…sleeve of saltines and a block of grated cheddar were my go-to lunch as a kid; no regrets…
(these days i’m more into triscuits and cheddar slices, the pricey aged blocks rather than store-brand orange blocks)
…when i turned thirty, i was a grownup, and people started treating me like one: grownups are f*cking old and their lives are over…
…i drove from the gulf coast to northern california twenty-five years ago and had to thoroughly clean my windshield of bugs every fuel stop, which was pretty typical of road trips for thirty years prior; i can’t remember the last time i’ve had to clean my windshield of anything other than dust since the mid-2000s…
…wagons nearly don’t exist anymore in the US market, but i concur: hatchbacks, wagons, and minivans are purpose-designed vehicles for the way people use them in the real world, whereas modern trucks and SUVs are overwhelmingly poseur props for families in denial of their suburban utility lifestyle…
…that typeface is fire…
…got a new one with a different picture tonight…
…trump’s an imbecile, but some clever folks are spoon-feeding their asset…
…it’s what he avoids: russian carrots are accompanied by russian sticks and trump’s kompromat runs decades deep, capital-punishment deep at this point…
…his only course of survival is to double-down on whatever his handlers ask of him…
…my first thought, too, but no: they have many mechanical applications but wankel rotors use slightly flatter geometry…
…back in the CRT era i needed at least a 72Hz refresh rate to not feel any discomfort; that doesn’t exactly correlate with framerates on modern LCD displays but i think it’s a good proxy for the threshold of general perceptiblity…
…are greater framerates smoother?..sure, especially in my peripheral vision, but 72 FPS is generally good-enough beyond which returns start diminishing…
…i liked it; where’d he become familiar with a vintage telephone within the past thirteen years?..
…i just have to say: that engine bay is SO CLEAN…
…like, i could eat off of it…
…look at all those pockets for storing remote controllers, phones, and snacks!..
…looks more like i’m you, gonna right, stop there…
YYYY.MM.DD HH.MM.SS, as eru ilúvatar intended
…you’re still here?..it’s over, go home!..
…go!..
