Maybe we can get a single green white checker like NASCAR? One shot though and they waive the ending fuel requirements.

@superberry4u.bsky.social It's hard to read, but it was a vanity plate that said 'GAM3RGRL' and for some reason it reminded me of you.

I've got Paws up and moving again! It felt weird working on it again but I'm bringing it to Indy PopCon and hopefully I'll be able to let people drive it (without a weapon of course)

Working on Penny for PopCon, with an elastic back support brace and a tens unit, because I won't let back spasms stop progress.

I don't think she's a fan, but she looks adorable.

May 9th I'm going to be at Indy PopCon for the Circle City Clash. I'm not sure if I'll be competing with Frank or Penny Pick-Up, but probably the latter. (minus the mecanum wheels)

Sorry to anyone who was excited to see me Paws at Sword today. My mom passed away the other day and I've been dealing with all of that. I'm still planning on attending the June NHRL event.

For as much money as F1 makes you would think they could figure it out on screen graphics.

So, who's going to primary @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social because they don't represent NY values. They deserve to lose.

There are no nice things to say about this. I'm full of rage and don't know how to express it without ending up on a watch list.

Please @aoc.bsky.social run for president in 2028. We need a Democrat who isn't going to play nice. I'm tired of pacifist Dems who are afraid of breaking the norms. Look at what is happening, and it's because *they* don't play by the rules. Lives are being destroyed and we need real action.

I've got a chassis all ready! There have been a few small changes, but we're ready to kick butt next weekend.

After getting wrecked by Chonkiiv at the NHRL event, the original Mouse Mouse has retired after being repaired (mostly). It's been through a ton of rumbles, been repaired, lost an ear, and been a good friend. But it's got a new home because if I have it it'll go fight again and it's earned the break

It was a long exhausting day yesterday, but it was a lot of fun. She got beat up, but my opponents were both super great about it and we hopefully put on a great show. I think the plan is still to have this be a one time bot but thank you to everyone who said they loved it!

I'm really struggling to find my place. I know what I enjoy, and what I want to do, but I can't make a living with it, especially in the middle of nowhere.

Even when I download an indie game and don't care for it, I don't ever refund anything on steam. They are the ones building the games you fall in love with, so help keep them employed.

Gertrude had a great day yesterday. She got to play with another puppy and get tons of attention. She played hard, then napped hard.

She just got her shots and she's very sleepy. I'm just sitting in the car because I don't want to wake her up.

Just a heads up, expect lots of puppy pictures. Her name is Gertrude, she's a Corgi and Blue Heeler mix. She's a snuggle bunny and loves giving puppy kisses.
