The fact that Canada, an amateur side, had England, a professional side, not quite on the ropes but certainly having to grind out a win is both incredibly impressive, but also should get them at least part professionalism, because the hegemony the England and New Zealand have over Women's Rugby isn't particularly good
Realistically, the financial state of Rugby across both codes, and in a country with not a massive amount of interest in it, wouldn't facilitate paying players or central contracts or stuff like that.
But it's something that would be well deserved nonetheless

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

jock steve is fantastic but steve and wayne bonding over sports??? top tier because nothing is funnier to me than eddie needing to make plans AROUND steve's plans with his own uncle
wayne being really into sports is also just a ton of fun, like always listening to the radio broadcasts of basketball games and now he has someone to listen with!! eddie coming home and the first thing wayne asks him is "did steve catch up on the game this morning"
you've really inspired me i have so many steve and wayne bonding over sports feelings now o( ̄▽ ̄)o
Eddie gets home from something, he’s surprised to see Wayne’s truck in front of the trailer, he thought he was working. But he’s excited because it means he gets to hang out with Wayne for the evening! They can have TV dinners and Eddie can tell Wayne all about how great things are going with Steve.
And then he gets in the trailer, and there’s the unmistakable sound of Monday Night Football. And his boyfriend, who he saw no more than an hour ago, who did not mention this, is sat on the floor in front of their coffee table and dishing out a KFC bargain bucket.
“Hey, baby, we’re watching football. You wanna join us?” Steve says.
Wayne just throws him a beer, expecting him to agree anyway. It’s not like Eddie wouldn’t be privy to everything going on even if he did try to hide away in his room.
So Eddie sits on the couch behind Steve, accepts the paper plate Steve sets on his lap, and cracks the beer open.
Steve and Wayne get into the swing of the game, shouting at the tv, laughing at each other, saying things that Eddie can’t even decipher using context clues. Then at first intermission, Eddie very quietly interrupts to ask “who’s playing?” because he thinks that’s a question he’s supposed to ask.
And Steve launches into an explanation of the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers. And he must notice that Eddie looks completely lost because he stops, then tries again with.
“It’s like Gondor versus Mordor. We, Chicago, are Mordor-“
Wayne corrects him, “Gondor.”
“Right. Gondor. And they, Green Bay, are Mordor.”
And Eddie still doesn’t really get it but it helps and it makes him feel kind of all warm fuzzies to know that they listen to him when he rambles about his favourite books. So he sits back and devotes himself to learning the thing they love.

tbh never not going to piss me off that wales northern ireland and scotland all vote in uk general elections as if our populations combined are anywhere near even just the london area. its so stupid. our votes dont count if england decides to vote another way (proven by in the past england getting the tories in despite scotland wales and northern ireland voting non-tory by a big majority).. dont know how things will change now but it feels like being attached to a big nasty leech. like how are these guys deciding + overruling laws for us you dont even live here

Damn serpias gives no fucks, but then I remember he was there when it all happened. I'd pay to be a fly on the wall in the team mafia discord server after that event. I'd imagine a lot of them don't have the best view of gringo streamers even less after disaster of an event. It probably didn't help with the hunt and run event either. I do know a lot of ccs were annoyed with the English try hard team in that.
Like going back and seeing conter and serpias in the haunted house event is crazy after dedsafio introduced a lot of us to them officially.
Same though, I know during the haunted house event, Conter and Shadoune were already talking smack about it. Word like that spreads fast in the spanish community (love the chisme).
What's funny is that Serpias' top clip is when Sapnap won that final event in the haunted house event cause he stole the key *from* Serpias. And would you look at that, they're making out nowadays pfft
No ill will in sight heheh

Envy of the moon, utterly beautiful . A collection of stardust, shine of the dusky moon. Let's escape, just you and i, Dive into the quiet places, where rain falls and sun gives soft kisses on our eyes. The soul of poetry, Those honeysuckle-brown eyes. Our hands tangled by red strings, Lilac petals are as precious as your smile. Your two eyes outshine the constellation of a thousand glittery stars. My love for you is red as roses and as Mars. Oh, my mine! Dreamy and fine, Those honeysuckle-brown eyes.

So the drivers are being told to watch their language (even though its the broadcasters' who literally pick and choose the radio snippets, and have the ability to 1 listen to a radio message in its entirety and 2 censor the quote unquote offensive language BEFORE adding it to the live broadcast), yet a sky sports commentator literally called one of the drivers a slur during a live broadcast, never apologised for it and was never called out for it by officials, but swearing is where F1 draws the line. Swearing has got more backlash from officials than the use of a slur. Cool, cool, cool...
