What team do you think Daniel would join if he did NASCAR or Indy? Not familiar and not saying he will but just curious
I unfortunately am as unfamiliar as you about nascar and Indy. I think if Daniel is ever interested in either, he will try a one-off entry before actually committing himself to a full-time campaign, especially given how nascar has the new open exemption provisional rule that allows a world-class driver to compete in a race and in Indy as well, drivers have the flexibility to choose whether they want to do ovals or not.
I think Daniel would only consider doing Indy if he really wants to try and win the indy500 but since it’s an oval and he’s said many times before ovals scare him, so I feel it’s unlikely. When it comes to choosing a team in Indycar, I think he would have a lot of choice given from what I understand there’s no hard limits on the number of cars an Indycar team can run. It’s very possible he could choose a team like Andretti or Arrow McLaren because they have a formula one presence (and he already has a pre-existing relationship with McLaren) and that would tie in perfectly with him also being a global ambassador for the brand and maybe even hold a sort of advisor role with the team like Jenson does with Williams.
If he decides to try NASCAR, I think it would be with a team associated with Ford because I think he still has a relationship with Ford to this day. However, I think it would be more likely that he chooses Indycar over NASCAR but I also don’t discount him wanting to try it 2 or 3 years into retirement when he’s so bored out of his mind he doesn’t care if he would be good or bad at it.

in light of the us election...I'm trying to get a job in scotland (or anywhere in the uk/ireland) and hope to stay there for a couple years at least (if you catch my drift) and if anyone has advice on getting a job in the book publishing industry, or if anyone has experience in that field over there, please let me know. I'm getting my postgraduate degree in Creative Writing and English in the spring and was looking at HarperCollins Glascow, though I would accept any book publishing company (big or small) at this point 🙏🙏🙏

corny 2000s romcom college au. alex is a music production student who gets a couple extra credit hours by running sound and making dance tracks for the cheer squad. and so he shows up to cheer camp for the summer and hears everyone whispering about his Hot New Cheerleader called miles kane who transferred from The Other College or whatever. and alex is mesmerized when miles does like 9 flips into the splits. and he's not paying attention to where he's walking. so he bumps into the water station and sends all the cups and coolers flying. and he trips and bumps his head on something, knocking him out cold. and when he opens his eyes, miles is hovering over him, doing the whole "how many fingers am i holding up?" thing. and alex in a daze says "your fingers are very... pretty." and after that it's just a bunch of blushy awkward misunderstandings and interactions as they fall in love during cheer camp. okay great. now go write it. thanks!

“Europe stares into the abyss.
Plague and famine stalk the land, monsters lurk in every shadow and greedy princes care for nothing but their own ambitions. Only one thing is certain: the elves will come again, and they will eat everyone.
Sometimes, the darkest paths lead towards the light. Paths on which the righteous will not dare to tread…
And so, buried beneath the sacred splendour of the Celestial Palace, is the secret Chapel of the Holy Expediency. For its congregation of convicted monsters there are no sins that have not been committed, no lines that will not be crossed, and no mission that cannot be turned into a disastrous bloodbath.
Now the hapless Brother Diaz must somehow bind the worst of the worst to a higher cause: to put a thief on the throne of Troy, and unite the sundered church against the coming apocalypse.
When you’re headed through hell, you need the devils on your side.“

i do not get this culture of flying comparably short distances. yes it might be more convenient or whatever but you're ruining the environment and a much more fun and sustainable option is staring you right in the face

You can just about see me in the Glasgow Slog! My friend always brings her Italian flag with her so this time I was easy to spot as I was right next to her! The third pic wasn't from the slog, but Ryan sent it to me a few days after the concert!💜

Many of you, guys, perceive Lithuania the same way English colonizers perceived Indian women in sari. Shall I tell you this story?
