My boy and I are assembling the wooden shoe boat we got in the Netherlands. We have messed up so many times and it’s hilariously fun.

Gonna go for four “last cars I took a photo of”. Side note: I don’t know enough to know if it’s real and my rule is not to ask.

Um, is this a problem with Mach-Es? I was at a red light. Level ground. Mach-E California Route 1 edition in front of me. Driver did not have foot on brake pedal (brake lights not on). And it was slowly rolling back towards me. I had to honk to get the driver’s edition.
