Here's a couple more. I was practicing panning, since I'm really bad at it, I figured what better way to practice than shooting cars at a rally? In fairness, this was my 4th rally that I've attended as a volunteer, and the 2nd time I've been to LSPR.

I had the worst luck ever... Both stages I volunteered on got partially cancelled. SS#7 because a spectator got on stage, and SS#15 on day 2 due to delays and belligerent spectators that warranted LEO response.

Other than that, it was great. Couldn't have had better weather for it tbh.

I might give 'er the good ol' college try. I'll probably make about 10 contacts and get bored though. Depends on band conditions.

Gee dangit! I jumped. Almost had a heart attack.

Meh, if Facebook and Meta permaban me, they'd be doing me a favor.

Too many fascist apologists there, and I've been meaning to migrate my photography stuff from Insta to Flickr for awhile now anyway.

I mean, this is what I saw, and one is only a word because of Cyberpunk...

I think that's the goal, to waste our time so we can't use it to better impede their other, more harmful efforts.

It's a big stupid machine, and it doesn't want to be stopped.

The Democrats are tone deaf on these ideals, the conservatives are more than happy to celebrate, cheer on, and encourage political violence against the left and marginalized communities.
