Sleep on my alt text to your own detriment.

Does Mayor Frey not know Signal exists?

Does the Maryland DOT realize their logo is MOOT?

Toyota having a Temporary Restraining Order edition of some of their trucks is a similar issue.

Ugh, date should be 1993 when he was born.

He said "goes on to" and the next elected US President won't take office until January 2029, when Kirk would have been 35 (October 14, 2025).

The shooter misses but the bullet grazes Kirk's right ear and the maga base interprets that and Kirk's ensuing gauze bandage as a sign that he is the chosen one.

I'm sorry but was there a point you thought you could rely on Zuck?

Also, they're going to use AI for the results too.

Spoiler: It's just Colin's old CrossResults dot com race predicter.

Wait until you hear about AI shifting.

It does, but they've been gone for a little while and now they're back.

I don't know but, tubeless and disc brakes are two areas where "it worked in MTB" didn't apply.

Guangxi start lists are basically lists of who team management hates.

This is a good post, but also I've been tying ties my whole life and have never gotten good at adding the dimple. Do you have a favorite explainer for this?

JBV @jverheul.bsky.social · 1d

Wow, would never have thought of this as an issue. The product I use is one of the "better" ones they test, and I only have a few shakes per week, but still.

If you think that's dumb, let me tell you about the last time I visited the Mayo clinic. Zero condiments available there. Unbelievable.

Is it even a Pinarello if it doesn't have weirdly shaped tubes?

Second Robin's suggestion, but will add that if you can't get the cut to glue shut with krazy glue, another option (once you've patched it on the inside) is to fill the cut with shoe goo or something similar. I've run tires repaired like that for many miles.

This is a trick question. Ted Nugent released several compilation albums, but none were called greatest hits.

Rob is also clever and funny enough to be just sarcastic enough without going over the line.

Actual lol at the Bruno Armirail comment.

Yeah, he's thinking of a different flag. I wonder how Trek or the UCI would feel if he wore that one in races.

Also tbf, a number of people seem to think that term refers to the US flag.
