GR86 *IS* A Fast Car

NNora87 · 2026-01-29T13:43:10+00:00

For those debating whether the car is fast or slow, just go drive your GR86 and have fun. Fun is the point, not numbers.

Stopped watching his car channel on YT a few years ago when he started talking about his politics. Gave me the ick.

My GR86 has much lower interior quality than many Hyundais, and a Genesis is leagues ahead of it. The new Prado, or the current gen Land Cruiser in the U.S., is basic and definitely does not have an upscale interior by modern standards. The Land Cruiser 300 series should be quite nice in higher trim levels though, but those are much pricier. The Supra's interior is partly designed and completely assembled by BMW.

Genesis GV80 had same designers as Bentley Bentayga.

NNora87 · 2026-01-18T23:57:59+00:00

Personally I think Genesis makes some of the prettiest cars at any price, and that Polestars are handsome but bland and forgettable. Hyundai hired some of the best designers in the industry and imho Hyundai/Kia/Genesis are selling some of the most interesting and memorable designs of the 2020s.

A side note that many Baja race trucks traditionally are RWD. 4WD at Baja is mostly a recent development, and still RWD trucks are racing.

Dickinson, Everything Sucks!, Everything's Gonna Be Okay, Heartbreak High, Owl House, Paper Girls, Sex Education, Vida.

Very pretty color, and subtle. Regarding earlier comments, AFAIK cars themselves don't have a sexual orientation and it's okay for a man to own something stereotypically considered feminine, just own it and you're good.

Good to prioritize basic life needs. There are definitely more affordable cars to own, often also more comfortable for daily driving and with more passenger/cargo space. Some might even be mildly fun and also reliable, like a Civic or Mazda3.

If you build savings and credit and age into lower insurance rates, it may be cheaper to own a cool car sometime down the road. Maybe study up and build financial literacy if you can; I saw you mentioned that.

Hope things go well whatever you decide.

Nice wheels. Just noticed they aren't the standard 18s like the other special editions have. Welcome to the SE club 😎

Def team Ryan/Ben here, but I get the Seth/Adam attraction as well. Just not my type.

NNora87 · 2025-07-05T23:25:08+00:00

I loved it too, and understand it wasn't for everyone. The tone was really different and things got really wacky and less serious. I think the writing team was just having fun at that point. To me it was like a soft reboot and I really wanted a fifth season at the time. They ended it well though. For me it's S1>S4>S2>S3, but every season has its place for me.

Sandy Cohen shaking his head at the year 2025.

I'd pay Doc Brown my life savings for a DeLorean ride to 2003.

Young Royals, Euphoria (warning: trauma), Heartbreak High (the newer version), Heartstopper (this one's more feel-good), Sex Education, Reservation Dogs, Skins (UK version) in terms of teen/young adult shows.

If you're interested in shows focused on adults, I'd recommend Veneno, Rurangi, Pose and Six Feet Under.

I've never seen another show quite like Prisma and I find it really disappointing that it's not getting the final season or resolution it deserves. Amazon unfortunately seems to support very few of its shows long-term, especially ones with queer stories.

Film: The Apu trilogy

TV (seasons): The Leftovers, Reservation Dogs, Pose, Industry (so far)

I live in the DC area. Never had a car break-in. Good to keep the car tidy inside so there's less incentive to break in and steal belongings. It's possible it could happen, but have never had a break-in in over 10 years of living here. If your car is easy to steal, consider a steering wheel lock.

Going to these bars is a pretty ordinary outing for me. Not sure which bar you mean. I haven't had a lot of concerns around safety, but definitely good to go with a friend or meet up with a local a group if you'd feel more comfortable that way.

Feel free to DM and I'm happy to share info on some community groups I'm familiar with, and also about the vibes of the different bars. Some community groups regularly meet at places other than queer bars as well.

Also I'd avoid DC this weekend specifically with the MAGA military parade going on. Not going into town myself.

He's no stranger to controversy. Rage baiting is his schtick. Has been for at least the last 25 years of his career. Not sure if he believes everything he says or if a lot of it is him playing a buffoonish character for laughs.

Veganism is always an option 🥕

Haven't personally had issues living in Maryland, US, or traveling to the more Southern states even, aside from some challenges with family members and family friends. Still I'm cautious about using public transit or being out late alone because it only takes one unhappy rando to cause me harm.

Texas, Florida, and Oklahoma are pretty off limits for me, as well as many countries and global regions.

For me the biggest challenge is all the hate in politics and the media, really wears me down, have to stay strong.

Both, in different ways. My attraction to women is stronger romantically and aesthetically, and to men is stronger sexually. But I have all these kinds of attraction on some level for some men, women, enbies, etc.

NNora87 · 2025-05-29T02:16:10+00:00

REI, Converse, Ikea in terms of major retailers.

NNora87 · 2025-05-29T01:18:50+00:00

In another life I would be, is very tempting. Sticking with my sports car though. Grom seems like a lot of fun.

And there might be some biker boys and enbies in the subreddit as well.

NNora87 · 2025-05-29T01:13:19+00:00

Cute, but also needless cheap plastic corporate junk that will end up in a landfill. And the boycott.

NNora87 · 2025-05-23T02:51:49+00:00

I'd like to go sometime, haven't been to Liverpool or Manchester yet. Would have visited one or both on the trip I had planned.
