The other day I was reading Hymiskviða (the story of Thor fetching a cauldron and fishing up Jörmungandr), and there was a kenning for "boat" in it that translates to "floating-goat" and that's when I realized the phrase "whatever floats your goat" is probably not new.

who else up thinking about how benson was randy's first and randy was benson's last? benson gave randy his first good day in ages, benson had his last good day ever. randy experienced his first love, benson his last. that day was the first time randy found the courage to start fighting for himself, and also the final time benson lost the courage to keep going.

the start of randy's life. the end of benson's.

I wonder if my parents realize that they've already lost me. That my smiles are fake and my eyes are constantly searching for escape routes. That I'm just biding my time until I can be free of them. I wonder if they know that I was never theirs to keep.

“It’s literally impossible to be a woman.

You are so beautiful, and so smart, and it kills me that you don't think you're good enough. Like, we have to always be extraordinary, but somehow, we're always doing it wrong?

You have to be thin, but not too thin, and you can never say you wanna be thin. You have to say you wanna be healthy, but also, you have to BE THIN.

You have to have money, but you can't ask for money because that's crass.

You have to be a boss, but you can't be mean.

You have to lead, but you can't squash other people's ideas.

You're supposed to love being a mother, but don't talk about your kids all the damn time.

You have to be a career woman, but also, always be looking out for other people.

You have to answer for men's bad behavior, which is INSANE, but if you point that out, you're accused of complaining!

You're supposed to stay pretty for men, but not so pretty that you tempt them too much or that you threaten other women because you're supposed to be a part of the sisterhood, but ALWAYS STAND OUT and ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL. But never forget that the system is rigged, so find a way to acknowledge that but ALSO, always be grateful!

You have to never get old. Never be rude. Never show off. Never be selfish. Never fall down. Never fail. Never show fear. Never get OUT OF LINE. It's too hard! It's too contradictory, and nobody gives you a medal or says 'thank you!' And it turns out, in fact, that not only are you doing everything wrong, but also, everything is your fault.

I'm just so tired of watching myself, and every single other woman tie herself into knots, so that people will like us.

And if all of that, is also true for a doll just representing a woman, then I don't even know." -Gloria the barbie movie

this is it. this is exactly it oh my god.

H

You see

Growing Up in this …

They see u struggling ,falling and slipping

They do see u ,they do know,they do understand

But one thing they would never do is helping u

They would back up and stay still

Thinking , time will do you good by passing

U will grow up and will get it together later

By your own

They don’t know what will happen but they are sure they won’t have to see u struggling with the same thing anymore

The one’s who want to help would say “life goes on ”

Yeah life do goes on

But I want it to fucking goes good

Goes while I’m happy , healthy and fixed

And u know whats fucked up even more

It’s when THEY are your own parents

Hi :) just a bit curious about this post of yours >>>> /post/727134503331561472/2011-2023 << was Max a Redbull junior team driver back in 2011?? I always thought he got there only in 2014??

as far as I know, he did join the junior team in 2014 but I could be wrong??? However, Daniel and Max did meet at the Red Bull Kart Fight (which is basically a tournament to determine the fastest amateur kart racer) in Zandvoort in 2011– Daniel, an RBR junior and F1 rookie, and Max one of the top karters at that time – which is why I think he was at that event.

here's the video! Unfortunately, I can't understand Dutch (tw: jos jkljkl)

(Someone who has more knowledge on Max's karting/racing career pls help 😭)
