what book I would give each current formula one driver to introduce them to the joy of reading
an intellectual exercise no one* asked for
Max Verstappen: Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond - if you are nd and have read this book, you may understand me. otherwise just trust me. the impetus for this post
Checo Perez: The Trumpet of the Swan by E.B. White - this is an excellent read-aloud book for Sergio Jr.'s age, and there is nothing as wonderful as reading a compelling book to a kid you love, imho
Charles Leclerc: The Golden Compass by Phillip Pullman - he is on the record as a Potter enjoyer. also, I think he would enjoy having a little animal friend
Carlos Sainz: Priestdaddy by Patricia Lockwood - okay yes this is partially a joke about the title, but this is a hilarious and wonderful memoir, about weird families and Catholicism, and I think Carlos would enjoy it.
Lando Norris: Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett - in my mind Lando is a little bit like @bright-and-burning but less cool, so this fits. also, the combination of high number of jokes/page + action/mystery seems like a good fit
Oscar Piastri: Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie - this book has the kind of mystery that really draws you in, plus I think Oscar would dig the questions about AI it digs into. I choose to believe with zero evidence that he would be interested in the funky gender stuff
Fernando Alonso: Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell - look me in the eye and tell me this book wasn't written for Fernando Alonso
Lance Stroll: Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card - yeah
Lewis Hamilton: Die Trying by Lee Child - Lewis deserves to read mildly trashy thrillers <3 plus there's a Tom Cruise movie
George Russell: Changing My Mind by Zadie Smith - as a proud Brit, George should be reading one of the premiere English authors of the 21st century. her first book of essays is a fun and readable place to start
Yuki Tsunoda: Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel - I don't have a Yuki-lore explanation, I just want to give him one of my favorite books
Daniel Ricciardo: The Gunslinger by Steven King - The Dark Tower series is Lord of the Rings-esque in scope but Western-inflected in aesthetic and written by The Horror Guy, I think DR would enjoy
Alex Albon: The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee - I say this with so much love in my heart, but Alex wants to be seen as smart. this book is brilliantly written pop science
Logan Sargeant: Bloomability by Sharon Creech - yes this is a book for tween girls, but it's about boarding school in Switzerland, and Sharon Creech is a genius. if I could convince him to read it, I think he would love it
Valtteri Bottas: The Fellowship of the Ring by JRR Tolkien - what are hobbits if not humanoid moomins?
Zhou Guanyu: Piranesi by Susannah Clarke - a fun, exciting, stylishly written book for a stylish guy
Kevin Magnussen: Watership Down by Richard Adams - rabbit warfare <3
Nico Hulkenberg: A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles - Hulk SEEMS like a Dad Who Reads Historical Fiction, even if he isn't yet
Pierre Gasly: Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo - I almost said A Game of Thrones but I don't think that would be good for him. so, Six of Crows. he likes heists!
Esteban Ocon: City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty - a superhero origin story of sorts for Mr. Spiderman
Bonus: Liam Lawson: Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir - lesbian from New Zealand. let me have this
*ro asked for it, take it up with them @oscarpiastriwdc

Hi, dear! How was your day so far? Is it possible to write a reactions where the reader prepared a beautifully romantic dinner that looked stunning. However, despite the aesthetic appeal, the taste of the food turned out to be rather disappointing. Like really disgusting. The reader can't cook.<3 <3<3
you're a terrible cook,⠀⠀౨ৎ⠀⠀keanuverse. gn reader.⠀/⠀cw. sarcasm, fluff!
Tumblr media
would take it like a champ, and lie with a smile. ⠀⠀⠀ted logan. neo. johnny utah. jonathan harker.
these boys are too sweet or think you're too sweet to tell you the truth. coming home and seeing a beautiful dinner laid out, with little rose petals on the table. the dreamy atmosphere of valentine's just makes him so bashful and excited. so when your abysmally salty food hits his tongue, he freezes for a second. he does a little slow chew, a weak smile on their lips and he gives a thumbs up.
seeing your proud grin on your face only makes him feel bad :(( it's the thought that counts! so what if the meat tastes like rubber and the potatoes are charred? he's gonna swallow it like a champ!
supportive! gives advice! ⠀⠀⠀john wick. jack traven.
these guys have a bit more of a spine, and wanna give their s/o advice! he's sure to thank you endlessly for the set up and the attempt at cooking dinner, and he's gently holding your hand throughout the dinner.
"hey.. um.. honey," he clear his throat. "maybe next time we can cook together, hm? and.. possibly not use a kilo of salt for the soup?" he jokes softly.
brutally honest or playfully mean about it. ⠀⠀⠀john constantine. kevin lomax. don john.
oh my word these ones .. sigh .. they're too sarcastic or brutal about their opinions. of course they're not straight up bullying you, but you would probably hear a stupid joke or comment.
"jesus christ," he snorts, covering his lips with a napkin. you roll your eyes at his overreaction, snatching the plate back. "oh baby, c'mon! i'm kidding!"
Tumblr media
send me your thirsts & thots!

TEAM DAMIRAE OR TEAM KONRAE?
Superman & Batman
Bruce Wayne: You're really asking us that question?
Clark Kent: I think it’d be nice to have Raven as a daughter in-law. 
Bruce Wayne: You can't have her, Kent. She’s too cool. And she fits our aesthetic better.
Clark Kent: You’re Batman: you literally adopt everybody. You tried to adopt Barry once. And you already have Kory, you can't take Raven, too!
Bruce Wayne: She’s already hitting it off with our villains.
Clark Kent: Raven and Luthor could get along; they both meditate and share a genuine disgust towards people.
Bruce Wayne: I can already hear the future screams ringing out from that scenario. 
Nightwing & Starfire
Dick Grayson: Yeah, Damian’s just a more decent human being around Rachel, so...you know. 
Koriand'r: You know, if I married you, and Raven married Damian, we could both have a double wedding AND we’d be sister in-laws. *gasps* We could take one of those family photos on the beach together, where we’re all in the white shirts and denim and we’re jumping! Wouldn't that be so amazing? 
Raven & Superboy
Rachel Roth: Um…
Conner Kent: You're really being put on the spot here.
Rachel Roth: I am. 
Conner Kent: I can make a suggestion, if you like, milady.
Rachel Roth: Thanks...milord. *shakes head and bites back a smile*
Poison Ivy & Zatanna
Poison Ivy: Ugh, it's such a hard decision! Raven and Robin have so much in common—and if Raven started dating him, she could stay in Gotham more. But Superboy has a much sweeter personality.
Zatanna Zatara: I know! And they’re both so good-looking.
Poison Ivy: Oh yeah, they’re heart throbs.
Zatanna Zatara: If I were a teenage girl, I would probably be obsessed with them.
Poison Ivy: Creepy, but relatable. Who would you choose, then?
Zatanna Zatara: Oh boy. Um...I think I would go with Damian. He’s so dark and mysterious. And Raven told me that he lets her cut bagels with his samurai swords.
Poison Ivy: He's a keeper.
Zatanna Zatara: Yep. Plus Conner’s advanced hearing would make me feel so uncomfortable. What if he hears me crunching on potato chips a room over or something? 
Poison Ivy: I don't think I could date someone who could hear everything. 
Harley Quinn & John Constantine
John Constantine: Superboy. He'll be easier to kill if he breaks my kid’s heart.
Harley Quinn: Aww. Dad goals. 
John Constantine: And he’s nice and all...also it would really piss off Clarky to have a closer relationship with me. 
Harley Quinn: So, basically, Team Superboy for revenge and spite. I LOVE it! 
Cyborg & Shazam
Billy Batson: Team Jacob :D
Victor Stone: Dude. No. 
Beast Boy & Blue Beetle
Garfield Logan: You know, I actually used to have a HUGE crush on Raven.
Jaime Reyes: Seriously? Wow, it's hard to imagine the two of you together. Is this the hidden ship? It would be super weird if, after all of this, she ended up with you.
Garfield Logan: HAHAHAHAHAHA......yeah.

Holding space: The Archive and Blues Tradition at the University of Chicago
Tumblr media
Performance spaces like the Checkerboard Lounge, Theresa’s, Buddy Guy’s Legends, Club DeLisa, Pepper’s Lounge, Gerri’s Palm Tavern, and the Parkway Lounge have, historically, made the City of Chicago synonymous with the Blues. They were critical neighborhood institutions that also helped to forge local community ties and pathways for global connections. However, extant narratives of the history of Chicago Blues are absent of the part that The University of Chicago has played in that formation. So much so, in 2003, journalist Celeste Garrett wrote that the University was “known more for generating Nobel Prize winners than for being a source of the Blues.” This is true. At present, in fact, there are 97 Nobel Prize winners who are or have been associated with the University. However, what is little known about the institution, as the archive reveals, is that The University of Chicago played a small, but crucial, role in fashioning a space and place for the presence and preservation of Chicago Blues history and culture.
Perchance, the University’s manifold attractions and interests and distractions, along with its perceived distance to African American history and lifeworld’s, we tend to disassociate it with such diasporic cultural attractions and productions such as Blues. Contrary to popular belief, the University, equal to the institutions listed above, held space for the blues, its traditions, and celebrated and prepared for its thriving futurity.
In the 1940s, the campus hosted its first blue’s performance. Then, in 1952, the first major concert was produced, with performances by Chick Heston, Preston Jackson, John Henly, William “King” Colax, Ernest Crawford, and Mammy Yancy, headlined by Mahalia Jackson, and sponsored by the “Student Cultural Clubs.” On campus Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters were among the most favored performers and personalities. Howlin’ Wolf first performed at UC in 1960 and at the end of the decade an advertisement in the classifieds of the Daily Maroon read, “Who the hell wants to go to Washington when Howlin’ Wolf is playing right here on campus, tomorrow nite [sic] for only $1.50 (sure beats $25).” And, in 1962, the Salisbury House hosted a dinner for Muddy Waters, engaging him on the blues, his life story, his artistry and aesthetics and philosophy. These events seemed to cement the Blue’s in the cultural landscape of the institution that no one seemed to be aware of in spite of the festivals that grew up there, including the annual Folk Festival organized by the Folk Society, the Blues and Ribs festival that came later, and the Logan Center Bluesfest and the other concerts that were promoted by Enterprise Productions, the Alumni Association, and the Inter Fraternity Council. Though concerts were put on at Mandel Hall, other spaces around campus were (or became) places for the Blues, including Bartlett Gymnasium, Ida Noyes Hall, and, much later, the Logan Center for the Arts.
Tumblr media
The concerts were not exclusively to student or UC associates; the invites were extended to all interested in the music. Many came to the University for those performances to be baptized and delivered in the holy sonic waters of such artists like Chester Burnett, Big Bill Broonzy, Buddy Guy, James Cotton, Elvin Bishop’s Big Fun Trio, Jimmy Johnson, Eddy Clearwater, Corky Siegel, Lil’ Ed, and Melody Angel, Willie Dixon, Elizabeth Cotten, “Mississippi” John Hurt, Roscoe Holcomb, the Stanley Brothers, Paul Butterfield, Louis Killen, Koko Taylor, and Billy Branch, among many others. As with the blues performances scattered about the city, reverberating the blues houses near and far, the clientele that patronized the university concerts, came to lay down the quotidian, the stuff that invented the blues, what Houston Baker surmised as the “world of transience, instability, hard luck, brutalizing work, lost love, minimal security, and enduring human wit and resourcefulness in the face of disaster.”
What’s more, the University of Chicago offered to help preserve the culture of the blues in the city by keeping the Checkerboard Lounge open (that closed in 2003, but reopened in Hyde Park in 2005), while many of the other clubs that helped to place Chicago Blue’s on the map have closed. During the early negotiations of this transition, former UC Vice President for Community and Government Affairs, referring to these historical neighborhood institutions, most notably the Checkerboard, argued for this rescue plan saying, “It’s an important place in history in a city where it’s important to preserve it.” He was right.
The University of Chicago’s influence doesn’t end there: the institution has been acknowledged for its impact on the Nobel Prize winning blues instrumentalist Henry Threadgill, who learned avant-garde classical music attending performances of the Contemporary Chamber Players at the University of Chicago growing up. As well as Elvin Bishop, another Chicago native, of the Elvin Bishop Group, who also attended classes at the University of Chicago, who made the Southside and West Side digs his classroom as well. And there are others, not to mention, Paul Butterfield whose band, as Paul Eisenberg reported earlier this year, The Butterfield Blues Band was formed out of the many activities surrounding the blues festival that was organized at the University of Chicago. The band went on to become a major influence abroad spreading the Chicago-style blues abroad, furthering the legacy of the many blues artists who descended upon the city many years prior.
This dive here is but a brief one; perhaps the start of an archival project to investigate the overall impact that the University has had on the Blues community in Chicago, and, more specifically, the African American community throughout the Southside who favored the institution as their scene for blues performances and have recollections regarding it as a site of memory. Howard Reich noted in 2005 that “. . . Chicago blues are everywhere in this town – if you know how to listen.” It appears that the sonic resonances of the blues are everywhere in the University’s archives. By listening to the archive available at the University, then, where it intersects with the Blue’s scene across the city and, most notably, within the Black community, researchers might find other profound socially based reverberations and hidden histories of the blue’s, reflecting and fomenting other realities and pathways for understanding the past and present conditions of Chicago’s communities.
Literary scholar Steve Tracy reminds us that “. . . the blues provides ‘a structured but expansive place for the individual to relate to and express the community, and for artists to touch home base but still express themselves individually.” We are uniquely positioned to expand with deeper dives into the library’s digitized collections (including the Campus Publications and the Photographic Archives) and University Archives, to discover and institute pathways for transformative community building and public history projects.

Description: Tiktok from user eun404notfound. It's a compilation of many different people responding to the same guy (Film Cooper).
Cooper: I don't wanna be a jerk but I was born with the blood of a hater.
"Don't be so down on yourself. If you were born with the blood of anything... (audio slows down dramatically) of anybody... (speeds back up) it was Marsha P John-"
Cooper: Have you ever noticed how these two people are always best friends?
"Maybe it's just me but I can't notice anything else outside the fact that this guy has an uncanny resemblance to (slowed) Marsha P Johnson."
Cooper: I didn't invent this style and I never claimed to have. I actually credit Marsha P Johnson, a transgender woman of color to be the person I get all my fashion inspiration from. Shes the trailblazer but I'm rocking the look.
(typing noises) "Famous queer people of color..."
Cooper: Daddy is a state of mind you know what I'm saying? And I'm your daddy...
"Does that mean that Marsha P Johnson is a state of m-"
Cooper: Hi! These two people are always best friends!
"Let me take a guess. Is one of them you... and Marsha P John-"
"(doing an impression of him) I didn't invent this style and I never claimed to have. I actually credit Marsha P Johnson-"
Cooper: Madison Beer definitely got work done. Just like the US Constitution.
"Okay I might be alone on this but does this guy give anyone else like serious Marsha P Johnson vibes?"
"New aesthetic: inspired by Marsha P Johnson core." (shows images of a pearl necklace, Hawaiian shirts, a hoodie, a generic blonde white guy, black fingernails, and Timothee Chalamet who comes up when you google "a generic white guy with a middle part")
Cooper: Logan Paul just released his hand written theory on the universe and it's so stupid.
"Baby cakes why are your duets and stitches off? This is not what Marsha P Johnson would have want-"
(YouTube video from Cooper with the title "Colleen's insane ukulele apology is the worst thing I've ever seen) "even Marsha P Johnson thinks this apology was bad... RIP Colleen"
Cooper: Why the fuck- (loops and slows down, a diagram of a mouth and some furry art flash on screen for some reason)

do you have any suggestions for alt fcs for finn?
Personally, I love him as a dopey white guy simply because it means that an exploration of the "idiot white guy learns better" concept is available. His decision making in season one was very, very white hetero male, in my opinion. He didn't like certain things, but he went along with them because they didn't hurt him personally. He was a leader, but not because he really seemed to have earned it but because he was the quarterback, so it was handed to him. When he joined the Glee club, he was forced to be introduced to a minority crowd and eventually learned some good things and became a better person and leader. Aesthetically, he's got to have some muscle but not be super buff or without a little body fat. Someone with a great smile that melts hearts but also a dopey smile that makes people laugh.
This is a list of men of all ethnicities that I could see as Finn, you'll probably want to do a quick Google search for problematic issues before picking for sure because I did not. I just asked Google or comedians under 40:
Devin Druid
Antoine Olivier Pilon
John Boyega
Lucas Hedges
Bowen Yang
Tye Sheridan
Liam James
Hasan Minhaj
Tony Revolori (I looked at a Willow gif hunt and idk for sure if you'll have resources of him smiling, his face is just the right kind of cute)
Charlie Rowe
Nat or Alex Wolff, but more Nat than Alex
Kelvin Harrison Jr.
Connor Jessup
Chad Michael Murray
Manny Jacinto
Marshall Williams played Spencer on Glee, but his look fits
Will Poulter
Cameron Monoghan
Josh Hutcherson
George MacKay
Logan Lerman
Jack Whitehall
Jaboukie Young-White

Drew this a while back and just got around to coloring, here's my prediction/hc for the orange side! We basically know he's going to be anger of some sort already, it just makes sense.
He's a dark side, but he'll be revealed after SVS redux so it may be a different thing where they try to accept him off the bat, but maybe he's prickly about it idk.
The most important aspect of my design is that he is PUNK. I was thinking of anger and how we've seen Thomas present it as a generally nonconfrontational character, and how it could be approached as a facet that has both good and bad to it. Both irl and C!Thomas most often present anger at social issues as righteous anger, for things like queer rights and women's right to their bodies and other politics, as well as the team of writers. As an aesthetic, this is exactly what punk is. Fighting for a cause and using getting angry and not putting up with any shit to get things done, to fight for yourself and others, which is similar to how the other dark sides are defended.
For the orange and anger of course it works that he'd have a fire motif, I like the idea of him "smoking" without a cigarette just like breathing fire when he's upset, catching on fire, letting of steam literally to calm down etc, Hades from the Hercules movie stuff.
For his animal (and I've seen this before, I don't remember who from but I love it) he has a SCORPION. I like him having another arachnid like Virgil, and the dark sides tend to have animal counterparts that are seen as icky and creepy crawly, and dangerous in some way. This is why I don't see him as a lion or tiger or any big powerful mammal like that. I also like that the scorpion stings, like a snake strikes or a spider bites, and has venom just like them. It's also pointy and scary and brandishes a terrifying weapon to warn everyone to back off, not only when threatened like a spider or snake might, but all day everyday.
His pins are things like "eat the rich" and an anarchy symbol (Janus is literally an anarchist but orange is more into the aesthetic) and pride pins. That last bit is important too, where he'll join Remus as a more unreserved, unapologetic himself, where Virgil and Janus keep things closer to the chest.
My favorite but are his glasses, which like his logo are a mix of a flame and the stinger of a scorpion, and it adds something a little less stereotypically punk and more Elton John and flamboyant. Also he NEEDS some sort of glasses, making the glasses to no glasses ratio a more even 3:4 rather than a lonely 2:5. Patton and Logan need another spectacled spectacle in their corner

9 + 10 for the ask game :3c
9. Favorite movie - it's a tie this time! the first Saw is objectively the best in my opinion, it has the best themes, the best writing, perfect tension, perfect characterization, and a perfect ending. however, as weirdly paced and occasionally silly Saw V is, I love it the same amount. it has some of my favorite traps in the franchise both thematically and aesthetically, the water cube scene is iconic, the Fatal Five are such a fun group trial dynamic, the cat-and-mouse pursuit is just fascinating to me, and the ending always breaks my heart horribly, but it works so so so well. also, it has Strahm in a leather jacket. I love men <3
10. Least favorite movie - JIGSAW. good Lord. the trap victims are all bland and/or assholes in a not fun way so there's no one to root for, the timeline makes no goddamn sense, there's none of the fun Saw visual aesthetic in there, the traps are uninteresting and full of plotholes. except the silo trap, because that one is just hilarious to me (to quote myself from when my friend showed me this movie, I fully expected a tractor to fall on them at some point). also, Logan Nelson is a worse apprentice than Hoffman. to quote myself again - John would be rolling in his grave IF LOGAN FUCKING LEFT HIM THERE,,, ahem. anyway. Jigsaw is a worse movie than 3D and Spiral combined and you can't change my mind on that (at least those two are fun to watch in comparison).
