In addition to the more modern electric powertrain, there's also a more up-to-date electronic architecture and infotainment system coming in the updated Bolt.

It’s back! The 2027 Chevy Bolt gets an all-new LFP battery, but what else?

255 miles of range, new infotainment, but where did all the torque go?

They Live is a fantastic film but every time I introduce it to a Gen Z friend I'm reminded that the plot boils down to, "two hobos carry out a series of workplace mass shootings because they believe half the population are aliens wearing human skin"

I would use class time to write my papers because otherwise I would be bored and fall asleep from fatigue because I would be out until the bars close, playing videogames until the sun came up or running/playing basketball until 4.
Finals week I would be in the gym or exams.

I wrote a 10-page paper in the middle of a frat party (they were my neighbors, very cool dudes), finished, and proceeded to take a bottle of Hennessy to the head to celebrate completing it.

I got a B.

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you.
You people couldn't hang with real slackers.

Republican Senators, with an assist from Sen. John Fetterman, voted down an attempt to block the Trump administration’s missile strikes on alleged Venezuelan drug boats. interc.pt/4o9CBur

A photo of Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., sits on the steps of the U.S. Capitol on Oct. 1, 2025, in Washington, overlaid with the headline, "Fetterman Is Sole Democrat to Vote Against Blocking Caribbean Drug Boat Attacks," and the DEK, "It was the first time members of Congress were put on record about whether they supported or opposed the president’s war in the Caribbean."

There is a music genre I think about. It is very specific. There will be an example below. Music made by someone who sounds as if he grew up sneaking and listening to his parents laugh while they smoked weed and makes music for people that smoke weed and listen to Lauryn Hill and D'Angelo weekly.

For years I passively wondered if Prussia was related to Russia etymologically or more. Hours ago I heard the word Preussen/Preußen, the German word. Checked the Russian word for Russia. Rossiya. Okay. Curious. Wiktionary confirms. Preussen might mean the land next to Rus. Ah.
