  1. Skurred to death lol. I see they're still spewing the lie that Kamala had an advisor in her ear during the debate, too.
  2. It happens fairly commonly with the higher profile drivers when they leave. There were big to-dos when Alonso 'retired', when Schumi, Vettel, Massa & Kimi retired, etc. Danny isn't quite Schumi & Alonso level, but he's very good and is no scrub or pay driver, either. I don't hate Red Bull, but after what he contributed to F1 & the team(s) for what, a decade, he deserved a proper sendoff, even if it was a modest one.
  3. Hey I knew a Sam Frisby in high school in Conroe a hundred years ago ...
  4. Yep. And a gathering of the team in the paddock, a round of applause, hugs & well-wishes, getting together with other drivers, taking photos, etc. It's simple & easy.
  5. Yeah he's fun to root for. Cool helmet. Very Alonso.
  6. Re: Trump fucking over people in contracts/business deals, I'm watching Theo Von's new podcast with Cuban right now. He just finished talking about how Trump offered Barbara Corcoran $4M to sell some of his condos. She sold them all, and then he flat refused to pay her. She had to sue him to recover what she was owed. That's classic Bobby Epstein shit. Apparently, though, that shit is far more common than I ever thought. Fuckers like those assholes can eat a thousand dicks and die in a fire. Lots of talk about why he likes Kamala, why he doesn't like or trust Trump, etc, and some good stories as well.
  7. Big Tex ...
  8. Oh my. That's a good sign. "The polls are wrong!" They're getting desperate.
  9. That seems like it might not suck.
  10. Man, I'm really digging what Cuban is bringing. I've really become a big fan. Dude is out there kicking ass for Kamala.
  11. Oh, this storm's for sure gonna fuck.
  12. Love, love, love your avatar. She's one of my all-time favorites. Mmm ...
  13. First response I see there ...
  14. Oof. Sounds so much like COTA's Bobby Epstein. Investors, vendors, etc ... beware. If you enter into a contract with him, prepare thy anus. Be prepared for him to withhold payment or slow-pay, while simultaneously holding you strictly to every letter of the deal. Don't like it? He just says, 'OK. Sue me. I have lawyers in tall buildings who'll work it out with you in court'. He's fucked so many people, it amazes me that anyone still does any kind of business with the guy.
  15. Yep. He's a loose cannon with the fuse lit, rolling around on the deck ... and I mean that in respect to everything, not just businesses and the economy.
  16. Yep. Stupid is a big part of the problem. But there's more to it imho. Look at the myriad, daily straight up lies, false claims, unkeepable promises, race-baiting, fear-mongering, hate-mongering, misogyny, abject nonsensical crazy talk, promoting insurrection, using lies to demonize groups of people based on immigration status and indeed skin color, killing the immigration bill because it might help Biden while also helping with the problem, vote suppression, setting up future unrest with the talk that 'If I lose, the election is rigged', saying people who openly disagree with the supreme court should be in jail, etc, etc, etc. The list goes on and on. As most of you know, I'm only scratching the surface here. Trump talks so much craziness and utter stupidity each day that it's just become par for the course. His base doesn't fact-check anything he says and they just buy into it hook, line, and sinker ... because he's saying what they want to hear: 'All of your problems are someone else's fault, and if we get rid of them, we'll all live in a worry-free paradise'. Sound familiar? One candidate is a typical politician. The other is unhinged. That's the choice we're looking at. It's not a difficult one at all. It's patently obvious to anyone with two working brain cells to rub together, who's been paying even the slightest bit of attention, that Trump is unfit for office. I've never seen a more obvious example of 'unfit for office' in my life. God bless the 'undecided' voter in this election. How do they even get through a typical day? Bless their little hearts.
  17. Yeah I was pretty active on twitter until Elon bought it. Since then, even though my activity has dropped significantly, I still get new followers all the time, just like what you describe. Dude absolutely destroyed twitter.
  18. Except this time the OWG spent years and lots of resources to determine a way to improve following. And it worked wonders for a little while ... until the teams who couldn't get it right complained loudly enough on the grounds of 'safety concerns' (lol), and it all went out the window. It wasn't so much clawed back through development. The work of the OWG was simply neutered.
  19. LOL, I don't think so! ETA: I just googled that. LMFAO.
  20. Este. Any Republicans who want their 'old Republican Party' back someday, need to be voting for Harris now.
  21. I was thinking I might get one of these signs for my yard. My Trumpy nextdoor neighbor's head will explode. Too bad they misspelled fascism though, but I guess 'facism' is probably a bad thing, too.
