notes from nicole piastri's interview on red flags pod

oscar started playing monopoly and chess when he was 4-5 but he was too good at chess (relative to nicole) that she boycotted it

nicole opened her twitter account because oscar wasn't replying to her at boarding school and she needed a place to chastise him ("can you not answer... i KNOW you're on your phone") (it worked because he started replying to her there)

instead of unflappable she calls him "conservative"

even during christmas and birthdays he was never super excited, one time they went with a group of 5 mums and 5 kids to a hi-5 concert (popular australian kids' musical group) and while all the kids were "going nuts" oscar just sat there "focused the whole time" and didn't smile or move lmfao. they were like 3 years old

didn't know what she was doing with oscar as a baby because he was her first child and her mothers' group was her only reference and they went "isn't the best part of the day when you wake up and go to their crib and they smile at you?" and she was like ??? because oscar would wake up and just SCREAM every single day needing to be out of there immediately and she thought that was just normal... then she had the girls and went "ahhhh... so that's what they're talking about"

when he was younger than 2 he needed them to read car magazines to him and was already obsessed with all things automotive and while they were driving would just name off and point out car brands by their badges

for a long period of time he behaved like he was a car and would "spin" his wheels and pretend to accelerate and run like a car lol

did a big burnout the first time he was on a bike (it had training wheels but he still learned very early)

as a mum she wishes he'd chosen golf or tennis since it's much safer than f1 and sometimes people tell her that she technically had a say in that when he was a kid and she said "but i didn't! it was just in him!!!"

won an academic award when he was 13 and she was president of the parents' community so she presented it to him, normally these events are super formal and you simply shake hands but she gave him a big kiss and instead of acting embarrassed or spluttering he looked at the crowd, nodded silently, and walked off

came back for the summer a few years ago and they were biking on the beach together when she had to brake hard to avoid a kid and went over, when she recovered and got back on he went "are you all right?" very deadpan but after they got home they checked his heart rate monitor and saw that he was totally steady the whole time except for when she crashed and his heart rate went through the roof, told him "ah so you do have a heart... we just don't see it"

"there's no sibling that can piss him off?" "well he's a boy with three girls so he just doesn't go there because he's never going to win"

met lily in person for the first time when he came home for the melbourne grand prix (was still alpine reserve), at midnight oscar was like "hey mum you know the dts film crew are coming tomorrow morning right?" and she was like WHAT... and he was like yeah it'll be chill they just want to film us having breakfast like a normal family or whatever and she was like Mate you haven't lived here for 5 years now do you know what breakfast looks like. it looks like your sisters storming downstairs and grabbing an inappropriate breakfast and storming out the door giving me the finger!!! and then the next morning lily comes down and nicole is like "oh is oscar up?" and lily is like no... i think he's still in bed... (many such cases) and then mae refused to be in it so she got dressed and ran off to school 2 hours early to escape them. and then the mclaren fiasco happened and the whole thing got cut out of dts anyway

when she said "oh my god you met matt damon!" he was just like (shrugs) "yeah... yeah..."

they communicate by facetiming and he's Always lying in bed. one time in bahrain he was leaning back on an ornate tapestry and she asked what hotel he was staying at and he was like oh i'm at the royal palace i'm like a guest of the crown prince. she freaked out and was like "oh my god!!! get your head off the tapestry!!!" and he just looked back like ? no it's fine it looks pretty old lol

called her to tell her that he signed his f1 contract and when he said mclaren she Realized and was like oh no i love daniel!! and he straight up deadpanned "yeah everyone loves daniel. that's going to be a problem..." and said verbatim "of all the f1 drivers ever daniel is the worst one to be replacing"

one time in f4 chris couldn't go to a race and billy monger had just had his crash so she flew to the uk for the weekend to support him and when she was driving him back to boarding school she was happy because she had 2 hours to spend with him and she wasn't sure when she'd see him again but instead he slept the whole way through and the moment they got back to school he went "ahhhh... home sweet home" and she wanted to slap him lmfao

first day of primary school when he was 5 years old he said he didn't need her to walk him to school and she was like "well i actually do mate" so he forced her to walk behind him the whole way and the moment they got there he turned to her and went "all right i'm here you can go now" 😭

the chinese & italian & yugoslavian is on chris's side of the family while nicole's is scottish & irish ("that's where the pasty skin comes from")

red flags pod sent her a shirt with oscar's face composed of His Tweet and she showed it to him and he immediately said he wanted it

he gave her a small warning before he posted the tweet but it was just like "mum so this is going to happen just don't worry about it. it's all under control. it'll be fine" and was very calm the whole time

"we just had to trust that his personality would come through at some point, because the way he came across was not at all what he's like. people will work out who the real you is so just continue to do what you do" 🥺

all of the kids were obsessed with Cars (2006)

likes his mum's golden syrup dumplings and grandmother's rumballs

AT THE SINGAPORE GP IN 2023 HATTIE DISAPPEARED FOR HOURS TO GO SEE A K-POP CONCERT 😭😭😭😭 i think it was p1h lmfao (nicole was asked for her favorite group and went "i have no idea. five boys") ((it's txt)) meanwhile oscar is only into house music and she thinks everything he plays is the same song

did pilates when he went home but never with her and thinks it's a lot harder than it looks

takes him minimum 24 hours to respond to anything she sends

she had an exact conversation with oscar where she asked who he wanted to be teammates with and he said "well if i go up against lando i don't even have to get close the first year because everyone knows how good he is" 😭

oscar you are so you 🧡

I’m gonna gush about The Journal I’ve made for 2025

So the point of a travelers notebook, as I’ve said before, is to sling together booklets that can be interchanged inside a leather cover

Here’s my setup

The inside cover has a contact card and stencil just in case. I have a plastic sleeve insert that can hold cards but since it’s see thru I have it holding photos

The other side of the plastic sleeve holds temporary lists (this ones my Christmas list.) this is also the cover of my Annual book, a book that will ideally last half the year, if not all of it

The annual book has monthlies from November 2024 to July 2025

After that it’s a future log. Also in this book are lists I’ll reference often: automotive information, wishlists, long term to-dos and other such things

Then we have the back of the plastic sleeve with a zipper. Right now I just have a few receipts in there

I then have the card side of my wallet insert. On the other side I have some gift cards, on the side pictures I have important reference cards. I’m debating putting payment cards in here, idk. Right now my phone is also my wallet. The other side of this insert has a zipper and I keep cash inside.

Then I have the monthly book, which will ideally last one month. First I have my diary card, essentially a mood tracker that I bring to my therapist every time we meet

Then I set up all my weekly spreads for the month. On the left, I write any appointments before hand, and then at the end of every day I write a few short bullets about what happened that day. On the right, I have recurring tasks at the top, one off tasks beneath that, time tracking tasks beneath that, and a “need to get” list at the bottom

Also in this book are my daily pages for to dos, random notes and long hand journaling. There’s nothing in this page I don’t mind people reading but I can’t say the same for my entire notebook.

The app won’t let me upload more images

But after this is my sketchbook insert which is self explanatory.

This way ideally I just need this journal and a couple of pens and I’m good wherever I am. I’m so ridiculously happy with this and excited and aaaa

[special-agent-sass]

It’s my first time posting my writing. Go easy on me!

A Reckless Encounter

I've always been a fighter. From the moment I took my first breath in this chaotic world, I learned to battle against the odds that life threw at me. It wasn't easy, though. Growing up with an abusive father, I sought refuge in drugs and alcohol, drowning my sorrows in a haze of self-destruction.

But life had a funny way of throwing curveballs. One fateful night, my reckless ways caught up with me, and I found myself being arrested. As luck would have it, instead of languishing in a jail cell, I was given a chance at redemption in the Marines as an Automotive Maintenance Technician.

The Marines whipped me into shape, physically and mentally, and instilled within me a sense of discipline. After years of service, I decided to embark on a new journey as a field agent for Gibbs’ NCIS team. Gibbs, was an enigma—gruff, tough, and intriguing. And damn, did he stir something within me.

We clashed like thunder and lightning, our arguments a constant symphony in the bullpen. He berated me for my reckless behavior, and I shot back with my signature stubbornness. But beneath our heated exchanges, there were sparks of chemistry, a magnetic pull that had us tiptoeing the line between professionalism and desire.

One day, during a particularly tense mission, I made a costly mistake. Gibbs threatened to strip me of my field duties.

The team, briefing room. Now," he barks, his voice firm and commanding.

I walk into the room, feeling the weight of Gibbs' gaze burning into the back of my head. Tony and McGee sit on one side, exchanging playful banter. Ziva stands off to the side, her eyes flickering with curiosity.

Gibbs glares at me as he enters, his eyes filled with a mix of annoyance and concern. I try to avoid his gaze, but it's like a magnet drawing me in.

"Y/n," he starts, his deep voice cutting through the tension.

I take a deep breath, mentally preparing myself for the onslaught of reprimands.

"You made a mistake out there. A big one," Gibbs continues, his voice low and controlled.

I clench my fists, feeling the anger bubbling up inside me. I refuse to let him treat me like a child.

"You can't keep going out on field ops if you're gonna put the whole team at risk," he growls. I feel a surge of adrenaline rush through my veins. This is it. The moment I've been waiting for. The moment where all my pent-up frustrations come to the surface

But I didn’t! Quit treating me like a damn rookie!" I shouted. "So either take me off field ops or get the hell off my back."

Gibbs looked like he wanted to slap me upside the head. But instead, he just glared and walked out without another word.

~time skip cause I’m lazy lmao”

Suddenly, my phone buzzes. A new case. I glance at Gibbs. But his steely gaze is fixed on me. Not in anger, but something else entirely. Gibbs breaks the silence. "Alright, Y/L/N, you think you can handle this mission?" Gibbs asked, his voice laced with skepticism. I knew he was questioning my abilities, but I wasn't about to back down.

"Of course I can, Gibbs," I replied, my voice dripping with confidence. "I've been through worse."

Gibbs narrowed his eyes at me, clearly not amused. "Don't let your recklessness get in the way. We're dealing with dangerous criminals here."

I smirked at him, unable to resist pushing his buttons. "Would you prefer me to be cautious and boring?” Gibbs stepped closer. Our nose were millimetres apart. His icy blue eyes filled with rage. “Watch your tone, Y/L/N.” I took a second to process what he said before I smirked and said “Are we gonna fight or make out because I’m getting some mixed signals here, Jet.”

Gibbs froze, his jaw dropping slightly. I could practically see the gears turning in his head as he processed my words. But before he could respond, I turned on my heel and walked away, leaving him speechless.

As the days turned into weeks, the tension between us grew. We argued, we clashed, and yet, there was an unspoken connection, a chemistry that neither of us could deny. We went through the motions, burying our feelings under Gibbs' infamous Rule Twelve.

But fate has a way of knocking sense into us when we least expect it. On one particularly dangerous assignment, I found myself in a life-or-death situation. The fear gripped me as I looked into the eyes of mortality.

And in that moment, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I couldn't hold back my feelings any longer.

As I lay there, battered and bruised, Gibbs rushed to my side. His voice was filled with worry as he yelled my name. And in a hoarse whisper, I confessed, "I don't want to die without you knowing how I feel."

And just like that, the floodgates opened. Gibbs confessed his own feelings, his voice shaking with emotion.

We had fought, we had argued, and we had danced around each other for so long. But in that moment, we both knew that love had a funny way of finding us in the midst of chaos.

The end

🔞The Devil of Hawkins [Vol 1] - Stranger Things // Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson // 121k

“I’m here in the small town of Hawkins, Indiana. Word of this once peaceful town has swept the nation. It started with a string of missing persons cases in ‘83, many of which were linked to a toxic chemical leak from a lab not far out of town. Unfortunately, that wouldn’t be the last tragedy that befell Hawkins. Unexplained power outages, poisoned crops, mall fires, and even murders seem like only the tip of the iceberg, as just over a week ago, a string of brutal serial murders took the lives of nearly four innocent kids.

“Don’t forget what we talked about, okay?” Eddie said as he held El by the shoulders with a big smile. “I want to see what you’ve accomplished by tomorrow.” He paused. “Well, Steve will see what you’ve accomplished,” he corrected. El nodded. “I am already improving,” she said happily. “She got the butterfly to move,” Steve said as he carried the box of Eddie’s stuff to the trunk of the car. “Oh, shit, seriously?” Eddie beamed at her with pride. “Look at you. I knew you were a smart cookie.” She looked away shyly, not used to such blatant praise.

🔞TDoH Deleted Scene [Night Visit] My fist posted fic - Stranger Things // Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson // 14k

A nearby rustling woke Steve. He glanced around his room from the viewpoint of his bed trying not to lose his slipping grip on sleep. Nothing.

🔞Billy 'The Freak' Hargrove - Stranger Things // Eddie Munson/Billy Hargrove // 10k

Wed, Nov 7th, 1984 Eddie lit a cigarette as he stood behind the school with two of his bandmates during lunch. “Are we entering the battle of the bands this year?” Gareth asked, leaning against the brick wall in front of Eddie. Eddie looked at him with his head tilted down, taking a drag. He exhaled as he lifted his head, “What kind of band would we be if we didn’t?”

🔞Give me Fuel, Give Me Fire - Stranger Things // Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson // 52k (Ongoing)

“Alright you shitbirds, listen up,” Billy Hargrove called into the garage of his business: Hargrove’s Overall Automotive Repair Shop, a.k.a HOAR Shop, or just HOARS. “The polls came in.” He held up his mobile phone. “And our two hottest mechanics are...” He dragged it out for dramatic effect but with a deadpan expression. “Myself, of course, and Harrington.” Steve looked up from the car he was working on and knocked his head on the underside of the hood. “What?!” He looked up at Billy, just in time to see something flying at his face, but not enough time for him to catch it.

Stranger Tales - Stranger Things // Choose Your Own Adventure // 6.5k (Ongoing)

“Yo dingus, your admirers are back,” Robin called from the counter of Scoops Ahoy. Steve pulled back the glass screen, a half-eaten banana in his hand. “What the hell are you talking about?” He said with his mouth full. “I'm in the middle of my break.” He swallowed as Robin turned to face him.

🔞You Know Where to Find Me - Stranger Things // Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson // 9.7k

Steve spent his senior year valentine’s moping. The previous year he had Nancy, this year, he had no one. It was probably the first valentine he’d spent single in at least three years. He just couldn’t bring himself to date anyone else after her. The last bell of the day was his salvation from the mushy couples and especially Nancy and Jonathan. He was just glad he didn’t have basketball practice today; he didn’t want to deal with Billy and Tommy’s taunting.

🔞A Gift for Both of Us - Stanger Things // Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson // 2k

Steve woke up to his third lonely day of watching Eddie's cat, Chrissy while he was on a gig clear across the country. In the eight months they’d been together, the only times they were apart were when Eddie had shoots out of town. Most of them only lasted a couple weeks, but it was depressing being without him. Having Chrissy around helped ease some of the loneliness, and he talked on the phone with Eddie any chance he got, but cells were rarely allowed on set, so their conversations were either short or isolated to morning and night. When he checked his phone, he smiled at the enthusiastic greeting.

Here are some seek peeks at me WIPs to make up for the last 3 fics

🔞You Know Where to Find Me [St. Patrick's Day '85] - Stranger Things // Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson

“Do I really have to do this?” Eddie complained as Wayne fixed the bowtie to the impressively green suit he was forced to wear. “Yes,” Wayne stated simply. “I told ‘em I would months ago before I got swapped to the night shift, so you’ll have to.” “You agreed to it, not me,” he grumbled. “Quit yer bitchin’. If you’re gonna act a fool, might as well look like one.”

When You Feel the Lightning - Stranger Things // Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson

Steve was bored at home after a late shift at Family Video and walked out back for a smoke. He sat on one of the pool chairs and stared up at the night sky. A distant sound of guitar caught his attention. He shrugged it off, thinking it was just one of his neighbors. It didn’t take him long to realize it wasn’t coming from the direction of any of his neighbors. It was coming from the woods. He took the last long drag of his cigarette and put it out in the ashtray before standing to investigate.

I also have a WIP for the Steddie BigBang, but I'm not allowed to talk about that one yet, unfortunately.

What Is Automotive Window Film?

What Is Automotive Window Film?

Automotive window tints are ultra-thin laminate films that protect you from the sun’s harsh glare and harmful UV rays. They also help hold shattered glass together in case of a road accident, thus reducing the risk of injury to passengers. Unlike dye-based and metallic films, nano ceramic technology doesn’t interfere with cell or electronic signals. There is a tint to fit any vehicle, desired look and expected performance.

1. Reduces Glare

Automotive window tint reduces glare, keeping you and your passenger comfortable and safe while driving. This reduces eye fatigue so you

can concentrate on the road ahead of you, and it prevents you from blinding others in your vehicle. Ceramic window tint also blocks a significant amount of solar heat, saving you from cranking up the air conditioning to combat it. It also protects your upholstery from premature fading caused by sunlight and helps keep your vehicle cool while it's sitting idle. In addition, ceramic film is metal-free so it doesn't interfere with your electronic devices or cause glare reflections.

2. Blocks Harmful UV Rays

UV rays are the primary cause of skin cancer. Sunlight passes through glass and windshields, but window tint blocks 99% of the harmful UV rays that can damage your skin. Cancer Council Australia recommends people who spend long periods of time in vehicles use a combination of sun protection measures, such as a long-sleeved shirt with a collar, sunglasses and sunscreen with an SPF 30 or higher, when they are driving. Ceramic car window film is a great addition to these protective measures. Some window tint also protects your valuables and electronics from the risk of theft by vandals who may be attracted to shiny items in your vehicle.

3. Increases Visibility

Automotive window tint is a specific type of window film. Typically, it’s made from polyester and dyes. While metallic window tint has great glare-reducing capabilities, it can interfere with radio and cell phone signals because of its metal particles. Ceramic window tint, on the other hand, has no metal particles and provides better glare reduction and UV protection. This is because it’s infused with non-conductive ceramic nanoparticles. This technology also makes it less reflective, resulting in superior performance. It’s also heat formed during installation, allowing installers to shape the film around curves. This helps reduce the risk of heat buildup on glass surfaces.

4. Reduces Heat

Automotive window tint prevents the sun’s infrared (IR) emissions from entering your vehicle and elevating interior temperatures. This reduces your reliance on the air conditioning, protects passengers from potential health issues related to hot temperatures and it prevents costly damage to the vehicle’s interior. Additionally, when a tempered glass breaks, ceramic film helps hold it together reducing the risk of dangerous shards of glass in the event of an accident. Unlike dyed tints, carbon color stable tints are not affected by sun fading and discoloration. They are also metal-free, allowing for radio wave signal clarity and offering superior heat rejection compared to other films on the market.

5. Enhances Aesthetics

Aesthetically, ceramic tint adds a sense of sophistication to your vehicle. It is a fusion of form and function that looks great, reduces glare, blocks harmful UV rays, and protects your car’s interior. Automotive window tint is a thin laminate film that can be applied to the windows of automobiles, boats, and buildings. The main material is polyester with dyes or metals added for different effects. Unlike architectural window film, automotive films are designed to be heat formed during installation, so they can conform to the curves of curved glass surfaces. They also help hold tempered glass together in the event of an accident, reducing the potential for flying shards of glass.

6. Increases Safety

When glass breaks in an accident, ceramic tint helps hold the shards together, reducing the chance of injury to passengers. It also adds a layer of privacy, making it harder for people to see inside your car, which can deter thieves from attempting to break in. Additionally, unlike dyed tints and metallic films, ceramic window tint does not interfere with radio, GPS or smartphone signals. This means you can drive with confidence, knowing that your vehicle’s technology will work correctly. Read the full article

Data Breach of Volkswagen Owners

Modern technologies are rapidly transforming the automotive industry, turning cars from simple means of transportation into highly sophisticated devices. However, alongside the convenience of digital services, car owners face new risks. Recent events involving Volkswagen have become a telling example of how vulnerabilities in data management can threaten the privacy of millions of users.

What Happened?

In early October, it was revealed that data of 800,000 Volkswagen car owners, as well as owners of brands like Seat, Audi, and Skoda, had been exposed. The incident was caused by unencrypted storage of information in Amazon’s cloud storage. It was discovered that the data was transmitted from Volkswagen’s app, which is used for tracking the car’s location and various other functions.

The main problem was that the data was not anonymized. This meant that anyone who gained access to the storage could not only see the car’s geolocation but also the personal contact information of the owner. Such a combination of data opened the door to serious threats, including stalking, theft, and even carjacking.

What Data Leaked?

The list includes:

Geolocation data of vehicles collected by the Volkswagen app;

Contact information of the owners, including names, email addresses, and, in some cases, phone numbers.

A particular concern is the lack of data protection—information was not encrypted or covered by additional security layers. Thus, it became accessible to anyone who could gain access to the cloud service.

Which Cars Were Affected?

The issue affected not only Volkswagen-branded cars but also other subsidiary brands of the company, such as Audi, Seat, and Skoda. The largest number of breaches was recorded in Germany, where the company’s main market is located. However, it is easy to assume that some data could also have affected car owners in other countries.

Security experts suggest that the problem might be related to the organization of cloud infrastructure. When using cloud technology, companies are responsible for protecting the data within their digital ecosystem. In this case, the issue was likely caused by human error or a mistake in the automation of configurations.

Amazon Web Services (AWS), the storage platform at the center of the scandal, provides developers with extensive capabilities for storing large volumes of data. However, the setup of security systems remains entirely on the client side.

Consequences for Car Owners

A data breach of this scale raises serious concerns among car owners. In addition to potential risks of privacy violations, such incidents can lead to:

Theft of the car if criminals use geolocation data;

Stalking of car owners;

Fraud based on personal contact information.

Moreover, such incidents can undermine the trust in the company. In the highly competitive automotive market, the reputation of trusted relationships between the brand and the end consumer is one of the key aspects of success.

It’s no secret that the automotive market is actively moving towards digitalization. Smart technologies, like apps for remote access to car functions, monitoring vehicle status, and geolocation, are becoming standard for most modern models. However, the implementation of these technologies requires greater attention to information security issues.
