@mattforney "subsequently turned into a stinking ghetto, white people stopped going there, stores closed up shop. A few years ago it was finally abandoned and bulldozed in favor of luxury apartments." Many such cases

People stopped going to malls when it became impossible to arrest black teenagers for rioting and stealing. Some malls implemented bans on unescorted minors, which drove the black teens to other malls which they subsequently destroyed. In Syracuse growing up, we had three main malls: Carousel Center (now Destiny USA), Shoppingtown, and Great Northern Mall. In the early 2000s, Carousel Center owner Pyramid implemented a ban on unescorted minors across all its malls (which include Crossgates in Albany, the Palisades Center in Rockland County, the Champlain Centre in Plattsburgh, and a bunch more), which sent the black teens to Shoppingtown (Great Northern was too far away for them to access by bus). Shoppingtown subsequently turned into a stinking ghetto, white people stopped going there, stores closed up shop. A few years ago it was finally abandoned and bulldozed in favor of luxury apartments. I've been to malls in other countries and they still thrive because they don't have a pandemic of black teenagers wilding out. The malls in the Philippines are beautiful; the Mall of Asia has an indoor skating rink and Greenbelt has a massive aquarium full of exotic fish. The malls in Hungary are nice. The malls in Georgia are nice; the East Point Mall even has a BIG LEBOWSKI-themed bowling alley. The malls in Mexico are nice. Even the malls in Poland, Serbia, and Bosnia are nice. But we can't have nice things in America anymore.

@Watchman_motto I need help with this

Almost everyone can achieve this, but almost nobody does.

@markmartin We do too Mark

I miss those days and Dale.

@SandyofCthulhu Don't forget fungi

We have gigantic creatures in the sea which can sing for hours and have arteries so big you can crawl through them. (whales) We have birds that fly 50,000 miles every year. From the antarctic to the arctic and back again. (arctic tern) We have living creatures which never get old and never die naturally. (jellyfish) We have animals which you can force through a sieve, and they can reassemble themselves. (sponges) We have an ancient line of animals which once had 30 or more successful species, and has gone extinct down to just one single representative, and that representative has conquered the entire world (us). We have horrors that look just like rocks and if you step on them your whole world becomes agonizing pain. (toadfish) We have animals who hide inside other animals, and when you eat that animal, they enter your intestines and live there. (tapeworms) We have plants which live on other plants and never touch the ground. There's a fruit tree that grows around another tree, and eventually kills and replaces it. (strangler fig) We have gliding lizards, marsupials, snakes, frogs, and rodents. What the heck do you need fairies for?

@noobbricks I can't even watch this ish

The strength to get up there and take what had just happened to and taken from him with the grace that he did cemented him as the Greatest Ever more than anything he could've done in the car that night. Untouchable, inimitable, transcendent. Lewis Hamilton 🐐

@smclaughlin93 @ODYSSEY_Battery @Team_Penske @TeamChevy @IndyCar @BarberMotorPark Good seeing you this weekend, Scott. Hope you enjoyed Alabama despite the race result, and glad you're okay after that incident in T1. Hearing you want to immediately get back in the car was pretty cool. 1/2👍🏼's

P16 yesterday. Need to be more solid, car was good all weekend but our crash put us behind the 8 ball.. early days but working harder than ever to get us back to where we belong! Looking forward to a couple weeks with my girls. Thanks for the support 👊 #Thirsty3s #INDYCAR

@TheRealGuyG @ZBrownCEO @lundgaardoff @PatricioOWard Idk how much time Lundgaard lost in the pits (I was at the race) but I'd be willing to bet it wasn't 13+ seconds. Not to mention Palou had loads of P2P in hand the entire race AND was lifting 100m earlier than everyone on the back straight at points- guy was cruising

@ZBrownCEO @lundgaardoff @PatricioOWard Get the pit stop sorted next time. He lost out on potentially winning the race. We need you guys to take down Palou

Back on the podium in Barber with a P2 and a hard-fought race from @lundgaardoff. Four races into the season, Christian in 3rd and @patriciooward in 6th have solid positioning in the series. Next up for Indycar, one of my favorite circuits—Streets of Long Beach. I’ll be cruising around in my Audi Trans-Am in the historic race. See you there 👍

@Hickey93 Idk how much time Lundgaard lost in the pits (I was at the race) but I'd be willing to bet it wasn't 13+ seconds. Not to mention Palou had loads of P2P in hand the entire race AND was lifting 100m earlier than everyone on the back straight.

We saw the embrace between 𝗖𝗛𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗔𝗡 𝗟𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗚𝗔𝗔𝗥𝗗 and 𝗧𝗢𝗡𝗬 𝗞𝗔𝗡𝗔𝗔𝗡 after the race. Here’s what TK commented on CL’s Insta post #INDYCAR

I didn't know lapped cars were allowed to overtake the Safety Car?? 🤔 @F1 @fia @MercedesAMGF1 #Suzuka

@paddock_inside The tire barrier and fence literally did their jobs...

Le châssis a quatorze (14) ans, les audiences en berne, et les circuits proposent une sécurité d'un autre siècle, tout va pour le mieux dans ce championnat ! 🥳

Wow🤣

@harukaawake As a Southern American, I must visit Japan

🇯🇵🇺🇸 Yes, there is a whole subculture in our country dedicated to the Southern United States (especially Texas). I'm glad people people abroad can appreciate it too!

@AlexPalou What do you love most about Barber??

POOOOLE!!! 🚀 Absolutely love this place. Soooo fun!

@TPourchaire We miss you!

INDYCAR at Barber is beautiful, I have good memories from there 😍😁 #indycar

@Hickey93 @evanr2249 & also why we shouldn't have them

@evanr2249 To be fair they don’t really bring it up in the broadcast, nor is it the make-or-break factor in pace

Buxton just now: “(Scott McLaughlin) in the Odyssey Battery Chevrolet, the only time this weekend you’ll hear batteries referred to in terms of racing.” 😮‍💨 #INDYCAR

@hotcake_kun_ ❤️

@smclaughlin93 @ODYSSEY_Battery @Team_Penske @TeamChevy @IndyCar @BarberMotorPark What is it about @BarberMotorPark you enjoy so much @smclaughlin93 ?

P1 in Practice 1. LOVE THIS PLACE. The Battery Wagon is hooked up. Early days in the weekend, but mega first session. 😁 #INDYCAR #Thirsty3s

@tonydindy @SchumacherMick @BarberMotorPark Are you going?

I’m watching @SchumacherMick this weekend @BarberMotorPark. A very European feel type track (just like IMS road course). Think we really see the raw speed he has, look for a good weekend from the 47 team.

@SoyMotor I agree, but what did a V10 have to do with their production cars? 🤣

❌BMW reitera su 'no' a la Fórmula 1 🗣️"La F1 es interesante desde el punto de vista de marketing, pero desde el punto de vista tecnológico, el sistema híbrido actual está muy alejado de la tecnología que se usa en nuestros coches de calle. Intentamos concentrarnos en las disciplinas que más se acercan a nuestros coches de serie" #F1

@rafaismo Holy heater Batman

These brehs talk about artificial racing but then glaze the most artificial moment in F1 history
