I was walking to the boxing gym from my car today, and a flying pigeon crossed my path. For one glorious second, I was in the Temu version of a John Wu film.

McLaren 2015: We have the best chassis in F1, it’s Honda’s fault our car is slow.

Aston Martin 2026: We have the best chassis in F1, it’s Honda’s fault our car is slow.

Lawrence Stroll copied the 2019
Mercedes and now he’s copying 2015 excuses.

Spoilers for IndyCar at St. Pete but this is the most sarcastic camera shot.

I hate my goddamn job

A Better Tomorrow II should have been called “A Better Better Tomorrow” because it was better than the first.

FEATURE What happens when you lose your work libido

hey quick question how do we fix whatever cultural circumstances made this sentence possible

After some analysis I've concluded F1 could stand to be a little gayer

TLADILA is a perfect movie, like Ronin. Also like Ronin, it has an amazing car chase that Hollywood just can’t seem to do anymore. Even Beverly Hills Cop 2 had a better one than anything I’ve seen recently

I need this poster on my bedroom wall

Please listen to me at work. I know enough to at least consider what I say.

Where are all those VetBro white savior types that illegally police the third world under the guise of “stopping human trafficking”? Seems like they’ve got plenty of work to do at home right now.

Listicles need to stop telling me to “upgrade” stuff. My toothpaste is fine, my deodorant is fine, my socks are fine and my silicone butt plugs are fine.

It’s never happened for me before but I also never followed these instructions:

The person I tried to buy a weighted blanket from on Facebook marketplace has been unresponsive since yesterday and I need a coping mechanism like a weighted blanket to deal with this anxiety 😅

Just one man’s opinion, but that kind of wordplay is a direct line to my funny bone

This guy gets the award for the best handle I’ve ever seen in 20 years of social media

Jamelle Bouie slinging my favorite insult:

I would watch Adam Sandler perform in an Oscar bait movie where he plays an aged Canteen Boy with PTSD who needs to confront Alec Baldwin’s sexuality abusive scout master character. I’m torn on whether or not he still retains the ability to summon snakes though.

Please stop pitching wellness apps to me. I don’t need to improve my life by thinking differently about anything. I need to be less aware about everything.

Leaders 2 or 3 levels above me wanted to talk on a consistent cadence because I knew what they didn’t: what our users need. It was implied I would be rewarded for my knowledge and experience. Rewarded for taking a huge pay cut to work at a startup, but I don’t feel rewarded. More like exploited.

2 people at work whose success I was hoping to replicate (those with operations experience who then transitioned into a product management roles) have now been fired and it feels like a door to my future has just been shut. How nice it would be for one’s optimism to not be tied to their GD job

The Quietest New Year On celebration without spectacle

I drank some expensive champagne one night with some friends. That was the whole point of what we did to ring in the new year, nothing more.

Tesla drivers will blow past you on the right side when driving on the freeway because to them, 10mph over the limit is too slow, but they won’t maintain that momentum around curves because they fear rolling over and being trapped in burning wreckage thanks to poorly designed doors built by scabs.

lolz

OMG - the cryptocurrency in-question was going to be called “Akoin”, this is some Mr. Wongburger level BS

I just found out that Akon tried to build a crypto-fueled “real life Wakanda” in Senegal and somehow it didn’t work and was never finished. I’m baffled

The most stress-inducing words in the English language are “see me”, but only in the context of seeing them written on a graded elementary school test.

This is insane. The guy who shot Charlie Kirk was a gamer bro American born citizen from a MAGA family. The government didn’t punish Discord users, or Helldivers 2 players, or white MAGA families. This is wrong!!
