@IMS My brother salvaged parts from a computer mouse and built a homemade wheel and pedals. This game demanded that kind of precision…

Democratic Illinois Governor JB Pritzker speaks about a Democratic "Project 2029" in which members of the current Trump administration, along with federal agents, will be criminally and civilly prosecuted. "Whatever it is that we can do. It may be that you cannot criminally prosecute somebody, but you can go after them civilly." Follow: @AFpost

@wilmotscore I love how you went political when no one asked. What does being liberal or conservative have to do with terrible regs that are making F1 unwatchable. Thats not me that’s F1 drivers and owners talking.

Ferrari have taken their reversible rear wing to a new level, which will now see their cars convert into Transformers mid race and destroy opposition cars (except Aston Martins, which will self destruct). Ferrari believe the system to be within the spirit of FIA regulations.

@TouchlineX That’s easy. The host nations are not playing qualifiers. So there’s nothing to watch or get excited about…

@SamaHoole This explains why their marketing is so woke, it makes them like Teflon for the media saying anything about it.

1866: Cotton seeds are agricultural waste. After extracting cotton fiber, farmers are left with millions of tons of seeds containing oil that's toxic to humans. Gossypol, a natural pesticide in cotton, makes the oil inedible. The seeds are fed to cattle in small amounts or simply discarded. 1900: Procter & Gamble is making candles and soap. They need cheap fats. Animal fats work but they're expensive. Cotton seed oil is abundant and nearly worthless. If they could somehow make it edible, they'd have unlimited cheap raw material. The process they develop is brutal. Extract the oil using chemical solvents. Heat to extreme temperatures to neutralise gossypol. Hydrogenate with pressurised hydrogen gas to make it solid at room temperature. Deodorise chemically to remove the rancid smell. Bleach to remove the grey color. The result: Crisco. Crystallised cottonseed oil. Industrial textile waste transformed through chemical processing into something white and solid that looks like lard. They patent it in 1907, launch commercially in 1911. Now they have a problem. Nobody wants to eat industrial waste that's been chemically treated. Your grandmother cooks with lard and butter like humans have for thousands of years. Crisco needs to convince her that her traditional fats are deadly and this hydrogenated cotton-seed paste is better. The marketing campaign is genius. They distribute free cookbooks with recipes specifically designed for Crisco. They sponsor cooking demonstrations. They target Jewish communities advertising Crisco as kosher: neither meat nor dairy. They run magazine adverts suggesting that modern, scientific families use Crisco while backwards rural people use lard. But the real coup happens in 1948. The American Heart Association has $1,700 in their budget. They're a tiny organisation. Procter & Gamble donates $1.7 million. Suddenly the AHA has funding, influence, and a major corporate sponsor who manufactures vegetable oil. 1961: The AHA issues their first dietary guidelines. Avoid saturated fat from animals. Replace it with vegetable oils. Recommended oils: Crisco, Wesson, and other seed oils. The conflict is blatant. The organization issuing health advice is funded by the company that profits when people follow that advice. Nobody seems troubled by this. Newspapers report the guidelines as objective science. Doctors repeat them to patients. Government agencies adopt them into policy. Industrial cotton-seed oil, chemically extracted and hydrogenated, becomes "heart-healthy" while butter becomes "artery-clogging poison." 1980s: Researchers discover that trans fats, created by hydrogenation, directly cause heart disease. They raise LDL, lower HDL, promote inflammation, and increase heart attack risk more than any other dietary fat. Crisco, as originally formulated, is catastrophically unhealthy. This takes 70 years to officially acknowledge. Procter & Gamble's response: Quietly reformulate without admission of error. Remove hydrogenation, keep selling seed oils, never acknowledge that their "heart-healthy" product spent seven decades actively causing the disease it claimed to prevent. Modern seed oils remain. Soybean, canola, corn, safflower oils everywhere. Same chemical extraction process. Same high-temperature refining. Same oxidation problems. Just without hydrogenation so trans fats stay below regulatory thresholds. These oils oxidise rapidly when heated. They integrate into cell membranes where they create inflammatory signalling for months or years. They're rich in omega-6 fatty acids that promote inflammation. They've never existed in human diets at current consumption levels. But they're cheap. Profitable. And the food industry has spent a century convincing everyone they're healthy. The alternative, admitting that industrial textile waste shouldn't have been turned into food, would require acknowledging the last 110 years of dietary advice was fundamentally corrupted from the start. Your great-grandmother cooked with lard because that's what humans used for millennia. Then Procter & Gamble needed to sell soap alternatives and accidentally created the largest dietary change in human history. We traded animal fats that built civilisations for factory waste that causes disease. The soap company won. Your health lost.

@jboogiej1974 @NBCOlympics I think the actual ability to compete has as much to do with age as anything. Being 41, I don’t know how competitive she could’ve been without injury. But I really don’t know.

@NBCOlympics Honest question-Cool that she still has the ability to ski, and I’m hoping she does well. Wondering if she can actually contend or would her spot have been better used buy a healthy athlete?

@NBCOlympics Her ACL is not torn. This is a false claim planted by her team to make her sound like some kind of hero because she is aging out.

@SouthwestAir Just booked my first time w the new seating rules…it sucks. If I wanted to fly w a million upgrade fees for seats and luggage, I’d fly Allegiant. As a frequent business traveler and former A-list member, I will flying SWA as little as possible. The LUV is gone.

@NFLMemes I’m a huge 49ers fan, and having the Seahawks there is just not that big a deal. We’re already focused on next season… Even if SEA wins, it’ll never top the ultimate indignity of “Turkey on the 50” with Russ & Richard Sherman…😆

Today, Los Angeles and the Bay Area will see 130 flights in both directions, equivalent to a plane departing every 6.5 minutes for 18 hours a day. You might not like it’s implementation but to say California doesn’t merit high speed rail is just laughable imo.
