also can't stop thinking about his use of the phrase 'shelf life' like lewis is some commodified product he could sell, put a price on and dispose off when no longer needed like...it is disrespectful if not downright cruel to refer to someone like that let alone your own fucking driver who is still driving your fuck ass tractor showing up and not saying one bad word against you

Grid Yori (?)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Might end up making a design myself because it’s a fun thing to do. When transferring her to the grid there’s a tendency to loose parts of her design, which is understandable because the grids so minimalist but also… think of the potential
I’d if anything lean heavier into the fact her outfit is very heavily inspired by the 80s aerobics trend. The grid is a bit less conservative when it comes to light suits allowing programs to show some skin (still more covered than ISOs but that’s another story) so I’d take advantage!!! Hello???? Simpfying the design to make the leotard more pronounced, maybe a cute shoulder or mid drift moment? Hello???
Imagine getting your ass kicked by someone who just got back from Jazzersize. Absolutely amazing. - ok I might make something…

I love the Olympics. They aren’t perfect, and sports cannot and should not be the only way we bring the world together. But there’s something so heartening about the way sports do bring the world together.
I watch the Olympics, and I feel like maybe things can be better than they are. That we are stronger together than apart. The camaraderie between these athletes is so special. You watch hopes and dreams realized and crushed. But these competitors are there for each other.
Sometimes I don’t think the world can ever find common ground, but every couple of years, we do just that.
Thanks for the memories, Paris. Can’t wait for LA.

While they had different interests and talents, just like when they were children, the youngest twins were thick as thieves when they were teens. They were happy to spend time together doing each other's hobbies.
