I probably blocked you on Twitter & will probably block you here. Sportscar and IndyCar posts aplenty here. Out of the game and still better at motorsports rumors than your favorite media members. Don't care about your newsletter, podcast, Patreon, etc.

I don't know who some of y'all that follow me are, and that's pretty cool cause it means you have no idea what kind of horrible shit I'm gonna add to your timeline.

Hi. I like sportscar and IndyCar. My "content" is unhinged memes and everything else. You're free to mute or block me. Enjoy the ride!

Y'all have no idea how fucking funny it was to watch this for like 10 minutes while they tried to figure out why the door wouldn't close.

Crown sales figures are bad so you might as well centralize production instead of building it in a bunch of places globally.

The weird, lifted full-size sedan crossover thing that Toyota is doing isn't popular in the US and especially not at $15k over their bestselling vehicle. Or vs the Signia.

Cas Piancey @cascoinfoundation.org · 7h

Does anyone know why Toyota doesn’t make their luxury vehicles in the US?

I love the Crown and I’m sad it’s unavailable.

WAIT A MINUTE, Fred is at the track????

🤔🤷‍♂️ @tightoff.bsky.social · 9h

Four hours of funishment yesterday plus only 6 hours of walking the track today and I'm wiped out.

Tomorrow I'll be at the track for 12+ hours most likely. I may be dead by Friday morning.

I guess way smaller battery for the way lower range, which means cheaper to build.

I love that spectator hill at the track has its own NWS location data.

Not loving the "it'll probably be in the 50s tomorrow night at the end of night practice" part as much.

Most surprising part of the day:

Aaron Carter's music playing at the Michelin display.

And by that I mean the stuff when he was like 7.

You seem instead of why nobody thinks this is weird or gross, so uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

The South Park sponsored content episode was how many years ago and people still don't understand how these things work?

Amazon pays via either actual payments for sponsored content, or via their very generous affiliate revenue sharing. These places make bank off this.

twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

Aside from the lady at the gate throwing the fan guide at me and hitting me in the face after checking my ticket (I was dying laughing at it cause it was fucking funny), for once, no issues getting into PLM.

It's hard to tell it's shiny even with the sparkle effect thing.

I think my gotcha got it on a walk one day and I was like "HOLY SHIT!" and my roommate was like "big deal, I have like 3"

🤔🤷‍♂️ @tightoff.bsky.social · 1d

Goldeen was my last "normal" shiny. Which is made more annoying by the fact that the pond in downtown that you can walk around has a spawn point that is almost always a Goldeen.

Oh shit!

I'm only missing (technically) Kanto Farfetch'd and Mr. Mime.

Over 5 years later and I'm still mad at myself for not buying Philly Safari Zone tickets. It's THE ONLY KANTO SHINY THE GAME SAYS I DON'T HAVE (cause Galarian Farfetch'd).

$5,793,000 to build a reservoir to provide water supply to 450 people.

No wonder the town's coffers were empty. I have a LOT of questions about this project and why it was approved, and what the USDA thought was going to happen.

sandra fish @fishnette.bsky.social · 1d

realized something was up in Aguilar earlier this year when i sought 2024 open records requests from state agencies and a reporter was requesting lots of info she couldn't get from the city. #copolitics

Former clerk for small Colorado town accused of diverting $26k from water project to personal accounts

The town of Aguilar has since set up a separate water account for the project designed to ensure long-term water access for the town of 450

Local PDs are already mad at them anyway, might as well ramp that up quite a bit.

Just wondering why ICE can do this and get away with it if everyone agrees it's against the law. I mean, I know *why*, but you get the point.

Oh good. Our student loan system isn't beyond fucky or anything already.

By the way, response times from the DOEd on something ordered by courts is currently estimated at 12-16 months.

Only a lunatic would be at the track tomorrow with thunderstorms in the forecast and just P&Q for the support series on the schedule.
