Starring in Issue 5 of Copacetic, it’s a Golf you’ve probably driven. Well, digitally at least. The HPA Motorsports R32, which won best-in-show at SEMA 2004, and was then licensed by Polyphony to appear in Gran Turismo.
In shops this week, or order here: copaceticmagazine.co.uk/product-cate...

Funny thing this AM. Went up to the Cypress lookout to get some sunrise shots and there was an older guy up there doing a Timelapse with a big setup. When I went to take a picture he said “Film Camera!” excitedly and whipped out a pocket digital and took several pictures of *me*

In all seriousness, a Miata-based therapy practice would totally work.
They should let me have a Miata for a week. Mental health and all that.

Finally went and got a decent kitchen knife. The block is cool too: my dad made it over 50 years ago out of solid maple.

China is justly proud of its inventions: papermaking, the compass, gunpowder, and printing.

Really though, the one you can use everyday is 嗨呀!
