🇬🇧🇩🇪 The Vauxhall Senator was a flagship luxury sedan that embodied British elegance with German engineering. Introduced in 1978 and produced until 1994, it was a rebadged version of the Opel Senator, tailored for the UK market. Known for its spacious interiors and advanced features, the Senator became a popular choice among executives and police forces alike.
⚙️ Under the hood, it offered a range of powerful engines, from a 2.5L inline-six to the range-topping 3.0L version producing up to 200 horsepower. This, combined with rear-wheel drive and a smooth ride, made the Senator a symbol of performance and comfort.
✨ The second generation, launched in 1987, introduced modernized styling, improved aerodynamics, and cutting-edge technology like ABS and electronic fuel injection. While production ceased in 1994, the Senator left a lasting impression as one of Vauxhall’s most iconic luxury vehicles.

The words "horse" and "car" have a common origin.
Both “horse” and “car” can be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European (PIE) language, suggesting a distant common origin in linguistic roots. Proto-Indo-European (PIE) is the reconstructed common ancestor of the Indo-European language family, which includes languages like English, Latin, Greek, and many others.

I'm sorry but the irony of Nico calling Max unprofessional is sending me so bad like sir there's an entire garage full of people, who were literally in the trenches trying to survive the Brocedes fallout while just doing their jobs, who might have a few things to say about your (& Lewis') level of professionalism at that time 😭✋️
#f1#formula 1#formula one#max verstappen#nico rosberg#lewis hamilton#brocedes#like niki lauda had to try multiple times to literally parent trap them to try and get them on speaking terms it never worked#because one would arrive they'd see the other and the other would leave#& if i remember correctly the garage crew would swap around from race to race as a like see we aren't favouring anybody gesture 😭#and thats no shade to nico because it was both of them contributing to that environment#his comment re max is just making me laugh#like if i was a part of the pr/media team - which is a part of the degree I'm working on irl - at merc that year i would've lost the plot#like its insane reflecting on it nearly a decade later but the poor souls just trying to do their job in the eye of that storm#truly gods strongest soldiers#ngl the professional comment irks me a bit because its not like max is engaging in inappropriate work place behaviour#he's engaging in another aspect of racing that his involvement raises awareness of & that makes racing more accessible#& we all know how inaccessible not only getting into racing is but also to continue to pursue the further along you go#theres so many stories of 1 sibling giving up racing so the other can keep going because the family can't afford for them both to race#its a huge financial strain & we only see a handful of drivers talk about that & try to do something to change it#and nicos fellow sky sports commentators are routinely unprofessional on so many levels#additionally max had a lot of valid reasons to be annoyed at his team today#but alas he's not english so he's ungrateful#i hate that drivers can't criticise their teams or car without immediately being branded as bratty & ungrateful#ESPECIALLY WHEN THEIR JOB IS TO GIVE FEEDBACK#you can see the double standards from sky when say Lando or George have complaints with their team/car v the likes of Max and Yuki#especially Yuki my god the things i would do to get the British media to leave him alone#this was a jokey post at one point and then became a rant whoops lmao#I'll leave it that before i write an actual essay here 😭✋️

Gem saying “If both us make it to the finale we should just duke it out, like old times” (paraphrase) to Joel at the start of the episode and then Joel actually duking it out with Grian on top of Bam Mountain and killing him by throwing him off the mountain (like how he died in 3rd life, jumping off of Monopoly Mountain post killing Scar) was amazing

CBS Ghosts is my new guilty pleasure so take my new OCs. The Blanchet family were distant French cousins of the Woodstones who visited the house in the early 1900s, only for a violent house robbery to take the life of their youngest daughter, Mercedes, and her loyal self appointed guard dog, Horse. Only 8 years old, it takes some time for Mercedes to understand her fate, and for some time she’d be very distressed that her family seem to be ignoring her. On the bright side, the other ghosts are there to try and make things easier, though the misfit collective have a hard time caring for a child given their circumstances, and conflicting ideas on how best to raise a little girl.

Of all the ghosts, she is closest with Thorfinn. He has a soft spot for the little girl.

🇬🇧 Embark on a journey through the illustrious lineage of the Aston Martin Lagonda, spanning from 1976 to 1990, a testament to automotive luxury and innovation!
👑 Founded in 1913, Aston Martin has become synonymous with luxury, English elegance, and high-performance automobiles. In the early 1970s, it continued to push the boundaries of automotive design and engineering.
🚘 The Aston Martin Lagonda lineup of the late 1970s and 1980s exemplified the pinnacle of luxury automobiles, featuring sleek and sophisticated designs that set new standards for elegance and refinement.
🛞 Beneath their refined exteriors, the Lagonda boasted powerful V8 engines, delivering exhilarating performance and effortless cruising. Their spacious and sumptuously appointed interiors were outfitted with the latest amenities, including plush leather upholstery and polished wood trim.
💡 The Lagonda was known for its innovative use of electronic systems, including digital dashboard displays, onboard computers, and advanced climate control systems, setting new benchmarks for automotive technology and innovation.
💔 Despite critical acclaim and a loyal following, production of the Aston Martin Lagonda ultimately ceased in 1990. One of the key factors contributing to the discontinuation of the Lagonda series was the high cost of production and limited demand in the luxury car market.

something that rly grinds my gears in theatre is when choices are made solely based on time period. and not including themes, symbolism, yk the actual Meaning of the show alongside its true-to-context setting.
take gatsby for example. you can either go “okay it’s in the 1920s in these parts of new york so we’re gonna have super glitz and glam here here and here” or. or.
you can say “okay well we know that for jay and daisy, their wealth came from other people’s downfalls (daisy through turning down jay and jay through wolfshiem’s deeds) and their status and class privilege is represented through myrtle getting hit by the car right. so let’s make that the entire setting of the play, disguised by glitz and glam. let’s make the entire set shiny and pretty and have those shiny and pretty things actually be smashed-up car parts, meaning the car accident is ‘happening’ the whole play, while still upholding the illusion of new money glam”. do u get me.
