Not a rwde poster just like to lurk but YOURE SO RIGHT ABOUT THE HAZEL YANG PARRAREL WHYYYY DONT WE EVER SEE THEM INTERACT?? Like it's right there. The pararels. The. Og my god.

It amazes me how the show managed to set up literally so many perfect parallels and just never pursued the storylines that came with them. Like idk these kinda just write themselves you want a fun shounen-esque adventure, you've got four main characters, four bad guys to fight before the main bad guy, four macguffins to pursue (either the maidens or the relics it doesn't really matter tbh) and four main areas to explore. Like.

Tyrian and Blake I admit is probably the weakest of the connections with pretty much all they have in common being that they're both faunus (we really don't have much to work with in tyrian's case to be fair) but Watts and Weiss never properly interacting is something that I think will haunt me to the grave. There was so much that could be done with Watts being essentially exiled from Atlas' elite and Weiss' gradual realisation that her dad objectively sucks and ruins peoples' lives but instead the final confrontation with Watts was given to Ironwood of all people for. some reason.

LONG LIVE l Esteban Ocon

(a/n): omg the first installment of the Taylor Swift Collection. I'll admit this one was a bit of a stretch but I just had this idea and needed to get it out! I hope you enjoy it and would love to have your feedback <3

disclaimer: in this au, the reader plays the role Zendaya plays in the franchise.

summary: Esteban Ocon (aka the biggest Spiderman fan, according to himself) tried to bribe his girlfriend, gave her the silent treatment, he called her out during race weekends, but Marvel was just too good keeping their secrets. (actress!reader).

i) I said “remember this moment” in the back of my mind.

July 2018

When Esteban told his friend Lance that after months of liking every post and Instagram story of the actress playing Michelle Jones on the new Spider Man movies, he slid on her DMs in hopes she would answer, Lance laughed.

No, he didn’t laugh, he cackled.

It was July 2017, the first Spider-Man movie in the hands of Marvel Studios had just dropped and was a complete success, and of course Esteban had his team request a copy to the studios so he could host a viewing on his home theatre. 

He had avoided spoilers and even movie trailers in order to be surprised, most of his friends teased him about it, but he couldn’t careless, even dedicating that entire night to follow and stalk every cast member on Instagram. 

That’s when he noticed the gorgeous actress who played MJ, mysterious and intelligent on screen, and that’s when everything started for him. 

He googled her age, visited her Wikipedia page to see her accolades and projects, he even checked her dating history and the rumors surrounding her relationship with Tom Holland, the actor who played Spider-Man. 

His life went on, months went by where he silently liked her posts, just as another fan of the series and sequels of his favorite superhero, then he was focusing on the 2018 F1 Season, even as things turned ugly with not only having to worry about performing, but also with trying to keep his seat. 

Maybe his Instagram algorithm knew him a little too well when a Marvel fanpage showed on his timeline, announcing filming for the second movie of the Spider-Man sequel was taking place in London and Italy, and between the stress of training, press breathing on his shoulder about his future in Formula 1, he decided to take a risk.

Which takes him to his Canadian friend laughing at him. 

He made his way towards the Williams trailer where Lance was getting ready, not really caring that chances were he was going to take his seat at Racing Point, they were friends. That’s why Lance felt so comfortable staring at his friend in disbelief as he couldn’t stop the giggles that just kept coming. 

“Esteban, why would you subject yourself to being ignored? She’s from Hollywood, there’s no way she even knows who you are.” Lance tried to reason with his French friend, but Esteban shrugged. 

“It doesn’t matter, I know she’s probably not going to see it, but I have nothing to lose. It doesn’t even count as humiliation because we’ll probably never going to meet each other.”

Lance squinted his eyes at his friend. “You can’t have that attitude, dude!”

“But you just laughed on my face!” Esteban argued.

“Yes, because it’s my job as your friend, but at the same time I have to hype you up, you know?” Lance told him, but Esteban suspected he was just being too Canadian. “What did you tell her?”

Esteban sighed and scratched the back of his neck: “If she wanted to attend the British GP since they’re filming there.”

Lance let out a sound of approval. “You know? I think it could work out. Maybe you should find ways to drop how much of a fan of Spider-Man you are during press, you know? Just find a way, and then people will start ‘Oh, this Formula 1 driver is so adorable, he’s such a fanboy’.” The Canadian suggested. 

“How did you even think of that?” Esteban asked, but was interrupted by his iPhone going off, his engineer asking him where he was.

He didn’t get to talk with Lance again, just throwing himself on the hotel bed while his eyes were already closing due to stress and jetlag. Forcing himself off the bed to take a shower and then going to bed, checking his phone for one last time. 

His verified account worked in a weird way he still wasn’t able to fully grasp, only notifying him when other verified accounts messaged him or followed him.

And that’s what happened. 

Hey Esteban! I’m so sorry it’s taken so long to answer but ive been a bit busy. 

Attending Silverstone would actually be such a great time, is the invite still up? 

In case it is, this is my agent’s email so your people can give him the details ;)

The French read and reread the message at least ten times, not knowing if his mind was playing tricks with him, but when he read this notification, he gasped and dialed Lance. 

“LANCE!”

@(YNLN) started following you. 

ii) I was screaming “long live that look on your face”

(Y/N) thinks that Esteban exaggerated how much of a Spider-Man fan he was. They were officially dating now, so she figured it would eventually play down. 

God, was she wrong…

With the 2018 season finally over and Esteban not having a seat for 2019, he leaned heavily on her, even if he knew he was going to be under the wing of Mercedes for the time being, it wasn’t easy. 

She saw he was kind of down and with more free time than usual, plus they were still living the sweet first months of their relationship, so she surprised him with a guest pass and paper bracelet to allow him in the premises and set, leaving in on the table of her apartment while waiting for him to arrive for their movie date.

“Bebé, what is this?” He asked once he stepped inside your apartment, an envelope with his name written and an official Marvel stamp on it. He didn’t know what it was, but a grin was already starting to form. 

“Hello, Este. How are you? Did you miss me? Because I really missed you.” The actress placed her arms around his waist, shaking as his body trembled with a laugh before he leaned down to leave a caste kiss on her lips. 

“Of course I missed you, MJ.” He said and she playfully laughed at his nickname. “So, what is this?” He picked up the envelope. 

“It has your name on it, doesn’t it?” 

Esteban carefully moved from the embrace of his girlfriend and opened his gift, not even trying to hide the gasp that escaped his lips once he realized what was inside, carefully reading the letter inviting him to set, signed by Kevin Feige and Jon Watts, the director. 

“No, bebé… Is this for real?” He said with his accent getting thicker with excitement. 

“I think so.” She smiled before he kissed her, literally sweeping her off her feet. 

He knew he’d have to keep a low profile, the public not knowing yet about their relationship, the only one he had confided in was Lance, and now people in Mercedes knew, so it wouldn’t be long before the cat was out of the bag, but he was waiting for his girlfriend to feel comfortable to break the little comfy bubble they’d created.

They were in Venice when a black Mercedes picked them up at 4 AM, but he didn’t care. The street was closed and cameras were being placed, people walking all around as if it wasn’t the middle of the night and freezing. 

He knew it was cheesy, but the set lit up when she walked in. People greeted her all around, dozens of people and she stopped for each one of them, asking for their families and how was the hotel they were staying at. And the fact that he got to walk hand in hand with her, carefully carrying one of her bags, he was on cloud nine. 

But it got better. 

A British accent called (Y/N)’s name as they were approaching the luxury trailers parked not so far away from the set installed on the Italian streets. Of course Esteban recognized the accent, holding his girlfriend’s hand a little tighter. 

“Tom, this is Esteban, the guy you’ve been hearing so much about.” She said with a playful roll of her eyes, earning a chuckle from the brit as he extended his hand. 

“Pleasure to meet you, mate. I saw you during the Austin circuit, it looked sick!”

“I’m a big fan of your work, you’re the best Spider-Man,” Esteban said and his girlfriend just started to realize that maybe it wasn’t a play, he really was a huge fan. “And you’re always welcome on the paddock, just let me know.” Esteban said and Tom thanked him before being called to his trailer, telling the couple that they should go with the rest of the cast and other friends to have dinner.

“So… You’ve been talking a lot about me?” Esteban asked (Y/N), playfully raising his eyebrows and leaving a kiss on her hair. 

ACTION!

Esteban eyes followed as Peter Parker walked around the wrecked set, everything was wet and upside down, and he was in awe as he noticed (Y/N) making her way into the scene, questioning her friend if he was fine. 

Even if he couldn’t fully comprehend the dialogues or what was happening, his eyes were fixated on her, as she gave his co-star the same caring and sweet eyes that she gave him in real life, and he felt like the luckiest man on earth. 

The day was so great that they ignored the few tabloids that picked up the Instagram post of the Holland siblings, the happy couple, and other members of the cast when they went to dinner to a nice small restaurant. 

“Are Spider-Man star and F1’s star Esteban Ocon dating? We have the details from inside sources!”

 iii) When they gave us our trophies, and we held them up for our town.

Hungaroring, 2021

Every reporter went crazy when they saw (Y/N) driving a Land Rover with Esteban Ocon as her co-pilot, smiles on their faces as they pretended to ignore the hundreds of flashes capturing their faces through the tinted windows. 

They’d been dating for almost two years, but still hadn’t confirmed anything. Of course people knew; everyone involved in F1 and Marvel knew they were official since 2019, and of course their fans were aware they were together after seeing pictures of them together all the time, but no one has managed to capture even the slightest form of PDA between them, which made people still think they were friends… Very close friends. 

But there was something about this weekend that made them act more carefree, holding hands when they got out of the car, not caring if paparazzi got low-quality, grainy photos of the showing the tiniest bit of affection. 

The actress pecked his lips before he went to his driver’s room to get ready, engineers rapidly approaching him to talk a few things over. 

Time flew by and soon she was giving him one last hug and good luck kiss before he got in the car. 

“You know, this is pretty dangerous…” Esteban dramatically said, earning a grin from his girlfriend. 

“Estie, no.”

“But… I’m your boyfriend. You can trust me!” 

“It’s a secret, only a couple more months to go and you’ll watch it. Trust me, you’ll enjoy it more not knowing what’s gonna happen… Plus, I know you’re going to tell Lance whatever I tell you.”

“Is the multiverse theory true?” She was tempted to tell him something, but she always chose against it, having signed too many NDAs.

Just as she was going to answer, Esteban was called to get in the car before the race. 

“I love you, Este. Drive safely, okay?” (Y/N) got on her tiptoes and kissed him softly, like it was just the two of them. 

“Je t’aime beaucoup, bebé.” 

She became accustomed to the roaring of motors, the smell of gasoline and the rush of a pit stop, but that didn’t mean the worried butterflies on her stomach calmed down, she still bit her nails while listening to his radio and watching him overtake his rivals. His parents were the same, eyes not moving from the screen.

But today, it was a different kind of anxiety. She was on the edge of her seat, the fresh coat of nail polish chipped as everyone in the garage started realizing that they were going to win. The first for the team and for Esteban. 

She couldn’t stay seated during the last four laps, completely aware that F1 cameras were paying more attention to the Alpine garage, wanting to get the best reactions, and obviously she was there, but she couldn’t care less. 

It became real during the last lap, mechanics and engineers running to greet their driver on their maiden win.

Esteban parked the car and got out, jumping right into the awaiting arms of everyone involved, his face was one of pure disbelief, his eyes glassy with unshed tears and shaky hands.

She was holding your phone as his mom and dad went to hug him and congratulate him, wanting to immortalize the moment after so many years and sacrifices. Of course she loved his parents, but she wanted the moment to be over to hug him and congratulate him.

And that’s what happened when he noticed her. He noticed that he didn’t really know how to approach her, knowing cameras were filming their every movement and being broadcasted.

That’s why she took the matters in her own hands. Her hand went to cup his face, his arms found their home on her waist as he lifted her and kissed her. It wasn’t a pretty kiss, they were trying to pour every feeling, knowing words wouldn’t do it justice.

“Babe, I’m so proud of you, congratulations. Shit, I don’t even know what to say!” They laughed and went for another short kiss, people around them cheering. 

“You know what a great prize would be?” He asked her, gently placing her back on the ground. 

“Not a chance, Estie.”

iv) Long live the walls we crashed through, how the kingdom lights shined just for me and you. 

Sadly, Esteban wasn’t afraid to admit he pleaded his girlfriend to show him the new Spider-Man script. He tried to bribe her with silly gifts, gave her the silent treatment. His last resort was to call her out during race weekends. 

“Esteban, we are living the last races of the 2021 season and you seem alone, did you girlfriend leave you for Peter Parker yet?” The interviewer asked him laughing, making Esteban smile. 

“Yes, she is in the middle of her press tour for the latest movie.”

“I don’t remember many movies creating this level of hype and mystery, do you have any inside details?”

“Don’t even get me started,” Esteban answered, his accent getting thicker. “I don’t know anything, she has kept everything a secret. I’ve pleaded, I even spoke with her co-stars and they told me (Y/N) warned them to not tell me anything! Not even after I offered full-access paddock passes!” Esteban was  shooting his last shot to get any information, even if it meant exposing his girlfriend. 

“Interesting, Marvel is that good keeping secrets, huh? We hope to see you on the red carpet. Good luck on the race! Esteban Ocon, everybody!” 

“You are shameless!” That was the first thing Esteban heard after he picked up the FaceTime call from his girlfriend. 

“Oh, you saw it?” He asked her nonchalantly, like it wasn’t a big deal. 

“You just have to hang on a couple of weeks and you’ll see it. Babe, I have to be back with the interviews soon, but I was told you can bring a plus one to the premier.”

“Am I not your plus one?” Esteban asked confused. 

“Nah, people like you too much now. We can walk the red carpet together, though!”

Esteban smiled at the sight of her perfectly dressed girlfriend. “No, it’s your moment, wouldn’t want to steal it with my perfect height and handsome looks.” He joked, earning a loud laugh from her, his favorite sound. 

She was right, time flew by. Now Esteban was admiring as people worked on her dress and makeup. Someone was fixing his hair for one last time before they left the fancy hotel room. 

Paparazzi were already lining up outside the hotel, waiting for them. They smiled before the valet got the car. She gave him a weird look, seeing a sports car, very similar to his Alpine car, with no one inside. 

“You didn’t think I was going to let someone else drive you, right?” He offered his arm and opened the door for her, helping her with the dress and leaving a kiss on her hand before walking towards the pilot seat. 

She couldn’t stop smiling, resting her hand on Esteban’s thigh during the short ride as he expertly drove, eyes not leaving the road to interlace their fingers. 

“Chérie… You have one last chance.”

“Esteban!” She stared at him in disbelief. 

“Can’t blame a fan for trying.”

Esteban would never tell her, but it was completely worth it in the end. His eyes couldn’t leave the screen for a second, too enthralled by the story being played in front of him, not even noticing the nervous eyes of his girlfriend, she wanted him to enjoy it because, as she found out during the time loving him, he was not exaggerating how much of a fan he was.

She noticed how he didn’t even try to hide the tears and the gasps during the movie, he probably didn’t notice how his grip on her hand got tighter every time a twist happened. Tears were falling freely as he watched his girlfriend on screen, playing what he thought was the saddest scene on modern cinema. 

He was the first one on his feet to start the stand-up ovation in the movie theatre. He didn’t care about anything when the lights were turned on, his only worry being softly kissing her lips while people around them were still cheering. 

“Shit, I still can’t believe he pulled it off…” 

That was Lance, shaking his head and taking a picture with his iPhone to show it at their wedding, knowing that Esteban and (YN) were endgame, even if he made fun of Esteban.

I haven’t seen it as much online these days, but when season one was still airing, I often saw criticism that the batch, other than perhaps Hunter and Omega, ‘lacked character depth.’

It was something I didn’t think too much about at the time, but now, on my final re-watch of the whole show before the final season begins (😭) I couldn’t disagree more.

Sure, as there is so much action and plot occurring during the series premiere Aftermath, there is not much screen-time remaining to dedicate towards the emotional depth of the characters.

However, I’m a huge fan of the ways writers can use unconventional methods to show audiences the traits and roles of characters; As the bad batch are soldiers in every sense of the word, I believe there is no better way to highlight their individual personalities and talents than to show it through their battle strategy.

So, if you’re like me and love both star wars and unnecessarily in-depth analysis, I present…

Aftermath’s battle simulation: How one scene reintroduces us to Clone Force 99, and possibly foreshadows later events in the series.

(Part 1)

Across all star wars projects, the empire is always presented from above (in the context of The Bad Batch, think of the broadcast of Palpatine shown to the clones earlier during Aftermath, Raven’s Peak towering over the cloud cover on Eriadu, and Mount Tantiss surging over the natural jungle on Weyland). During the battle simulation, Tarkin watches from the viewing platform above the training ground, suggesting this scene will illustrate how the batch will respond to the new power of the empire.

When the team first enter the training ground, Hunter is the only one without his helmet on - he is already more humanized than the rest of his brothers. Of all the team, Hunter is the one who looks most like a ‘regular’ clone, despite his obvious attempts otherwise. He understands the importance of humanizing himself and his brothers - when he tries to save Caleb on Kaller, he removes his helmet in an attempt to get through to him. In this scene, Hunter only puts on his helmet and regains his status as a soldier when it is clear that a battle is about to begin. Even this small action could be interpreted as showing that being a soldier is not what Hunter truly wants, whereas the rest of his brothers are satisfied to continue in the way of life they have always known.

Once the battle begins, Hunter gives his brothers no instructions besides ‘You know what to do.’ Even as their leader, he trusts his team enough to know that they will succeed without his direct intervention. Even without a clear approach in mind, they all fall into places without any preamble - showing that Hunter is correct in his assessment of the situation, and that his brothers know each other well enough to do so without guidance.

The positioning of each member at the beginning of the battle is also important- as they move to the barrier, Echo, Crosshair and Hunter go left, while Wrecker and Tech go right, as seen below.

These positions could be indicative of their current roles within the squad at its peak. For example, the split between the right and left side could represent their difference standards of morals. Hunter, Echo, and Crosshair have, at this point in the series, been shown to be the most complex and strong willed members of the team - it is clear what each one of them believes in, and each one of them is unafraid to speak up when something goes against their personal moral code. This this shown prior to this point during Aftermath, as most of the discussion over Order 66 is between this trio, while Wrecker and Tech seem to be simply going through the motions rather than challenging them.

This is not to say that Tech and Wrecker do not also each have strong personalities, but so far they are much more focused on their individual interests than the morality of their lives as soldiers and their prospective roles in the formation of the new empire.

In this formation, Hunter is caught in the middle of all of his brothers, a position he is often placed in during group shots throughout the series. In this scene however, he is closely drawn to Crosshair’s side. Hunter’s reaction to Omega has shown that he has complex feelings about children being on Kamino, likely an attitude he has formed due to his own upbringing on the planet. It can be assumed by CT numbers that Crosshair (CT-9904) is the youngest of the batch, explaining the close yet intense relationship shared between him and Hunter.

Echo is also on the left side, but remains on the outside of the group. This could be interpreted as Echo simply arriving late to the batch and their having to reform this battle strategy to include him, but I prefer to think of it as a way to highlight Echo’s continued isolation, even amongst his brothers.

The placement of Crosshair between Echo and Hunter is also interesting. Echo, who has always been very focused on rules and regulations, and Hunter, the leader of a squad who openly flaunt their ability to break them. This positioning could be indicative of Crosshair feeling torn between two places, and his emotional conflict due to the effects of the inhibitor chip.

Located on the right side, Wrecker and Tech are both much more placid and easygoing. They are both often involved in childish bickering (as is Crosshair), but these two are never typically involved in intense conflict as the others are. As shown by the batch’s first appearance in The Clone Wars, Wrecker can be quick to anger when his brothers are threatened, but is easily dissuaded from violence by Hunter. Meanwhile, Tech is attempting to stop the fight from occurring in the first place, and is seemingly averse to conflict unless he deems the situation to be inescapable without it (e.g. the cafeteria fight).

Wrecker and Hunter are technically next to one another, but there is a huge space between them. To me, this gap represents the difference in their personalities as a result of their upbringing. Wrecker truly symbolizes the more easygoing, often-childlike comedic character, while Hunter is burdened by his concerns and responsibilities for his family. The pair were shown to have a closer relationship during their arc in The Clone Wars, with Hunter joining in with the jokes and antics of his younger brothers, and assuring Wrecker that he will beat Crosshair’s kill count during their next mission. In this scene, the space between them could foreshadow the upcoming degradation of their relationship due to the rise of the empire.

Tech is also on the outside of the group, but on the complete opposite side to Echo. Interestingly, since their very first meeting, Tech and Echo have been shown to have quickly developed a close relationship, with Tech being the main clone (other than Rex) to liberate Echo from captivity. The pair being on opposite sides likely is due to their similar technical skillsets but opposing ways off approaching situations- Echo is shown to possess a great deal of tact and patience when it comes to other characters such as Omega, whereas Tech can come across as nonchalant and uncaring at times. These positions also highlight how these two are the most independent of the group, both of them having no issues in leaving to compete missions alone.

In honor of Dracula Daily starting again tomorrow, I am posting a preview of the trailer for my Arden Dracula AU, which will be posted in full during @podcastgirlsweek! Enjoy, and know that I read academic articles for this.

BEA: However old you are, wherever you live, you’ve almost certainly encountered some version of the Dracula story.

[Clip:]

DRACULA: Vell, vell, vell…. Velcome to my humble home. You must be chilly on such a cold, dark night.

WOMAN (breathily): I got caught in a rainstorm with nothing but this translucent nightgown.

DRACULA: Please, let me help you into something more comfortable. (sinister chuckle)

[New clip:]

DETECTIVE: We just pulled another body out of the river. The same as the last one. Bloodless, with two pricks on the neck.

CHIEF INSPECTOR: Why??? She was so young!

[New clip:]

WATSON: Have you figured it out?

HOLMES: It’s elementary, my dear Watson. The killer is none other than the count!

DRACULA: (hisses).

[End clips.]

BEA: Count Dracula is a stock character, a movie monster, while the original details of the case have faded out of the public memory. When he is revisited as a historical figure, the story still gets… inflated.

[Clip:]

VOICEOVER: Could Count Dracula have studied at the Scholomance, an arcane academy dedicated to devil worship and black magic? Join our team of experts as we prove that the Scholomance does exist… and your children might be on their mailing list.

EXPERT: If you study this ancient Mayan carving, I think you’ll be convinced, just like I was, that Dracula and Elvis Presley both attended the Scholomance and returned there after their time among us was over. In fact, if you do a deep dive into the lyrics of “Suspicious Minds”, I’ll argue that the “trap” Elvis refers to is none other than the school’s underground labyrinth. 

VOICEOVER: Coming up next on the History channel.

[Clip ends.]

BEA: But who was Count Dracula, really? Who were his victims? And how did one of the world’s most famous serial killers disappear so successfully that some people believe he’s still out there, over 100 years later? I’m Bea Casely, investigative reporter and host of hit podcast Arden. In this special miniseries, we’re going to peel back a century of hyperbole and romanticization to find the man behind the monster.

BRENDA: Unless, of course, the man was a monster.

BEA: (sighs) And that’s my cohost, Brenda Bentley, who has her own take on the case.

BRENDA: For as long as Count Dracula has been at large, there’ve been rumors that he’s more than he seems. Or, exactly what he seems. Victims suffering from blood loss, reports of unnatural abilities, a parasitic relationship with the lower class… is it any surprise many people suspect him of being… (bad accent) a vampire?

BEA: Yes! It is a surprise, since vampires don’t exist.

BRENDA: “If human testimony taken with every care and solemnity, judicially, before commissions innumerable, each consisting of many members, all chosen for integrity and intelligence, and constituting reports more voluminous perhaps than exist upon any one other class of cases, is worth anything, it is difficult to deny or even to doubt the existence of such a phenomenon as the vampire.” That’s from Le Fanu’s seminal vampire narrative Carmilla. 

BEA: Which is fiction.

BRENDA: It’s important to lay out all the possibilities. The fans loved the dual narrative thing we had going on last season.

BEA: (deep breath) That’s what you have to look forward to, listeners! We’ll look into the case, exhume the facts of what took place all those years ago, and settle this once and for all.

BRENDA: The Dracula debate never dies. Just like Dracula.

BEA: (intensely) We only have six episodes, so we’re going to pin this case down even if we have to stake it through the heart.

BRENDA: Aw, you are getting into the vampire spirit.

BEA: Don’t push it.

[The Wheyface Industries jingle begins to play.]

ANDY: Murder? Vampires? Ghost ships? How fantastically spooky! I’m trembling already.

PAMELA: Andy, we haven’t aired the section on the Demeter yet.

ANDY: That’s what we call a ‘teaser’. It’ll keep the audience excited.

PAMELA: Then I’d better start working on episode one. Stay tuned, everybody.

ANDY: Arden is brought to you by Wheyface Industries: the good people. So good, in fact, that we’re immune to vampiric wiles. Don’t believe me? We’re so confident in that promise that if you’re slain by a vampire after enjoying any Wheyface Industry goods or services, we’ll give you your money back, no questions asked. That’s a Wheyface guarantee.

(rapidly) This offer is null and void if you become a vampire, as you are then no longer one of the good people. Instead you will be slain by our patented Wheyface brand vampire slaying drones, all equipped with stakes and holy water blessed by our corporate priest. Terms and conditions apply.

In 1893, a series of unexplained killings shocked the English towns of Whitby and London. Blame eventually fell on a Mr. DeVille, a recent arrival from Romania better known as Count Dracula. Before he could be held responsible, he vanished without a trace, leaving nothing behind but a legend that continues to this day. But was the count one more Victorian serial killer, or something even more monstrous? And what does this case tell us about gender, race, and power in Victorian England?

Join us, won’t you? As we unravel the mystery, on Arden.

[unchataparis]

A Review of Multiplication (Part 1)

Félix look like he’s wearing wicked eye-liner in this shot.

The lyrics of the opening are "In the daytime, I’m Marinette", which implies that she’s someone different in the nighttime. But she’s still Marinette in the nighttime. In fact, most of her battles take place during the day.

These title cards hasn’t appeared in the previous seasons, did they? If they did, I do not remember. I like them, they look very solemn, ceremonious. You can tell from the title along that this season is going to be serious.

The video of the late Miraculous Team all together looks very cool, intimidating. Some of their most well-dressed members are here – Rena Furtive, Coq Courage, Vesperia, Chat Noir –  adding a strong air of fearlessness and style.

Adrien needs to star in more campaigns. The same material has been recycled since Season 1.

Félix has a Wikipage? He’s a famous person then. His last name is Fathom now? Seeing that neither Ladybug nor Chat Noir, Marinette and Adrien, reacted to this change as if it’s new news, I assume that’s the name Félix was always supposed to have.

It’s always heartbreaking when siblings don’t get along in media, that’s one of my most hated tropes. Especially if the parent is abusive in some way, and one sibling decide to betray the rest of his brethren in order to maintain that parent’s false love. I know Adrien and Félix are cousins, but the same sentiment stands. Great portrayals of sibling relations are Claire and Fleabag in Fleabag, and Evangeline and Ptolemus in The Red Queen.

What a shot.

And where were you for the last few episodes?

I don’t really blame Su-Han for not being a mentor to Ladybug. Technically, he never came to Paris to be her supervisor, he went there to take the Miraculous Box away from her. Ladybug and Chat Noir managed to convince Su-Han to let Ladybug keep the Miraculous Box, and she was meant to prove herself while he watches from afar. He stepped in during moments such as Éphémère when clearly there’s been some significant faults in Ladybug’s management. What could be criticised of Su-Han is, that, clearly, Ladybug is a child, she never would 've been able to properly look after the Miraculous on her own either way, especially in the state of her stress and no proper guidance from Wang Fu in the first place. Su-Han was setting her up for failure. Since he allowed her to keep the Miraculous, Su-Han should've remained with Ladybug and taught her how to keep it properly. It’s much more interesting to watch Marinette do her own thing without someone crowding over her throughout Season 4, but realistically, Marinette eventually losing the Miraculous Box was always going to happen.

Either the animation ran out of budget, or Stompp is really unimpressed by Gabriel.

Props to Ladybug and Chat Noir for ending the conversation with Su-Han so quickly. There was no need to drag that tedious argument out. Pointing fingers right now, punishing each other under some mythic court, isn’t going to help the solution at all. Wise words: in times of urgent difficulty, don’t put too much effort into anything that doesn’t contribute to the solution.

I don’t mind seeing Adrien’s face all over Paris, but he desperately needs some new material.

Again the decision to immediately find Félix rather than chasing some roundabout ploy is very impressive. Adore that this season has been going for the throat of issues rather than beating around the bush.

It possibly couldn’t have taken that much effort to replace these nonsense filler with an actual description. Seriously, how much effort could it’ve taken? It reminds me of Adrien’s cover issue of Style Queen in Season 4. It’s just the title, his picture, and a bunch nonsense Latin headlines. Little touches like actually writing a description would've really shown the dedication the creative team has towards Miraculous; they could’ve also included fun little tidbits or Easter Eggs here. Like – Félix was born in Oxfordshire, or that his great-grandfather is of Irish descent, or something. Some of the information seems to be accurate even if their category are gibberish. Félix’s birthday (?) is apparently the second of December, his nationality is British, and for some reason, his closet relative is listed as Gabriel Agreste.

Félix and Adrien are both aristocrats, aristocratic descents, officially confirmed. Nice.

And Félix’s father is an American billionaire! Interesting. That’ll provide a lot of material for additional shenanigans. Being American-British suits Félix, Mr Worldwide, just like how being Anglo-French suits Adrien very well. Also, Félix a chess, equestrian, and kung fu prodigy! The child is a genius. "England’s youngest graduate", no mentions on a graduate of what, but I’m guessing university. I knew it! Félix seems like the kind of person to be studious and attached to his academic works, so the fact that he’s constantly out of school, I deduced that he probably didn’t need to attend because he already fulfilled the requirements. I was right! Félix is an adept!

Their penthouse suite is so nice. Very modern and luxurious, yet warm. Someplace you can really live in. It’s sweet that Amélie thought that Félix was visiting Adrien, points to the fact that the two cousins are supposed to have a close relationship. I really hope Adrien and Félix patches their relationship in Season 5. I want Adrien to have something that’s not always tied back to Ladybug. Although, knowing the temperament of the show, I’m going to end up disappointed but not surprised.

Obligatory Big Ben shot. The Big Ben to England is the Eiffel Tower to France.

That is stunning.

Also realising that Astro Cat has aerodynamic fins on his calves.

Her suit is so glittery. It resembles the foil space shuttles are wrapped in to reflect UV rays.

I like that Marinette immediately contacts her support system, Alya, literally the only person who knows that she’s Ladybug who can offer her support rather than more problems. Just easily asking her best friend to come over and stay.

Adrien’s line "I should’ve never listened to Félix, I should’ve listened to Marinette" – I don’t like it. I don’t like the suggested narrative that Marinette is the one person in Adrien’s life that will never do him wrong and treat him nice. Don’t get me wrong, Marinette is nice and all, but a person need more in their life than just a single pillar, a single person. Adrien should have other interests and other fixations to be attached to.

This man is a terrible father, he really is. At this point, there’s no way any feasible defence can be risen for him. What are you doing, Gabriel? This is honestly pathetic, even for you.

"I don’t want to be a model anymore." "Fine." Well, that was easy.

I am very cruel. She has all rights to be upset, but the many times Marinette needs reassurance is starting to be grating. This is not a true criticism on her, it has everything to do with me. I’m just that kind of person.

"Miraculous and there Kwami?" Shouldn’t it be the other way around? The Kwami came before the Miraculous.

Marinette decides to abandon her passion for Adrien because it has been messing up her head, disrupting her duties as Guardian. Wise choice. But trying to cut oneself completely off, cold turkey, like that is bound to have suppressed and explosive consequences.

The perspective is so good? Why this random impressive shot?

Completely irrelevant detail, but I characterise Adrien’s nails as being quite long. Chat Noir powers bleeding into his human side with prolonged use of Miraculous resulting in certain anomalies such as increased sense of sight, smell, and longer nails. That’s not canon.

Aw, she’s so happy for him.

Maybe it’s my bias, but I never honestly thought Adrien and Marinette had a 'special' connection. They do have a lot of 'intimate' moments on screen, and Adrien is probably the closet to Marinette outside of any female classmate that isn’t Chloé or Alya, but there just wasn’t a foundation for a romantic relationship to me. A lot of platonic brushes, sure, but nothing that really seem to spell out the route for a once-in-a-life romance. I think it’s because Marinette and Adrien have so much similarities, not enough contrast. It’s difficult to determine what they may see in each other that they don’t already see in themselves. I’m going to be honest, and know that this is coming from a place of love because Adrien is my favourite character, but Adrien is quite a dull love interest. Literal damsel-in-distress, he doesn’t offer anything on his own. Throughout the show, he’s the pretty prize that the protagonist get whenever she sufficiently completes a certain set of tasks (only for him to get snatched from right under her nose every time due to the plot).

Adrien’s pyjamas are killing me. They look exactly like the kind of entry-level products high-end brands sell to entice low-income customers. Y’all ever seen those three-hundred-dollar sweatshirts with no embellishments other than a giant Gucci logo stamped across the chest? Yeah, like that. This child is a walking advertisement. Gabriel, let your kid wear clothes.

This is the funniest way I’ve seen someone fall asleep for some time. Instantly conked out, the lights just turn off on their own, lying over the sheets. lmao.

Today on the list of things LAURENT dislikes: Adrien’s room. Marinette’s room has her colour scheme and personality, Adrien’s room – it looks like what a distant and wealthy parent would give to their only child in lieu for being unable to spend with them. That’s exactly what it is.

The first thing Nathalie does when she comes back to the Agreste Manor is to check on Adrien, not confront Gabriel. That’s so sweet. It really shows how much Nathalie’s priorities has changed.

Madame Bustier is finally showing the pregnancy she announced two years ago. And she changed outfits, a teal sweater in replacement of her signature cyan shirt.

They just – straight out announced that Alix is Bunnix? That sounds risky. But I suppose there’s not much else they could’ve done, the secret would’ve been out eventually. By announcing it themselves, it gives Ladybug and Chat Noir a chance to manipulate an uncontrollable situation. And I suppose that if Monarch is inspiring to trying something against Alix’s family, he has to do it with the knowledge that Alix can really screw up his past and future in pre-retaliation.

Max states that Monarch has 78.95% of the Miraculous – that’s not right? There are nineteen Miraculous and Monarch has 16 of them, excluding the Ladybug, Black Cat, and Peafowl, making him the proud owner of 84.21%. What is this random statistic? Did someone in the writing room not bother to calculate it or am I missing something?

Chloé coming in with the caustic criticism as she always does, that it was Ladybug and Chat Noir’s fault for losing the Miraculous. Just like with Nathalie, I’m surprised Chat Noir is mentioned, Chloé usually treats him like he doesn’t exist. This season is really cracking down on the Ladybug and Chat Noir part of the synopsis. Queen Bee was a great hero, for the short time she had the Miraculous. She was fierce, deadly, and flamboyant. I prefer Queen Bee over Vesperia, as I feel that a Bee Hero should be full of sting and venom, quick to act, but furiously protective of her hive (team). Vesperia is like a drone worker rather than a Queen, a follower rather than a leader. Another weapon in Ladybug’s arsenal. The only two people that has ever challenged Ladybug’s rule is Chat Noir and Queen Bee, at various time, for reasons of various validity. Whether or not they were right, Ladybug does need people around her to pose other plans and disagree with her at times. A team can’t function if it’s only consisting of one person and their yes-man appendages. The whole point of having the team is to utilise different skills together and combine perspectives, rather than adhere to one view. That being said, my solution for the Chloé vs Zoé deal is for them to share the Bee Miraculous. When Ladybug needs support, send in Vesperia. When Ladybug needs sting, send in Queen Bee. They’re both good Bees in their own respective styles.

Lila coming in with a sweet, calm, and elegant defence of Ladybug. Making this argument reinforces Lila’s 'good girl' façade, and paints her as the heroine compared to Chloé’s villainy. But notice what words Lila uses: "she [Ladybug] was bound to make a few mistakes. We have to find the strength to forgive her." Very insidious, Lila doesn’t argue that it wasn’t Ladybug’s fault, and places herself as a moral centre, "we have to find the strength to forgive her." I feel like somewhere later in the season, as Lila has established herself now as Ladybug’s supporter, when she eventually 'turns against' the heroine, the rest of Paris might be compelled to follow.

Also, Lila looks really pretty here. Dimpled smile, feathery lashes. Her romper is very dark in this image. It’s usually a medium grey. I hope they keep the black. Grey is a great colour, but using it incorrectly makes a mannequin look tired, and unstylish. Ariana Grande's 2021 Grammy gown was peak ballgown fashion, I am willing to physically fight anyone that disagrees.

She mad.

Adrien looks really good here.

The music for this montage is so enchanting.

I did not expect Gabriel to make a deal with Tomoe; no, I did not see that coming at all. It makes sense, she’s just as ruthlessly ambitious as he is, and they do have professional contracts between their companies. But I just didn’t expect Gabriel to ever let someone else into his secrets. Nathalie wouldn't bother, but Tomoe seems like the kind of person to backstab Gabriel if something ever goes wrong.

Nino’s face, lmao.

Yoga is not calming for me, personally. In fact, one might say yoga stresses me out.

Part 2 here.

Quickbooks Users Guide to Streamlining Business Processes

Introduction to Quickbooks

Navigating the complexities of running a business can feel overwhelming at times. That's where QuickBooks steps in—a powerful ally designed to simplify your financial management tasks and streamline your operations. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, understanding how to leverage QuickBooks effectively can transform the way you handle your finances. Imagine having all your accounting needs met in one place, freeing up time for strategic planning and growth. With its user-friendly interface and robust features, QuickBooks is not just software; it’s a game-changer for countless businesses around the globe. As we explore its various functionalities, benefits, and tips for optimization, you'll discover how this tool can elevate your organizational processes—making life easier for you as a business owner. Let’s dive into the world of QuickBooks users and unlock its full potential!

Understanding the Different Features and Functions of Quickbooks

QuickBooks is a versatile tool designed to cater to various business needs. Its user-friendly interface allows even non-accountants to navigate with ease. At its core, QuickBooks offers essential features like invoicing, expense tracking, and payroll management. Users can create customized invoices in minutes and track payments seamlessly. Inventory management is another standout feature. Businesses can monitor stock levels and generate reports that keep them informed about sales trends. The software also shines in reporting capabilities. From profit-and-loss statements to cash flow forecasts, users have valuable insights at their fingertips. Integration options expand functionality further. QuickBooks connects effortlessly with numerous third-party applications for e-commerce, CRM systems, and more. Mobile access adds convenience too; users can manage finances on the go through the dedicated app—ideal for busy entrepreneurs or teams constantly on the move.

The Benefits of Using Quickbooks for Streamlining Business Processes

QuickBooks offers a plethora of advantages for businesses looking to streamline their processes. One significant benefit is its ability to automate routine tasks. By handling invoicing, expense tracking, and payroll automatically, QuickBooks saves time that can be redirected towards strategic initiatives. Another major advantage lies in its real-time reporting capabilities. Business owners gain instant insights into financial health without sifting through piles of paperwork. This clarity allows for informed decision-making. Collaboration becomes simpler with QuickBooks as well. Multiple users can access the same data simultaneously, enhancing communication among team members and improving overall productivity. Moreover, integrating third-party applications expands functionality further. Whether you need customer relationship management or inventory control tools, QuickBooks easily adapts to fit your unique business needs. The software provides a user-friendly interface which minimizes training time and accelerates onboarding for new employees.

Tips and Tricks for Maximizing Efficiency in Quickbooks

To maximize efficiency in QuickBooks, start by customizing your dashboard. Tailor it to show the most relevant information for your business at a glance. Utilize keyboard shortcuts to speed up data entry and navigation. Familiarize yourself with common commands that help you avoid excessive mouse clicks. Regularly reconcile accounts to ensure accuracy. This practice not only prevents discrepancies but also saves time when preparing reports. Consider setting up recurring transactions for regular payments or invoices. Automating these tasks frees up valuable hours each month. Take advantage of the reporting features available within QuickBooks. Use these insights to make informed decisions quickly rather than sifting through piles of data later on. Invest some time in training your team on best practices within QuickBooks. A knowledgeable user is an efficient one, reducing errors and improving workflow across the board.

Utilizing Third-Party Apps and Integrations with Quickbooks

QuickBooks is powerful on its own, but combining it with third-party apps can elevate your business processes. These integrations expand functionality and tailor the software to suit your unique needs. Consider incorporating tools for project management, customer relationship management (CRM), or inventory tracking. This brings all aspects of your operations into one cohesive platform. For instance, integrating a CRM like Salesforce with QuickBooks allows seamless access to customer data while managing financials simultaneously. You can track sales more effectively without juggling multiple systems. Don’t forget about automation! Tools like Zapier connect QuickBooks to various applications, automating repetitive tasks such as invoicing or data entry. This saves time and reduces errors. Explore the vast ecosystem of available integrations in the QuickBooks App Store. Testing different options will help you find what best enhances your workflow and captures valuable insights for informed decision-making.

Best Practices for Organizing and Managing Data in Quickbooks

Organizing and managing data in QuickBooks is crucial for maintaining efficiency. Start by setting up a clear chart of accounts. This helps classify income and expenses accurately, making financial tracking easier. Regularly reconcile your bank statements within QuickBooks. This practice ensures that your records match your actual bank account, reducing discrepancies. Use classes or locations to track different segments of your business. This allows for detailed reporting on various operations, helping you identify areas for improvement. Consider establishing a routine for data entry. Consistency prevents backlogs and reduces errors over time. Leverage the memo field in transactions to add context. These notes can provide clarity during audits or when revisiting past entries. Don't forget to back up your data regularly! Protecting information is essential to safeguard against loss or corruption.

Common Mistakes to Avoid when Using Quickbooks for Business Processes

Many QuickBooks users fall into common pitfalls that can hinder their business processes. One major mistake is neglecting regular backups of data. This can lead to disastrous losses if a system failure occurs. Another frequent error is improper categorization of transactions. Misclassifying expenses or income can distort financial reporting, leading to misguided decisions down the line. In addition, overlooking software updates may leave you vulnerable to bugs and security threats. Staying current with updates ensures your system runs smoothly. Many users fail to take advantage of available features like automated invoicing or recurring billing. Utilizing these tools can save considerable time and reduce manual errors in everyday tasks. Being mindful of these mistakes will help streamline operations and improve overall efficiency when using QuickBooks for your business needs.

Conclusion

Streamlining business processes is essential for efficiency and growth. Quickbooks serves as a powerful tool that can help users achieve just that. With its diverse features, understanding how to leverage them effectively can lead to significant improvements in productivity. Utilizing integrations with third-party apps enhances the functionality of Quickbooks, providing additional resources tailored to your specific business needs. This allows you to customize your approach and simplify workflows even further. Staying organized within Quickbooks is crucial for data management. Implementing best practices ensures information remains accessible and up-to-date, reducing the risk of errors or lost data. Avoid common pitfalls by educating yourself on frequent mistakes made by other users—knowledge truly is power. Embracing these strategies not only optimizes your use of Quickbooks but also positions your business for future success in an increasingly competitive landscape. As you continue exploring what this software has to offer, remember that each step taken towards streamlining processes brings you closer to achieving greater operational efficiency.

Art Hearts Fashion Kicks Off Miami Swim Week 2024

Words by Shirley Reynozo

Miami Swim Week is the ultimate fashion extravaganza, where the hottest swimwear trends take center stage against the backdrop of Miami's vibrant culture and stunning beaches. This annual event showcases an array of innovative designs from renowned and emerging designers, highlighting everything from daring bikinis to elegant one-pieces to fashionable cover ups. 

It's not just about the runway; Miami Swim Week is a celebration of creativity and inclusivity, with events that bring together fashion enthusiasts, influencers, and industry professionals. With over 30 designers, this week was filled with inspirational moments. On Friday May 31st, Designers Gyv Me Body, Bad Sisters, Pink Melon Swim, Asola Swim, Ca Rio Ca, Willfredo Gerardo, Xbqini,  Chavez Inc, and many others showcased their collections at the iconic venue as well. Each designer brough ingenuity to their swimwear collection, more than just bathing suits they represented a culture around body positivity. Breaking from the traditional expectations of what is considered beautiful on the runway. From plus size models, to middle aged models, trans, non binary, to even destigmatizing plastic surgery, Art Hearts Fashion worked tirelessly to represent the multiplicity of our existence. One may say to themselves, it’s just swimwear- how can you make an entire week of shows around bathing suits. Well clearly Art Hearts Fashion has it figured out!  

Art Hearts Fashion is the leading platform dedicated to bringing innovative designers and artists to the forefront of fashion week. Their coast-to-coast contemporary events get the most renowned designers and the sharpest up-and-coming emerging designers to the runway in New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and beyond. Founded in 2010, AHF has become a driving force for fashion, art, and entertainment. 

Art Hearts Fashion is more than just a fashion platform; it’s a thriving, inclusive community. From the moment I stepped into their vibrant world, I felt the warmth and genuine camaraderie that defines their team. The environment is less about competition and more about collaboration, creating a familial atmosphere where everyone is welcomed with open arms. Whether a model, a publicist, events staff, photographer, influencer or editor, everyone joined collectively to orchestrate a phenomenal runway experience.  

I felt embraced when I met team members such as Timur Tugberk (PR), Tara Gaines (PR) and Erik Rosete (Art Hearts founder). The space didn’t require code switching, if anything they encouraged you to show up as your whole self. This differs from my NYFW experience, as there are different rules for social conduct and etiquette. At Miami Swim Week those unspoken norms go out the window. You’re encouraged to yell at the models at the top of your lungs, which I’m sure gives them the momentum to keep strutting down the runway. This sense of belonging and support fosters creativity and innovation, making Art Hearts Fashion not just a place to showcase talent, but a home where designers, models, and fashion enthusiasts can truly thrive together.

As models strut down the catwalk, the atmosphere buzzed with excitement, setting the tone for the swimwear styles that will dominate the season. Whether you're looking for high fashion or beach-ready comfort, Miami Swim Week is the place where summer fashion dreams come to life.

Special Thanks

Chariot Racing

The chariot race stands proudly in the city’s trifecta of arena sports, and is arguably the most popular. After all, who can say what draws one to the arena, between the acrobatics, the chimera hunts, the melees, the spectacle of naval combat, or the gladiatorial bouts. But every attendant in the hippodrome is there for the day’s race. Charioteers are held as paragons of coordination, cooperation, mounted combat, and magical prowess: all skills required for the sport.

Each race consists of three teams of five racers, each riding an individual chariot pulled by up to two horses (this is almost always two, but some racers are noted to use only a single horse). Each racer is equipped with weapons of their choice, slings, lances, bows, swords, shields, and especially vials of elixir. The challenge is balancing the options of weaponry with the added weight. 

On each team, one member is designated the Center. Only the Center’s position matters in a race, representing the entire team as they race around the course for the number of laps required. The other four members of the team act to protect their Center, or to attack the opposing teams over the course of the race. A single charioteer on each team may be designated a Tail, who is permitted to leave the race track or even go backwards over the course in their attempts to disrupt the other teams. Importantly, it is only the Center themself who must cross the finish line, not their chariot, nor their horse. It is a common occurrence for a Center to arrive on the back of their horse or in one of their teammate's chariots. On some notable occasions, the Center has won without horse or chariot at all, sprinting the last distance to end. A Center is never permitted to enter the chariot of a Tail, nor take their horse.

The courses themselves vary greatly. Long gone are the days of twelve loops along a simple oval track. In an attempt for greater and grander spectacle, Aediles have seen to commissioning fanciful designs: set pieces, ramparts, banks, jumps, moving platforms, treacherous pits, barriers, arcanists to attack indiscriminately… anything that can fit into a hippodrome. Attempts have been made to incorporate chimera into the event, but that was quickly determined to be a foolish endeavor. The grander the event, the more thought and spectacle is placed in the field itself, culminating in the New Year Championship as the greatest show.

Unlike the other arena sports, there is a sense of continuity within the Chariot Race. Each race, the Center who comes in last place is barred from competing in the Championship that year. The Teams and their Lanistae play a careful game balancing who they send as their Center in each match to ensure they are available for the Championship, without sacrificing the race at hand. Unofficial betting rings keep track of which teams win more games as a whole, alongside keeping the odds for individual matches. Gambling on the Championship vastly surpasses any other gambling in the city, sometimes with bets being placed for a new season the day after a Championship concludes.

There are three teams for the race, each represented in each event and each with a dedicated and fanatic following: the Reds, the Greens, and the Blues. The Reds are generally regarded as the best and the richest color. Only a select few Lanistae are permitted to represent the Reds, and they tend to have access to the best resources and training, and have the most Patrician support, Red strategy generally involves systematically eliminating the other racers while maintaining numerical superiority by protecting themselves.

The Greens are the most popular of the teams, especially among the plebeians (though they have some notable Patrician support). They are known for lavish gifts for their own fans, including free tickets to the races. The crowds of the hippodrome are almost always flooded with Green supporters. Their strategy revolves around reckless speed, happily sacrificing their other members to protect the Center at all costs. Greens disdain the use of a Tail. Last are the Blues, whose fans have diminished in recent years, but who maintain a strong core of support.

The Blues are the most likely to attempt novel strategies, and are, by far, the team most known for effectively forfeiting a current match in order to better place themselves for a future one. It is a common occurrence for the Blues to team up with the Reds or the Greens to eliminate a particular Center from the championship, an act which is met with some disdain by fans of the victim (though not nearly as much disdain as the Reds and the Greens have for one another).

Color partisanship bleeds into social life outside the tracks, and many friendships and business partnerships are founded on shared adherence to a team (or broken by a difference). For plebians, team preference is considered more of a measure of character than political faction. There is always some political upheaval when a notable charioteer joins a school of a different color. And when a Lanista switches Colors, bringing all their students with them, there can be outright riots.

Of the three arena sports, Chariot racing is, by far, the least deadly. Despite the violent attacks against one another, the goal is incapacitation, not death. It is very rare (but not unheard of) for a charioteer to perish outright, and career ending injuries are not particularly common either. Far more frequent is the death of the horses, and it is a rare race when a chariot is not completely demolished.

Formula One and FIA reveal 24-race 2024 F1 calendar

Formula One and FIA reveal 24-race 2024 F1 calendar By Balazs Szabo on 05 Jul 2023, 15:54 The FIA and Formula 1 have announced the calendar for the 2024 FIA Formula One World Championship, approved by the World Motor Sport Council. The calendar features 24 races and begins in Bahrain on March 2 and finishes in Abu Dhabi on December 8. The 2024 F1 season is set the kick off in Manama with the Bahrain Grand Prix with the Sakhir round having received an unusually early spot. Following the season-opening race, the sport will head to Saudi Arabia with both the Sakhir and the Jeddah races set to take place take place on a Saturday. This decision has been taken to accommodate Ramadan which begins on the Sunday of the original Saudi Arabian race weekend. Formula 1 has been eager to move towards greater calendar regionalisation, reducing logistical burdens and making the season more sustainable. By moving Japan to April, Azerbaijan to September and Qatar back-to-back with Abu Dhabi this calendar creates a better flow of races in certain regions, and this work will continue while being realistic to the fact that as a world championship, with climactic and contractual constraints, there will always be travel required that cannot be completely regionalised. Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula 1, said: “I am delighted to announce the 2024 calendar with 24 races that will deliver an exciting season for our fans around the world. There is huge interest and continued demand for Formula 1, and I believe this calendar strikes the right balance between traditional races and new and existing venues. "I want to thank all of the promoters and partners for their support and effort to achieve this great schedule. Our journey to a more sustainable calendar will continue in the coming years as we further streamline operations as part of our Net Zero 2030 commitment. We have plenty of racing to look forward to in 2023, including the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix, and our fans can look forward to more excitement next season.” Mohammed Ben Sulayem, President of the FIA, said: “The planned 2024 FIA Formula One World Championship calendar, that has been approved by the Motor Sport Council Members, demonstrates some important steps towards our shared goals. "We want to make the global spectacle of Formula 1 more efficient in terms of environmental sustainability and more manageable for the travelling staff who dedicate so much of their time to our sport. Stefano Domenicali and his team have done a great job to both bring in new and exciting venues in emerging markets for Formula 1, and stay true to the sport's long and remarkable heritage. Each race can only happen thanks to the collaboration between the FIA, FOM, the promoters, and the host ASNs who bring together the thousands of volunteer marshals and support personnel so that we can go racing, and as we forge ahead into the future we must ensure that our priorities grow and develop with the needs of society and what is best for our sport, our fans and our environment," concluded Ben Sulayem. via F1Technical.net .

How are Sports APIs Playing an Essential Role in Fantasy Sports Leagues?

Fantasy sports have taken the world by storm, and it’s only getting bigger. Now more than ever, with the proliferation of mobile technology, people are playing these leagues all over the place. You don't need to be a hardcore fan or know an enormous amount about your league's rules and regulations to enjoy it. Whether you’re a casual player or a super-dedicated one, everyone can play in this thrilling new world of sports. However, if you’re just starting to dabble in the realm of fantasy sports, you may not know some of the best ways to use apps to make your experience more enjoyable.

Fantasy sports have grown from a niche pastime to a billion-dollar industry in just a matter of years. The rapid expansion of the digital landscape has opened up new ways for people to participate in the ever-expanding world of fantasy sports. Apps are playing an essential role as they help make it easier than ever for users to keep track of their fantasy teams. Whether you’re in charge of drafting the players, managing a roster, or monitoring progress throughout the season, having access to your own personal app is essential if you want to stay on top of things. By now, it’s clear that the future of fantasy sports lies in the digital realm.

But how do these apps function? It is important to know that sports data API and fantasy sports leagues are co-dependent. Fantasy sports cannot come into existence without sports API solutions backing up their results. Read on to know more.

Fantasy SportsFantasy Sports Data Company

Fantasy sports are a type of competition in which participants create imaginary teams from real people (e.g., professional athletes) and compete against each other to win money based on the outcome of real-world sporting events. The concept of fantasy sports is to use a combination of real sports knowledge and imagination to score points against other participants. As a result, the participants do not need to know anything about real-world athletes, their statistics, or their real-world performances. Many fantasy sports leagues are conducted online, and participants draft teams of real-world athletes who are then selected to play on virtual teams. Contests are often held on a weekly basis, and participants compete against one another to select winning teams.

What is Fantasy Sports League?

Fantasy sports leagues use a site or application to host a fantasy league for participants to join or create their own private league for a group of friends or family members to participate in. Participants create teams of real-world athletes who are selected by the league commissioner to play on a virtual team. Fantasy league participants compete against one another to select winning teams based on set scoring rules. The participants might not only select the players to be on their teams but also select the positions for their teams.

How to build a Fantasy Sports website with an API?Live Sports Data Feed Provider

There’s no better way to bring a new wave of players than with a fantasy sports platform API. Simply put, an API is a set of instructions that software developers use to create applications that pull in fantasy sports data from various outside sources, such as a fantasy sports API, and display it in ways that are convenient for the users. There are many different kinds of fantasy sports, but the most common is to draft a team of real players and try to predict their future performance.

With an API, you can use the data from a variety of sources to help you build out a custom website that helps users make their picks. One can pull in data from social media accounts, stats from outside sources, and even data from player contracts. With this information, you can build out a custom website that helps users draft their teams and predict the future performance of their players. However, it is always tough and time-consuming to figure out such technical jargon on your own. That is why most leading fantasy sports leagues go for a reliable sports data provider.

Data Sports Group provides you with an easy-to-use API to integrate external data and allows you to easily and seamlessly add data sources, such as game results and statistics, player information, scores, schedules, and more. By integrating external data into your FSL, you can improve the user experience for your users and create a better and more engaging experience for them. You can also use external data for predictive tools, such as generating a probability of each player’s future performance based on historical data.

Once you’ve chosen an API to use in your fantasy sports league, you need to get your website set up to access the data. This way, you can manage your APIs, monitor errors, and have greater visibility into all endpoints. With APIs, you can also use user-friendly tools to manage your endpoints.
