😬 “There is no danger to Earth” ~ NASA Going forward, I think I'm going to require this type of assurance from an authoritative source daily. Fuck it, make it every six hours 😠

😠 🇬🇧 'Please, sir,' replied Oliver, 'I want some more." ONE bowl of gruel at Silverstone, laddie, one. Be thankful for it or you'll know what the business end of an iron ladle feels like... .. it's in the Magna Carta 🥣😟

🤕 🪓 😠 It's called 'Preventative Care', mates "But I feel fully fit" ~ BatMav "Well, I promise you won't be feeling so 'fully fit' if I catch you within 100 meters of the Box this weekend, Sunshine. Now fuck-off" ~ Guenther

⏱️ = ⌚️ / ⏳️ = 🐢 MotoGP has 22 rider grids. But w/3X pilots per row, one sad bastard is all by his lonesome on row 8. Such a display of tectonic velocity merits it's own award. If pole gets a watch, tail-end Charlie gets a Paracarro. "Use it as a fucking sundial, Sunshine, so it matches your pace" 😈

🏴 You're young. Society gives zero-fucks about your skint life or shite job. When you die billionaires will harvest your pristine organs. Then render your remaining bits into data-center polish. So tell the posh toffs to get stuffed with a proper hoist. PS, illegal e-bikes = just the kit for it 😈

🏍️💨 But can Odysseus still bend his bow? 🏹 Here's hoping 🎯 😉

😲 'The War of the Desalination Plants' is beyond fucking madness. Gather everything bad Trump has done, multiply that by 1000... .. and you are still exponentially short of what the world may soon reap from this evil whirlwind 😬

😇😇 The Marquez Brothers are the Christian Rock of GP Racing 😈

🦖💨 Sod the kidney mate. Apply for a grant to study Vertebrate Paleontology: An exceedingly vague two-page synopsis, couple of well-lubricated meet & greets with the Oxford Dons, tell the British Museum they can nick what's left at your funeral... .. and 'Bob's your Uncle' 💰😉👍

😬 🦈💨 AKA: "It's an Honor to learn from such an esteemed Skipper as Cap'n Quint" 😈

🇧🇪 ⚽⚽⚽⚽ 🇺🇸 ⚽ Who knew? Apparently having a Sulfurous Pervert (plus a FIFA Official in an Empty Suit) in your corner is NOT the happy path to victory 😟 Bravo België 😉👍

🇳🇴 😉 Before this is done and dusted I fully expect to see Erling Haaland sprinting the length of the Pitch with a battle-axe in one hand... .. and the opposing Goalie's head in the other 😈

🇵🇾 😈 ⚽ 🤕 🇫🇷 Cards, mate? I was thinking 'Île du Diable' for the Paraguayans... .. or maybe a Prison Hulk in Toulon Harbor 😠

😉 In the end NOBODY says no to another zero. It's more than a raise, it's a life altering leap. Statistically he'll be around for another 70 years, 60 of which he'll have to navigate AFTER his racing career is done.

Bonus Boys 😉 💰 😉 Ai grabbing Yamaha dosh: 1. He's still on his satellite rookie contract, so <$400K/year. Iwata tossed another zero on the end of that number. 2. He & Raul race for bonus money. 3. Not his fault 'silly season' = 'stupid season'... with contracts done & dusted before the break 🤨

More joy, a cracking race 🥰 And yes... sod the standings. Alonso has more potential upside at the next level than anyone else on the Moto2 grid (JMHO/YMMV) ✊️ 😉 👍

💰 --> 🕳 Ignores huge (at least in the US) cost increase on insurance premiums (BEV +45% > ICE). Charge enough premium and the Titanic is repairable. They are what they are, mate: Low energy density solutions brilliant for urban use. But obscene if masquerading as a high energy density option 🤨

😉👍 Achilles Heel of a large BEV = battery cooling system. It's why insurance companies write-off a BEV for seemingly minor structural damage: They will not accept the implied risk of a future cooling failure 🔥😬 Compact BEV = Brilliant solution for low energy density (i.e, urban) requirements.

Ahhhhh... 🥰 Proper GP bikes (Moto3*) on a proper GP circuit (Assen) is a sublime experience. (*in contrast, Moto2 bikes are just airport shuttles from Terminal Moto3 to Terminal MotoGP) 🚌💨 🤨

😉 Vegas Wedding Chapel of Speed: Vale focused 90% of his Assen set-up on the GT Chicane. Why? Because it's the only RELIABLE spot for overtakes. And before you call Rossi a cheating slut: MM93 also partially cut that last chicane. So, at best, he was just slightly less pregnant at the alter 😈

🦈💨 Even SharkBoys get the blues: Rumored to be ongoing issues w/KTM's PVRS not sealing reliably. As that's an internal component of a sealed motor, they definitely have their schniedel caught in their zipper, rules-wise. But as it's a safety and not a perf issue, MGP should allow an upgrade 🤨

🐟💨 🦏 Oh Sweet Baby Jesus... .. turns out they used 'Rhino Lining' truck bed sealer for the reflecting pool (after the original contractor told them to fuck-off with their looney-tunes schedule). I shit you not 😠

💀🥀 Nobody crosses the River Gryp... .. lest they pay the ferryman his toll 🤨 ⚙️

😬 Sod the Eye-Ties... This requires a War-Crimes Tribunal at the Hague ⚖️ 😠

🤨 🇳🇱 Might not be a bad time to reconsider the whole flammable footwear thing 🔥 😬

🇻🇳 #TeamKarl If there were even a sliver of proper Marxism on the grid, he would be breaking the bougegeoise chains of individual acheivement with a 5-year plan at Yamaha, instead of a revisionist anti-proletariat Ducati. "From each according to his ability, to each according to their needs" ✊️ 😉

🤔 Sorry... "Ogura wins 1st GP" = great headline, in the vein of 'Man bites dog'. Marc winning is just reading 'Dog bites man'... for the 100th time. The former enchants, the latter, while certainly inspirational, only makes me somnambulant. The series is better without Marc on a Factory Ducati 🤨

🤯 Alteratives? 1. Community service: Bezz gets a stick with a nail on the end and has clean the entire circuit by himself post-GP. 2. A night in 'the box'. And has to eat 50 hard-boiled eggs. 3. Races a Yamaha in Sunday's GP. Wait... that's the same penalty. "Marco only pawn in game of life" 🤨

🤨 All this 'MotoGP Concorde' rubbish and not one peep about the main issue: "Why isn't there more leopard print on the grid?" 😉 👍

🤢 I have it on good authority that ordering 'reflecting pool' cocktails has become all the rage at chic bars around Brooklyn, NYC 😋
