It's so over for a yone who commented the phrase

Like a month ago I'm getting gas and this Ferrari pulls up at the pump next to me. The guy comes out and starts up a conversation about my Porsche and we exchange numbers. A few weeks later I post a picture of a Vector W8 I spotted and he gives me a call. Turns out he was involved with the guy who started Vector back in the day. I mention taking some photos of his car and he says that would be great. We make plans, the plans fall through a few times, but in the meantime he has a project for me.

He bought a Polaris side-by-side for his neurodivergent son and wants the color changed and it to have a racing livery like a monster truck. I say I could probably make that happen and get to designing.

Today I go over to his house to go over some of the design choices, and he says we can shoot his car tonight but it needs to be washed first. He hands me the keys, says to take it for a spin, hand wash it, and he'll pay me $25/hour to do so. Also there are a few other things around the house that need to be handled and he'll pay me hourly to do that as well.

Oh, and he also introduces me to his house manager. She's stunning.

So I find myself cruising some of my favorite back roads in a V12 Ferrari before carefully washing it in an air conditioned garage.

Tonight, I find myself hanging out the back of my Volvo getting the photoshoot I wanted.

Tomorrow I'm driving a few hours to the powersports dealership to pick up this Polaris. He says he wants me to break it in as well.

This isn't the first time I've fallen into a series of odd jobs, but it's been awhile and it feels good.

Edit: one of the results -

I hope our sexy Indian dude drama-friends are doing fine considering the current heat wave you guys are going through. But it's possible the 52 C recorded could be due to a faulty sensor.

https://theguardian.com/world/article/2024/may/29/delhi-temperature-hits-499c-as-indias-capital-records-hottest-day

Anyway, here are the people at /r/climatechange discussing the incoming collapse and total extinction of the sub-continent and eventually the whole world.

Someone calculated how long until a single heat wave kills a million people in India. It was surprisingly close like 1 decade away. India will be unlivable as a country soon due to heat waves and there will be billions of people fleeing the country. Unbearable is an understatement.

I can't imagine how they are coping. I live in Florida and my air broke over the weekend. It reached into the 90s inside of the house and it was miserable. I couldn't think straight and all I wanted was to just lay down under a fan all day not moving. My pets could not sleep at night it was so hot and humid. I think about all of these poor animals that will die this horrible death so one species's greed

Floridan dramatards, thoughts? I only went to Florida during winter, mild winter close to that of where I live.

I'm surprised India wouldn't be going all-in on renewable technologies/energy if they're starting to see temps above 125F. What is life going to look like in 2040? Millions dying from heat? I hope not

Yes. Exactly. People have modeled it and this is the future.

So, revolution when?

Climate change?

Some people are not having it

Turns out that the temperature reading we're talking about was anectodal, cherrypicked, false, and not even taken in Delhi:

https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/Delhi/record-breaking-delhi-temperature-could-have-been-due-to-a-faulty-instrument/article68233451.ece

Today in Delhi top temp is around 46 C, which sounds crazy hot to us westerners, but it's totally normal for the hottest days of the year in that part of India, and is expected to drop in the next days.

And here's more doom!

https://old.reddit.com/r/climatechange/comments/1d4le6a/cleaner_ship_emissions_may_warm_the_planet_far/?sort=controversial

Ok. Let's assume emissions were immediately zero, right? The cleaner air will accelerate the speed of global warming. The rate has doubled since 2010 due to low sulfur bunker C ship fuel regulations.

Taking this example further… James Hansen and the team at Columbia University estimate that the current atmospheric composition would result in earth being 8 - 10 degrees CELSIUS warmer than today. It will take roughly 10,000 years of warming for temperature to equalize. It's an exponential function so the last 1000 years the temperature wouldn't change nearly as fast.

We are F-U-C-K-E-D.

What? Where did he pull that 10 C warming?

I'll never get over what some neighbor told me:

"Did you know your neighbor Wally got pap pap and put in a coffin?"

No! Why my neighbor took a fall?

Saw my neighbor try to swing them dums, (in the war) so we lost him

But, darn, why did ya have to kill 'um?

I never did think it'd be one of my trues to get caught up in redrum

I sit and I pray everyday: God, don't let me get smoked

Oh no, a neighbor ain't scared to go, but I still got a lot to live for

But so did my neighbor, my neighbor--he gone

And all that he left are his memories

But when I die, you gon' see me

One, two, three, Wally rest in peace

Can a neighbor tell me why so many my neighbors had to die, so much pain

Even neighbors in the hood is no good, puttin one to your own homie's brain

And a neighbor gettin' high, thinkin' back, in the days when we did some fricked-up thangs

Now, I gotta ask God if that's the reason my homie's gone away

And I gotta give hate to you gangstas out there fakin' the funk

Actin' like you got a problem, but you're just too goddarned drunk

Put down your forties, pick up your fists, and handle that shit like men

Cause too many punks out there pumpin', thinkin' your gat is your friend

And, Wally, even though you're (gone, gone, gone)

You've still got love from (bone, bone, bone)

My neighbor, just rest your (soul, soul, soul)

Come and take a good look deep into these thuggish-ruggish eyes, see the thugstas cry

And I'm askin' the good Lord "Why?" and sigh, he told me we live to die

Not another on the team with a dream that can deal with the struggles, like you Wally

I love you to death, but I wish I could have seen through your troubles

And it's hard to say good-bye to another...Bone

I'm feelin' all in the dumps, and all of a sudden, I'm so alone

Stay strong and hold on to a lifetime of memories

You're livin' off in my prayers

Gotta let the Man upstairs know that somebody cares

Just wait, and I'll be there

When I heard the word at Kerm's, Shorty said, "Oh, my Lord,"

Layin' on the curb on a hundred and twenty-third, bled, dead to the world

How bad? And what about Looney, now? Darn, she gon' act a fool

Outa the blue, seemed to, she knew what happened to Wally, she lost her cool

Remember my thug, when I got mo' love. Sippin' on 8-ball

Used to tell him to pass the weed

I wish I could tell him to smoke it allNot my dogg

The mission is deep, peep, so listen up while ya sleep:

To get where you're headed you must make a heaven of heck

And then neighbor, you'll smooth creep

And, Wally, even though you're (gone, gone, gone)

You've still got love from (bone, bone, bone)

My neighbor, just rest your (soul, soul, soul)

I'm dying my hair tomorrow and why the frick am i always getting appointments on the first of June. I'm getting pink hair because I used to love fricking with patients and now just actually enjoy the color. Why can't it be any day that isn't the start of pride.
