I don't consider myself exceptionally bright but I'm really hating how stupid everyone seems to be around me.

Got bit by the GAS and bought a new amp. I'm both excited and also probably didn't need it. But it's cool as shit.

The survey questions are *extremely* biased, so this will not be a fun experience, but I think it is worth it.

Well now you are going to have to change the mud-flaps on your truck.

Hmm? Sorry, couldn’t hear you. It’s a little loud in here.

I really hope them money laundering the same dollar through chipmakers, cloud providers, and such doesn’t come home to roost.

Why I’m glad my account has no redeeming qualities or insights that would make it to that feed.

What could possibly go wrong with your *belt buckle* being your key fob?

Keep losing your key fob? Ford’s new “Truckle” is the answer.

Keep your pants up and your F-150 unlocked at the same time.

Fascinated looking at Rose by Sig Sauer. I’m all for more women in firearms but this just seems to be a way to sell glittery rose gold magazines and guns with rose gold triggers and such.

‼️ Read @kevinhfoster.bsky.social's posts from last night and note how the protest in front of ICE had been peaceful, with little to no interaction with feds, until the right-wing propagandists and influencers showed up.

A crowd of right-wing agitators just stormed through chanting “Whose streets? Our streets.” A woman appears to have been shoved to the ground (hear clothes were dirty and hand had a small cut). A right-wing man may have been punched.
