The "YellaWood" logo at the top of the leaderboard keeps making me think there's a caution.... #NASCAR

I buy and grow organic, regardless of the cost. Organic food is more sustainable and far less toxic to the environment than conventional, and organic horticulture and agriculture can *literally* reclaim farmland from desert or wasteland if practiced intensively. No reason to buy conventional.

Fare thee well, John Lodge. I am glad I got to see you in concert many times and I have always wished I could be a fly on the wall in the Moodies heyday. Rest in peace.

Happy happy happy!

ICE attempted and failed to disappear a food delivery guy. It needed to be scored.

PLEASE stop using Chat GPT and other AI. If Big Business gets their way, soon the only new "music" you hear, the only new "art" you see, the only "news" you read will be AI-generated by programs controlled by Big Business, to the incredible detriment of real live musicians, artists, and >

Brooksie! Followed by Brady Golan and Titus Sherlock. All #USFProChampionships alums.

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated. Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms. Collective boycott. Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

When antifascists ("Antifa") are the Enemy of the State... ...the State is Fascist. There are no two ways about it. Chump just declared the US a fascist state.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

The alleged shooter, the one Trump announced he'd caught this morning, is reportedly a 22 year old, straight, white, Christian male, a Trump loving MAGA, the son of a cop turned evangelical minister, from a Trump loving MAGA family of gun nuts. Seems Charlie Kirk radicalized Charlie Kirk's killer

"No place for political violence in this country" says country where political violence is now the daily norm and those in power loudly refuse to do anything to stop it or limit access to the tools that make it easy.

"Papers, please," is now effectively *legal* in the Los Angeles area. ...And ICE fails to understand how they can possibly be called Gestapo.

ICE awarded $2.25 million for 25 Chevrolet Tahoe SUVs...to Hendrick Motorsports LLC.... The contract... was awarded under a sole-source contract, because of “unusual and compelling urgency.” Seriously? Do better #NASCAR.

LADIES/THEYDEES/FEMS The Christian fundamentalists are talking about taking away our right to vote. IF THIS OCCURS: We must ALL UNITE in solidarity and GO ON STRIKE. We must strike from work, from childcare (where men can do it), from sex, from homecare, from cooking, from EVERYTHING. PASS IT ON

Want to see my pics from the races? You can find my gallery on FB because that's the only platform that allows large albums. All my albums are public and mostly #USFProChampionships, but you'll find a few #IndyCar & #IndyNXT shots occasionally. Hope you enjoy! www.facebook.com/share/175P4X...

This needed a congrats! I'm only sorry I wasn't there to see it in person. 😊 Next year maybe, depending on scheduling, I might get to my first NASCAR race. #BubbaWallace #Brickyard400 #NASCAR

England won. Terrific. Now piss off and give me MONTEREY, dammit! #IndyCar

I REALLY did not need an ad for Java House inserted into the non-advert part of the broadcast and sanctioned by the commentators. 😖

Is it just me, or is this platform slowing down? I don't use Xhitter any more, but even the busy accounts don't seem to post much here any more.

How do I know the masked man showing up at my workplace in an unmarked street car isn't some right-wing ammosexual thug who decided to get up off his La-Z-Boy and come to my workplace to kidnap my co-workers and sell them to a sex trafficking ring? No Proof = No Cooperation.

"The issue of government has always been whether individual men and women will have to serve some system of government and economics, or whether a system of government and economics exists to serve individual men and women."  —FDR, 1932

¡Vamos Pato!

Did they really keep that under yellow deliberately for the commercial break?!?! There was zero reason to do that!

The number of adverts at the beginning of this race broadcast is absolutely ridiculous. #Sync275 #IndyCar

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

It's always nice to be wearing the shirt of your preferred race winner. 😁 Congrats, Caleb Gafarar!!!

#RoadAmerica has a new designation.

Traveler's Report Fair winds and following seas from I-294 at I-55 all the way to Milwaukee, only very minor construction. North of the Downtown area, it drops down to 2 lanes for a few miles, opens up again to 3, then back down to 2 South of Mequon. A few miles of that and smooth to the track. 🏁

It's 162 miles to #RoadAmerica. I got a full tank of gas, Half a pack of fruit jerky, It's dark, And I'm wearing prescription glasses. Hit it!

Now I lay me down to sleep, Into my dreams, my track will creep, In Elkhart Lake, I'll find that sound, At 4am I'm homeward-bound. #RoadAmerica #HomeTrack #ILoveThisPlace #LETSGOOOOOOO

F1 needs to start taking care of its feeder series. IndyNXT is an IndyCar feeder, not a fallback for former F2 drivers who are clearly talented enough for F1, but can't get there because of F1's cost and insularity. Do better, #F1. These drivers should be your future; try and act like you care.

Okay, you've beaten the "high agency males" meme to death. Neither of them could tell you the difference between "proactive" and "reactive" and it really shows.

I never, ever want to hear again that women are too emotional to be leaders.

That's my boy! Watched him come up from F1600 all the way to IndyCar. He's always been the real deal. #KyleKirkwood #KirkKirkwood #DetroitGP #IndyCar

Go Kirk!!!

FORTY years ago, we all sang We Are the World and raised money for USA For Africa. Today, this is what this country has become. And the true shame of it all is that these people all call themselves Christians & pretend this is "god's will." Clearly they don't believe they'll suffer for eternity.

I. Will NEVER. Use. ChatGPT. Or. Any. Other. AI. Because. They're. CRAP! They don't produce "content." They produce throwaway garbage and I refuse to use them for any reason. They replace true creativity and skill with derivative trash. They are useless, worthless, and will never cross my path.

What's the best way to put a longshot bet on Connor Zilisch?

The 2025 #IndyCar season is Palouver. Can we just send him back to F1 now and achieve some parity again?

Any word on Nolan Siegel's crash on the last lap? #Indy500 #IndyCar

Fuck that.

The fact that I somehow anticipated all this weirdness does not comfort me. The original question I was asking was what year we had the first ~three rows crash out on the start. It was the US 500 at Michigan and not Indy I was remembering. Please keep it sane from here on out. Please.

Dammit, I want Pato to serve me pancakes now....

'Twas the night before Indy, And all through the house, Everybody was stirring, Like a caffeinated mouse. The bunting was hung, On the porch rail with care, In the hopes that the Spectacle, Soon would be there....

Woohoo! Go Mac!
