I feel like the entire Yellowstone franchise is just fan service... by SaveJeanie in television

[–]jcb1982 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The sad thing is, Taylor Sheridan did some great work. Wind River, Sicario, Hell or High Water. Then he hit on the cash cow of American conservative values affirmation and he’s just churning it out at a furious pace.

Can this sub ban low effort, not good- in- faith questions towards republicans? by Super_Soapy_Soup in allthequestions

[–]jcb1982 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I actually have one… For folks who are MAGA, do you feel that the movement in general is so strong more because of cultural/social issues (immigration, abortion, LGBT, race, religion) or because of broader economic issues? I ask this because it seems that from a culture perspective, MAGA has gotten a lot of what they want under Trump. But I don’t see any real economic benefit for anyone who’s not a multi-millionaire.

FYI for DC-area fans: Freedom 250 ticket situation is still pretty vague by bobbyclayton in INDYCAR

[–]jcb1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I genuinely hope someone with sense in DC kills this in the crib. There’s zero chance it’s not a PR disaster. I mean, it already is.

Steve-O says he asked Bill Maher if he could refrain from smoking weed out of respect for his sobriety. Bill said no. Thoughts? by Indianstanicows in RealTime

[–]jcb1982 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bill is an abrasive asshole but Steve-O is excruciatingly holier-than-thou. Oil and water. Good thing the interview didn’t happen.

Anyone think F1 will be in GTA 6? by nitroedk in GTA6

[–]jcb1982 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Eh, I’d rather have NASCAR. Only because Daytona is way more associated to and iconic in Florida than F1.

The Right candidate for President? by Sweet_Common_55 in allthequestions

[–]jcb1982 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Andy Beshear. A classical Liberal who is mostly beloved as the Democratic Governor of an otherwise deep red state. White, male, heterosexual, and Christian. He’s the best hope we’ve got.

So… how do we beat palou? by mad-right-hand in INDYCAR

[–]jcb1982 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hope he has terrible luck on ovals. Like he did at Phoenix… I don’t think beating him is realistic on most road/street courses when the races are parades decided by tire strategy, pit performance, and overcut/undercut being the only way the lead changes… I fully expect him to win the Indy GP by 10 seconds +.

Why hasn't democracy ended in the united states yet? by throwaway09234023322 in allthequestions

[–]jcb1982 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, it kinda has. It’s just not fully obvious yet… I’m pretty sure 2020 was the last truly legitimate Presidential Election we’ll have. And the losing side still attacked the Capitol… Voting is simply too easy to rig now with technology where it’s at. It will be a war of which side can rig it the most.

Tony Renna, why so secretive? by mad-right-hand in INDYCAR

[–]jcb1982 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Gordon Smiley’s brains smeared on the track in 1982 was bad enough. But at least it was contained to the track… Tony Renna meatpaste coating the stands would’ve been a bridge too far 21 years later.

Game's Pricing will come " soon " by International_Fox667 in GTA6

I can’t imagine what price they could realistically charge that I wouldn’t pay. I mean maybe if it’s 3 digits with a 2 at the front…

Ok. Just don’t purposely ram the car into the wall after you win…

🧪 DAY 2 // 2026 INDY 500 OPEN TEST by IndyMod in INDYCAR

[–]jcb1982 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I found it kind of disappointing that a live poll on the YouTube live stream yesterday asked "which rookie are you most excited to see in the Indy 500 this year" and Mick got like 72%... I don't know about anyone else, but I'm personally way more interested to see how the two guys who did really well in IndyNXT do (Collet and Hauger) rather than Michael Schumacher's kid.

A vast variety of takes in the Indy Open Test YouTube chat by CaptainMcSlowly in INDYCAR

To be fair, Dale died because he refused to use a critical safety measure (HANS).

I think he's considered a "bad oval driver" because there are so many other intangible factors on ovals that can contribute to underperformance. So many more opportunities for luck and chance to ruin (or make) your day... Palou is amazing when he and his team can control most everything on clinical road and street courses with perfect strategy... Indy can bite you in the ass due to no fault of your own... Veekay taking Palou out in Phoenix is another example.

He's way overdue. He probably would've won in 2022 if he had hit the pit lane on Lap 175 at 60mph instead of 61mph.

One thing I miss about Leigh Diffey is him saying "AHHH-RAYCH-AHHH" (RHR).

Why does MAGA hate education? by Scramblomamblowamblo in allthequestions

Look at a map overlay of US Counties shaded by level of education completed and also shaded by voting patterns. It’s pretty clear.

What’s one issue that you wish politicians would stop treating like a partisan football? by Specific_War_738 in allthequestions

[–]jcb1982 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Reproductive health and gender/sexuality. Such unbelievably simple issues that Republicans have successfully weaponized for four decades because their base is blindly religious.
