Literally half of my daughter’s school district is out with Flu B. That seems bad.

in america, if you go over your 3 minute allotment to speak, men with guns come to take you away.

It actually bizarre how hard it is to keep your kid involved in a sport that they enjoy but don't want to make their career. My daughter enjoys softball, she's good enough to play but she is not going to be a D1 athlete but the youth sports system makes it seem like thats the goal for EVERYONE.

One of the things that personally drives me crazy in the U.S. is how youth sports/athletic activities went from a part of the public good (municipal leagues and fields! rec centers! public parks!) to a privatized, expensive, highly competitive, highly structured pursuit for wealthy kids’ résumés

I’ve been trying to make the motto of our little hamlet to be “The Paris of Burlington County”

Whole Foods AI stores were entirely Indians watching on video feeds and ringing you up. Waymos have live human support partially driving them. And the AI that has “Hollywood shaking in its boots” is…stock footage. With face replacement. Yeah. We are sooooooo cooked, AI bros. Call me when it works.

The Polestar4 wagon will solve the rear window stupidity. I hope they throw in some physical controls while they are at it. Between this and the Subaru/toyota Twins we will have an abundance of slightly tall electric wagons soon. www.evshift.com/404895/an-el...

In this house we only recognize black trim on cars with poverty spec bumpers.

I’m going to throw a repair sleeve on this leaking Volvo 240 transmission output flange/shaft. I don’t feel an imperfection but you can see the wear groove.

For some reason this post makes me think of a little rant my friend went on about how he hates Trump but he can’t make life decisions based on politics because politics doesn’t effect him. Also the country was stuck with a horrible choice between an evil man and a woman.

People on Marketplace recreating Cardle by accident. Behold the BMW Unsure. The description just says “something’s wrong with the radiator, take a look”

Sent Lauren this auction for a 300TE that the owner claims once belonged to Jimmy Fallon. "Will it make me unfunny?" fair to say shes not impressed. (also I don't think she wants a wagon) bringatrailer.com/listing/1995...

At least here in the Northeast a lot of those warehouses WOULD have been housing if towns did not adopt NIMBY zoning to try to keep new housing out.

After these last few weeks 40 degrees is plenty warm to grill some steaks.

If you lost South Jersey Jawns like this you lost America.

Convinced my wife is she wants an old Mercedes she actually needs to go look at some. We plan on checking out this 300SE tomorrow.

When I was at the auto show with a friend they were like “I don’t like that everything is hybrid, what about reliability?!” How many busted 15 year old Priuses do you see still driving around? “Well…. A lot”

It’s a small thing but I think the world be 5% better if we just made everyone fly commercial by law. There would have to be an agency that made sure nothing nicer than business class exists.

Winter Saab maintenance done now the Volvo is up on the QuickJack. Finally going to address the leaking overdrive shaft seal. I’ll replace the driveshaft carrier bearing and bushing while everything is down.

I want to keep Wood Shop as screen free as possible so I am breaking out the ancient technology.

This is pretty great I’m just worried that if they can’t cast Ana de Armas, Statham’s dead wife won’t be hot enough. aliensideboob.substack.com/p/my-pitch-t...

How many non-Buicks have been improved by the full black out treatment?

A survivor Camry with surprisingly few rust holes.

My daughter — possibly the biggest 10 year old fan of the Polestar brand in the US is asleep with fever. But I’ve acquired a Hot Wheels Polestar moon buggy so she should be happy when she wakes up in the morning.

I've been teaching middle school for a long time, and I beg you to keep your tweens off group chats. Yes I know their friends are there. Yes I know they will miss out. Their brains are not ready --- trust me.

There is a mysterious man who moved in about three years ago across the street. He painted the house all black and only really comes out on Halloween to generously hand out full sized candy bars. Anyways he’s my daughter’s new pediatric dentist.

Long story but we were worried about someone coming around the house we didn’t want so we bought a ring camera. It felt exactly like a opt-in mental illness, we sent it back.

Jon Bon Jovi you have betrayed New Jersey.

Deploying the Polestar2’s top secret take out hook.

Shout out to the 1% of my viewers on YouTube who are female.

I’m not a EV evangelist, get whatever car works for you. But I have had a few people tell me they can’t buy an EV because they want to be ready if “shit hits the fan.” And it just seems self evident to me that electricity is more universal than gasoline. This some solar panels in the trunk.

I’ve been trying really hard not to complain about the weather, but as always the podcasters are correct. This weekend broke me, the weather is extremely bullshit.

The exotic car dealer in Newark that does a lot of Brazilian market stuff currently has a fun pair of 80’s Fiat Hatchbacks up for sale.

We’ve invented a system that communicates with you in plain English, understands everything you say, and does everything for you. For £10 billion, we’ll train you how to use it.

About once every 5-8 years the rivers of New Jersey really freeze up and these things appear. The level of patience, extra space, extra money and kookiness required to pull this off is impressive.

They delivered my new car part in this box that was conveniently labeled for porch pirates.

It’s somehow even goofier looking in real life.

EVs have terrible efficiency in the winter! Meanwhile our 175HP Outback.

I had to post a selfie to Instagram to obtain this SEPTA swag. I don’t have to look at it so it was worth it.

Some last thoughts from the Philly Auto Show. The Kia K4 hatchback was nice and had a genuinely low sporty hatchback seating position

Polestar 4 —- In a Color!! If the 4 works it should be a (relative) hit. It’s a really nice package.

Everyone who comes up to it LOVES it. Maybe they should not have made it $80,000

Tesla has a full display at the Philly auto show. This is not good for Tesla.

The Trailseeker is nice, perfect size. It’s what the Outback should be.

I’m no political expert but I feel like my feed being completely filled with “OMG the Democrats won a red seat in Texas” and “The Feds just tear-gassed a bunch of peaceful families” might not be a coincidence.

Interesting day for introverts. I’m realizing I don’t have what it takes to suck up and socialize my way to wealth and power. I will also never find myself caught up with a cabal of pedophiles. I guess we should take the win.

So if I'm reading the tea leaves correctly Epstein was not only a pedophilic cruise director for all the world's worst people, he was also their racist Yoda?

I must be starting to go crazy from lack of vitamin D, because this listing seems tempting. www.facebook.com/share/1DViCv...
