Tesla is facing issues with the bare metal construction of the Cybertruck, which Elon Musk warned was as tricky to do as making Lego bricks

    I hate Elon as much as the next guy, but I have to admit that that car looks pretty good and aesthetic. Damn.

        Agreed! Or maybe a 90’s Hot Wheels toy… Maybe that was the point though 🤔

      Can I ask a question that may sound snarky and snobby over internet text, but I’m genuinely and non-judgmentally curious about?

      Where did this use of “aesthetic” come from? From context it appears to mean something different in your sentence (good “look” or style that is on trend and I like) than I understood it to mean (“look” or style referring to an encompassing cohesion instead of a qualitative assessment).

      This language enthusiast is curious. Language changes and that’s cool, but this seems to confuse the term rather than disambiguate. Can you explain what you mean by it, and do you remember where you learned to use the word that way? Is it a regionalism?
