I heard someone say, “that’s good enough for the time being.”
Who is the time being? And how do we know what their standards are? 🤔

If you order from your car at the root beer stand and leave the engine running the whole time you’re there, you are a menace to society.

Has anybody on weird car Bluesky heard of the Roundheadlamp Rally 1000? I've been curious about it ever since I parked my Jag next to a Lancia Scorpion that was sporting the RHR1K sticker.
One of the groups involved just put out this video. Solid wrenching.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Have phones gotten worse at being phones? I've been making lots of calls to deal with storm damage from a tree falling on our house, and I've had at least two or three calls now where the person on the other end was almost completely unintelligible.

I realized the other day that the oldest piece of advice I’ve received which came from firsthand experience was probably when my great-grandpa told me that if you have a car with wooden spokes, it’s best to park it in a creek now and then to let the wood soak and prevent cracking.

It is unacceptable that in the year 2025, microwaves are still being built which don't stop beeping when you open the door.

A week ago, we had several inches of snow and subzero temperatures. Today I hand-washed my car.
