SugarFree is sick. Not just his normal sickness of the brain, but a physical malady which has sent him to the hospital. Everyone here at Glibs HQ wishes him well, as I’m sure do you all.
We are, as usual, short on irregular (non-serial) content so you get an open post. I’ll be back this afternoon for links, so that Brett gets a break between this morning and tomorrow afternoon.
Get well you glorious sick fuck!

I’m worried about the mental wellbeing of the nurses now.
Thanks for filling in, Tonio.
Feel more better, SF. Don’t let them stick anything up your butt.
If they do, please fit the story into Subaru Horror Theater.
Unless you want them to.
If they offer to send a MAID to your room, SAY NO!
The picture…I like it.
You can thank Old Man for that, it was thoughtful, tasteless, and therefore extremely appropriate.
Don’t eat from the buffet during the Feast of Alvis.
The holiest man ever to slap iron! He killed for your sins!
Get well soon!
In honor of Sugar Free tonights new cartoon is episode 100! I mean, it was anyway, but it’s the thought that counts, right?
get well SF and tell the nurses some of your best tales.

I used to watch this channel 8 9 years ago but it did not end in my youtube feed in years. Did not know Boris was even still around. Can’t say I find it that entertaining like back in the day…
It is surprising how distressing it was to read SF headed to the hospital.
I guess I still haven’t come to terms with the loss of St Hayek.
Take care SF.
I know what you mean.
When I was younger and someone I knew went to the hospital, it was concerning.
Now, it is scary.
Get better SF, hope you freak out the nurses.
Ended up having to take my mom to the hospital two days ago. We’ll have my wife come into town and take her as I was on the road.
Much ado about nothing, Likely some slight dehydration and former nurse hypochondria but it’s likely to accelerate.
I hope they use the machine that goes ping on him.

“Every 30 minutes, someone creates something I have to look at,” a manager recently told us.
As AI accelerates individual execution, a new bottleneck to progress is emerging: managers. Traditional management was designed for a world where execution took time. You could delegate a task and then comfortably check in the following week.
But AI has collapsed that timeline. Increasingly, the pace of progress is limited by how quickly managers can offer feedback. “If I discuss a project with a direct report in a 1:1,” a manager shared in an interview we conducted for this article, “It’s already shipped and running the next day.”
It’s in the Harvard Business Review, so you know it’ true.
AI managers?
That’s the obvious choice. What could possibly go wrong?
Well, only if the AI has completed a Harvard MBA.
Oh, managers don’t like when they get put on the spot constantly for answers while they might be in the middle of some other, equally important task? Us non-managers wouldn’t know nuttin about that.
“Every 30 minutes, someone creates something I have to look at,” a manager recently told us.
Just get your AI to look at their AI.

SF is all fucked up and he talks like a fag and his shit is retarded?

Get well, buddy.
Cityscape reminds me of Baghdad.
Here’s James Talrico wearing a cloth mask while he announces his campaign is going vegan. I don’t know how Ken Paxton is going to win this one.
OFFS!
Talk about an own goal.
LOL.
Cornyn was funded out the backside by deluded non-republican normies, so at the moment all the Cornyn supporters are throwing money at Talarico. This may cease once they learn a little more about the guy.
Paxton completely walked away with this. Not even close. Also realize that a ton of people did not vote in the republican primary. I didn’t, I will wait until November. I have to work! I knew Paxton was going to win so I didn’t bother. November is what matters.
I didn’t.
I don’t care that much as long as it’s not Talarico.
Talrico is a lizard person.
In his own way, he is every bit as empty and creepy as Mamdani.
But the eGOPer RINOs are positive that Talarico will mop the floor with Paxton! He has that fresh-faced Boy Scout/youth minister vibe that will be irresistible, especially since Paxton has the stink of MAGA all over him.
And of course, without enough toadies in the Senate to block conviction and removal after a dozen or so Repubs cross over to vote against him, Drumpf is toast!
Every left of center person on my social media talks about how “moderate” Talarico is, and I can’t think of a single thing about him that’s moderate.
They said the same thing about Spanberger, too.
Yeah, “moderate” is just to trick you into voting for them. All the money is coming from radicals like Soros and Singh now and their views quickly change to reflect that.
SugarFree is sick. Not just his normal sickness of the brain, but a physical malady which has sent him to the hospital.
Clearly just one day of authorship isnt enough to purge all of the ill humours.
In seriousness, I hope you get better quickly!
So it has spread to other organs?
Get well!
Today in conspiracy theories: What the Iraq War was really about.
Duh.
At least it was entertaining. If it said “oil” I was going to ask for my ten seconds of life back.
I thought that we wanted to secure the (alien) bones of the Summerian kings?

Well, that’s pretty much DEG’s link says.
And it is the good kind of entertaining conspiracy theory.
Idiot. It was a Star Gate that Saddam found that we wanted. I know because Art Bell said so.
His body, if found intact, would be a living relic of Nephilim blood
Yawn. We already have one of those here, he posts every Friday.
Honda’s borked EV development and abandonment strikes again.
They already hurt themselves badly with no new Acura RX for at least a year. Now it’s the Ridgeline’s turn.
https://www.thedrive.com/news/honda-ridgeline-is-going-away-for-18-months-until-it-gets-a-v6-hybrid-report
Autopian explained why. Although Trump did get rid of a lot of crappy regulations at the federal level, Honda was still beholden to California regs. Dodge could care less, they just won’t sell specific products there. Honda cannot do such a thing. The Drive mentions absolutely none of this.
https://www.theautopian.com/honda-has-to-stop-building-the-21-mpg-ridgeline-over-emissions-while-ram-brings-back-the-12-mpg-v8-1500-trx/
Thanks.
Honda is the most California of automakers and sells a lot of vehicles in the state. It’s also one of a half dozen automakers that had to make individual deals with the California Air Resources Board over its past emissions violations
I wonder what CARB concessions were forced upon Honda. I assume they could sell them elsewhere, but Honda can’t make the economics work without CA. Which seems odd…
Exactly that. Honda’s bread and butter is California.
CARB should be taken out into the middle of a busy intersection and given necklaces.
Glad I went with a Ranger.
How is that? After all these years I have yet to drive a new one.
They doing the same thing to the Odyssey? Same engine and frame.

The Odyssey is in huge need of an update. It’s still a nice vehicle, but it really shows its age.
Christopher Nolan heard you.
I am hoping that it was something very temporary and correctable like SF was hypoglycemic alone in public. But whatever it is I am always rooting for you Sugar Free, get healthy and be well.
Hypo alone in public is an automatic ass kicking from the popo. Let’s hope it was something even simpler, like gas.
He had to get some wholesome thoughts removed from his head.
Nah, he would be mistaken for someone who is (somehow) intoxicated or someone who is mentally ill so getting his ass kicked by the cops would be more like a coin flip than a certainty. And sometimes they let you choose between going to the hospital and going with them to the station.
Well, “automatic” is a bit of hyperbole, but I’ve seen too many “cops beat up diabetic” stories to discount it out of hand.
Still hope it’s just gas.
I will skip sugar until SF comes home. It’s the only way I can think of that might help.
This is an excellent form of support.

So I’m in a discord filled with Brits who are all retarded.
They complain incessantly about the “heat wave” of 82 freedom units, and all state they either can’t get AC because of local regulations, or refuse to because cLiMaTe ChAnGe. They all state British heat is “different” and worse than anywhere else.
Try going to Macon, GA in August, and fuck off with your complaints, retards.
The fuck outta here with your stupidity. Don’t want to hear it.
And yet Americans are the dimwitted parochial people that never travel. They’ve never gone to anyplace with high humidity and high temperatures?
Coworker returned from a trip to Singapore and Japan. She said the heat and humidity were so bad in Singapore that she looked forward to Japan.
I travel further by going a couple states away than most of them will ever do in their lives.
An actual quote….
Heat exhaustion because of (*checks conversion*) 86 freedom units.
That was an avaerage Xmas day growing up in Florida, so please forgive me if I roll my eyes.
Ask them what the relative humidity is, and if they say, “I don’t know,” maybe they’ll be flung into the Gorge of Eternal Peril.
Ask for dew point. They complain when dew points are in the 50s.
Hard to say what is the worst heat that I’ve experienced.
I rode my bike home from work (a mere 5 miles) the day the Phoenix airport set the record of 122 degrees. It’s a dry heat — just like the inside of your oven.
And I’ve walked half a mile or so through down town Singapore when the dew point is in the 90s.
I’ve been camping in Missouri when it it was 100 degrees and the dew point was over 80.
Lot’s of different ways to be miserable.
And I’ve been in London and stayed in a hotel with no air when the locals were saying the world was going to end because the heat wave was extreme. We get a dozen days a year in Iowa that were worse.
I remember the last house I rented during my senior year in college — no air.
During the worst summer has to offer, we’d wake up in the morning and the bedding would be wet from the dew.
We’d leave footprints in the dew on the wall-to-wall carpeting in the living room first thing in the morning.
Worst I’ve experienced….
North Florida (Suwannee County) in August. 101F, with humidity above 80%. I did the only sensible thing that day: go swimming in the springs (staying indoors wasn’t an option).
The triangle between Macon, Savannah, and Valdosta, GA, also in August. Don’t remember the temperature, but I remember it being just plain old suffocating to breathe.
I stayed in a house in Houston with no air conditioning. Same thing. Humidity was so thick it looked like a fog sometimes.
I was actually there in London a few years ago for one of their infamous heat waves and it actually did feel friggin’ hot inside because you couldn’t get any circulation of breeze.
But that seems like a problem a once great civilization could easily fix.
Remember when it was mad dogs and Englishmen?

She then made a call to the center seeking advice. However, the matter was immediately reported to the police without her being asked about how she wanted to proceed.

Honda wants
Honda Racing Corporation US President David Salters confirmed to The Drive that the automaker’s ability to contribute to discussions about future IndyCar regulatory sets is “critical” to its continued participation in the American open-wheel series.
In February of this year, Honda and Chevrolet both committed to continue as engine manufacturers in the IndyCar series for “multiple years” as part of a push to secure the sport’s future—particularly after years of rumors that Honda was perhaps looking for an exit strategy (like it recently did in IMSA). Part of the agreement was the requirement that both automakers “be heavily involved in the development of the engine and competition rules to be implemented” in 2028, per IndyCar’s press release at the time.
Yeah let’s hear your plan for a transverse three cylinder hybrid with a CVT because that’s where production cars are going.
Something tells me they haven’t learned a goddam t6hing from the current F1 fiasco.
Honda lost money for the first time in 70 years. See the discussion above. What they really need to right now is spend lots of resources on IndyCar.
https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/14/business/honda-loss-ev-pullback-cost
Tell you what – figure out what current boost pressures are that Honda’s turbos use and mandate that for Indy something 1.5 bar or similar. Problem solved.
First hand experience – their hybrid system transmissions are excellent.
The CVT on their regular has motors are why people hate CVTs.
I’ve read similar. They make a great hybrid system.

She handled that perfectly. She stayed positive, in good humor, and she got him to confirm (in the recording she was making) that he said she had a phone in her right hand while she was driving.
