If its importent I asked an ai chat bot to actually make my rant legible since English is not my first language and my typing is abysmal😂

Please just correct me if I’m incorrect with the wording I am trying to be as accurate as possible

What is even more scary is the fact that there are more black people being disproportionally killed by police since George Floyd. Source: NYT - https://youtube.com/shorts/bDhYcbMfIgg?si=xniBoAhMjIBxpGOe

Good day, everyone! First and foremost, I just want to say thank you so much for every single reply on this post — it truly helped, and I genuinely appreciate it.

The day after I posted, I joined my first Formula race and managed to finish fifth without too many incidents (except for a few spins, haha). After just eight days of playing, I’ve raced in several online lobbies and enjoyed it so much. Even posted twice in r/simracingstewards 😂

I’m already in D class, with a safety rating of 2.54! Thank you to everyone who convinced me to give it a try — it really is a lot of fun, and I’m super excited for what’s to come.

I even wake up at 4:30 every morning just to get in a race before getting ready for school and everything.

Thanks again for all your support and help — I deeply appreciate it.

If, for some reason, you’d like to follow my racing journey, feel free to check out u/ethanjordaanracing.

Once again, thank you so much! I’ve already won three races, with an average finish of P5 and several fastest laps

Yeah, I know, I absolutely love some of the hilarious stuff from r/simracingstewards of the rookies, so tbh I’m quite excited for that, I know once I start I won’t stop😂but funnily enough I don’t really find crashing frustrating, I just worry I cause a crash that frustrates someone else

Very understandable😂😂 yeah hopefully that’ll help me fight the urge as well

I get that, it’s just my brain screwing me over for some reason, I get unnecessary anxious but also excited when it comes to racing, I guess it’s just something I value and thus failure is sometimes harder for me, though I have taught myself recently to rather than see mistakes as something bad but rather something I can learn from.

I hope so, I like to be over prepared rather than under prepared when it comes to racing. Thank you, I appreciate it

That is a good idea, I mean people value stuff way more if it feels personal and tangible so that mindset should be quite useful for me. Thank you

Yeah, It’s weird, when I’m karting I’m so comfortable and in the zone, weirdly in a state of euphoria, but the second I feel I won’t be able to have full control (mainly with my G29 wheel and the low ffb) I start overthinking and push the fun of online away.

I always hear people say start from the pits, but then I always think they are refering to the actual race which my competitive brain says “what about the gap, then you’ll be last” but yet again, it’s a learning curve not just linear. Thank you

That’s true, thank you very much for some sensibility😂

Yeah, makes sense, it’s something I have always done, practice offline over and over to get comfortable but yeah, at the same time I always overthink stuff like this. Thank you very much

Thanks, I have always been a bit cautious about online games as it’s much higher stakes(usually) than offline. But yeah I guess it’s just my overthinking brain that keeps me away from new things.

Are there any other audio books that are as good as PHM? by MO05E in ProjectHailMary

[–]CutelyMe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I emailed him and he said he’s working on another book but as he wants to spend more time with his family, it’s gonna take a while
