The year is 2067, You are on your first day driving for Team Dominator.

You rapidly approach a 250mph EF5 wedge with Dominator 34 getting ready to intercept.

You begin to doubt your prior training and look over to ask Reed Timmer for his guidance.

Reed Timmer (now 87 years old) unbluckes his seatbelt, looks to you, and says, "You know what to do, never stop chasing."

Reed then jumps out of the car into the outer circulation of the tornado and is immediately lofted 40kft, never to be seen again.

Tears form in your eyes as you then perform a perfect intercept in Reed's honor. You have succeeded.

@cecsquared This is a scary yet amazing shot, glad you’re okay!

My thoughts are with the residents of the north/central High Plains as aggressive tectonic shifting aids in severe t-storm development by ejecting them and their landmass over the northern plains.

@SturmovikStag @JadeAtrophis Not necessarily. Antidepressants are meerly a bandage that should be used while treating the root cause. Being prescribed first isn’t always the problem, it’s that they’re treated like a permanent solution.

@JohnJSSoriano I almost always think of the de Gaulle family whenever the debate around down syndrome comes up. Whether you agree politically with Charles de Gaulle or not, their bond is inspiring. His choice was rare during his time. Not much different than ours unfortunately.

It’s always “you’re autistic” and never “thank you for telling me that there’s a tornado in progress in Oklahoma”

Irish Americans are great, actually.

Hurricane Melissa is now a catastrophic Category 5 storm bearing down on Jamaica. This kind of force is rare for the island. 160 mph winds, torrential rain, and dangerous flooding are expected. Please pray for the people of Jamaica. Lord, have mercy.

Time to bring this back out I guess
