every time some tech psycho giddily says unemployment could hit 30% soon I'm like ok man and then what. what happens after that usually. how about I give you fifteen minutes to skim wikipedia and then you can get back to me. its fine i'll wait

Had a very nice time talking about Alloy and old Toyotas with Bill Bradley of Three Point Four Media last week: theloop.substack.com/p/we-never-w...

The post office works in an extremely specific and fucked up way, it could be funded better but it's kinda a miracle it does work and you super don't want that shit to be privatized if you like sending or receiving anything.

I feel about mail carriers the way hog Americans feel about the troops and so when someone is like 'who cares if USPS is losing money?' it's like me I do.

i love going to the park and laying in the backseat of my beat up old corolla and cracking the windows and drinking a canned sugarfree caffeinated beverage of some kind. tgif

I think tonight's baseball results are a great example of how, with a little bit of a Therapeutic Reframe, we could all find ways to enjoy the American Century of Humiliation

wow we are arriving at the exact situation every single person imagined within one second of seeing their first robot dog

Guy who made 800 million dollars selling a website named ToodleCo to Yahoo in 1996 and has done nothing since then but now has $100 billion: the concept of “human kindness” was invented by bolshevik psychologists in 1953, no one heard of that term until then Podcast Host: fascinating, I have worms

billionaire being interviewed: i havent listened to a single note of music in 27 years. think about it, music was basically invented, what, maybe 50 years ago? interviewer: this is really interesting

The Amazing World of Tomorrow

had to break into a convo in the shop with "you guys are too good with hand tools to be arguing about spider-man like this"

this is going to be materially very bad for me and yet I love to see it

Booted into Windows for something and explorer crashed before it got to the desktop. The wheels are falling off man.

it's so depressing going from my laggy windows 11 laptop to my old-ass windows 10 desktop that's so fast by comparison it feels like it's from the fucking future

June and I had an idea for a bumper sticker and now it exists in real life

you can't make me know what the woke ginger is, I don't have to. this is labubus again, this doesn't matter

I'm sorry ma'am, but your son perished on Kharg Island in a valiant effort to create Wii Bowling meme videos for the White House X account. In the face of danger, he was not cringe; he was based to his last breath. Please have this commemorative Epic Fury challenge coin. Yes that's Punisher, ma'am

I respect Luigi of Mario & Luigi more than I do Mario, because while Mario is naturally gifted and full of courage Luigi is a timid humiliating creature who still endeavors to protect those around him

we have 3 younger jokesters in my mechanic class and as a group, they're very annoying, BUT. one of them is sweet. I can usually get him alone in the shop and then he'll ask me questions about the stuff we're learning, and then I get to draw him diagrams & explain concepts to him. hugely rewarding

geopolitically speaking, im just walking into home depot and grabbing shit and blindly waving my card at the pin pad

I took a couple hours and tried to articulate what we’re trying to do. We need more sites that aren’t terrible and we need more ways to fund them.

the onion newspaper is worth it for the ads

I’d be curious how many people (assuming we don’t end up in Mad Max because of it) are going to respond to the gas crisis by saying “give us the Cheapest Chinese EVs you got homie”

I don’t enjoy voice assistants or prompts because I need specificity in an OCD way and when a computer doesn’t do what I want it’s like watching someone fuck up a very easy video game. Torture.

remember to set your clocks tonight. time begins at 2 am

People straight up just wanna kill you with their big car. They love it. They get mad when they can’t do it. You’re messing up their streak.

Thinking about low res pikachu.
