let’s be shallow and objectifying, who’s the most handsome/attractive motogp rider, current grid and from the past, in your opinion??
so, an important caveat here is. I am a lesbian. obviously that means I'm the best-placed to give an accurate assessment on these matters and in many ways am the definitive authority... but there is perhaps a little bit of a tendency to just rate blokes highly if they meet the 'if you squinted could you trick yourself into thinking they were a woman' criterion. also not to get into the ins and outs of how sexuality works too much, but it does become more about persona for me when you've not got the same instant physical attraction? like how much are you into how they behave, into the vibes, into the complete package...
all of this obviously means that valentino automatically has a leg up as certified evil lesbian. everybody knows about the 125cc dyke years, but honestly if I squint I can still see it for much of his career (which btw is why personally the least attractive I think I've ever found him aren't any of the haircuts that everyone hates but his 2002 where he looked like 'just some guy'). shout out to his early yamaha years, definitely could pass as a lesbian. also even when he's got the sideburns I can dirtbag lesbo him in my head. without getting too much into valentino hairstyle rankings, I do also actually like his shaved head eras, it's very lean and mean. very butch realness, if you will. he's in the mancrush territory for me like he is actually quite hot
other retired riders... there's like a very specific time period where casey looks quite nice, in his early ducati years where he's wide eyed and surly and has a good camera smile but is also kinda grumpy a lot of the time. not necessarily attractive but sort of like a doe? skittish. like you kinda want to pat him on the shoulder and tell him to chill out? I think his face is quite nice to look at, but it kinda fades when he goes to honda and falls prey to 'just some guy' syndrome. he looks quite nice post retirement though, *gestures vaguely* rugged but in a nice way. I'm struggling to think of a single other retired rider I find attractive... chris vermeulen in the suzuki leathers looked kinda appealing actually. pre-valentino the sport really was 'just some guy' all the way unfortunately... maybe crivi deserves a shout out
from the current grid... uh. there's some guys I know are objectively attractive but also do nothing for me 99% of the time. marc does sometimes fall into this category unfortunately, like he's got a very compelling face but it's also too perfect? he does more for me these days!! a few more lines, bags under the eyes and all that... back in the day he did just look too much like a cross between a barbie doll and a literal toddler. I WILL SAY he's deeply attractive specifically at misano 2019 when he's got that massive grin while being booed (jerez 2005 important sister moment where valentino looks fantastic too). in general, every time he looks a bit psychotic I go 'yeah I get it' I think? like the motogp unlimited moment where joan is kinda terrified of him and marc looks like he's trying to figure out whether he can muster the energy to eat him, that really makes me go 'OH yeah now I understand'. luca I think is also clearly good looking, but again just a bit too much, he's very ooh look I'm a walking sculpture, good for him and all but also too much. I don't think pecco is attractive, but also his sister clearly does just look like the female version of him and she's INCREDIBLY hot, 12/10 girl call me, so I guess pecco probably is too? might do more for me if he got rid of the facial hair, but he does look quite... idk, soft, like I'd pat him on the head. aleix has a very firm jaw, he can definitely get it. also could be a lesbian without too little adjustment. not that this is the metric, but just saying! uh... fabio looks quite nice? when he had the bisexual leathers earlier this season he moved me, also he's got a nice voice. vinales occasionally has his moments, but it really depends on what he's doing with his hair and facial hair situation at any given time. um. that's it
#unfortunately the way this is scaled with marc and valentino is that i generally find them more attractive the more awful they're being#watching bright-eyed ecstatic malevolent valentino bound over at laguna 08 to ensure casey's refusal of his handshake -#- is caught on television cameras and shaking my head the whole time to show i disapprove#some of them would work better as lesbians imo. like martin would objectively be more attractive as a woman#i do feel like this comes across as an alien trying to figure out how human attraction works. i promise i sound more normal about women#basically i think pecco's sister is hot. every time they show her in one of those lovely red collared shirts i'm like. yes#SUCH a cute smile too ugh#//#batsplat responds#lin jarvis would make for a hot woman imo#and this is the thought i will leave you on

not by big thief is a rosquez song thank you lesbians.
"not the hunger revealing" valentino's hunger. his hunger for marc. his hunger for that tenth title. all hunger- so much of it.
hunger is what shaped his career, it brought him to great heights, never before seen. that passion, the raw need to win and make such a spectacle about it, it was moreish.
and the hunger to leave something behind- to not be forgotten. that is why he made the academy, that's why he loved marc so much from the go. he loved that there was a rider where, even when it wasn't valentino winning first-hand, he could still take credit for it because marc grew up idolising him. and he liked that when marc was winning, valentino wasn't really in contention for the championship- so it was a substitute and didn't hurt so bad. a situation where vale could still dominate, even by proxy, while not losing anything.
and the hunger for marc, which came after the hunger to be remembered. something thick and familiar- metallic, magnetic like flesh and blood. beyond that picket fence of mentor and mentee because marc did not need mentorship, didn't want it. beyond a metre's distance of friendship- never too far to reach and touch one another. far beyond love. beyond obsession? perhaps. maybe so far, even, that they toppled over the other side. missed the landing pad and soared into the ocean below. a two year free fall. but it was fucking good, whatever it was.
and that hunger revealed far more about him than i believe he ever wanted it to.
particularly in the fallout of it. when the disaster struck, valentino showed such fucking. brutal, cutting ferocity as he had never shown before. it was far beyond humiliating marc on track, it was beyond jerez 2005, laguna seca 2008, catalunya 2009. it wasn't punching max biaggi in the face.
it was a show of utter, brash cruelty. wherein he wanted to destroy marc personally. he wanted to ruin him.
that hunger ate itself- a fucking zoochosis where vale chewed his own leg off. maybe not leg. maybe arm. marc was valentino's arm. to fight and to hold.
but the hunger revealed that, for all vale's show at NOTHING- at absolute ease and effortlessness- he cared. he cared so much that it destroyed everything snagged on his bristled spines.
shrike by hozier is also a rosquez song. shrikes skewer their prey on thorns and pick their bodies apart with sharp, precise beaks. do you think the prey fights to the last breath? or does it find some comfort in knowing where it stands in the food chain? did marc?
#sorry im so tired i literally dont know what im talking about anymore#the personal destruction is very prost and senna. y#motogp#marc marquez#valentino rossi#rosquez#also hannigram

Day 14: Legend
Part of my OC-tober 2022 (that will get fucking finished in 2024 so help me god)! I keep changing between Isabel Magbanua and Isabel Makiling but I swear! The official is Isabel Makiling. Magbanua was just Isabel’s last name in first drafts, so I got unconsciously attached. Uh. Anyway. Have some Lesbian heavy petting.
“In the province of Laguna, there is a mountain in the shape of a woman,” Isabel tells her, one night, her cheek against Margie’s bare chest, her thigh between Margie’s legs, all under the pretense of washing themselves of the day’s grime in a nearby stream. The water has long since carried the dirt and blood away, and now they’re just luxuriating in the cool shallows, warmed significantly by the heat of each other. “They say the mountain is guarded by a spirit—she used to be a goddess, before the Spaniards came. Dayang Makiling is what her people call her. The mountain is her domain, a reflection of her. From the right angle, you can see her body, laid upon her side.”
Her fingers, delicately tracing patterns along Margie’s skin, travel south. Goosebumps rise to meet it.
“The ground rises at her knees,” Isabel says, wandering hand disappearing under the surface of the water to caress the sensitive backs of Margie’s knee. Her body jumps in tandem to it, like a marionette come to life, at the call of her puppeteer. Or guitar strings, vibrating under the musician’s skillful touch. Singing, like Margie sings now, gasping as Isabel drags her hand up, up, up—
“Then, the slope forms her thighs,” Isabel says, fingers on Margie's inner thigh, so close. So dangerously close—
So suddenly gone. Margie whimpers, pathetically, at the loss of contact, but is not disappointed for long, as the leg that she had forgotten about, shifts, until Isa’s thigh is pressed flush to the heat of her. Margie grinds down against it, desperately, whimpers turning into whines, uninhibited. Unashamed. Even when Isa laughs at her desperation. Even when her hand still ventures up, up, up, over the soft rolls of fat around Margie’s waist, stopping to pinch and feel and sink into the meat of it. Isabel has stopped talking for the time being, so focused is she on the twists and turns of Margie’s face, dark brown eyes nearly black with want. Margie can hardly look at her when she is like this, but forces herself to, begging without words for more.
“Then, her breasts,” says the girl, as her fingers catch on the swell of Margie’s chest. “Ample. They form twin peaks, near the end. If you look closely, you might even see—”
She pinches a nipple between two fingers. Gives it a rough tug.
“Isa,” Margie whimpers, finally finding her voice and her strength. With a quick maneuver, she flips them over, pining Isabel against the bank with a frustrated groan. “Fuckin’ hell, Isa.”
With a flick of their hips, their cores slot together in hot, sparking bliss. Bodies cradling each other so close, not even water can come between them.
"Dayang Makiling," Margie says, with her atrocious accent. Still, Isabel shivers in anticipation, their twin breaths lost in the space between their lips, mouths hanging open in a brief pause. "Isabel."
Isabel grins up at her, long, thick hair a halo of black floating around her pretty head, the rest of her barely shrouded in a liquid tapestry of moon silver. Beautiful. Regal. Just like how Margie had begun to imagine it, soaring through the clouds and looking down upon a mountain, its Lady on her back, smiling at the sky.
--
Note: Though the folk lore of Maria/Dayan Makiling is location specific to the province of Laguna, Philippines, this story itself doesn’t really take place in Laguna, but instead in Bulacan, which is in the North. Isabel’s family is from Laguna, and moved to Manila before the siege, and that’s why she’s familiar with the story of Mt. Makiling.
#stella's oc-tober 2022#estrella_marie#margie sanchez#isabel makiling#people like us#i am very bad at writing sex so this cuts off very abruptly i am sorry#just know that they are fucking in a stream and it's glorious

Halfway through his rookie GP season Valentino hadn't climbed a podium. He had come close - at Jerez and Mugello - but his next four races didn't go so well: crashes at Paul Ricard and Assen, a mechanical at Donington and a fifth at the Nuerburgring. However, Aprilia's Carlo Pernat had put his job on the line when he signed Vale, so he needed him to succeed. In August, Scuderia Carrizosa received boxes of factory-spec engine and chassis parts. The difference was immediate. At Austria's A1-Ring he finished third, 2.3 seconds behind the winner. He was still buzzing from his first trip to the podium (but no champagne for 16-year-olds) when his mother drove their campervan into the Brno paddock a few days later. On the Saturday he scored his first pole position, but he still wasn't fully confident. "I didn't expect to win the race but I was beginning to arrive in a good place, so I knew something was possible." The early laps were typical 125cc harem-scarem stuff, Stefano Perugini and the rest rubbing elbows and paint. On lap five Vale scrapped his way in to the lead but not for long. Jorge Martinez - the man Vale had brought down at Shah Alam - was on the charge. The veteran swept past and tried to make the break. Only Valentino went with him, starting a vicious duel with three laps to go. "The race turned into a big braking battle - who could brake the deepest, because Martinez was always the rider who could brake latest," Vale remembers. "After my win he gave me his hand and said, 'Fuck, you were strong!'." By then Martinez had a grudging respect for Vale, half his age. "At that time Valentino was a very, very aggressive rider, says the Spaniard. "He was very fast but also he had many crashes. Over the years in MotoGP we have seen many riders arrive who are very fast but also crash very much, like Marc Márquez. So we ask the question, will this new guy continue to be very fast but still crash too often, or will he change his mentality and concentrate more? "Around this time Valentino made this change, so in 1997 he won many races and hardly crashed at all. Also his character at this time was very different to most riders - the crazy hair and the victory celebrations - so he completely changed the mentality of the paddock." Valentino's lifelong right-hand man Uccio Salucci will never forget Brno 1996. "It was a fantastic weekend," he says. "During this period racing was a complete joke for us - we didn't understand how everything worked. On the Sunday evening we stayed in our camper and drank some beer with our parents. The next day Stefania [Rossi's mother] drove the camper and we went home to Tavullia feeling very, very happy."
^Rossi leads Martinez and Emilio Alzamora at Brno. Two decades later Vale was still fighting with Alzamora, who had become Marc Márquez's manager and mentor.
From Mat Oxley's 'Valentino Rossi: All His Races'
"I saw a young guy with dyed hair and earrings who was like Superman on the bike. I thought to myself: 'That's not for me.' At first it was a shock. In 1996 we had already clashed a few times. He touched me once, we had an argument. In 1997 Valentino Rossi made me retire. But that's not a bad story for me." "I had two reasons: one was that Valentino Rossi came and that had such a big impact. The other was that the manufacturers, in this case Aprilia, used me as an experienced rider as a technical test rider to get the bike right and then they gave the best material to Valentino. As a rider, that hurt me at the time. Later I regretted retiring because in 1998 Sakata won the title that I could have won. As a team boss, I suffered for the first two or three years after retiring because I wanted to jump on a bike and compete with my riders. That was difficult for me."
- Jorge Martinez (x)
We were a good team. And we had a lot of fun in that 1996 season. Or rather, I had a lot of fun. That was me at my craziest. I really was an absolute pest. I had no respect for anyone on the track. To me they were all the same, it made no difference if it was a veteran vying for the title, or a debutant like me. I just wanted to go fast, very fast, and if I saw an opening, I went for it. I wanted to overtake everyone, come what may. In other words, I made people uncomfortable. I was fast, but I made mistakes. Too many times I threw away decent positions. I think I must have fallen fifteen or so times that season. In the very first race, I got into an argument with Jorge Martinez. We were at Shah Alam in Malaysia. I was making my debut and had secured a spot in the third row. I started very well and I'm not sure how, but I somehow found myself alongside the leaders early on. I was cruising along somewhere between seventh and eighth position. At one point, Dirk Raudies was in front of me and Martinez just behind me. Raudies' engine seized up, and, to avoid him, I instinctively braked, changing trajectory. Martinez was unable to avoid me, hit me, and fell. That was the year in which Martinez, riding the "official" Aprilia, was heavily favoured in the race for the title. I had just upset one of the darlings, one of the "untouchables" of the world championship. I finished the race in sixth place and was quite pleased. In fact, everyone around me was pleased, we were all celebrating. Then, suddenly, I came face to face with Martinez and Angel Nieto. "Son of a bitch!" they shouted. "We're going to tear you a new arsehole!" That's when I realised they probably did not like me very much. So I slipped behind the mechanic, who was a big guy, using him as a shield. The two Spaniards were rabid, they looked as if they wanted to beat me up, so the big mechanic did come in very handy, as a deterrent. But I soon started enjoying the scene, rather than being frightened. The pair of them were absolutely furious, but they also looked so funny, in the way that only short people can look funny when they get really angry. And both of them were tiny, unintimidating in every way. I was not really worried at all.
Valentino Rossi in his 2005 autobiography, What if I had never tried it
he went on to beat jorge martinez for his first ever race win - from the rec list:
#this lesbian was straight up thinning the ranks uno#really adds something that the 125cc age profile back then was different. like martinez was 34 and had to deal with *gestures*#dyed hair... earrings... the horror the horror#'superfumi' is soooooo#brr brr#//#clown tag#oxley's so funny he never misses a chance to point out a marc and valentino link#jerez 2005: young marc was watching this...#laguna 2008: young marc was watching this......#there's also one where he randomly includes a photo of young casey and cecchinello#to point out that valentino's first rival in international racing was also the man who gave casey his first grand prix ride. real#remember this alzamora donny allegedly told valentino that marc had been mad at him over argentina AFTER the sepang race#he still makes my top ten list of people who I hold personally responsible for how abysmally that entire situation unfolded#I really don't think we as a society talk enough about how flat out insane it is that marc's manager was saying this#like are you actually insane. genuinely are you out of your blasted mind. what was the PLAN

LILIA
Honestly, I'm very torn about Lilia - on the one hand, Patti LuPone can fucking GET IT, although on the other, I don't know whether I respect her too much to smash...
I think I'd rather be Lilia's friend, so soft pass. Like I know we'd have such good banter.
JEN
Pass because she lowkey scares me a bit... I don't think I could live up to her undoubtedly high standards.
ALICE

Lesbian Sen. Tammy Baldwin opens for Kamala Harris’s first presidential campaign rally
Presidential candidate Kamala Harris held her first official campaign event on Tuesday in the must-win battleground state of Wisconsin, introduced by two-term out Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), who enthusiastically endorsed her historic candidacy. “I am so proud to support Kamala Harris for President of the United States!” Baldwin told a crowd of thousands packed into a high school gym outside Milwaukee. They roared their approval. Related Kamala Harris sums up just how bad Project 2025 is in just 9 words She had the crowd chanting, “We’re not going back,” referring to a second Trump term. The kickoff rally in suburban West Allis came just 48 hours after President Joe Biden abandoned his run for a second term and endorsed his vice president. In the two days since, Democrats have raised an astonishing $256 million in support of the Harris campaign, with half that number from small donors. Your LGBTQ+ guide to Election 2024 Stay ahead of the 2024 Election with our newsletter that covers candidates, issues, and perspectives that matter. Subscribe to our Newsletter today In their remarks, both Baldwin and Harris highlighted the importance of Wisconsin on the electoral map. “There’s a reason she’s kicking things off right here in Wisconsin,” Baldwin said of the presumptive Democratic nominee. “Because we are the battleground state. Wisconsin will likely decide who occupies the White House and which party controls the United States Senate. No pressure!” In 2016, Hillary Clinton lost Wisconsin to Donald Trump by less than one percent of the vote, a tipping point in the election that handed Trump the presidency even though he lost the popular vote. In 2020, Biden flipped Wisconsin blue by an even narrower margin. Baldwin is running for a third term in the Senate against Trump-endorsed MAGA candidate Republican Eric Hovde, a multi-millionaire who first ran for the seat in 2012 but lost in the primary to former Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson. The wannabe pol considered a second run against Baldwin in 2018 but demurred; same for a run against Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers (D) in 2022. After winning the backing of the dysfunctional Wisconsin GOP, Hovde earned an endorsement from Trump. Hovde, 59, has said he’s “totally opposed” to abortion, wants to repeal the Affordable Care Act, and wants to ban trans athletes from sports. Since his first Senate campaign, the far-right Republican has grown a statement-making mustache and taken up part-time residence in Orange County, California, where he owns and runs Sunwest Bank, opening himself up to carpetbagging charges by Baldwin. “Eric Hovde owns a $3 billion California bank,” Baldwin told rallygoers. “He owns a $7 million ocean-view mansion in Laguna Beach, and he’s actually been named one of Orange County’s most influential residents three years in a row. Folks, we have a Green County, we have a Brown County. We do not have an Orange County in Wisconsin!” http://dlvr.it/TB1t75

Charice Pempengco Now: Being Jake Zyrus + Amazing Talent
Charice Pempengco, popularly known as Jake Zyrus, rose to worldwide fame when her vocal chords astounded many. The Filipina was given the chance to work with the likes of David Forster, Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli - up until she became Jake Zyrus, and laid low. Where she is now?
It's her birthday and we are beyond interested.
Pempengco aka Zyrus is a Filipino singer and actor with an estimated net worth of $6 million.
In Laguna, Philippines, Charmaine Clarice Relucio Pempengco was born.
As a child, she began her career in 2007 by entering in singing contests to help support her family. In 2005, she placed third on the popular Filipino singing competition show "Little Big Star." When a fan uploaded footage of her singing to YouTube, she began to garner significant exposure.
Her performances in Sweden drew the attention of Ten Songs/Productions, and she subsequently recorded her first demo. Since then, her career has soared, and she has performed all over the world and appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres Show and the Oprah Winfrey Show.
Why Coming Out as a Lesbian Was NOT Enough
In 2013, Charice came out as a lesbian. In 2017, she acquired the name Jake Zyrus and announced her full transition to male.
Jake Zyrus disclosed his former identity as Charice Pempengco and the agony he endured while concealing his gender identity prior to coming out as a transgender man.
"When Charice was found, sitting onstage with David Foster & Friends, Oprah (Winfrey), and Ellen (DeGeneres) was one of my [pains], she revealed in an interview with Toni Gonzaga's YouTube vlog, June 30. Why? Because he knew the magnitude of those opportunities and did not want to appear ungrateful
He noted that he continuously grappled with how he defined himself, even before his music industry career took off. "It was always there - the difficulty and sorrow of concealing oneself, he explained, which many members of the LGBTQ can relate with.
Zyrus described how his confusion damaged his mental health and the moment when his troubles drove him to commit suicide.
When he considered coming out, he learned that he mostly concerned the acceptance of others, namely Foster, Winfrey, and his followers. Following his third try at sucide, he recalled that Foster was one of the first individuals to see him in the hospital. He noted that Foster did not force him to wear a dress for their performance later that day, which he now deems significant. Check the performance below:

He ultimately found self-acceptance and is now certainly, much more at peace with things.
