Well, as Jalopnik’s most brain-damaged writer, I’m certainly in no position to judge someone else if their recollection is also a bit spotty. Read more

It’s actually a great omen. G/O sold us to Static Media on Monday, meaning we’re no longer part of G/O Media. Notifications and comments are still on Kinja for now, but that should change...at some point? Details are a little scarce at the moment. Read more

When in the history of the internet was Jalopnik ever a straight news site?  Read more

Even if you skip the actual definition of free speech as defined in the 1st Amendment and later interpreted in landmark court cases such as Brandenburg v. Ohio, and you go with Elon’s version, he’s still a hypocrite.” Read more

Unfortunately for us, since this only happened yesterday, we don’t know much, but we’re going to fight as hard as we can to keep the comments under the new owners. The good news, the company that bought us is an actual media company and not some random AI startup just looking to buy a name, so while I’m sure there Read more

Thanks! And yeah, I suspect that person was using their own overthinking to explain whatever study they found. Or they read a bunch about disaster preparedness to ease their anxiety, which certainly isn’t a bad thing. Whatever gets more people better prepared for disasters. Read more

Like not wearing oversized and poorly fitting button downs allegedly makes me look like I moved here from NYC? The distinction between social and Read more

Definitely didn’t want to freak anybody out, but let’s just say I metaphoricallly touched the veil between the worlds, and while I’m in no immediate danger anymore, feeling like everything from here on out is just bonus time definitely puts a lot of things into perspective. So much stuff really just doesn’t matter. At Read more

In general, I’d agree, although Starling Blue Magno is NOT a subtle color, especially on a coupe that always has the exhaust in loud mode (to improve fuel economy, of course). Read more

I’ll be honest, I was pretty out of it by the time I got to the hospital, so who knows that they gave me. Probably not ketamine (although using it as part of therapy defintiely sounds tempting). You’d think someone would have mentioned it. Then again, they also sent me home with medicine I later found out was a benzo Read more

I mean, brisket isn’t going to be cheap no matter what corners they cut.  Read more

Asking a fast food restaurant to cut your burger in half should be a felony. Read more

If I write about it, though, maybe I’d be able to do it for free... Read more
