@harvilla.bsky.social Since I loathe Piano Man (Billy Joel is half assed musical theater devoid of metaphor), I appreciated the shade toward it in today's episode. And I guffawed at the ninja insertion of the Edie Brickell quote 💀💀💀

I'd have that bottle far into winter and the thought of black salad is vile. 😬😬😬

This is why so many people make fun of home schooling. She's a simpleton who shouldn't be teaching anyone anything.

I'm more vexed as to why he hasn't been charged with anything. Seems like a pretty high crime to me, not that laws mean anything anymore, especially with magas.

I'm assuming she blocked you shortly after that. She has absolutely no credibility. I have no idea why anyone would value what she has to say after that nonsense. Screenshot her response if you aren't blocked. I'd love to see it! 😈

They see both as weakness and as things that would never involve them or their offspring. They're eugenicists.

He actually thinks he looks cool. That absolute nerd thinks he looks cool in his unstylish everything.

Last month, I said to a friend that I hadn't seen one yet. The day after, I saw one on the road, in that color blue. Haven't seen one since tho.

That course looks like a blast and it's so rad to see a Starion driving in anger! 🤘🤘

It'll be entertaining to see the magas walking away with irritated eyes and trouble breathing.

The second he touched the protester's face, he should have been laid out. Surprised he wasn't white tho.

I don't hate it. They've done worse lately. I can't accuse it of being bland.

They're also stupidly expensive, built like garbage and depreciate like milk

Sometime in the Jurassic period, that was me in my 1982 Toyota Tercel. ($2000 in 1988 with 56k miles on it)(Took me through college, sold in 1994) *Sigh...*

I'm not a full blown progressive by any means, but if that's who wins the primaries, that's who I vote for. I want a viable candidate who can get elected. If that happens to be a progressive, fantastic. We're under actual fascism at the moment, so I'll vote for whomever gets put up. NBD.

I last had them in a 2000 Civic DX sedan that I sold in 2015. It was normal for me at that point because I had a string of beater Civics with crank windows. I think we've moved on from them at this point.

I'm so very confused...

The facelifted version has aged pretty well. The original version looked outrageously futuristic when I was a kid. Still a cool design. Imagine Ford being that edgy now...

Agreed.

I'm much more of a responder than a post creator. We're in extremely ugly times now, so I get not being motivated to say much of anything.

Obviously she's a monster of a cyclist, but she destroyed everyone else who were on bikes that were much more aero optimized and geometry optimized. Allied just had the best endorsement possible from her.

Still looks pretty chaotic tho 😬😬😬

Seems like a detail that will just draw even more hatred toward itself, because the people who are triggered by masks REALLY hate LGBT people. Seems like a big miss.

I remember learning about this, that he didn't want his paintings hanging in a fancy restaurant where people wouldn't give a sh*t about them, so he skipped the commission after the fact. Pretty gangsta. 😎

I haven't been here in a long time, but I bought a 2019 Lexus UX250h F Sport last month. It's very nass 🤓

While I wouldn't dunk it in anything, I would definitely try one out of sheer curiosity.

Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 22/06/2026
Up to $206k. Those are definitely done plush floormats tho! I'm guessing the seller is going to take a $100k bath on it in 1 year when it hammers. Interesting to see one already hitting the secondary market. I'm a fan of the car. It's pretty awesome.

Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 22/06/2026
Oof. Still a hard sell for me 😬😬😬 I don't know if I'll ever see one in person tho.

I'm returning for some bicycle discourse. Kate Courtney just won pro Road Nationals on a gravel bike with road wheels on it. That would seem to confirm that a whole bunch of road bike marketing is indeed a bunch of nonsense, would it not?

There's a lightly modded 1st Gen CTS-V sedan in my town that looks pretty mean.

Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 18/10/2025
I don't mind it tho. Seems more interesting than a lot of their other new offerings. I lost track of Ferrari after the 488, for the most part.

That city hall is stunning. Still very forward thinking, but people who still get excited over Piano Man and Olive Garden can't process it. 🙄 It would be replaced with some neoclassical BS that has zero architectural value.

Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 18/10/2025
I think I'm similar. I'm good at big bursts on the actual bike, but those are harder during a 20 minute text vs a cross race. I averaged 279w at Minuteman over 50 minutes, but the bumps above 1000w nudged that average up.
010
Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 18/10/2025
Makes sense. The ramp test is shorter so you can make a bigger effort and survive, instead of watching that 20 minutes count down at a glacial pace. I'll bet I could do a 300w ramp test now. Maybe I'll try that for sh*ts and giggles at a later date.

Soul was destroyed earlier this evening with a 20 minute FTP test on Zwift, prodded on by my much younger friend Emily & in smaller part, my peer @gewilli.bsky.social 10w lower than my ramp test from last winter, but also much more brutal. Wanted to stop until I hit the 5 min mark. Not bad tho

I watched it last week & thought it was pretty good. A more distant relative, but still a pretty impressive collection. The Sultan's actual collection is very well guarded. Doesn't seem like they want to share it anytime soon. Larry explained it on The Smoking Tire (?) before the video release.

I see a decent number of them in RI. It took awhile for them to penetrate the market, but that was Covid supply issues at first The 1st Gen HRV dwarfs it tho. Way more of those than any other cute ute (including the 2nd Gen HRV, which I don't like at all).

I'll give advance warning to the coaches that bikes are the priority today. 🤓

If I don't get clobbered by Brown today, I'm hoping to get down there for one last shop ride.

The thing about these hate mongers is, they usually get forgotten pretty rapidly shortly after they're out of the public eye. No one is talking about Limbaugh, Carlson or O'Reilly anymore.

Consumer spending during the Biden years was BONKERS. That won't be seen again for quite awhile.

I must be REALLY desensitized. It was very morbid, but I guess because he was an actual Nazi...
000
Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 11/09/2025
The press won't label him as the Nazi he was. They will sanitize and normalize him. They're already much more breathless about this than they were the Minnesota senator assassination. This is historically how fascists meet their end.

Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 11/09/2025
This is a proper timeline cleanse. My goodness. I wonder if it'll hit $20k. It should.

Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 11/09/2025
I'm assuming the shooter was a highly trained sniper. I wonder if he'll even get caught if he was operating at that level. I also wonder if this is the start of a coordinated antifa-style campaign.

Chris G. @iamchrisgam.bsky.social · 11/09/2025
A great response I saw on Threads earlier was a dude responding to Kamala Harris' condolences. He said "Go and have a steak. He'd be dancing on your grave if this happened to you." The press will fully downplay that he was an actual Nazi.

It was uncanny that some of his last words were hating on trans people. Vile to the bitter end.
