─────── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───────
Kevin Magnussen is a great dad.
People can say whatever they want about his driving – aggressive and maybe a little dangerous sometimes – but there is no denying that he is an amazing father who puts his daughters above all else. The Dane is always joking about how his two little troublemakers have been giving him a constant headache, but the rest of the grid knows that he would do just about anything for his girls.
Occasionally, Louise likes bringing Laura and Agnes to the track to see their dad at work. Being a Formula 1 driver with all the hectic schedules and non-stop traveling means that family time together can often be difficult to come by, so Kevin cherishes all the time he gets to be as present in their lives as possible. 
The drivers all love it when the Magnussens visit the track, not only because Laura and Agnes are the sweetest little angels ever, but also because they get to witness the rare sight of Kevin “tough guy” Magnussen shedding his hard exterior and tease him about the heartwarmingly softer side he displays to his family. 
And while you would never admit this out loud, somewhere residing deep within you is envious – envious of this kind of love that you never got to receive. Sometimes when you look at Kevin interacting with his daughters – just sometimes – you find yourself wondering what it would be like to have a father who is present, who genuinely cares, who loves you with everything they have so much that you never have to doubt your worthiness.
・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚.
You were standing with a few other drivers at the track, idly chatting about the upcoming race and your holiday plans now that the winter break is right around the corner when Kevin suddenly saunters nearby, holding the hand of the most adorable little girl. “Laura, come say hi!” he kneels down and says to her, sporting the biggest and most loving smile on his face as his daughter gives a shy little wave to the crowd of drivers before her.
“Hey there, Laura,” you wave at her, settling on a simple greeting since you have never been particularly great with children. “Hello, little one!” Lando greets with a wide grin as he offers Laura a fist bump, and the girl explodes into giggles when he pretends to yelp in pain at how hard Laura fist-bumped him. Classic Lando – always so good with kids.
“She’s got quite the punch, doesn’t she?” Kevin jokes while he chuckles at the sight, admiring the joyous smile on Laura’s face with the tenderest gaze he only reserves for his daughter. Becoming a father is the best thing that has happened to him, and he thanks the stars every day for being blessed with such precious gifts of life. Laura and Agnes – his biggest pride and joy.
“Here to be dad’s little assistant, Laura?” Max asks, his nose scrunching up in an adoring smile like the way it always does when he speaks to Penelope. The little girl nods bashfully before running to hide behind her dad, holding onto his hands as if he is her safe place, her rock.
Kevin laughs at his daughter’s endearing shyness, picks her up and envelops her in his embrace before placing a kiss on her rosy, chubby cheeks. “You’re the best assistant in the entire world,” he whispers softly, adoration swimming in his eyes while Laura lets out a giggle at her father’s words. The drivers around them cannot help but smile along with them – how can they not at such a heartwarming sight? 
Yet watching Kevin’s doting smiles and the way he looks at his daughter as if she is his entire universe, the initial warm fuzziness within you silently morphs into a dull ache that squeezes at your heart – an odd yet familiar feeling you know all too well. Despite your best efforts to push them away, your mind becomes clouded with hazy memories of the past – the painful past that has broken you and haunted you for years.
In the fogged-up memories of your childhood days, you were never at the receiving end of such an affectionate gaze. The only way your father has ever looked at you was indifference, annoyance, and a sense of uncaringness that tore your little heart up into pieces and left you wondering what you did wrong to be so undeserving of the fatherly love you yearned for. 
He never picked you up and hugged you as if you were a fragile treasure that he cherished. He never held your hand in a way that made you feel safe and certain that nothing could ever harm you because he would be your shield, protecting you from the world and its merciless cruelty. He never once made you feel loved and cared for, ignoring your attempts to gain his validation and approval because he loved himself and his ego more than he would ever love you. 
When you received good grades at school and showed him your report card with the rows of A’s, hoping that it would help you get his approval, he didn’t praise you. In fact, he didn’t bother saying anything. He simply gave you a half-hearted nod before shifting his attention back to the damned television screen in front of him, some uninteresting TV show that never should have mattered more than his daughter. So you stuffed the tear-stained report card back into your school bag, uncaring that it got crushed and crumpled, because in the end your hard work and effort didn’t matter. It never did.
When you had a rough day at school and came home with tears running down your cheeks, your father looked at you for a second, rolled his eyes and walked away. So that night you cried yourself to sleep as you soaked through your pillows with your wallowing tears, wishing that your dad could wrap you in his arms and tell you that everything would be okay. You knew that he could hear your sobs across the hallway, but chose to ignore you anyway. You wondered if he hated you that much, or was it simply because he never even cared to begin with?
And when he finally gathered all his belongings and disappeared from your life once and for all, you surprised yourself when you didn’t cry at the sight of the now-empty house. You had just felt empty and lonely – so painstakingly lonely. The kind of loneliness that seeped into your bones and slithered along your veins and consumed your soul. 
As you grew older, you became familiarized with that emptiness – comfortable with it even. You begin to find yourself pushing people away when they get too close, keeping most at arm's length because that seems like the safest option, breaking your own heart before others can do it because you never want to experience the same heartbreak your father has put you through.
Despite how painful it is, you hold onto that loneliness like a lifeline because how could you not when that’s the only thing you know? How could you love when you don’t even know what it feels like?
Even though it had been years since your dad had left, the emptiness he had left behind never seemed to fade away. They say time heals all wounds, but you call that bullshit, because then why does it still hurt like a fresh stab into the heart? 
Too deep in your storm of thoughts, you don’t realize the tears brimming in your glossy eyes and the way your lips quiver ever so slightly. “Hey… you okay there?” Charles, who is standing beside you, gives you an affectionate pat on the shoulders and whispers hushedly in your ear, worried at your sudden change in demeanor. Quickly nodding your head, you answer him with the best smile you can manage, “Yeah, just remembering some things.”
While most of the drivers still have their focus on Kevin and Laura, a few have also noticed your red-rimmed eyes and quietness. “What’s wrong?” Lando mouths the question silently toward you, eyes wide in concern as he tries not to shift everybody’s attention toward you. You shake your head and mouth “nothing” in reply to him as discreetly as possible, not wanting to ruin the group’s mood with your sudden sentiments. 
As much as you want to stay, you simply need to get away for a moment to recollect your thoughts. “Uh – There’s something I need from my driver’s room, so I’m gonna head off,” you hurriedly blink away the tears and put on the best smile – a skill you learned to master after years of being in the public’s eye. You hope that the excuse you just blurted out is somewhat believable, and you quickly disappear into the distance after your fellow drivers bid you goodbye. 
While making a beeline for your driver's room, you cannot help but feel so embarrassed, so guilty for the sudden burst of emotions that erupted in your chest moments ago. “What is wrong with me?” you mumble hushedly to yourself as you make your way to the garage – irritated and beyond annoyed at yourself that the mere sight of Kevin with his daughter is enough to bring you to tears. 
This isn’t something new to you. It isn’t the first time a good father-daughter relationship has made you tear up. Movies, TV shows, song lyrics – you always get so emotional when you allow yourself to get lost in your thoughts, thinking too deeply about the painful reminders of the love that you never have. 
It makes you feel stupid, because how broken do you have to be that trivial things like these are enough to make you cry? And it makes you feel scared, so utterly scared, because what if you were too broken to ever be capable of loving someone this much, too damaged to ever receive love despite yearning for it, and end up pushing away everyone who cares about you for the rest of your life.
When you arrive at your driver's room, you take a seat in the corner, breathing in and out while the self-blaming thoughts inside your head spiral in full force. This is so stupid, you are being stupid, and you hate yourself for being a fool and letting your past trauma affect you like this. Why were you even crying? There is nothing to be crying for. Stop. You need to stop.
Then you hear someone calling your name, voice faint and soft behind the door – Max. “You feeling okay?” he asks, and your delayed response and trembling voice as you answer him, “I’m fine.” are a clear enough indicator that you are far from okay. “Alright, I’m gonna come in now.” A sigh of mixed emotions falls from your lips – annoyance that you never seem to be able to lie to the man, and gratefulness that he always understands what you really need, and right now it is the company of your best friend.
“Hey, kiddo,” he says to you, eyebrows ceasing in sadness when he notices the expression on your face. Max hates seeing you like this, especially knowing the reason behind your tears is your absent father – someone who will never be worthy of having you cry over him. 
You wipe your eyes with the sleeve of your race suit, guilt weighing heavily on your chest as you apologize, “I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to ruin the mood back there. Did the other drivers notice?” Max shakes his head with a frown, refusing to let you blame yourself for something you should never feel guilty for. “You don’t have to be sorry, you did nothing wrong.”
“I don’t even know why I am crying, honestly. Why am I still so angry and sad after all these years? It’s like… am I always going to be like this, broken? Will the hurt ever go away?” you explain truthfully to him while trying to piece your muddle-up thoughts together, yet you struggle to put them into words. How can you begin to explain the years of trauma your dad has left behind? How can you describe the mess of emotions you have for him – the hatred, the resentment, and the fact that you still love and miss him so much even after everything he has done to you?
You don’t need to, because Max understands, he always does. One of the reasons why you two became close quickly is because you share a similar, troubled past – something that is rather unfortunate to bond over, you would argue, but it brings you a great friend nonetheless. Max’s father isn’t exactly absent like yours – Jos Verstappen is still quite prominent in his life, along with his abusive and manipulative ways of raising his kids which he would vehemently deny and claims to be “tough love” instead.
Even though he is there, it doesn’t change the painful truth that the presence of his father has ruined Max. For years, he thought being violent was the way to solve problems because his dad always seemed to be able to solve his with his fist. He used to believe that you had to be perfect to be deserving of good things in life because he grew up with the punishment of “no dinner” if he had performed poorly in a race. He didn’t know if he would ever be capable of loving someone, and then he met Kelly and Penelope.
“You know… when I first met Penelope, I was terrified. I was scared that I could never be a good enough father figure for her, that I was too ruined to show her the love she deserved to have. But then I saw her, and then I realized I love her more than anything,” he confesses as he places himself to sit beside you, a reminiscent smile dancing on his lips while he remembers his first time meeting Penelope, the little girl who has become his family.
He remembers the suffocating fear of ending up like his father when he first held the hands of little Penelope, mind plagued with all the horrible what-ifs. What if he was a terrible dad? What if he couldn’t ever love Penelope? What if he was just like Jos Verstappen and ended up destroying her childhood with his anger and temper the way his dad had with his?
Then Penelope gave him a sweet smile, her tiny hand holding onto his pinky as she looked into his eyes with such trust and comfort, as if she knew that Max would love her more than anything in the world. Max genuinely thought he was going to cry, his heart surging with an overwhelming amount of love and determination to protect the little girl in front of her and give her the home she and Kelly deserve to have, and that’s when he knew that he had nothing to be afraid of – that he was going to do better than his father.
“Listen, kiddo. Time doesn’t heal all wounds, it just makes the pain bearable. But there will be a day when your wound will still be there – it always will be there – but the pain and the hatred will no longer consume you. And you will realize that you can be better and stronger than your past, that you can break the cycle, that you are deserving of such unconditional love too.” You listen quietly to your best friend’s answer, exhaling a relieved sigh at the words you so desperately need to hear, giving you hope that despite all your trauma, one day you will be able to love with such certainty as well.
You are never too broken to love or be loved. You are not damaged goods that need repairing. You are not a monster for being intimidated by love and affection, for pushing people away even though you want more than anything for them to stay. You just need to allow yourself to heal from the hurtful past, to understand that your past trauma does not define you. You need to allow yourself to feel, to accept the depths of your emotions, to understand that your sadness and anger are always valid. You need to believe that you will be better than your father, that you will not follow in his footsteps, and that you deserve to be loved just as much as anyone else. 
Feeling sentimental over this doesn’t make you stupid or a fool, it just makes you human. It is okay to cry over it, to be sad over it, as long as you remember that one day – while things will never be perfect –  it will certainly get better. 
“You’re gonna be okay,” Max tells you with a smile, reaching for your hand to give it a comforting squeeze, and you believe him. For once in a very long time, you genuinely believe that everything is going to be okay. The impact your father has on you will always be there. You can never wipe away the hurt and awful things he has done to you, nor can you simply erase the simultaneous love and hatred you hold for him, but one day you will learn to move on and find closure, and you are going to be okay, just like Max said.
There is a knock on the door, and you can hear your name being called again, this time in the soft and squeaky voice of a little girl. “I’m here,” you answer, and peeking behind the gap in the door is Laura with a cheeky grin on her face. Kevin leads her inside your driver's room with an apologetic smile, “Hey, sorry… Laura says she wants to play with you and insists that I bring her here.” 
You watch as Laura crawls up into the seat next to you and Max, looking at you with the brightest toothy little grin ever, and your lips begin pulling up into a huge smile as well. “Is it okay if she plays here for a while? I’ve got a team meeting in 5 and she never likes coming to those…” Kevin asks apologetically before relief floods his expression when you answer him, “It would be lovely to have a little playdate with Laura.”
“Alrighty, see you later little one,” Kevin leans down to place a kiss on his daughter’s head, reminding her to be a good kid when he is away for the meeting, and you smile at the sight. Not an envious one, or a reminiscent one, but one of contentment because you know that one day you will be able to receive and give such unconditional love to someone too.
Someday, it will be okay. You will be okay.

Oscar Piastri on his remarkable F1 rookie season | F1TV
Laura Winter: The one thing I think all of us watching the Formula 1 this season have noticed in you, and indeed your engineer Tom Stellard also said to me as well, is that you are the defitinion of calm, not relaxed. As soon as he said those words to me, I thought that is exactly how I’d describe Oscar. Is that something that has always been in you? Is that something that you feel has always been that way or do you specfically train and work on that?
Oscar Piastri: It’s uh- a bit of both. I think naturally I’m quite calm and sort of low energy, low frequency. Laura Winter: But you are not laid back or relaxed or lazy and i think there’s the- ‘cause you are still laser focused and there is still a burning ambition. Oscar Pastri: Yeah- Yes, definitely. I think for me that’s always been an important line to draw, is that sometimes calmness can come across as laziness or a lack of caring and it’s definitely not that. You know, there are times were it can dip into that and you have to manage it, but i think for me it’s just how i operate best. My thinking on things is very much that uhm… negative emotions in short bursts are good, but they don’t generally add that much. So trying to deal- you know in terms with solutions is a much better way and being able to think clearly and come up those solutions with a clear state of mind is very important. So that’s something I’ve kind of always had in my personality I think, but, also something that I’ve consciously worked on as well. So uhm… definitely a bit of both. Laura Winter: That is very good advice, I will take that.

stop what you’re doing and go watch THIS  right now!!!!
Tumblr media
anyway here are some great moments listed because i love him a normal amount
top drivers of all time? “obviously jolyon is in the top 3″...
season so far? not ideal. but things in life should never be easy, see brazil victory, it was sweet because of all that hard work etc
<media rant about headlines and clicks etc>
*in his journalist voice* why did you crash into sainz in turn 1? "well it wasn't like i planned to crashed into him"
nude? "that's to come later"
him saying that seeing how much his brazil win meant to the people around him has resonated more with him than crossing the line has (which he didn't expect), and that's why he was so emotional >>>
says lewis is more embarrassed of that photo of the two of them together from 2009 than him
was he expecting himself to be as competitive with lewis as he was when he came to merc? yeah. he went into it with an open mind, but he backed and backs himself.
what would he tell his 11 year old self in that photo from 2009? “cut your hair.” you make mistakes, do things you regret, etc but he wouldn't change a single thing about his career. not being afraid to fail
hardest part of his job? can't complain much, but if laura wasn't there he'd say media :) but yeah, media, he's a racing driver, not an actor, a public speaker. travelling is tough too. "trying to get a good salad around silverstone is not the easiest"
he doesn't mind the sim. he always tries to think about what the next big thing will be, because he wants to be ahead of the curve
monaco is fun to drive, but the racing? boring.
how would he fix silverstone? more grandstands 😇
"which 2 drivers wouldn't you want to go on a road trip with?" "phones away" there's definitely 1-2 he wouldn't want to go with...
“who would you want to go on road trip with?” george: depends what you're after. jolyon: what are you after? 😳👀 george: 🤨 yeah 😐😑
says he would go on a road trip with daniel and pierre if he had to choose 2 drivers from the grid
out of the TPs he'd go on a holiday with günther. spent a 5 hour flight sitting next to him once, chatting away. "has he got a book?!"
hasn't passed his driving test the first time... no minors, but one major. he's convinced the instructor had it against him... says he was in a wrong lane in the roundabout... "a major though, really?"
what's his favourite thing to cook? “i don't cook to be honest.” but he loves burgers and pizzas! he often has a pizza on the saturday night! mental energy, a pizza makes him feel good! :)
“you're gonna have to pick someone who survived a lot of crashes, because if they survived that they can survive anything. like mick schumacher!” george: 😂. 😐 i think we go to the next question.
in his book he'll announce which drivers he wouldn't want to be stranded on an island with. that's what his book will be about.
what would he want to do once he finishes driving? “not be on sky sports.” he takes it back, he likes the sky sports people. (because the cameras are filming him) he has no idea btw what he'll want to do then
doesn't really care who he's gonna be teammates with once lewis retires
he has a 5 minute power nap before the race. laura: you can fall asleep that quickly tho? george: no. ended up saying that he "meditates" then. makes sure he goes to the loo
only visualizes the first corner if he's on the first two rows, too many variables if he starts further back. the moment he qualified p2 in australia, he already knew where he was gonna go into T1. just brake 5 meters later than him, hope it sticks
from the past, he'd obviously race montoya
sainz is the one who chats the most
he'd want to drive mansell's 92 williams
says the V8s sound so much better than what we have now. they make the current cars sound like hoovers
“formula e? i mean yeah.. i don't know about formula e to be honest...” says it’s too wacky. he watches f2 and f3 and tries to watch back the f1 races. puts it on fast forward though. x2.
favourite kind of cheese?
Tumblr media
after a laugh, he proceeds to give the most british answer. adds that doesn't like the smelly cheeses. loved the question tho, unexpected!
george: but good question... laura: yeah we thought it was a good one to end on! :) george: *pauses* really 🧍‍♂️

Okok so! We have some numbers for the Precure 2024 gachapons! Which is important because we can make some speculations about how many Cures there might be in the next season!
We have 9 Bracelet Watch & Cases and 5 Swings.
Looking at the past series releases for these types of gadgets I can say we might get a 3 starter group of Cures with 1 or 2 mascots. Or, less likely, 2 starters with 2 or 3 mascots. “Less likely” because we already had a 2 starter group this year and Toei never repeat the number of starter Cures. Also we all know the 3 starter is a pretty popular formula for Precure and usually their preferred one.
Here are the past 3 series in details, both for swings and bracelet watch & cases, so you can calculate how I did my speculations and for you to use if you want to do some other ones:
Bracelet Watch & Cases
- Tropical Rouge: 10 total - 5 heart shaped cases and 5 watches (4 mc + Laura for each)
- Delicious Party: 9 total - 3 heart shaped cases, 3 round cases and 3 watches (only the 3 mc for each)
- Hirogaru Sky: 9 total - 3 heart shaped cases, 3 round cases and 3 watches (2 mc + Ellee for each)
They are most likely to have both the heart shaped and the round ones next year too, so we might as well only look at DeliPa and HiroPre's numbers.
Swings
- Tropical Rouge: 6 total - 4 mc + Laura + Kururun
- Delicious Party: 6 total - 3 mc + 3 mascots
- Hirogaru Sky: 4 total - 2 mc + 2 Ellee
In any case, swings always have at least 1 mascot in their lineups (Healin Good had the 3 mc + Rate; StarTwi had the 4 mc + Fuwa etc.).

8 shows to get to know me
I was tagged by @haahka​ to deliver the good news of these self-defining TV shows! Wahoo alright let’s go - in alpabetical order so no one feels shafted
1. Bojack Horseman
Tumblr media
The terrible tale of a washed up actor from the nineties trying and failing to regain their mojo - also he’s a depressed horse. Equal parts comedy and devastatingly morose commentary on the human condition. If you finish it and need more please go check out Tuca and Bertie.
2. Chernobyl
Tumblr media
It’s the story of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster! Woohoo everybody party! I’m sure nothing depressing will happen and we’ll all be feeling extremely normal by the end. (Is the best bit of television I’ve ever seen though)
3. House MD
Tumblr media
Hilson shown for...reasons. Anyway I haven’t watched this show in years, I am comstantly battling a demon on my shoulder telling me to change that BUT I say say with great confidence that it’s a foundational text of my media enjoyment. The terrible tale of a drug addled doctor who gets away with eye watering quantities of malpractice due to him being the only guy who can solve medicine’s toughest riddles. Proceedural television never felt so good
4. Red Dwarf
Tumblr media
The terrible tale of the last human in the universe waking up from stasis more than a million years since the rest of the species died off. Dave Lister is stranded on the space ship that was his place of work for the rest of his life, with nothing but a gobby computer, a creature that evolved from his pet cat, a robot and a hologram of his dead bunkmate. Yes, it’s a British comedy from the early nineties. Yes, there are only six episodes a season. Yes, there’s a laugh track. Wait, come back! Where are you going I thought you wanted to watch Red Dwarf!
5. Steven Universe
Tumblr media
The terrible tale of a boy who lives with a piece of his dead mother so visible on his body that most of the galaxy expects him to fulfil her destiny rather than writing his own. The funny thing about Steven Universe is that people are still so mad about it for so many reasons but it remains one of the best TV shows of all time so who’s really winning? Don’t watch unless you can handle kids shows trusting their audience doesn’t need everything spoonfed to them lmao
6. Succession
Tumblr media
The terrible tale of a family who couldn’t lose everything if they tried, and the kids who failed to keep themselves together. If you’re following me and don’t know this show by now then you need to start putting in more hours on tumblr. Also, that’s Tom!
7. Taskmaster
Tumblr media
A despotic control freak and his extremely pathetic and wet assistant force people to compete in a variety of cruel and unusual tasks. Some for the game show to turn your brain off to, stay for the most insane dynamic between two men that you will ever have seen. Then, once you’ve polished off all 15 seasons of the British version, go and enjoy the international Taskmasters. This ride is never going to stop because they’ve discovered the perfect television formula
8. Twin Peaks
Tumblr media
The terrible tale of Laura Palmer, who washes up on the shore of a lake, already dead, and then we get to learn everything about her. TV nerds the world over are ready to gush about this show at a moment’s notice and it’s with good reason. One of the few pieces of anything that really can more or less be all things to all people. Plus, it’s a David Lynch show so it’s weird as hell without apology
tagging @valoricky​ @crustacean-frustrations​ @hickeywiththegoodhair​ @duelsong​ @holy-yeosang​ @tomshivyuri​ @fuckyeahashes​ @bby-daesung​ and anyone else who feels like sharing. You can do it or not. It’s fun to talk about things you like though!

I took time to watch the second and third seasons of “Narrative Telephone”.
I previously described this wonderful show as "pure serotonin injected in your veins" and guess what. IT STILL IS ! It's just so good, y'all.
(Under the cut is a summary of my reaction for each episode)
Round 2, Episode 1 and 2 featured BWF and they have been removed from the channel. If ever you want to, know that you can still find them via the Wayback Machine. I have watched them this way, because I'm nothing if not curious ; but I will not say anything on them. damnatio memoriae
Round 2, Episode 3 : aka Laura Bailey remembered she finished last season by blacking out completely, and came back with a vengeance... RHYMES ! Not but the story was lovely at first, but the combo of Taliesin's panick attack and Ashley's.. 'Ashley-ing' this story was fatal to it (bonus point for "Not for you Nott/Don't be jelly !"). Travis brought it back like a champion. We love to see Mica Burton's chimney covered with Emmy awards, also her voice get progressively higher and higher, it's so funny. Sam just re-wrote the rhymes and the story. Marisha did her best. Liam tried to re-write the rhymes, and made Matt's job easier, but... the moral of the story was already lost. Love that Sam said that the Emmys from Mica's videos distracted him so much that he forgot half of what she was saying, and then everyone agrees that's the worst turn Sam ever did ALL BECAUSE OF THOSE EMMYS (on point). "Mica totaled the car, drove it to the auto body shop, Sam said 'I'll take care of this', poured gasoline and set it off on fire, and Marisha was like 'Yeah ! This drives !'" (Travis). As always, I immensely enjoy when they're complimenting each other : this time, it was Matt, whom Laura said he was "date night Matthew Mercer". "You know what ? This is what the holiday is all about ! It starts wholesome and pure and perfect, and by the end, it's 9 drunk people making a big mess and blaming each other !" (Sam).
Round 2, Episode 4 : aka Mica Burton speaks Elvish, and no one else does, and also, remember that sitcom, Alf ? Travis was good as always, Liam kept the story but added the killer detail about ALF. And that derailed Taliesin and everybody after that. Taliesin' "Elvish" sounded less like Nordic language and more like absolute nonsense. Marisha just speculated wildly about Anathanel's profession and physicality (is she a centaur ??? who knows !!), and Matt doubles down on that, and also the "Elvish" continues to be -somehow- worse. Sam doesn't know what ALF is, because of course he doesn't, so it gets wayyyy worse than the constant references of ALF. Ashley : "Once upon a time, there was a princess, and her name was... Enfamil... (to herself) no, that's not it, that's baby formula." Laura closes with questionning if there's a moral to this story : spoiler alert, there isn't, because there isn't much of a story anymore. Tears, tears of laughter. I was not expecting ALF, and the half-princess, half-centaur, maybe a mermaid (?) but extremely super-sad heroïne of this story. Also Travis deserves the shit he got for not putting on the flowers and make-up.
Round 2, Episode 5 : aka Liam doesn't tell a story. They all did pretty well ! Considering, again, that there wasn't a story ! The duck names were changing, but were all very cute. The fact that Laura didn't realise that it was NOT Dani's story and kept thinking she was doing some experimental storytelling was so fucking funny. Also love every time they're demonstrating their various abilities or inabilities to do certain voices.
Round 2, Episode 6 : aka IT'S FRUMPKIN, BITCH (*Won't Get Fooled Again by The Who plays in the distance*). Taliesin added wayyyyyy to many letters in the acronyms. Sam returns with adding a moral and an ending to a story that didn't needed them. I feel like this is the most they threw ones and anothers under the bus, thanks to the Pacific thing. Love that the Show & Tell started by them revealing what their middle names were, and discovering that Sam's full name is Samuel Brent Oscar Riegel, as if they didn't work together and were friends since 2010 or before. Ashley, being real : "That must be nice, having sometimes the feeling that you've nailed it !". I loved that they were almost always silent during the re-watching of Dani's story. Respect. It was a good story.
Round 2, Episode 7 : aka Chutney, my beloved, still wants to kill Santa. The story hooks are progressively lost (because of Liam, let's be honest), but the genius plan of killing Santa via fire is not, so that's a progress, I guess. Aabria goes all in, like the queen she is, and makes Chuntney somehow even more creepy ?? "I want this to be you Campaign 3 character", says Matt, about Taliesin's version of Chutney, while I am laughing my ass off thinking that's how Travis got the idea.
Round 2, Episode 8 : aka ¡Viva la Revolución! Aabria brings in the in medias res vibe with the leader of a crime band looking for some quick way of getting rich. Aaaaand the gang transforms this tale, because of course they do. Laura tries her best to salvage her own story thanks to her eyebrows, but alas it doesn't work. Matt plays it like some kind of senile and drunk Gilmore, it's hilarious. Taliesin goes full creepy babushka, and Liam somehow makes it worse, delaying the narrative so much by repeating and whispering the key words at least 3 times, that, by the time it arrives to Ashley and Sam, there's just nothing to do but to go with the flow. "If you like to join this plan, please check YES in this box right here". During the Show & Tell, Travis as the Number 1 Aabria fan is always the best. Laura repeating than Marisha did so good, throwing herself in front of the bus because she knew she did way worse. The rest is just me laughing my ass off for 40 minutes. What a way to end the season !
Round 3, Episode 1 : aka Everyone Is Turned On By Robbie's Voice. Liam is second and immediately goes into hysterics, and does the classic Liam Rewind. Aabria is judging the narrative pretty heavily while telling it, and we almost lost the goblin part, which seems important. By the time we're going to Ashley and Matt, the story has lost almost all elements, including : the goblin part, the good looks, the implication of a threesome, and some of the names, but we added chiseled nips into the mix ! Aimée is a genius and starts with A GUITAR and frames the thing as open mic night, which is... honestly a good choice, at this point ! "You are the Riegel of this group" said Liam about Aimée. Love that in the end, all everybody cared about was openly lusting after Robbie's voice
Round 3, Episode 2 : aka DENI$E IS HERE. I'm so happy I got to watch the infamous origin story of Deni$e, Dariax's ex ! Aimée is crazy good, and everyone does their best effort to bring the trashy and ridiculous and loving vibe to this "Breakup Lettah". Everyone is impressed by Anjali, as they should be, and Liam calls her version "a Scorcese retelling" with how much emotion she's injected in it. Aimée did so much research and thinking on her story, I'm glad she got to use all of her research in Campaign 3. I want to see Deni$e again at some point.
That was wonderful, and whenever, in the future, I feel sad, those viedos will be on my watch list, for sure.

Steve Urkel, menace to society?
In the 90′s the formula for sitcoms was dysfunction = comedy. There are many examples of this in various shows like Boy Meets World, Martin, My Brother and Me and the topic of today Family Matters. Last year I set forth to debunk the rumor of Judith Winslow that one day young Judy went upstairs and never came back down. So to do that I watched the first 4 seasons of Family Matters and on that journey there was a lot to unpack and that’s not all happening today. 
Tumblr media
(AI generated Steve Urkel Drawing Using WOMBO)
Since I brought it up the last episode Judy was on was Grandmom Winslow’s wedding episode. She did not go upstairs during that sequence for any reason. What is even funnier is that a few episodes before that during the credits the Winslow's sit down to watch something on TV Judy is sitting at the end of the couch. Urkel decides to try to squeeze himself in the middle which bumps Judy off the couch onto the floor. I don’t know if that was intentional foreshadowing like they knew that the contract for her wasn’t renewed or whatever but it is ironic that Urkel dethrones her and she is gone within a couple episodes.
While I was watching the show to see when exactly Judy disappeared from the show a lot of things about Urkel bothered me while watching the show. Not things that were funny, but things that were played for jokes and I’m just sitting thinking “someone should probably call child protective services.” For those who don’t remember Family Matters that well, Urkel shows up for one episode in season 1 and then in season 2 he’s worked in more as a regular character until it basically became the Steve Urkel show left in many a 90′s kid’s memories.
Family Matters was originally a spin off of some show I don’t remember the name of where Harriett Winslow is an elevator attendant and Carl shows up from time to time. There’s even an episode where Harriett asks for a raise and gets fired because elevator attendants aren’t needed and half of the episode is her stressing about finding a job but since it’s a sitcom before that 30 minute mark hits she got a job. You don’t really need to watch it unless you have a extreme curiosity.
So what bothered me about Steve Urkel? Early on it’s established that his parents seemingly do not care for him. In one episode Urkel says that he’s not allowed in his home before his curfew time. Another episode indicates that he’s not eating after he runs to the Winslow’s fridge and grabs their cheese. These are jokes quickly passed off as jokes in the early part of season 2, I don’t remember exactly what episodes. The greatest thing that I found issue with about Urkel is his pursuits of Laura Winslow. He was relentless and often put himself in physical danger to get a date with Laura. One episode he sat on the Winslow’s roof during a storm and refused to come down unless Laura went on a date with him. In season 4 Urkel was following Laura on dates trying to sabotage them.
Urkel was basically presented as this lovable character and at the end of every episode all would be forgiven. I feel like that can only go so far, he caused so much money in property damage repeatedly breaking the Winslow’s kitchen windows, destroying other parts of their home with his inventions, burning down Rachel’s Restaurant as well as many other things. At what point does someone say like hey maybe we need to do something about Urkel, he’s cost this family so much money in repair costs, he’s constantly harassing our daughter something’s got to give. 
What makes the situation even more complicated is that when Urkel met Myra in season 4 he was practically out of the picture. Laura had this episode where she realized that she missed Steve bothering her and went to talk to her Aunt Rachel. Aunt Rachel could have said something like you know what, do something to take your mind off of Steve, he’s happy and you can be happy too. Nope she reinforces the fact that Laura missed Steve and gives her the idea that Laura considered him a friend. Which caused Laura to interfere with the relationship between Steve Urkel and Myra. Honestly the whole thing was kind of undeserved for the character Myra and I think after possibly going back to that season and refreshing myself on some things I could do another in depth look at the Laura, Steve and Myra dynamic. For now I will leave you with this, Steve Urkel might have been a funny character and even now you might look back at some of the things he did and laugh but he probably should not have been around the Winslows at all.

Magic powers, or super powers, either way. . . .giving smiles feels incredible. 10-7-23
"Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity." - Simone Weil
Attention is also the most. . .financially thrifty kind of service. Lol
I woke up this morning on about a 15 to 18-inch strip on the left side of my bed. My arms were uncovered and cold, and I was using a purple dino squishmallow that was about 7 or 8 inches around, instead of my pillow.
My pillow was full of a little person. My grandson, who didn't need all of any of these things, was warm, content, and completely comfortable. Lol
Smiles can be found in the most unusual of places.
Do you want to feel better? Do you need to feel better about you and your life?
Make someone else feel better in theirs. It works almost every time.
It can start with those in your immediate family, or you know, your "inner circle," but as you move on in life, being of service to others is definitely full of feel goods.
The more you don't put expectations on it, the better you'll feel about your good deed. No expectations also means no expected reciprocation.
For me, smiles, happiness, giggles, joy, love, and laughter are their own contagious reward.
Figure out your own formula, but find one. Seeking purpose in life is rarely found in selfish endeavors. Just sayin'.
We have a full day planned with a couple of the other grands. We're going down to Independence, KS, to see another Laura Ingalls Wilder home. This is the cabin portrayed in the pilot episode or season 1, episode 1 of the Little House on the Prairie t.v. series.
I'll probably force the older 2 grands to watch that episode so they'll better understand what we're there for. Not just looking at old stuff. (Which is also cool when we get older) Lol
Others are starting to stir, so in a true Pawpaw fashion, I should probably start getting ready for our full day.
Drink some coffee (blueberry crisp drip ground coffee I ordered online- so good), put my teeth in, wash face, put on deodorant, get dressed, and help figure out breakfast. It'll probably mean running to the store.
It is nice finding words for in here, without having saved any notes from the last week. Lol
My head and my heart are in this place currently, so it makes sense.
Hope you all have an equally enjoyable weekend.
Make someone smile, then share your love and your laughter with the rest of the world!
It's a win/win!
Until next time;
"Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth." - Muhammad Ali

Down The Road (F1 x Reader) SMAU Season 1
>> Down The Road 𝙈𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙩
➡  Previous Part : Next Part
Taglist: @raizelchrysanderoctavius , @laura-naruto-fan1998 , @jpg3 , @tsukishimawhore , @minkyungseokie , @roseseraj , @bbhyuneee , @omgsuperstarg @roseseraj (If you want to be added in this fic, just tell me in reply )
A/N : I got huge inspiration after reading Zendaya's definition of Hunter Schafer in the 2021 TIME100 NEXT, and I vowed to include this scene in my fic. LOL, Time Magazine practically became the main plot for this Episode. I'm putting a lot of effort into every detail, so if you like it, don't forget to like and reblog
Episode 4 will be the final part of Lewis Hamilton. After this, the series will move on to a new season with new storyline and new main characters. Stay tuned for Season 2 of the "Down The Road" series!
note ; As you can see, I want my SMAU to be as realistic as possible. So there will be both positive and negative comments from F1 fans. Just to show you that the social network has people with various attitudes, not everyone has a positive attitude.

Season 1 : ── 𝐃𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐲 𝐋𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐬 ── (Lewis Hamilton x Reader) S1 : E03 𝑅𝑢𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑠
The year 2024 started with a lot of news and a lot of rumors, especially for Formula 1 drivers. Y/N, in particular, has had to deal with a great deal of attention since last year when she made it clear that her goal was to clinch this year's championship. This has subjected her to considerable pressure, not only from her performance on the track but also regarding her personal life. The rumors about her relationship with Lewis Hamilton don't seem to be fading away easily; in fact, they are growing more intense with time.

The year 2023 is coming to an end, confirming Max Verstappen as the new world champion of the year. He secured a memorable victory at the Qatar Grand Prix, considered one of the toughest F1 races this year. There were several tense moments on the track, with one of the most talked-about incidents being the collision between Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, teammates, resulting in missed opportunities for both to be on the Podium
However, two other drivers who have made a lasting impact this year and are worth mentioning are Oscar Piastri and Y/N YLN, the two rookies in the world of Formula 1. They have consistently impressed in various races and are closely watched by experts as potential contenders who could challenge Verstappen for the championship title in the near future.

@LewisHamilton on @Y/N #TIME100Next : 
I truly believe anyone lucky enough to meet Y/N will feel the immense light that is constantly radiating from her. She makes everyone in her orbit feel seen. I’ve had the privilege of watching her tap into every facet of her courage as a girl driver in Formula 1, and I am lucky to call her one of my special ones. Her ability to solve on-the-spot problems, compete in a male-dominated industry fearlessly, and continuously set impressive records is truly remarkable. Additionally, her beautiful heart, honesty, and selflessness, which are rare qualities in the world of Formula 1, leave me so impressed that I'm at a loss for words.
Y/N is so special in so many ways that I could go on forever, but this truly is only her beginning. There is no limit to the wins she will create.
Hamilton is a seven-time Formula One world champion

This year's Bahrain Grand Prix Formula 1 race was exceptionally intense and special, with the special appearance of two Latin pop stars, Úrsula and Shakira, both of whom are currently rumored to be romantically linked with Formula 1 racers, Y/N and Lewis Hamilton.
What makes this even more interesting and complex is that Y/N and Hamilton were previously rumored to be in a romantic relationship with each other before they seemingly drifted apart last year. Now It seems like both of them have moved on to new romances, especially considering the clear distance they've maintained throughout the competition, and the arrival of both pop stars further solidifies that they are each embarking on new relationships, closing the door of romantic rumor between the two drivers once and for all.
However, the new relationships might not be smooth. According to insiders, Shakira herself has been rumored to be nurturing a romance with another star, Tom Cruise. While Úrsula and Y/N have rumors circulating that they had an argument before the female singer flew back to Los Angeles the next day, maybe both Y/N and Hamilton are more suitable to be single than in a relationship with someone? What are your thoughts? Feel free to leave your comments!

reasons why you should respect k-mag:
jan magnussen was 19 years old when kevin was born and his mother, britt, was only 17 years old. his dad had just moved to england to race when she found out that she was pregnant. while i think his parents are wonderful, he wasn’t born into the easiest situation. he grew up with not a lot of money.  
kevin has been driving since he was 2 years old, watch this clip.  
despite his dad being away a lot, kevin really looked up to him. he has said it was tough for the whole family when his dad was left without a drive after being released from his formula 1 team and that jan was basically shunned in the racing world for a while.  
kevin was bullied by the others karting racers and especially their dads because they saw jan magnussen as a failure. while jan magnussen is pretty successful now, it took quite a while for him to be branded as a success, most people just focused on the fact he had not done well in f1.  
he struggled in school and was laughed at when his only life plans were that he wanted to win the formula 1 wdc one day.   
unfortunately, kevin has been through quite a lot at a young age. when he was 16 years old, his mum got sick with ovary cancer that spread throughout her body, and it looked like she would not survive. by some medical miracle she did. but at 17 years old, his uncle, who kevin was very close with, committed suicide. so basically in the space of less than two years, he almost lost his mum, and had to watch her be really sick, and then he lost his uncle, who had been like a second father to him, in tragic circumstances.   
throughout his life, kevin struggled getting sponsorships. despite his dad being a professional racing driver, jan was not rich enough to pay the way for his son. it became so bad that a few years before his formula 1 debut, kevin was working as a factory welder to try and make enough money to keep racing, thinking his racing career was already over. he only got sponsored by jack & jones after he had already gotten into formula 1, so he’s so far removed from being a money driver as one can be. he has publicly refused to ever pay for his formula 1 seat, he wants to be paid and chosen based on his skills.  
he was fired by mclaren after falling victim to the power battle within the team and after being promised a seat for 2015. basically most of the board wanted to retain him instead of jenson button, but the richest wanted to keep button and so in the power struggle, it was kevin who became their reserve driver. and then a year later he was fired... ON HIS BIRTHDAY!   
he had a miserable season at renault despite being thankful for them bringing him back into formula 1. he was offered a seat for the 2017 season but chose to accept an offer from haas because he wanted to get away from the toxic situation at renault, where some members of the leadership did not even want to greet him on race weekends. renault did not even publicly say they had offered him the seat instead of palmer.  
kevin came alive at haas, using a season to get used to the team, and then delivering a good 2018 season. then it went downhill from there until he ultimately lost his seat to make room for m*zepin and his daddy’s dirty money.  
he was offered a williams seat for 2021 to replace george russell. yes, you heard that right. williams wanted to kick russell out of formula 1. kevin declined since he did not want to drive another slow car and he felt like it was very sketchy of williams to get rid of george, who kevin believed to be a talented driver deserving of his seat in f1.  
he married a school teacher, an “ordinary” woman and not a supermodel, and they have a daughter, laura, who was born 7 weeks too early. she was in the nicu for quite a while, but luckily she seems to have no issues (as far as we know, and if there are some then that’s private).   
kevin has always been well liked by all the crews he has worked with - especially the renault and haas crews. he is known for being honest, down to earth and easy to work with. watch this video of him returning to haas, you can basically see their eyes light up.  
k-mag is known to be an aggressive racer, which he has confirmed he is, but he sees himself as hard but fair. he rarely complains about other drivers. he is passionate and always gives it 100%. kevin is confused by the bad boy reputation he had in f1, and revealed it was even a joke within the haas team. i think people forget kevin has basically always been racing for p8 to p10, he has never been in a truly competitive car, and so maybe he raced with his elbows out a lot because that was his only chance of getting points.     
all his teammates have called him extremely fast and adaptable in various variations. kevin does not need the car to be perfect to do well in a race.    
k-mag is without a doubt the best starter in f1. it is rare for him to lose positions on the first lap. we have seen starters where he has overtaken four or five cars within the first lap, cars that have been faster than his own at the time.  
he did quite well in his season away from formula 1, trying out different things to see what suited him. when guenther called and offered him the seat, kevin said yes purely based on his gut feeling. he knew that he was saying goodbye to a potential championship to drive a haas car that no one expected much from.    
without any physical f1 training (mainly the neck), without having ever driven the 2022 car, not even in simulator, kevin got to bahrain and managed to get a few hours in of testing before he qualified p7 (while having an issue with the car) and getting p5 in the race. 
i’m very happy to finally see he is getting the recognition he deserves. i adore that kevin seems to have freed himself from all the pressure and the bullshit he endured during his time in f1, and is now just enjoying it. he really deserves a chance at one of the big teams, i hope he gets at least one season to prove what he can really do with a car that could win.

Laura, you're my go to motorsports expert person and I have a question. Is Formula E worth watching? I've been seeing alot of stuff about it lately and I'm intrigued. And as someone going into their second season (albeit first full season) of Formula 1, I want to know if Formula E is good to watch. And if so, what do I need to know before hand.
Sorry this is random, I had to ask before I forgot:)
Formula E DEFINITELY worth watching. I enjoy it more than F1 these days, and if these new regulations don't fix F1 / what happened in abu dhabi sticks to its reputation and it continues to decline, my unpopular opinion is I think FE could overtake it in various ways within this decade.
But that defines FE in relation to F1 which, whilst inevitable, is also unfair. It's its own series with its own standards and rules. The action in FE has only been getting better, closer, and more intense. The 2021 monaco e-prix was probably the first time in a decade (maybe more) that the monaco grand prix circuit was raced the way it should be raced. The paddock is incredibly friendly and has a real family feeling to it. Most of the teams don't take themselves too seriously and there's just this atmosphere of enjoying the racing. It somehow manages to provide emotional moments, dramatic moments, and absolutely HYSTERICALLY funny moments all the time.
Lime's done an amazing guide to the series here! It's pretty much anything you could possibly need to know. I really recommend checking this out and the series itself
