Industrial animal agriculture is a leading cause of deforestation, habitat destruction, and climate emissions. Eliminating it would allow ecosystems to recover and significantly cut greenhouse gases. A global shift to plant-based diets would free up vast tracts of land for rewilding, helping to mitigate the biodiversity crisis. It would also reduce the risk of zoonotic pandemics and improve human health by lowering rates of heart disease and other diet-related illness.
Last night at Kansas, high temperatures created a slick track and wild racing - including a side-by-side finish for the win.
@carlile started 2nd and showed pace early. A pit road speeding penalty put him back in traffic for the end of the first stage, finishing in 7th, but rebounding to 4th for the second stage.
The final run to the finish saw Carlie, Johnson, and Phillips battling each other through lapped traffic on old tires, with Johnson ultimately holding off Carlile by a margin of 0.015 at the checkered flag.

Last night from Texas - Started from pole, won the first two stages, led the most laps, but couldn't hold it together after sustaining suspension damage during the final stage. Still, we came home 5th and extended the points lead in the overall standings.
We're at Kansas tonight for the second race of this doubleheader.

I invite you to explore the captivating sound world of Paula Teles. In this exclusive interview, I spoke with the Fado/Prog-Metal artist about loss, artistic freedom, and the magic of blending Portuguese tradition with modern heaviness. The result is this emotional, honest, and inspiring conversation about her life, her work and her latest album, "Entreparedes".

We believe humanity can and must evolve ethically, widening our circle of compassion and relinquishing the tools of harm. To achieve this, Aponism stands on three core pillars: abolitionist veganism, anti-authoritarianism, and antinatalism. Each pillar addresses a primary domain of suffering (animal, social, and existential) and, taken together, they form a comprehensive ethic of non-harm.
