Glad to see this coming about. Now, I”m saying this as a first generation Japanese-American immigrant, who came to America as a young age but goes to Japan for work fairly regularly.

It totally makes sense to advertise a new BMW in a game where the average player is 13 years old and broke.

Yeah, but we already did that. Taking a model 3 for example, is on par with the weight of a midsize SUV, those are also a very common vehicle to see in the suburbs. Most of those issues already existed pre EV revolution.

okay...but that doesn’t really tell us much. Toyota has historically created a baffling overlap in SUV’s so to hear that they don’t think the overlap will be a problem is not much.  I guess if they sold 180,000 4Runners and 5000 land Cruisers before and they sell 145,000 4Runners and 40,000 250 series...its all the

Because it’s not about crime. It’s about power and oppression. It’s about continuing the age-old trend of fear mongering that makes otherwise-reasonable people make stupid decisions. It’s about creating and proliferating an environment of fear to make it easy to hold onto that power illegitimately, to make the people

So, to address your concerns in order:

They had quite a long time between me posting about it on twitter and me publishing this story. It took them more than 12 hours to pull the episode.

Roadkill isn’t a couple of guys with a camera scraping by. The show has (last I heard) somewhere in the neighborhood of $50,000 per

I don’t really know why you would make this public instead of just informing the creators and giving them a chance to fix it first. From everything I’ve seen of Roadkill it’s just an informal show about fixing up junker cars and taking them on a road trip. They don’t seem to have a script or big production budget or

I feel like we’re seeing a lot of stories about artists without any context.

The rich are rich by exploiting those poorer than them. It’s a universal truth.

“The rich are continuing to be among the cheapest.”

There’s a lesson in there.

As I said, the 200 has a niche buyer group, but it’s small and Toyota knows it. They also know that trying to split sales of nearly the same niche vehicle between 2 brands didn’t make a lot of sense.

The Prado is long overdue for a replacement, too. I wonder if they’ll just keep having that be the Lexus GX or if that’s a possibility for the ‘return of the Land Cruiser’ since several markets get it as their only ‘Land Cruiser’ even though it’s not the full-fat 200/300 series.

It’s been my long standing theory that Toyota is going to retool the way that Land Cruiser is sold here in the US. For the last 3 generations they have sold the same vehicle as Toyota and Lexus and its hurt both brands. Lexus buyers don’t want people to think they are driving a Toyota and Toyota buyers have had to

The local fire chief had conducted tests on fire hydrants this past August, and one of the hydrants shot out a brick of compacted dry dirt, while another ejected an Axe body spray can, the Washington Post reported.

Movie Snape (and Rickman’s being amazing) almost retconned the book character from scumbag to anti hero in people’s minds I feel like.

I’m guessing someone never lived near the Mennonites. I went to college in PA. There was a large Mennonite presence in the area. Almost all the used cars that college kids got their hands on were from that community. Mainly Darts and Novas with radio delete plates. You could always tell a Mennonite car, the chrome had

The interesting thing about the show too, is that while it contains some of the usual exploitative anime tropes, it actually portrays the sex industry and sex in general in a very positive light. Everyone is consenting. Everyone is (mostly) having fun.

I just saw episode 1 after the controversy. HOLY SHIT how did they not know. The plot of this show is fucking different kinds of chicks and then giving detailed reviews. Theres so much bare titty and crotch shots in the first episode alone. 

Yup. I helped a girlfriend of mine back then buy one and it was a spectacularly good car. The manual was one of the absolute best shifting gearboxes I’ve ever used (easily up there with the S2000, NSX, and Miata). Handled great right out of the box, fairly lightweight, sized perfectly for placing on apexes,
