Chrysler 300 in Shibuya

It's small, it's cute, it's targeted directly to me, and I feel strangely ambivalent about it.

The new Ferrari SUV thing is just a rebadged Toyota Crown SUV thing #changemymind

When in Tokyo, I suppose it's natural to find yourself walking out of the Seiko Dream Store with a brand new Speedtimer (and for a lot less than it costs in the US)

YASSS. Chevrolet Astro AWD street parked in Ginza! #itsvantime #weirdcarbs

I certainly have questions for the driver of this Jaguar X-Type in Tokyo

William Shatner wonders where he left his pickup truck in the Costco parking lot

Doritos Late Night -- it tastes like smoked ribs, fried chicken, club sweat, and desperate regret

Hyundai Santamo, aka Mitsubishi Expo

And they say there's no longer truth in advertising

I cannot stop thinking about the vast cultural chasm between a Hyundai that sells model Toyota AE86es in its flagship store versus Ford's CEO giving an interview complaining about emissions regulations.

It's really nice being in Korea where things just work, like the subways or democracy

This is a giant library in the middle of a mall in Seoul, one of the only places in the world you can read a physical copy of Car & Driver outside a dentist's office.

The library at Hyundai's Motor Studio is surprisingly broad in its content. I wouldn't expect to see a David Hockney book, for sure.

Hyundai's Motor Studio in Seoul is small but has some interesting stuff about the company's history. It's also a bit of a love letter to the car in general.

Hello RN24

TIL: at Hyundai's Motor Studio, you can buy a book about...Saab.

This is not a drill. Someone has made a Kia Ray EV Camper Van. #vanlife

Japanese microbrand Kuoe from Kyoto has a new studio in Seoul, and well, I may just have walked out of there with a curiously named new Sombrero compression diver on my wrist. They gave me free gifts including a mother of pearl business card holder and a leather watch tray, too.

Beef tartare and raw octopus: it's what's for dinner

I have zero chill with people coming into my mentions with dumb fuck opinions just because they're trying to be the Mayor of Dumbfuckistan

Mmm, that's tasty, what are those? Squid covered peanuts. Damn, let me have another

I regret to inform you that if you thought the Kia PV5 looked cool in photos, in person it's only about 100 times more rad -- especially on rally wheels. #itsvantime

Going to start a channel that's going to be nothing but cats that look sweet and lovely but are secretly still spicy feral and call it "It's A Trap!"

See, if they'd been driving a Nissan, they'd have made it across the entire course. And right through the clubhouse to keep on going. #BigAltimaEnergy

Dubai is betting big on experimental transport from U.S. startups, even though similar bets in the past collapsed without a single ride https://restofworld.org/2026/elon-musk-dubai-boring-company-robotaxi-regulation/?utm_campaign=row-social&utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=social

TIL: the base Tesla Model Y loses the weatherstripping that waterproofs the frunk on higher end models.

A+ State of the Union counterprogramming by TCM.

It's only 3,600 pages, and that's with the notes. That's 200 pages shorter than the Karl Ove Knausgaard My Struggle series!

Who cares what a Floridian thinks about NYC?

Shrinking must have one of the most stacked casts of any sitcom going.

Taking For Sale photos of watches with my Google Pixel 10, and without fail, the AI processes every single image either sideways or upside down.

Anyway, I have absolutely no idea what to do with this cat.

Fun fact: Twitter/X was never an important social media site to anyone outside the chattering classes who were addicted to getting likes

Probably one of the most informative videos I've seen on what's happening in Puerto Vallarta from the drag queen Hedda Lettuce who lives there:

It's truly incredible how difficult it has been getting information on what's actually happening in Puerto Vallarta right now from online sources.

I'll only make one quibble with this otherwise excellent thread: we've actually had 75 years of this shit, going back to the Lavender Scare of the 50s.

Imagine being an editor at Wired and thinking, what if we could the kind of "just asking questions" piece the New York Times likes to do for trans people, but instead made it about the gays?

Look, you don't know me from Adam, but I am ready to take his place in the #7 slot as a potential future King of England.

At some point, fans of the British Monarchy will need to face the fact that Queen Elizabeth II knew and did absolutely nothing.

Watch of the day is a Sheffield 1A 38 Black/blue. I've had a vintage one for a while, and finally got a new model from the brand revival to go with it. Very charming little piece for not a lot of money. $220 new, with a NH35. Comes on a black FKM strap with quick-release tabs.

Stellantis deserves its coming bankruptcy.

I'm glad to see someone saying the quiet part out loud: to achieve lower speeds and safer streets, we actually need to invest money into infrastructure that is designed to create this, not just engage in performative actions.

@glutelord.bsky.social is essentially giving a PhD dissertation in under two minutes on how modern incel culture is coopting a very narrow and weirdly specific gay sub-culture.

While I was in Germany, my IXDAO Warrior arrived. Tried taking an unboxing video for @tiredofcrazyshite.bsky.social, but not sure it turned out. This thing is seriously nice for the brand's first in-house design. Tissot/Citizen who?

Like why do people think it's OK to stream content on their phones without headphones? What is wrong with these people?

Pro-tip: when flying through the ATL, book a long enough layover to enjoy the world's best airport restaurant.

I now know how to clear US customs and get through security for a connecting flight in 20 minutes at ATL, which is final boss level shit in travel.
