard into criminal absurdity: a man burns down his townhouse trying to kill...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/b_rSbP-Fodsz9DfcFuAQ1C3nEabANC9ZvFydFbQVLrU/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9jMzI0/ZWMyZTgzNGU5NzQ1/OGI2MjQxNWY2MzE3/YWI4Yy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
