This shocked me

'Eddie Jordan brought sunlight to the F1 paddock... and a dose of mischief' Twelve months after Eddie Jordan's untimely death, Matt Bishop recalls his friendship with the relentless, and occasionally outrageous, former F1 team owner, pundit and force of nature

The inimitable Eddie Jordan died #OnThisDay a year ago, aged 76. My new #MotorSport column is a tribute to a much missed friend. Click below to read it. #RIPEddieJordan

Nope. Discordant hearing these 2026 #F1 cars harvesting on straights and through corners. Yuck!

The image shows one of the straights at the Bahrain Race Track with a marker board labelled "SM" for Straight Mode activation in Formula One.

If you feel like the 2026 #F1 regs are an exercise in sado-masochism, so, apparently, do they.

@samuelsage.bsky.social Hi Samuel. Long-time listener to the pod. I've got a bit of an out of the left field request. Could you guys manage the volume of your bumper a little better? It always tries to blow my eardrums out if I'm listening at any volume where I can actually hear the presenters. Ta.

F1 getting a best picture nomination is wild. It's not a good film, and also not a good film about F1.

Done with Optica. There's been enough throwing good money after bad.

Wueh! My dreams have upgraded to IMAX this year. Wild.

Somebody's algo needs work. Pitching me semaglutide is hilarious!

Perihelion 2026.

A forlorn landscape of layered rocks in the foreground, with hills fading into the background haze. At upper top right, a small crescent moon, and a bright star.

Open up this picture fully.

Then look at the surface of Mars.

Then look up to the top right.

Spot Mars' moon Phobos high in the sky.

Then notice the bright spot beside Phobos.

That's Earth.

Of all the sins of AI, this is an unexpected and deeply annoying one

Why the words of the year show us the internet is in a death spiral Dictionaries are highlighting words that run from malevolent to meaningless – and reflect the dire state of the web today, writes Andrew Griffin

This year’s words of the year show the misery of being online.

Someone just pointed out to me that “facetious” (or “facetiously” if you wanna get kinky) contains every vowel in alphabetical order so obviously now it is my favorite word for at least the next five minutes.

You posted this tweet 4 years & 3 months ago, Lando. Well, today’s the day. #AbuDhabiGP #F1 💪

A post from ViperThreat: Worked as an on-call computer tech for about a year, and I've seen some weird shit. Plenty of Hoarders, elderly men with interesting sexual fantasies, Multimillonaire Lawyers with closets full of gay porn, etc. The weirdest one was this cool old dude who had retired and lived in a double-wide trailer in a fairly nice retirement trailer park. His house had one of those trains that traveled along the walls from room to room, occasionally poking through walls and such. The primary purpose of this train was to carry his bird (a blue macaw IIRC) around the house. From his explanation, the bird had some birth defects and had difficulty flying, so they built the train for the bird to cruise around the house on. This may not sound all that weird to you, but let me set the stage for you: You're a college student removing a stupid browser hijack from some old guy's computer. You're nearly done with the job when you hear a clacking sound and look up to see a toy train crossing your vision. Aboard the train is a decently sized bird that makes eye contact with you and says "choo choo motherfucker" before disappearing into the next room. One of the most surreal moments of my life.

Get a load of this. 😆
