Well, May has come, and OMWC is also trying to… anyways, we all know there’s only like six weeks of ice cream season in upstate NY, and he’s trying to steal a 7th. Dear God, how does he make anything coherent this early on a Saturday?
Mrs. L decided we were going to start experiencing “the real Florida”. Somehow, this did not entail swingers bars and bathtub meth, much to my delight. No, next weekend we are going to central Florida to visit a bunch of natural springs which may or may not be accessible depending on whether alligators fuck in them, as it is breeding season, apparently… Good thing I’ve got 4 sons, I only need a 25% survival rate when I push one of them into the springs ahead of me.
Enjoy your weekend, Glibs and Glibbettes.
The Hodlers are winning. GameStop to make offer for eBay. Reminds me of the dotcom bust when pets.com got bought by Purina, or whatever.
One the one hand, this is sad, on the other hand, you parked a bus full of pawnable shit in Oakland.
“Software Defined Vehicles” — no motherfuckers, just stop.
From The Grauniad: “Why does the US have military bases in Germany?” Because we conquered it by ancient and modern tradition?
After the passing of David Allen Coe, I found an old fun country song for Derby Week.
So we’re not going to hear the tale of Smokey the Tard?
The real Smokey the Tard is the forest fires we started along the way.
“However, Hyundai spent far less time talking about the buttons than your author just did. It instead wanted to hype up artificial intelligence integration and in-car marketplaces. We’ve grumbled about this in the past but the push toward software-defined vehicles is effectively to make automobiles into smart devices. Vehicle features will be gatekept behind subscriptions and will likely need to be purchased via connected services.”
WCPGW?
Now imagine an AI powered Subaru (right out of the imagination of SugarFree).
a) Back in the day, to keep the Soviets from getting frisky.
ii) Also to keep the Germans from getting frisky in re: France and Great Britain.
Neither of which really apply today.
3. to expose young soldiers to good beer and bad women.
I saw this side-linked from one of today’s WSJ links that looks interesting and probably touches on this question but it’s pay-walled.
“What Happens When Europeans Find Out How Poor They Are?”
Germany sure did not appear poor when I lived there in the 80s.
PS. they mostly didn’t care for all the Americans everywhere.
Isn’t the real Florida the surreal one we hear about all the time?
“We’ve seen this in modern cars via companies forcing customers to purchase things like remote start using a subscription and making activation exclusively available via a phone app. This not only has you paying more for hardware that has already been equipped to the vehicle, it also creates additional avenues for the manufacturer to harvest information about you.”
Then the industry needs to be severely de-regulated so that market forces can eliminate that shit.
Boutique derivatives of bare bones vehicles should be the way forward for automakers.
Follow the Dell model from the late 90’s.
Start with three platforms only like the Japanese had. Bare bones, mid, everything. Then customize from there.
Order a custom mustang with a T-56, with no AC, and 2 cloth seats. Tubo4 or 5.0 plus whatever is available in the racing catalogue. Alternatively build a full luxury boat with all of the electronics.

Boutique.
Sean, good example. Just a little bit on the high end. Great car.
The government has made bare bones illegal.
I kept hearing that our orange leader was going to address this regulation burden and make America competitive again. Maybe in his third term.
Can I order a Hilux with mounts for my machine gun?
Not too dissimilar from the way cars were sold 20 or so years ago. It’s only relatively recently that your options became “which of three packages do you want”.
“Why does the US have military bases in Germany?”
Makes no sens. you should be strenghtening your forces in Romania.

Is this victim blaming? Or are the thieves the real victims here and structurap structures of structure are to blame. A conondrum phillosophers have studied through the ages
“We are heartbroken to say that the truck containing all of Moonchild’s stage design, wardrobe, lighting/audio gear, merch, and instruments for the Waves Tour was stolen last night,” the message read.”
I wonder if they were on the “defund the police” bandwagon.
The look the part at least.
and instruments for the Waves Tour was stolen last night
Did they steal Katrina too?
They’re not walkin’ on sunshine.
But they’re definitely walking.
Warm enough for Tranquility Base yet, GT?

I got the futon chaise set up at Tranq Base Thursday afternoon and spent some time out there, but it’s too cold this morning to go out. 😞

I got nuthin’
Took me about five seconds, but I’m a Florida Man, and therefore an original football fan.
FWIW, the 2026 Rose Bowl was played between the Indiana Hoosiers and the Alabama Crimson Tide.

“Biohacker Bryan Johnson makes shocking reveal about girlfriend’s vagina: ‘Top 1%’
“Her sample is dominated by the single most protective bacterial species a vagina can host (Lactobacillus crispatus).”
“Only about 25-30% of reproductive-age women globally are L. crispatus-dominant, and dominant usually means above 50%. Kate is at 98.7%,” he added.”

How romantic.
Has he fucked enough women to know his girlfriend’s vagina is in the top 1%?
+ Wilt Chamberlain
Who did the bit where there was a Wilt Chamberlain bed board scoreboard? SNL or Living Color?
Who would ever post: Girfriend’s vagina, would recommend.
I mean it sounds like it is possible to do better, why is he settling?
That guy is insufferable.

Flathead Valley, MT Crime Update:
1:18 p.m. A man wasn’t doing anything wrong.
This could be someone we know:
6:51 p.m. A white, unmarked creeper van with the door cracked open was driving slowly in circles around the school and the park.
BIGLY ANNOUNCEMENT. YUGE!
After taking some feedback from potential GlibsCruise vacationers, we found that GlibsCruise 2 – Eclipse Boogaloo was a little… ambitious.
So we’re making the next one much more accessible in terms of expense and logistics. Introducing…
GlibsCruise III (that’s three, or one hundred eleventy if you’re a Minnesota Somalian).
Departs Tampa on April 4, 2027 — that’s the Sunday after western Easter
Three port days (Bimini, Nassau, Cozumel), three sea days. Nothing too exotic, easier on the wallet than Iceland. Getting to Tampa is certainly less daunting than the journey to Reykjavík.
The link has the phone number for Suzanne, our Glibs travel agent, who can answer any questions and personalize your cruise (if you want WiFi but are skipping the drinks package, etc).
I’ll keep making this announcement in the AM and PM links for several more days, and will draft an article very shortly.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

“Taxpayer funded pro-illegal immigration groups are demanding millions of dollars from LA residents to help them attack ICE and fund day laborer hubs near Home Depot sites.
The groups are already getting $1-million-a-year from LA City Council, and are now demanding a $2-million-a-year funding increase to help them fight against ICE operations and maintain buildings outside the hardware stores.
The hubs offer everything from restrooms to free legal services and employment advice to day laborers, all paid for by nonprofits funded by taxpayers…
City records show Los Angeles required several home improvement stores, through land-use approvals, to set aside space for these centers, in some cases leasing parking lot land to the city for as little as $1 a year.”

Ban “the groups”.
And don’t just stop funding them, claw back what you gave them.
Silicone Saturday is enjoying the decline.

“A single father from Oregon has said he begged city officials to deal with a growing homeless encampment outside his home for months – only to be fined for his garden hedge instead.
Rather than addressing Chris Bolton’s concerns, City of Portland councilors abruptly turned their attention on him by criticizing his overgrown laurels.”
