Flo-Jo For the Win! ⚡

Born in 1959, Florence Griffith Joyner's remarkable talent became evident early in her life. Known also as Flo Jo, she began her athletics career in high school, and her natural speed and determination led her to compete in the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, where she won a silver medal in the 200 meters.

However, it was the 1988 Seoul Olympics where Florence truly made history. She set world records in both the 100 meters (10.49 seconds) and the 200 meters (21.34 seconds) that have yet to be broken. Her iconic style, featuring one-legged bodysuits and colorful, long fingernails, made her a fashion icon as well as a sports legend.

Florence Griffith Joyner's story is a testament to the power of determination, hard work, and self-expression. Her incredible achievements on the track and her unique personal style have left an enduring impact on the world of sports.

Since my early fandom years were mostly offline, i got to experience MOST 00's fandom interweb meme songs in their natural state; on the mp3 player my friend let me borrow like we had split custody.

fyi how long it takes me to post a m*a*s*h update makes it SEEM like i have a lot of self-control and am only watching one episode a day but that is incorrect. i'm watching everything like three times and rolling around in the details like a ferret let loose in the snow. i grew up in the vhs-recording 90s where you'd get two star treks and an x-file every week, and i'd get up at five in the morning to rewatch one of them before school every day AND tune in for every rerun and that has not changed. sometimes i get comments on fic like "wow your dialogue sounds just like them" YEAH it fuckin SHOULD some weeks i hear these people talk more than my own family. this is completely normal and healthy by the way

#not even touching on the fact that my sister and i would have star trek marathons like we were training for the olympics #on weekends she was over here we'd fuckin PLAN we would rest up all week so we could STAY UP and try to beat the record #my dad would come downstairs and make us run around outside in the snow between episodes #and we'd do it in BARE FEET to hype us up and keep us awake for the duration #also normal behavior #i remember being entire adults and going on a double date with some new dudes and both of us being like #:) we watched 30 hours of star trek in a row once :) #that's the most impressive thing you should know about us

So.

I finally watched Yuri!!! On Ice.

#arom antix art #my art #art #artists on tumblr #yuri on ice #yuri katsuki #yuri on ice fanart #yoi #yoi fanart #and now every thought i have is about the show #i dont want to stop but i really have to do literally anything else #but i cannot not think about it #so i guess life will have to wait for my brain to stop hyperfixating #help im watching every olympic figure skating recording #you know i had to draw the ring tho #like come on #how can i not #and yes im very aware that the lights are not dimmed for the short program #i just like how it looks #its also a much simpler composition #and i wont say no to not having to draw a properly visible background #no alt text

Gertrude Ederle, first woman to swim the Channel, 1926, (1935).

Gertrude Caroline Ederle (1905-2003) was an American competition swimmer, Olympic champion, and world record-holder in five events. On August 6, 1926, she became the first woman to swim across the English Channel. Among other nicknames, the press sometimes called her "Queen of the Waves".

"To me, the sea is like a person, like a child that I've known a long time. It sounds crazy, I know, but when I swim in the sea I talk to it. I never feel alone when I'm out there." - Gertrude Ederle

on a fundamental level people have totally lost the plot as far as the concept of nepo babies goes. like... having rich [otherwise-anonymous] parents who could fund the early days of the starving artist pre-discovery phase of your career, or even pay to kickstart your career entirely, isnt a nepo baby! i saw something on twitter about sports nepo babies and half of them were like "this athlete's parents were middlingly successful in the same sport when they were teenagers/in college and then they went on to become coaches of this sport!" thats not a nepo baby either thats just doing the same shit ur parents do/did which everyone has done for centuries lmao !!!!

#like if michael phelps gets his son put on the olympic team in 2036 or whatever and hes like 50th ranked in the country then ok #or even if he earns his spot on the team but when he was like 10 he was instantly accepted by an elite coach with a waiting list of 200 kid #otherwise no thats not what that is lollll #having rich non-famous parents who lowkey buy ur first recording contract? not really a nepo baby! #kendall jenners high fashion modeling career? nepo baby and she was/is bad at her job! #carrie fisher's acting career? nepo baby and she WAS good at her job!
