#i would tag this with his name but i don't want fan blogs to rb... so... um... how to make post they are allowed to reblog

[albonoooo]

thank you for the tag @oscarpiastriwdc <3

who is your favourite driver? oscar, charles, alex. i'm indecisive.

do you have any other favourite drivers? lando and max. i'm always rooting for yuki as well.

who is your least favourite driver? daniel always. i don't really like checo either and due to recent events, carlos until someone else pisses me off more. i used to say nico h, but he's been funny lately and called nico r "rosi" in china.

do you pull for drivers or do you like teams as well? drivers all the way. as ro said: all teams/institutions are evil.

if you like teams, what team do you pull for? sigh. forza ferrari.

how long have you been into f1? a bit less than a year.

how did you get into f1? in short, thanks to algorithms. charles leclerc thirst edits started popping up everywhere and i had to investigate lmao.

do you enjoy fanfic/rpf? i wouldn't be on tumblr otherwise.

how do you view new fans? hi, hello, welcome! please leave your mental wellbeing at the door for the sake of watching this sport.

if you could take over as team principal for any team, who would it be and why?: i think i would be a horrible tp which makes me a great fit for the job description. i'd make the visa cash app rb formula one team the scuderia toro rosso again, send daniel into retirement, bring in liam lawson for the second seat, start loads of rumours and conspiracies against marko and horner, lie to the press constantly, name one of the sainz family's crusty dogs as my successor and then fuck off.

are your friends and family into f1 as well? not really. i have an uncle who does watch, but i highly doubt he has a tumblr blog and an ao3 account to complete the experience. if i explained shipping to him, i'd probably send him to the grave. one of my irl friends sends my every f1 reel she comes across, which is very sweet and i feel like i could indoctrinate her if i play my cards right.

are you open to talking to other fans/making friends?: yes, of course!

Hey there, this is re for anon who wrote about AA and RB's terfines. I'm glad somebody finally brought this up here. I'm honestly convinced you're giving Rachel too much benefit of the doubt and many of Martin's fans have been doing so for a while, so many of them very vocally supporters of trans people and some are trans themselves and seem to ignore Rachel's 'leanings' towards that.

Rachel seems to be, or at least was until the most recent deletion of her IG account, arguably very non bothered by presenting as 'gender critical'. In addition to the 'rumors' about her likes on Twitter (they weren't rumors - I was around before she cleared her tracks on Twitter and they were *blatant*. I'm trying to remember who had screenshots) , up until a few weeks ago she was following, for at least a year and even longer, accounts by terf "thought leaders" and reporters like Debra W. Soh (she no longer does, but she did a few weeks ago), Katie Herzog (still on her follow list) and AT LEAST another two French female 'gender critical' journalists whose names I don't remember but were very clearly and loudly TERF to the point of putting it in their bios. I would look every once in a while to see if she unfollowed them or not over the last year or so, because I imagined she might want to at least pretend she doesn't condone these accounts in any way. As I said, she removed all follows but the Katie Herzog one just in the most recent deletion. Which suddenly makes sense to me with all those recent different postings since she reopened the account. They're different from the older posts and it feels like she's gearing up or aiming for a different kind of attention, maybe she's hoping for modeling or acting roles. It's definitely a 'scrubbed' account this time. A feature film she wrote finished production so maybe she had actual PR remove her follow list and remove Debra Soh and the French journalists. I don't see a point saying 'she's still young'. She's in her 30s (was in her late 20s back then) and doesn't come off as stupid or not socially unaware, I'm sure she's aware that terf discourse is problematic. Maybe she honestly doesn't care. Doesn't bode well for Martin's opinions in that sense, which is why I've been distant from MF's fandom for a while, especially the 'forgiving' Rachel discourse. She comes of as far more problematic than we even realize. She's his partner and he's welcome to it, I'm convinced he's aware and doesn't care - but I do.

You see, this here ↑ is the reason why I was a bit reluctant to answer yesterday's post, why I didn't tag it. Because I knew it would attract more of ... this. I've thought long and hard about what I would write and if I even should answer at all. But you certainly made an effort and deserve an answer.

Clearly, transphobia is a huge problem and should never be ignored. That much I know. You clearly know much more about the topic. I honestly don't know any of the names you stated above. But then again, it's also not my agenda to unmask every terf on this planet. If that is yours- great. Everybody needs a purpose in life. 😉 But I don't have the time or the energy or the wish to check who follows who on twitter /Instagram and who likes what. That's not what I do and that's not something you will find on this blog.

And yes, I do give Rachel the benefit of the doubt. Does that make me naive and possibly even ignorant? Maybe. But I am also not a fan of Rachel- I am fan of Martin (which should be quite obvious xD). And Rachel happens to be a part of Martin's life. But like I wrote yesterday: people are not defined by their partner's opinion.

That's all I will say about this topic on this blog.

Just one more thing (even tho it should be obvious): I don't support any form of transphobia.

PS: I answered both your asks in one post. There really is no point to make another post about it. The answer would have been the same.

Hi! This is about the Harry Potter thing.

So, I've been following your blog for a month or two now (I love your writing advice stuff, and the random posts you reblog, it's all really cool), and hadn't noticed the potterheads dni (I dunno if it was there or not, sorry). I read your most recent ask answer about (I think most recent..), I totally get it, I don't like it when people blatantly disregard bigotry like that for the sake of capitalistic pleasures.

But where exactly do you draw the line at support? Like what counts, to you? Does fan content count? I ask because I'm about one-year strong on the JKR Sucks Train and don't, like, buy merch or stream the movies or anything anymore, but I do make some fan content for the HP series sometimes? (I've also reblogged a lot of stuff about The Game (I don't know the name of it; the one about the goblins )>_<) ) and why it's so... just So Terrible.

I'm kinda rambling but my point is--are you uncomfortable with Harry Potter fans who are aware of its issues, speak out about/against said issues, make fan content, but don't buy things that financially support JKR interacting with your blog/you?

Oh, and this is all genuine. I don't know where to put the tone indicator on longer posts like this without tags. (x_x)

i'll make a set of Official Rules or w/e for interaction right now

be aware JKR sees all interaction as support. she's openly said that she thinks fans, including fans that hate her, are supporting and encouraging her by virtue of still being fans

don't rb my posts with harry potter related add-ons or tags

please please do not follow me if you have yr house in yr bio

i don't care if someone draws the Gryffindor crest or whatever and sticks it on their wall. i do care if they actively try to get more people interested in Harry Potter. consider which group u fall into and make that choice yourself

don't follow if your blog can be considered a "harry potter blog". like, there's enough stuff there that you'd be worth following for HP content. e.g. i have a friend (@.abysslll !) who's blog is not entirely mp100 content, but would def be worth following for mp100 content

I look thru the blogs of people who follow me whenever i can, bc a lot of NSFW blogs blatantly ignore the "18+ only blogs dni" in my bio and i like to block them. if i haven't blocked yr blog it's probably so little that i didnt notice and therefore fine but ultimately i've made the choice to completely cut JKR's work from my life. so, like, also know there won't be a follow back any time soon lol (i mean this as nicely as possible)

i hope this doesn't seem harsh, but it's just. as an autistic trans guy (the group that she wrote quite a few nasty things about in her little essay) i'm not fond of JKR or her work being something I can easily stumble upon if I, say, glance at someone's blog to see if I want to follow back.
