Well... I didn’t fly it all during the Trump admin. My next door neighbors were big time Trumpsters. So I flew the California Republic flag. A soon as Trump lost- as in the VERY SAME DAY, I put up a great big American flag as sort of a “ Fuck you” to them. I guess that was immature.

While I’m sure they’ll figure something out, it is pretty clear that they need new outrages to keep them on track. The mask and vaccine mandates are ending (even here, in San Francisco, with no protests!

Same here. And I’m payroll.

Relax. This oven cleaner anodization removal is commonly done with bicycles.

3rd Gear - I guess he really does want to be know as the Henry Ford of EVs.

is this a different list or a subsection of “Reasons not to buy a Nissan”?

And someone fucking up copy-editing isn’t part of it. Otherwise Jalopnik would be the headquarters of the SS.

I like Hyundai’s solution of showing a blind-spot camera when you use the turn signal (yeah, we know this wouldn’t help BMW drivers).
