all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

oh yeah, and they have a cute sign

at a supper club called Possum Trot 3 hours from home. why? it's called Possum Trot, and that's cute. duh oh and they have live piano and it's @qazsxdr.bsky.social's birthday, I guess.

some more from the lab

this is like the 5th time, he's becoming exceptionally efficient at it

I lived binch

this is just @qazsxdr.bsky.social and I on an average weeknight. I'm certain our neighbors are thoroughly traumatized by now, poor bastards

finally getting around to actually doing something with the scans from the lab and realizing I forgot to turn the date burner off :/ guess I'll just have to go back to western colorado to try again lol

phew!

TIME TO SET SAIL IN ME SCHOONER (ford ranger) TO DEPOSIT ME DUBLOONS (cash from furnace sale) AT ISLA DE MUERTA (the credit union) I HOPE FOR SAFE PASSAGE AND NO BATTLES WITH THE BRITISH NAVY (Wyoming police)

Date night xp

Finally got my 110 film processed ^3^

so I guess Midwest Film Co just uploads photos to a service that doesn't use any authentication/password? and that wouldn't be so bad if it was like a long URL with random characters.... but it's just 6 digits, and incrementing it up shows other people's photos 😬

Met the chillest cat on MARTA today!

that would explain the noise just going to order an entire rear end, they're not too expensive

Selling my 1998 Honda Goldwing GL1500. Ready to ride. 123,000 miles. 1500cc 6 cylinder. Heated handgrips, Bluetooth audio (needs better speakers). Air ride works, front shocks are a little rough. $2200

I got to drive Death Road in Bolivia a few days ago!

$1,400 later for their annual checkup+shots+meds. the car I took them in cost less 💀

their collars go on and the Violent Excited Shaking commences (they know collars means car time and seeing people)

desert trip

I'm getting sick of looking into my rear view at every red light/junction and the person behind cannot go 2 seconds without stimulation and has to look at their phone. It's literally every day and multiple times, I always check. I'd say at least 25% of you are doing this habitually and HAVE TO STOP.

things ain't felt the same since the colorado trip. it feels lonelier than ever here in the midwest

Reading about automobile accidents and the myriad ways that the human factor is at play, and, man.... the accepted norm that you should be reachable by phone at all hours and that it's fine to take phone calls *while driving* has a lot to answer for.

To commemorate this big trip with @skal666.bsky.social and @crissdragon.bsky.social, I commissioned this wonderful piece by @leggy2fast.art! 💜 It started out as stick figures on a post-it and turned into THIS :D Raf was incredible and captured so many amazing details, I can't stop looking at it!

I have wrapped up (for now) my KillerBody R31 skyline RC drift shell and I am in love with how it came out. This has been such a fun project and I'm already excited to start planning my next shell.

wow, you sure showed that transphobe with <100 followers and "NO DMS" in bio with that quote dunk! and you also showed me their stupid post, so thanks for that, asshole

yeah

My good friend Bob Ethington has put out a new jazz LP. Here's the video! Riding on Ohio country roads & the streets of my hometown, Akron. You can recognize both landscapes from my books. Featuring Terry Hynde on sax, longtime member of the Numbers Band, and the big brother of Chrissie Hynde!

"please let me die" "No"

Sitting and watching the rain from the garage with my new bestest bud

A posskin rogue for TurTheBull!

... it just occurred to me that meteors would probably give off a lot of IR. I need to capture a meteor shower with one of my full spectrum cameras now.

TAILPIPE S2, EP.1 New season, new car :3

Still thinking about those folk I only spent a couple passing minutes with, talking about the love of seeing new places and creating new stories from the back of two wheels. I can't forget them and the smile and enthusiasm they had about the road and the characters you find on it.

These look amazing going sideways.

The 600cc sport bike, in its natural environment….

I think not having anyone to talk to over infrared kinda dampens my enthusiasm for it. Like, yeah I get compliments and interest, but it's not the same as talking details "how do you color correct tree trunks? Mask or scoop out the IR curve?"

#artfight2025 revenge for SCTCHKNG 🏎️

Been seeing a lot of these fellas lately, doesn't look like any local service I'm familiar with. Wonder if the manufacturer is nearby.
