“NO KINGS! Heh ha ha heh!”

When this song came on my Sirius XM radio today, I thought at first they were playing a song by @amerrill2.bsky.social youtu.be/-Hrvsvm0Fo0?...

UPS just dropped this off. Thad Moffitt’s Petty 75th Anniversary truck from Darlington last April. My name is on the bed, right behind the passenger’s side rollbar, just as it was on the real truck.

Hey @chris.dumb-industries.com can you share some info on the shirt you’re wearing tonight on the Mads show? #TheMadsAreBack

Wow

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Fuck yes!

Waiting out the cold by watching Cartoon Planet starring @amerrill2.bsky.social from my own private collection. Who ate Zorak’s chicken sandwich?

With love and respect to all my trans friends and family across the Atlantic on this dark day

Rough night tonight for Dale Earnhardt in the 1991 summer Richmond race. Of the 13 cautions on the night, Earnhardt was involved in six of them. Damn if I would want to talk to him after the race. I won the race under caution after the last wreck between him and Michael Waltrip. @gplaps.bsky.social

I can tell when I am in sim racing mode as this starts playing in my head. @gplaps.bsky.social

Sweet little Freja #244895 is just 1 year old. She landed in deadly Apple Valley CA as a stray and is past her deadline. A nervous puppy who's "pending euthanasia" in a pound with a malicious 25% live release rate, she's in desperate need of help.

I didn't get a chance to run the next race in my 1991 NASCAR 3 sim season (the Coke 600), but I did put in some time on getting my car for NASCAR Legends ready. Here's the No. 32 Cheerwine Dodge Daytona (with period correct Cheerwine logos). I used @gplaps.bsky.social No. 71 Isaac Dodge as a base.

Happy New Year from the Marx Brothers!

Hoping 2025 is the year someone discovers a copy of the lost Marx Brothers film, Humor Risk (1921).

When I was doing the weekly motorsports podcast with Pete McCole and Amy Henderson, I always wanted to have @olbermann.bsky.social on to talk about the effect racing had on helping ESPN build its audience, the effect ESPN had in bringing racing out of the agate type and all the Dick Trickle jokes.
