Decisions, decisions! Honestly, choosing a car can feel like a bit of a nightmare. I’ve been on this journey for a few months now, and I’m torn between the 2021 Mazda M3 2.5 Turbo and the Mazda M3 Premium. And, of course, there’s the Impreza Sport that’s still in the running. I’m still undecided! But I’m excited to finally make a choice soon. Each of these cars has its own appeal, and it’s tough to pick just one.
Another visit to the DMV to convert my driver’s license. I’m officially a District of Columbia resident now!
A beautiful view to end out the day.
Copa América 2024 Quarterfinals and my favorite Cider.
Lewis set the fastest qualifying time of the day in Q2, but unfortunately, he couldn’t replicate that performance in Q3. It appears that Mercedes brought a strong car this weekend, but Lewis was unable to capitalize on it. Can the 2025 season get here already? S/o to Russel for getting pole position for tomorrow. 🏎️
The FIA presented new regulations for Formula 1, starting in 2026, aiming to make the sport more thrilling, competitive, and sustainable. Key changes include the introduction of more agile cars and a focus on reducing environmental impact. Efficiency improvements were the major focus, with advanced hybrid engines and more efficient power units coming into play. A cost cap will level the playing field, giving smaller teams a fair chance. (lie) The FIA also stated its plans to boost global fan engagement, making the sport more accessible worldwide. (money move) Along with goals of electrification and carbon neutrality, these regulations promise a dynamic and responsible future for Formula 1.

Red Bull’s Formula 1 car will be displayed at the DC on the 20th during the “Red Bull Showrun,” on Pennsylvania Avenue featuring former driver David Coulthard. I’m not fond of Red Bull’s F1 team, the company does dope work, hosting numerous community events and investing in underserved communities worldwide. Along with their diverse variety of extreme sports. Red Bull events are pretty dope. 🏎️

The start of a well needed walk.
A typical qualifying performance from Mercedes' Lewis in P7 and Russell in P9. Can this season just end now. #JapaneseGP #F1 🏎️

“Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” - James Baldwin
The power of acknowledgment and the courage needed to seek transformation.
I’m still figuring out why Reddit restricts access to its API for third-party apps. I miss using apps like Apollo. I understand move was part of Reddit’s broader strategy to monetize its platform and manage its resources more effectively. The way Reddit went about it was completely wrong.
As I age, I’m coming to realize that not everything is meant to be spoken or expressed. Certain things, regardless of their significance, are better left unsaid. Life has its own way of delivering messages on our behalf, teaching us the art of communication beyond words. Emotions, a universal experience, move through our interactions, revealing themselves not just in what we say but in the shared silences, the glances that speak volumes, and the actions that echo louder than any words could. By understanding this brings a new depth to relationships, highlighting the importance of empathy, the unspoken bond between souls, and the subtle ways we connect with each other. It’s a profound reminder that sometimes the most powerful messages are those felt in the heart rather than heard with the ears.
I haven’t followed much of women’s college basketball closely, but it’s evident that the women’s collegiate level is moving the sport to new heights. The diversity of the talent leading their teams is pretty amazing to watch. I think we all can agree that Caitlin Clark and JuJu are generational talents. It would be wise for the WNBA to consider changing the eligibility requirement to 1-2 years of college play. Additionally, expanding the league by adding more teams would be beneficial, given the abundance of talent available. 🏀
Not quite sure if I should join Mastodon or not.
