not sure if this was intentional or not but nemik saying in his manifesto “Remember this: Try.” is an interesting sentiment given that “do or do not, there is no try” is like one of the more famous lines from the original trilogy
Whenever I am reminded of Mick's existence, I double down on my take that we should've seen jealous Dean. "I reckon you can finish me off without breaking a sweat." Sam has to physically hold Dean back from punching Mick in the face. "My number." Dean rips it up and throws it at Mick's face. What if Mick's confessing his sad backstory and relating it to Cas like look, we both rebelled in some ways, the system's fucked, and Dean bursts in. "Yeah and he did all of that shit for me." Mick throwing casual touches, a slap on Cas' back, his chest, or shoulders; Dean threatens to break Mick's hand while wiping at the places he touched.
And this happens before Dean even realizes why he's being possessive. These are just instinctual and Cas just lets him.

bet you feel like an idiot for calling out daniel now
Um... I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you do not speak French and got duped by that tweet’s sensationalist headline. As it happens, I do - so let me help you out:
Interviewer: "There is another element that could play in your favour, which is the mood at Red Bull is deteriorating whether we want it or not. With everything that happened, [in Ferrari] you are more relaxed. At some point of the season, this can play a part?"
Charles: "Yes, but it's not... I just want to win fair and square on the track and to reach that goal, we have to focus on ourselves and try to understand what are the things to improve on the car. On this, we are fully focused on what we need to do, on our weaknesses and the weaknesses of the car. But as I've already said in Bahrain, we are very clear on what we need to improve on the car, and we are in a positive spiral with the team these days. Since the second part of last season, we really identified where we need to work and we saw immediate improvements and we need to do the same now."

First of all, the question itself is pretty distasteful. Sexual harassment allegations and workplace safety for women shouldn't be parsed down to "hey, do you think you can take advantage of this to drive faster than Red Bull?!" What a terrible, insensitive way to frame this whole situation.
As for Charles' answer, I'm not going to say it's the best answer in the world. Could he have used the opportunity to acknowledge the greater problem of sexual harassment and the safety of women working in F1? Absolutely, he could have done better. But he answered the question that he was asked, which was does he think the controversy surrounding Red Bull can be used to his advantage. He essentially said "no, I'd rather beat them fair and square by being the best team." At no point did he actually say "that stuff doesn't concern me." Nor did he call it "a lot of noise and distractions" and wish for all of this to "slowly go away" and praise Red Bull for how they are handling it.

“I called Bobby, by the way.” he changes the subject again before Eddie can respond and deny that he’s pouting now, which he definitely is, lower lip pushed forward in the most adorable way. Eddie just sighs, which turns into a cough.
“What for?” he manages to croak out.
“To tell him you’re sick and can’t go to work tomorrow.” Buck moves towards the medicine cabinet and pulls out some cough drops, placing them on the table in front of Eddie. “Like I said I would. Don’t argue, you’re staying home and getting better.”
“Ugh, fine.” Eddie responds with less fight than Buck expected. Maybe he’s slowly starting to admit he is, in fact, sick. Or maybe just really wants to finally talk, and is trying to speed it up. Either way, Buck’s not complaining. “But you’re going to work?”
“Yeah, why wouldn’t I?” Buck turns away to check on the soup again, gets a spoon to try it.
“So you’re gonna leave me here all alone?” Eddie sighs dramatically, and Buck chuckles again.
“You’ll live. I’ll come here straight after. And-” he turns back towards Eddie. “I’m gonna stay the night and get Christopher to school tomorrow, too. Just so you can rest and really recover. Don’t fight me on this, you won’t win this one.” he says, half-teasing, and sees Eddie’s face melt into gratitude and so much love, now full on display, likely also tired of hiding it.
“You can stay forever.” he says so earnestly it takes Buck’s breath away. He wants nothing more than to stay here forever, in Eddie’s home, by Eddie’s side, with him and Christopher, the two halves of his heart.
