I'm old enough to remember how US mass media just blindly accepted Bush's lies of Iraq having WMDs, and this reads like the really stupid and highly unnecessary remake.
When the Seth Moulton quote is the only thing really capturing the moment on the entire top of the MS NOW page, I am truly not sure what we're doing.

I know car dealers get a lot of often deserved hate, but some salesman knowingly sold Minnesota ICE agents a rear-wheel drive Tahoe, and whoever you are, you're a hero.

I completely missed this -- such a loss. And while he is best-known for The Wire (and for good reason!), don't sleep on his fantastic performances in the underrated comedy Cedar Rapids and Shonda Rhimes' The Residence.

How much has the market for Boomer market fallen? Not too long ago, this numbers matching 1969 Pontiac GTO 400 4BBL would have cost as much as it will today to take home it and that AMC Javelin SST

The Palm Springs auto auction has the distinct pleasure of offering you two (2) Eurovans from which to chose: bring friends out for dinner or live your life as an ongoing adventure

Are you a recently divorced Dad? Do you need something to muscle normal drivers out of the way as you race from your weekly supervised visits with the kids to the pub? Are you looking to leverage your life in a product perfect for a 10 year loan at 14.99%? Have we got the vehicle for you!
After a two-year hibernation period, the mighty Ram TRX is back! But this time the off-road supertruck wears SRT badges and packs 777 horsepower, enough to retake the crown from the Ford F-150 Raptor R.

This guy next to me is wearing a black Polo button down with the sleeves rolled up past the elbow, the top four(!) buttons unbuttoned, a black silk bow tie untied, and four strings of black beads, and I have never so viscerally hated an outfit as much as this.

The DJ at this restaurant is blasting a synth-flute cover of Coolio's Gangsta's Paradise and if that doesn't just sum up 2025, I don't know what does

Maybe that idiot influencer who constantly sings China's praises about how they're crushing everyone else in EVs should read this, but I blocked him.

SCMP: "About 50 unprofitable mainland Chinese EV makers are under pressure to scale down their business or wind down operations, as the country’s automotive sector is projected to report a sales drop next year – the first such contraction since 2020."

I consider myself reasonably clued in to culture overall, and certainly moreso when it comes to things and people related to the 60s, and I was completely unaware of how Bardot had become a whole-ass Nazi. It's a failing of media to not lead with this in her obits.
🚨Black folk, post carefully!🚨

Brigitte Bardot, another notorious white nationalist, has died after living a life of wealth and luxury.

So you know the rules: if you post any of her own words or are in any way insufficiently deferential it will be considered very rude! You could lose your account!🤡

I honestly would have expected to see this first on my alt account
This is an artificial mouth created by Japanese researchers. It uses artificial vocal cords, a trachea system, and a flexible silicone mouth that moves and shapes sound in real time.

It sounds so human-like!

Also scored a vintage Impy Imperial Crown police car today -- doors, hood and trunk all open, and it even comes with the original box. I did not get the vintage Chevette poster, despite it being the coolest car you could buy in 1980. #weirdcar

After going to far more Rosses in more states than I care to admit, I finally scored one of the Zodiac watches they've been selling for $149.95 (original MSRP: $2,295)

They're playing an ad for "Paul Anka sings all the hits live, from his standards to the latest music, including Cindy Lauper -- and Nirvana!"

Anyway, he'll be performing after the new year in Coachella Valley, and it promises to be a show hotter than Stagecoach.

Spent five minutes trying to load two oversized suitcases into the back of a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, which between the vestigial third-row that is useless when upright and blocks the cargo area when folded, and the battery pack eating into space, is no easy feat. So poorly designed.
