My current life goal is for my back to stop hurting so damn much. Ow. 😣

Like the brochure said, think of it like a car with a backpack.

Bid low. You never know.

Something for us sickos.

Figurines of Brady Bunch and Partridge Family fighting each other

I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.

Due to circumstances beyond my control I find myself supporting Ferrari, despite my general fondness for Lando Norris. It was nice to see them near the front, but there is still plenty of time for them to botch it. My only prediction is that Cadillac will do better than people expect. (ie, not last)

holy shit

This reminds me of that line I saw someone say once (which rang true) that something that makes Trump uniquely able to connect with low-information voters is that he is a low-information voter.

Nothing that money can’t fix.

So glad for all y’all.

Graham doing a pretty good imitation of Sen. Bloodfeast.

btw about that pixar thing, the reason why these people think having a conversation about gay people with kids is difficult is because they don't know a way to say to their kid "gay people are normal but you are not allowed to be one" without sounding like a bigot (there is a reason for that)

Old ICE out → EVs & PHEVs in.

It’s like the back and forth queues at Disneyland.

A GMC Envoy XUV, roof open, carrying a large piece of furniture.

Sorry, best I can do is an Envoy XUV.

Love to not drive my Corvette.

Last I checked, the Caesar’s Palace parking lot is still there.

I recently picked up a leftover 25 Heritage with a manual. I’m astounded that there is a business case for it but I’m enjoying the old school feeling.

Concur. I’ve met plenty of dumb shits with doctorate degrees. (I’m not excluding myself from this group.)

“Just received verbal govt approval for The Boring Company to build an underground NY-Phil-Balt-DC Hyperloop. NY-DC in 29 minutes.” - Elon Musk, July 2017

I generally like the way the EX30 looks but I cannot abide Volvo stepping back from safety by not having instruments in front of the driver.

Me, in high school English class: Symbolism is bullshit.

Me, now: 🤔

I’m not really interested in owning a new Rolls but I would love to go through the full process of specifying one.

Rolling into the weekend in my mid-engine Mustang.

Debadged, but why? 🤔
