Why Motorcycle Sidecars Are Making a Comeback in 2026. AI-Generated.
Not too long ago, most people thought the motorcycle sidecar was basically history. Something you’d only notice in old photos or maybe parked outside a retro café for style points.

AI as a Reflective Surface
Much of the confusion surrounding artificial intelligence comes from treating it as an agent rather than a surface. When people speak about AI “doing the thinking,” “creating the ideas,” or “speaking for someone,” they are often projecting agency onto a system that does not possess intention, belief, or understanding. This projection obscures what is actually happening in many real-world uses. In those cases, AI is not acting as a source of meaning, but as a surface that reflects, redirects, and reshapes what is already present.

The Most Mysterious Signals from Deep Space Detected in 2026
The year 2026 has reinforced a long-standing truth in astronomy: the deeper we listen to the Universe, the stranger it becomes. Modern telescopes no longer simply observe distant stars and galaxies — they intercept brief, powerful, and often inexplicable signals that arrive from billions of light-years away. Some last only milliseconds, others pulse with eerie regularity, and a few originate from epochs when the Universe itself was still young.

The reason behind the early 2020s methane increase
Although methane levels have been rising for some time, the early 2020s were particularly noteworthy. According to a recent study, levels surged abnormally quickly for a quite annoying reason. According to the research, the atmosphere's ability to remove methane temporarily deteriorated while nature was producing more of it.
