#used car spares

[unpretty]

saw your post about checking your spare tire last week and thought hm yeah i should do that, then never did

guess whose car is in the shop now because they blew a tire on the highway without a spare :)

anyway you were right, check your spare tires

oh nooooooooo

#original #it was not until we blew a tire that we learned our spare had fused to our car with rust #which it had not occurred to us could happen #and our insurance no longer covered AAA #absolute worst

Oops looks like Santander accidentally sabotaged the wrong car today!

#the only car Ferrari should run every weekend is charles #Cuntos’ car should only be used for spare parts

I find it kind of silly that so many of those "time based life rule" sayings are like ~deep serious guidelines~ of some sort, but then there's that one other Well Known Rule that's just like "hrmm can I eat something off of the ground or not"

#the duality of human condition.. two biggest concerns in the modern era are attempts at self fulfilling productivity #and also 'if i drop my sandwich can i still eat it :(' #Also while capitalism is often linked with/the source of hyper productivity culture - note that I do not mean the images in that context #'meaningful to you' does not have to mean 'productive within a capitalist system'. The point is not 'every waking hour of every day #must be spent in the most societally productive grinding mindset hyper efficency mode possible' but more like #if you've always wanted to learn french ever since you were a kid and you think it would be fulfilling to you (just because you like it #absent of any larger purpose like using it for a job/monetizing it somehow/etc.). and you've just spent like 5 hours straight on tiktok #or something mindlessly scrolling the internet. maybe someimtes it'd help for your own personal fulfillment in the long #run to try to - the next time you have 5 spare hours - work on learning french or something that is actually significant to you #as a person and that you'll be glad you worked towards. instead of weeks and weeks passing by and feeling you have nothing to show for it #or etc. AAANYWAY. The images/rules themselves are also NOT the main point of this post. More just the juxtaposition of them together #and the fact that 3 of them are serious seeming while one is so mundane it seems silly in comparison. #BUT even though they're not the main point . I still didn't want it to come across as if I was like promoting or buying into capitalist #productivity culture propaganda or etc. I don't find productivity tips like this inherently bad as long as they're kind of divorced from #those ideas. I think it's still important in life to have goals even if those goals exist outside of the typical expected framework. #I mean that's actually part of why a culture of chronically exhausted overworked deprived people is damaging because if you #'re forced to spend 85% of your waking time working at some job that is perosnally meaningless to you that brings you nothing that #youre only doing under threat of starvation and houselesness and etc. then of course you don't have much time for hobbies or things you car #about and of course you'll feel more aimless and personally unsatisfied and like life is not fulfilling or interesting. #Productivity and efficiency is GOOD actually. as long as it's able to be directed in ways that are actually meaingful to the community or #individual and bring some sort of feeling of fulfillment or progress or accomplishment and working towards a person's personal ideas #of happiness whatever those are. rather than just working away aimlessly so some guy you don't know can buy a 20th house or etc. etc. #ANYWAY.. lol.. Me overthinking things perhaps.. probably not as likely #that people see the silly little cat images and go 'WOW EVIL you must be a capitalist grind culture lover' like its pretty clear #thats not the point... but... just in case... lol.. I loooove to over clarify things that don't actually need clarification

If I had a nickel for every time the children of season 1 dads had to be distributed amongst the players— and because one of the 5 aforementioned characters took a sudden one-way trip to the infernal plane, Lark specifically had to be paired off with the missing character’s correlating player— I would have two nickels.

It isn’t a lot, but I like to read into both instances for absolutely no reason. They mean something to me.

#Glenn taught Lark to drive #and I’m 90% sure he has vehicle proficiency because of this— he basically learned to drag race as his intro to driving in general #oh god he’s probably so annoying in traffic #and though she didn’t use him at all; Beth had control of Lark during the fight with Willy near the throne #what I take from this: #Lark had a phase where he tried to be as much like Glenn as possible and it genuinely hurt Glenn because that’s how his Nick was too #and i can use this as fodder for my ‘Lark is Scary’s bio dad’ crack theory (like a crack ship #; but a theory) #in all seriousness I do think lark and scary have some things in common #like. just personality-wise he doesn’t have to be her dad #dungeons and daddies #dndads season 2 #dndads #dndads spoilers #dungeons and daddies season 2 #lark oak garcia #if the kiddads were a car lark would be the spare wheel #whoever said lark was the younger of the twins i consider this evidence #when’s lark’s life-changing field trip with the Wilson family?

hm there are loads of g3 iMacs available for me to buy at decent prices too but i have to collect them in person and like. i do not have a car nor do i know somebody who could drive me there 😭

btw these are the imacs im talking about:

#i would have to get a trolley (idm doing that) but then the problem is the trains. i'd probably ask someone for help but #i wish i had a car. everyday i wish i wish i wish #this is the only apple product i will ever desire from now i used to cry for imacs and shit in the 2010s now i like. hate them #i just want it in my house to be silly on it. and also let it be a talking point when ppl come over like idk #i was gonna get the clamshell g3 ibook but most of them would be coming from overseas so the shipping costs more than the computer #and like the prices in general are not worth it IMO and ost of them are for spares and parts #*most #like all the imacs ive seen so far are all tested and worked on and even refurbished like id def get one

[daeluin]

anyways all the so called progressives in the global north talking about the need for renewables and electric cars and their fancy new tech talking about how they're doing everything to save the planet uwu

but won't spend a second thinking about the toll this is having on the global south 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

#like it shouldn't be that hard to spare a single thought about how your big ideas affect other regions in the world #or at least be honest and say you don't care about what happens in africa or latinoamerica as long as you get your new electric car lol #so eco friendly! never mind the blood on that battery!!! #anyways im really mad now i even get angry for expressing all that on their fucking language #fuck this neo colonialism #us imperialism

had beef with one of my coworkers today 😍

#— ai rambles #imagine what kind of an asshole you have to be to make me mad lmao #anyway at first i thought she was just a slow worker yk and that’s ok!! but turns out she’s just fudgeling all day long and work keeps #piling up and it’s either me or my other coworkers that have to do HER job #i was absolutely furious today when the office was full and i had to work on two contracts at the same time #and asked her (super friendly btw) if she’s able to take care of one simple car sale contract #and she was like ‘well leave the docs there i’ll get to them once i finish this thing for tomorrow’ #what is this thing — nobody knows 😍 #and it’s for tomorrow???? while you have clients right now RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU 😍 #and i snapped at her bc i also have appointments tomorrow i have to prepare for but priorities!! and common sense #people are here right now!!! waiting for you to spare 20 mins of ur precious time so they can stall their car 😍 #sell * #half of the time i have no idea what she’s doing and working on tbh and we’re not a big office like usually everyone knows what each one of #us is working on but her tasks are always a mystery a myth if you will #not very proud of myself for my choice of wording things but i was so sick of it atp and she snapped back at me but took the clients #lmao so i feel fulfilled

Friday night I went to a Joe Hisaishi tribute orchestra concert.

The concert itself was really good. But the car ride w my lil sis, big bro, and her two church friends I did not enjoy. I'm glad I got to sit by myself than sit w her and her friends. My big bro said he wished he could sit by himself too lol.

#Ella life #I didn't take many pics but I don't want to post them bc I don't want to dox myself #love being in the car for over 2 hours w people talking and joking about homophobia extreme violence and sex #this is w a nearly 30 yr old man and end of teens to early 20's joking about sex and not using the right pronouns for their own sibling #also city driving SUCKS #esp on a friday night geez louise screw that #my lil sis tried to message at the start of the concert that there were some spare seats behind her group so I could sit w them #but I only saw it when my alarm went off and 30mins already into the concert #I don't think I would have taken her up on it anyway #I just felt really bad energy being in the car w them #and my lil sis said something disturbing about her husband's road rage and how he treats her and I straight up said 'that sounds sucky' #luckily my big bro and her male friend agreed and it was a lil uncomfortable but geez #I ended up crying when I got home bc I was just sick of being stuck in the car w all the awful homophobia disability and sex talk #I'm just so happy I have a great relationship and great partner

sick of seeing these tiktok girlies be like “car essentials!!” and proceed to list things like moisturizer, lip balm, mascara, perfume, etc etc like… how about some actual essentials? jumper cables! ice scraper! blanket! flashlight! umbrella! why are all of your ~essentials~ just beauty products that you got on Amazon?? start listing things you would actually need in an emergency girl!!

#thank you for tuning in to ‘very specific pet peeves of mine’ #tbf some of the stuff they list could be useful in non-emergency situations #like deodorant or a spare toothbrush #but I just saw one where she put like twelve different kinds of lotion in a bag for the car and like?? #what even is your life where you need that much lotion in your car at all times???

[bilbao-song]

every time i think about the whole ordeal re: almost missing the elton john concert i feel like. physically ill. like i’m SOOOO glad it worked out but that was such a close call i can’t get over it even a whole entire month later

#like i don’t want to be dramatic but i never want to have that feeling ever again!!!!!!! #we had like >20 minutes to spare and were going the wrong way across a bridge with a shitload of traffic!!! #for an event like 200 miles away that cost me $400!!!! #not to mention months of buildup and excitement #worse things have happened obviously but that was like. oh my god #im honestly not even sure what happened but it wasn’t just us #like a week later i found out the same thing happened to a bunch of other people and some of them just had to miss all or most of it #also some people like????? abandoned their cars on the bridge????? #supposedly?????? #me if left to my own devices tbh. #like im insane enough about concerts that i would probably do something like that if i was in that situation alone #nonsense rambling #elton john

"please watch this" so you do and it's one of the stupidest scenes you've seen in a while with a school playground wooden sword "fight" and the enemy conveniently running back ten feet exactly to the perfect spot where the car can hit her lmao

#oh shit let me just hop over there where my hit by a car mark is #so that it doesn't accidentally hit johnny boy instead #and then spend the spare time i could have used jumping away from the vehicle coming my way #on opening the portal with the last of our vfx budget #did that whole show look like a kindergarten production of the nativity scene or?

Everything is shit and I want to die 👍

Still trucking but god damn I’m wondering why I bother anymore

#littlest bullshit setting me off #I can’t write #I can’t win a single fucking match of magic #I have to work six more fucking days before my next day off #i still haven’t gotten my ducking med refilled because I have literally less than $1 in my bank #my car is still sitting in its spare tire #everything is fucked and I deserve to die anyway so what’s the point #I can’t do anything useful for anyone anyway #I provide no unique value to the world

Minnesota Nice is giving the people you bounced your car off of theirs on the freeway after the back tire popped a can of lemonade while you all wait for the police/road service to sort things out

#blah blah blah #shut up snowy #that's one way to start off a vacation in another state i guess #upside; no one was hurt #downside; my sister's car's banged up and in dire need of a better spare tire #but at least this all happened in the during the day; and all of us together so she wasn't alone when her tire popped #anyways; we made it back to her place in one piece so yay

[tymorrowland]

just got back into my apartment after being locked out without my phone for 5 hours 🙃

#the anxiety i had to ask someone to use their phone to call the building people almost killed me #literally thought about busting open my car to get my spare keys
