šŸ”Š Open Tabs #003 — Lenny Kravitz, Chihuahuas & One Wild Accent

From margaritas on heads to Kravitz’s design temple — and one guy who couldn’t stop doing an Aussie accent.

Well, well, well. It’s Friday — a Good Friday, if you will — and we’re closing the week out here at Open Tabs by getting you ready for the weekend. This was our maiden voyage, our first foray into the big bad world of newsletters. And honestly? It was pretty darn fun.

I would be remiss if I didn’t highlight that Sunday is both 4/20 and Easter. I cannot think of two groups who mesh less — but also, it sounds hilarious. Kids searching for Easter eggs while stoners searching for where they put their damn car keys.

And shoutout to Passover too — which also ends on the 20th! This is like the holiday equinox or something. What the hell??

But anyway, you’re here for some scroll-worthy content — not the triple crown of holidays.

šŸ˜Ž Vibe Shift

Let’s get this party started with some… margaritas, perhaps?

You really have to admire the skills of this waiter. Not one, but four margaritas on his head?! You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like. And the table barely noticed him!

Or maybe you’d rather relax by the pool? How about this chihuahua living everyone’s best life — getting serenaded by a mariachi band. Iconic.

And it looks like she enjoyed it! šŸ“ @Private Villas Mexico

If you’re not trying to relax, turn up with Ace and his Pakistani dance crew. Anytime he pops up on my feed it’s always a fun video where he’s giving dance lessons to a new group of people. No clue how he fell into this niche where he goes live with Pakistani dancers — but I’m glad he did. They’re becoming mini celebs back in Pakistan, and the effort they put into learning the choreo is so much fun to watch. Just good vibes all around.

How did the boys and I do ? šŸ˜‚#jokess #trending #streaming #michaeljackson #explorepageāœØļø #forurpage

šŸ“ŗ Screen Time

Today I learned Tig Notaro has zero idea who any celebrity is — and it’s kind of amazing. Here she is trying to guess who Julie Bowen is (you know, Modern Family, Happy Gilmore). It’s impressive how little she knows. So much so, Funny or Die made a whole show about it.

DuckTales theme song: best ever? I came across this TikTok of someone giving it a blind listen and wow — the 80s kid in me is alive. I’d get home at 3pm, catch DuckTales, then straight into Darkwing Duck. The nostalgia is thick right now. What was your go-to theme song?

@mitchthepanthersfan

Replying to @Ratty505 yall think this number one? šŸ‘€

Also — if you haven’t watched Love On The Spectrum, I can’t recommend it enough. There are so many reality TV shows out there these days it can be hard to figure out what to watch, but this show is a true gem. People with autism navigating dating with humor, insight, and major heart. Especially Connor — dude is always coming in with the most unexpectedly witty one-liners.

šŸŽ§ Is It a Banger?

This one is unequivocally a banger.

While working on OT #002 at a coffee shop in East Austin, they were playing 90s Hip- Hop. And suddenly, the clouds parted — and the perfect track descended: ā€˜93 Til Infinity.

There’s something about that beat — it’s simple but it hits every damn time. And the way they flow over it? Chef’s kiss. It never gets old.

But if it did? Good news — I got something fresh. The Souls of Mischief x Red Bull collab where they put updated lyrics over the same iconic beat. I love these connections like this because it’s great to see them 30+ years later still rapping. When a massive brand like Red Bulls taps you on the shoulder to come to their studios and record a new freestyle over the beat? Yeah, that’s legacy certified. Even sicker, 6 minutes—ONE TAKE.

😭 I'm Not Crying, You're Crying!!

This came across my feed Wednesday and yeah — it got me.

A little kid gets to meet his idol, Nikola Jokic… and it just keeps getting better. One of those rare, actually pure internet moments. You will tear up.

And this second one? I caught the first video of Simon paying for a young designer to design a dress for his wife. Now the follow up is she’s got the designs ready to go — but she doesn’t know how to sew. So what does he do? Sends her to a sewing course and buys her a sewing machine. The only caveat is she has six weeks to learn that and make the dress. Let's go. Authentic, wholesome, amazing. 5.8 million likes!!

šŸ›‹ļø Lenny Kravitz’s Apartment Is a Work of Art

I came across this video tour of Lenny Kravitz’s apartment and I don’t throw this word around often but it is just exquisite. I find architecture and design soothing in an analytically kind of way. I know someone spent hours and hours figuring out how to make this room or object absolutely perfect so when I look at something that is pleasing to the eyes you also know they had to do work on the backend with math and logic.

If you want a look into how one of the coolest mfers on the planet lives in his not so humble abode, video is below.

🦘 Got Stuck in an Accent… for Nine Months

And since it’s the weekend — we gotta keep things a little unhinged.

Albeit a bit chaotic… this is still a total flex.
This American guy starts doing an Australian accent while traveling to Indonesia— just for fun — and then just keeps going. Like… for nine months. Fully locked in.

The way he tells it? The random details, the delivery — it’s so convincing, I don’t even think AI could fabricate something this specific.

It’s either the greatest bit of all time, or this man actually glitched himself into a new personality. Either way — certified High-Key Flex.

@lookitseric_

One of the most insane situations I’ve heard #auzzie #accent #indonesia #storytime

And after week one of Open Tabs... the internet stays undefeated. šŸŒ€
Have a great weekend — see y’all Monday!

Gonna go open 43 more tabs now. āœŒļø
