Inch for inch there is no more exciting box to unwrap on Christmas morning than a Tamiya. Almost weapons-grade graphic design, masterful. Who could resist?

I’ve been informed the way I use Instagram is dead (has been dead). So looks like 2026 will bring my time on that platform to a close.
Feels weird to be leaving platforms I’ve been on for decades, but it is entirely possible to stay too long at the fair.

I’m old enough to remember when MTV played “Under the Bridge” by RHCP 5 times an hour. I must’ve seen that video 400 times, and I hate RHCP.
Still, RIP Yo! MTV Raps and 120 Minutes. Seminal programming for my musical tastes (despite not having cable growing up).

MTV is officially ending all of its music channels.
In honor of that, what's your favorite music video?

I realized next year will bring me my first EREV: The Also TM-B! It's a series hybrid consisting of an electric drivetrain and a sweaty middle aged generator.
2026 is shaping up to be The Year of the EREV.
