Suburbs of Columbus

The rumors of the Failblazer's death have been greatly exaggerated. No damage to the structure, so I popped a junkyard door on and it will live on for now.

Pictured - my fleet is now majority Ohio-built! A '25 Accord Hybrid has been added to serve as my daily, alongside the '25 Wrangler and '06 TB.

Is the end of the legendary #failblazer?

Looks like a drunk plowed into my 18-years-owned '06 Trailblazer around midnight in my driveway and then left.

In the context of the ID.Buzzkill recall recently, I have to wonder how Ford gets away with this.

It isn't even eight am and I've already seen a release hitting all the cliched buzzwords.

I'm talking:

BOLD
DYNAMISM
ATHLETICISM

Been away from this place for a while, but wandered back just in time for the greatest 'couch fucker kills pontiff' takes.

Just when you think that the internet was the worst thing ever created, you get moments of synergy like this.

There has never been a more Ohio State fan behavior than killing the Pope to distract from the fact that you broke your alma mater's national championship trophy

I’d probably lose the will to keep going if I met Vance in person too.

Imagine breaking the college football national championship trophy and killing the Pope in the same week.

Muskingum University is in New Concord, Ohio - 20 miles from Zanesville.

This is why people outside big cities think that the media doesn't care about them - because they don't care to get the details right.

I'd tell the Columbus Dispatch to do better, but they've proven time and again they can't.

If you're not familiar with the Columbus area, this Tesla store is in a weird suburban mall area that has *never* seen a protest of this size
Two weeks ago we had a small group of 20
This weekend, we had more than 100 - defiant, determined, united - for our #TeslaTakedown at the #Easton #Telsa in #Columbus
And we're not stopping - JOIN US every Saturday at 4:30 PM 'til MUSK IS OUT 1/

Woke up to an email rejecting me from a job that I'm highly qualified for.

It was sent at 12:30am this morning, meaning either my app was auto-scanned and rejected or someone in HR hates me so much they couldn't sleep.

Great way to kick off the week.

I generally try to avoid shopping Walmart for all kinds of reasons..but we need wiper blades for a leased Jeep that will go back in just over a month. Hard to justify parts store prices.

That Walmart breaks down wiper unit prices *by the inch* like lumber or produce, however, is amusing.

I know this will not change anything. Nothing we can do seems to be able to change anything. But I felt better for 6 seconds and that's about as good as it's been of late.

Bozi is a national treasure.
The car that Kendrick Lamar used on stage last night at the Super Bowl half time show is a real Buick Grand National.

Let's dig into some of the details and see where it came from and how it was modified.
