I peed in the now-retired famous Indianapolis Motor Speedway troughs next to Scott Sharp? Seems pretty minor to me.

the thought of being banned by someone as unserious as Pat McAfee is sublime

Coat-tailing another @iankarmel.bsky.social AFE jazz drop: what are some of #jazzsky favorite renditions of the Bobby Timmons classic Moanin'? We know Ian goes to Mingus (assuming from Blues and Roots). Here is our baseline. The OG recording. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv9N...

So today I learned what gacha heat is. Sorry parents, we're cooked.

Now referred to as The Elon Method

I am glad @iankarmel.bsky.social brought this album up! An ally! I have friends that fail to appreciate Oscar Peterson's West Side Story but I've kept it on top of the pile for decades. If you're only into the OP to hear him shred the keys, you're missing out! #jazzsky youtu.be/YJufN_okOvM?...

Was just gifted this never-worn 1992 Indy 500 coca cola polo. My first Indy 500 race day live in person.

Can I say this here? Nathan Fielder's The Rehearsal has become the Lost of this era. My friends are singularly obsessed with the mystery of the bits and who is in on The Work rather than talking about it being a good show

Wife worked concessions for a fundraiser at the Indy 500 today, so I had 18 family members over to take advantage of the Indycar viewing rig.

Jamie Little invites Rob Gronkowski to do the Indy 500 grid walk and he opens with "I'm so impressed by IMS's activations." Amazing stuff.

Saved some kitchen work for when Fox would do segments like "AI shows how Michael Strahan might have been a race car driver"

I don't get nostalgic a bunch, but seeing the feeds today has me thinking back to more casual times when you could setup early in the IMS infield and cook breakfast while they played the Monaco F1 feed on the jumbotrons before the Indy 500 pre-race started.

Behind the scenes: #IBEW broadcast professionals are getting ready to bring the #Indy500 to the world.

It's hard out in these streets

There's other jobs out there for this guy rather than a Movie Director. David O Russell could be out there crypto scamming like other sociopaths.

one of the best bits of timeline hygiene I’ve done in ages is to mute the word “Biden”

Robert Shwartzman is by far the most European basketball player coded racing driver on Earth

That's gonna be Spyro for me. Although Crash Team Racing is tempting.

Only two????? Sir, give credit where credit is due. "Yacht Rock" was the creation of at least three to possibly five jerk-offs, depending on the rigor of your definition. Accurate information is readily available on Wikipedia

Now that Eric Lipton has decided to double down on being wrong with basic english word definitions, we can officially begin the countdown to his next snarky post about the bluesky echo chamber

I've been saving Röyksopp's Nebulous Nights for the right time Tonight is that time youtu.be/t6yxvAtKASE?...

So is he letting Scott Bao or Scott Bakula decide our fate?

Pope Candidates 1a and 1b anxiously waiting the news.

Remember just yesterday when bluesky didn't do sports? 100% of my feed is now the same 3 sports-adjacent Pope jokes. Exciting times.
