I was just thinking… One thing, and then it led to another. Remember Trump when he announced to run for president? And he came down that escalator in the most awkward way possible? Just wow. And then I just thought, with any other candidate, *that* would have ended their presidential run. Brett Sherwood replied: And … Read more
So, I’m in a polyamorous relationship. While I had feelings of not wanting anyone to know, I had never found reason to let anyone know. As time has gone on, I feel it’s more of an open secret. And certainly, with the facts on the ground being what they are (I’m in no relationship other … Read more
So, Brian Beutler tweeted the following: And here’s how this is actually going to go down. A right wing flight attendant will stick up for people who had been restrained and duct taped and made a scene, and oh yeah, assaulted flight attendants. After which, that flight attendant will then become famous on, I … Read more
Just wondering if any of my friends are experienced in the Star Wars universe. Specifically, how the new spin off shows are, or will, jive with the movies (7, 8, 9). (As well as the semi persistent internet rumor that 7, 8, 9 will be retconned in some way at some point. I saw one … Read more

There have been many moments where I feel like my ability to communicate substantive fact has been difficult by the reaction, or apparent lack of understanding, on the other end.

I’m re-rebuilding the Subaru since last time I had a bit of porcelain or burnt valve tear up a sleeve. I have a lot of money in parts, and part of those are parts was buying a cat to weld in to the downpipe (rotated turbo setup on a Subaru). And I worry about putting … Read more
Facebook is still such a cool idea, to me. I also think its technology is really well written in terms of resource management. However, we as a species have to get used to a percentage of other people using it in a way that we might not like. Which, is actually the real underlying reason … Read more
So, the spark plugs fixed our problem! Unfortunately, the heads are being lifted. Maybe the 625 ARP Head Studs were not enough, or the head gasket failed in the EJ. So, we’re only going to run pump gas for the rest of the year. Which, is fine by us, since the mixing of booster and … Read more
One thing I forgot to mention in my last post is that the car developed a hesitation under full throttle. I think the race fuel mix I’ve been using may be fouling spark plugs, but I can’t be sure. There’s also a remote possibility that there could be a leak somewhere in the intercooler piping. … Read more
The Subaru was done last year, and it’s been a very weird time since then. It took me forever to actually drive it because I couldn’t get it to pass inspection with only one monitor not ready. While the car was tuned in June, it didn’t get through inspection and available for driving until the END … Read more
